Get me with Fuji (opener)
this one has a real abstract opening segment. it reminded of old slip shows when they noodled around for a bit, setting a mood before the opening tune. it took 5-10 minutes before the fuji melody emerged.
Acoustic vocal tune I didn't recognize.
the played 'soft machine' at some point. maybe it was here.
the 'So Dope' that followed was organized into solos much like Yellow Medicine. I didn't remember that structure in priori versions. Fine solos from all.
Poor Boy
the really rocked out the middle of this one. very impressive.
Awesome newer tune written by Andrew -- had a little reggae flavor to it, and featured great guest trumpeter whose name escapes me.
his first name is Mark.
Rhythm-a-ning
I hadn't heard this one in a long long time. Lots of trumptet
Children of December
this tune is just fantastic. brad gave my new daughter mal� a mention. she is a feb 29 baby.
Encore was an awesome version of Happiness is a Warm Gun. I think there was a quote of the Star Spangled Banner at some point -- a friend wondered if the linking of these two songs was a political statement.
i figured it was a gift to brad and andrew's dad. it was his birthday. he was probably a young stallion when this tune came out. today he is a slightly older stallion.
