Very good review, @nichobert. Agreed with just about everything you said. Truly sorry about the loss of your dog - my dad's terrier passed in January (I just found out about it this month, because he didn't want to burden me with the news when it happened and only got around to telling me when I asked about her) and it is a truly wrenching emotional experience, no bullshit. Hope you're able to get a new dog; no family should be without one.

Is it possible to agree totally with what @waxbanks said about Sand and still enjoy the song anyway? They're not going to stop playing it (or Jibboo, or Meatstick, or...), so if they do play it and I enjoy it and it doesn't fuck up the set's flow (or, in JB1's case, helps transition into that GODDAMN gorgeous Golden Age), I can't really complain.

I also don't really see how you could listen to the second set and hear Guns and fucking Roses. Shrug.
