Review by Bob_Loblaw

Bob_Loblaw The best show yet of this tour!

Things are gradually coming together jam and set construction wise!

Taste is a nice ripper to kick things off. The jam after is a super weird one, very nice and cohesive and of course a pretty good segue into Cities. Fish is all over cities although its pretty compact. Horn is pretty powerful. Ain't love funny is a pretty good sequence. The segue into LxL is just amazing so seamless, Lxl is still slowly growing. Another Chaotic I Don't Care. Antelope is strong as always to cap this pretty strong first set.

Bowie opens the second set and it's fairly strong. They stretch it out a bit and it is a little too noodley for my taste, but still has the weird & intense elements that Bowie should have. Ghost little by little gets more and more jammed out. This one has a nice groove. Trey is on fire at the end of it. Bye Bye foot although a slow ballad really works in this mid set, makes me wish they'd give it a spin again. Twist has a nice jam, first with Mike in the lead and then it mellows into a nice slow groove. Julius is strong.

Very straight forward encore.

Overall 2 pretty strong sets with a lot of interesting things to offer. I give this my 1st 4 star of this tour.
