Just a quick note for now on last night's show at Ziggy's. It was
incredible! They played for 2 and a half hours (the longert show I have
seen them do) and played everything I wanted to hear. This was my first
time to hear "The Goose" live and it was great! The band is as tight as
always. John Stewart played the hell out of the drums. I thought they
were trying to kill him with "Monkey Dick" it was so fast. And Spacey T
sure seems to be enjoying himself a lot more now and seems very
comfortable on stage, laughing and singing along. John McKnight tore up
the keyboards and trombone and as for Norwood, Angelo and Dirty Walt,
all were as funky as ever. Walter was the most animated I have seen him
in a long time. I have his setlist from the show at home and I will post
the entire list later for anyone interested. As a side note, I spoke to
Angelo briefly before the show and he said he recognized me so I was
thrilled considering in this part of the country I only get to see them
once a year usually.
Anyone who doesn't make the effort to see this tour is going to regret
it.

The crowd was not as big as I would have liked and the pit wasn't big
enough for Angelo to attempt surfing. But this was the first night of
the tour and not very heavily promoted so hopefully the crowds will get
bigger and better.
GO SEE THEM LIVE!
