San Francisco was an off the charts night, what great energy in the room. It needs a longer review and one will be forthcoming on JamBase. So, I'll write a shorter review of a lesser, but also great, show, because it's fresh in my mind. I don't think anyone taped the show, so these words could be all that remain from a night at SoHo in Santa Barbara.
I thought the show at SoHo was great, different than any other show this tour. About two minutes into the show, the power went out in the entire place for 20 minutes. People brought candles up to the stage, used cell phones as flashlights, and all the while, Andrew continued to pound the skins, creating some sick beats while Marc and Brad both jumped on the grand piano that was there, it turned out to be an amazing improv that they brought back around when the lights came back on. Songs included a nasty Fuji, one of the best in a while, some new numbers like "Fear of Falling" and "Chasing Rabbits" plus the return of "Chicago" and "Back in 15 Minutes" as well as a grand piano "Weight of Solomon" encore. Santa Barbara is a nice town. Odd, but nice. see you tonight in LA or tomorrow in SD. -ted --------------------------------------- ** Theslip.net just got better - http://www.theslip.net ** Web archive at http://email.theslip.net ** To unsubscribe: Send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'signoff theslip' in the body of the message
