QuoteOh I forgot, Remnants was epic...awesome song.

Hopefully if they play it on nye it'll get me to like it. It's pretty much the only jacket song I don't really care for.

i agree---i'd trade it for anything else--just sayin'  ANYTHING

Oh wow!  I love Remnants.  One of my all-time favorites.

QuoteThis is the first of almost 2 dozen clips I took from the two shows. They are shaky ( some more than others ) but what can you expect
from a guy with a pretty decent buzz going, and having one helluva time?

Some are better than others, as I'm sober going over them know, the wide angle shots came out much clear(er) than the ones focusing on
any one random person or part of the stage.

Anyhow, I'm sure these will be appreciated in one way or another.

These are great Mike! It was a blast running into you and Taterbug at the show on Sunday. Thanks for letting us invade your airspace towards the end of the show! What an awesome night!!!

Yo foxtrot,  It was cool to meet you and your lady ( who I can't remember her name right now, at the time I think I  forgot my own name  :) ) .. What a show, I absolutely loved the booth seating we had.  We had a waitress and plenty of room to get up and boogie.  You picked the right show to go to, what a fuckin setlist.  Don't get me wrong, nite 1 was also awesome but 2 was awesomer.  Let me know when your band is playin in the area, I think Jernigan gave you my address.  Your more than welcome to invade my airspace anytime. To bad we didn't cross paths earlier in the show and you could of come up and partied more with us.  later, Tater

Seriously why are your reviews always so awesome?? Reading through your notes makes me feel like I'm in those moments when I anxiously await the next song and the initial rush when it starts.  :)

P.S. Still jealous about the Chicago setlists...

ms. yvon

wow!  thanks for the good words, all!

maybe i'll post a thread here, too.  my write ups are a bit long and get swallowed up pretty quick in a fast moving thread.

ok.

i'll do it!  usually i write them here, then post them on via chicago.  i have to edit all the smilies i use here to match there. this time its the reverse.

i'm up to it!

Quoteturns out the couple next to me were posters on the mmj forum. (about 3 songs into the set she commented, "can you believe they opened with "at dawn?!" i was so excited to be next to someone like that at a show!

hehe, it was *awesome* being next to you at that show!!

I don't know if you noticed, but a few seconds after you slipped back into your spot, I switched spots with my hubby so there would be *two* crazy dancing people next to each other instead of one dancing person--one stoic person--and then another dancing person.

Good times  :D

i did!  for a moment i thought maybe it was b/c i was bumping into him or something, but then forgot about it.  glad it was a positively motivated move!

*note to self: petition riny for a gif of a dancing smilie...or that dancing banana.  that would be fab.*
