Title: snoe.down roll call
Post by: Igziabeher on March 21, 2006, 07:38:09 am: It was a great weekend all around. moe.\'s Friday night sets lacked a little focus to me, but they totally made up for it on Saturday afternoon and night. Nice pic of Frank sporting the helmet, he came to our house Friday night until Saturday morning and woke up to go back to work, asking me, joe and mike if we ever sleep. Which of course, we don\'t. I caught the Gordon Stone set at Whiteface on Friday and Wiley Dobbs on Sunday, which were both fun. Mexico w/ Nate Wilson and Gordon Stone and Deal w/ Nate and Reid Genauer on vocals were awesome. My personal highlight of the weekend was the Bearsong at Whiteface. They totally butchered it on Friday and came back and played a smoking version on the Mountain which totally redeemed their Friday night issues. Saturday night was my 90th moe. show, so I should be at 100 by about moe.down time.

Saturday afternoon set weather report: 18 degrees with 20 mph wind gusts (feels like 4 degrees).
you try standing still holding a camera for an hour and a half in that! At least the fans got to dance and drink themselves warm, or run inside. Call me whatever you want, it was cold!!

Post by: FrankZappa on March 20, 2006, 12:01:23 pm: ah, lets see:

thursday - It\'s pretty damn cold up here. I\'ve never been in the mountains in the winter before. It snows all the time but never accumilates. Soundcheck included enter sandman and don\'t fear the reaper, although the latter was never played.

Soul Live had some great grooves, but the jams never seem to go anywhere. Great band for about 30 mintues before you get really bored. During the moe set Al climbed up on the monitors like a rock star. When he jumped off, it pushed the monitor into the pit landing between Josh and myself by mere inches. Al fell on the ground and played guitar on his back for a while. Chuck followed. A monitor is alot heavier than it looks when you lift it back over your head to put back on the stage. During one of the jams, Rob went and sat down behind his amp for a good 5-10 minutes. Also, having never heard them, lazarus and bear song are both great tunes. There was some latenight band at wiseguys. Ryan something or other. They sounded just like the breakfasts\' love lake jam when I walked in. Spot on that I thought it was a cover at first. I signed up on the mailing list.

saturday afternoon- verizon stage on the side of the mountain at white face. Great turnout. The band had heating ducts pumping hot air onto the stage the whole show. Talking with rob afterwards, he said he kept checking between songs, but his bass never loss tune at all. It was **** FREEZING!!!!!! Chuck Al and Rob had fingerless gloves. It was so cold it\'s hard to describe. Your thighes went numb first and took the longest to warm up. Chilled to the bone took on a whole new meaning. Cori called me not knowing I was in placid and asked if I wanted to go to sallys that night. At that time, I would have gladly traded places.

Saturday night - Assembly of dust is pretty good. Everyone orchestra with fishman et all was great, but was alot of free form jamming. Not for everyone. Fishman sat in on drums for the percussion solo section of brent black. I was right behind the kit shooting for his whole solo. After his solo he looked right down at me and laughed. Then as Vinny ran back out he took a nasty spill climbing back onto the drum raiser, but because he was behind the kit no one really noticed. At the aftershow, fishman was surrounded by the ladies :P
