I say this every time but, best show ever.Cholly, behavior,pressure, godzilla, babyhead, a new,new fast one, ugly,smim, lemon merange (deon did a tastful use of ghost notes at "you can take away the beat...", did fish do that live?) 

The crowd was awsome and HUGE.Every one came out, like it was new years, the new 9:30 club is a big place too. They played for 2 and one half hours. It felt like 70 minutes, cause I danced the whole time. Gotta say I didn't pay half the attention/concentration I usually do cause I had just returned from "yea, tho I walk from the valley's of Memphis, Nashville, Cooksville, knocksville, and all those fucced up places. 

There were many firsts for me this time, Norwood and Angelo, looked completely sober all night. Walt went all the way to lights on, with out saying "All You weed smokin' mother fucker's..." and his only reference was damn funny. He's said "I think even Don and Marie puff a little. Even tho, it's kinda early they probaly get that wake n'Bake in." 

Angelo said a thing I thought was real brainish "This song rock star is about our frustrations with dealing with our own industry, and I understand it's kinda not YOUR greatest concern as y'all are tryin' to party and be away from your problems. But since WE DO have to deal with it our expressions come out here and hopefully you can include it in your night of entertainment."

Last night's show was the bomb. There's a new energy that's been
missing for a while. Deion, Spacey, and John bring new blood. Angelo,
Norwood, and Walt are recharged! This was the TIGHTEST version of Fishbone
I've seen in a long time. A bud of mine had a good analogy. He said the
Fishbone from 1996-1998 was like a Mustang GT with some new parts, but well
over 100,00 miles. The band we saw last night was like a brand new Lexus.
When I saw them in T-O, they weren't the main attraction(bike race
tournament). Last night was in front of their people, and it showed. Live
crowd, pumped up band, loud-ass sound system.......damn, my ears are still
ringing. No bad audio mix ala Donny and Marie/Magic/Viva Variety, cause for
once everything was just right. Another motivation for the high octane
performance could have been that Gaston was video taping. That's right.
The GaSToN. Seems that the most dogged out webmaster of the '90's also
serves as video coordinator and Fishbone servicestation (merchandise booth)
supplier. We talked for a little about the website, although he didn't want
to talk PC's, and there is a progression that most people haven't seen to
appreciate. He says that they started out with a 486 PC with 16M RAM, and
are getting stronger every day. He did point out once again that the whole
unuttednations project was a collective effort and welcomes any
contributions the fans want to give up (bitching about how you would do it
differently doesn't count). And he's real tight lipped about the Friends of
Fishbone project, so don't ask. Ya know, having the FOF lineup being a
suprise may not be such a bad thing. He really DOES do a lot for one guy.
The only guy doing more stuff than him last night was the
drummer/singer/background vocals/entertainment for the local band All Mighty
Senators. They were a drummer, guitarist, bassist, and FIVE horns. I don't
know what the 9:30 Club pays, but they had to split that little bit of money
EIGHT ways. And to be honest, only their drummer kept your attention. Like
Diane said last night, they were a one-man band. The other opening act was
Clones of Funk, who were from Annapolis MD, doing Funkadelic
(pre-Parliament) covers. They were really good.
As far as what they played last night, I remember a few, Diane and
Rob will have to fill in the rest:

1) Monkey Dick
2) Ma and Pa
3) Just Allow
4) Ugly
5) Alcoholic
6) Bonin' in the Boneyard
7) A Selection
8) Words and Music
9) Cholly
10) Sunless Saturday
11) Freddie's Dead
12) Black Box
13) Lemon Meringue
14) Lyin' Ass Bitch
15) Skankin' to the Beat
16) Pressure
17) Masquerade
18) Rock Star
19) Party at Ground Zero
20) The Goose
21) Swim

Peace and Love All

High C

Angelo opened the show reading "Jah Jah on the Telephone". The only songs I can think of that High C doesn't have listed are "V.T.T.L.O.F.D.G.F." and "A Question of Life". One of the songs was also from the soundtrack for Hard Core Logo. It may be listed below and I just didn't catch the title of it.
I agree with Chris' review of the show. It was slammin'! It's great to have the full horn section back again.
