Alright, now that was a good show. The boys played a song I haven't heard in the LONGEST time...LAST POLKA!!!!!!! I was flippin'. I don't know if they have been playing this more lately or what but it was so great. So the show overall was a pretty fun and I definitely rank it 3rd of 7 shows. The boys were a little off on the musical side but the energy was there so it made up for it. Here's the setlist: DCYP-no surprises but good THEME FROM DR. PYSER aka JOE GOES OUT PIMPIN'- Haven't heard this in 3 shows...it was about time. EDDIE WALKER-Just a great song and I was so pumped to hear it live MAGIC-I just love this song so much, they could have fucked up 8 times and I wouldn't have noticed LAST POLKA- Man oh man am I glad I went to this show...If I can just see video live then I would feel complete (or something) REDNECK PAST-Good HOSPITAL SONG-The lights really made this song...It was pretty spectacular The started PHILOSOPHY and something happened to Robert's mic and bass so they didn't play it. Instead.... WHERE's SUMMER B?-Third time I've seen this live now and I think this wasn't the best version, but I'm not complaining. BOWCCL-This song is fun live. Period. (I love it anyway, but live....) JANE-Nothing special about it tonight. PHILOSOPHY (all of it)- A fair rendition of philosophy, again, I have heard better. NARCOLEPSY-Great, and well done. This is song is also about 80x better live. REGRETS-This song is almost perfect live. I saw them premiere it in chicago in may and it has gotten a lot better OAD-->UNDERGROUND- Both songs in their entirity and a good way to end the set. e: UNCLE WALTER-just very good, that's all. SFTD-Not the most energetic version they have done, but still a good one. No complaints. FOUR, count 'em 4 from the first album and Eddie Walker...who can complain about that? Not me I say, not me. "I apoligize to anyone who came to this show wearing clean shorts" Robert I will have a review and pictures posted on my webpage when I have the time...
