Again, this is not to be a wet blanket for the sake of being one - moments like the LA Slave and YEM show that the band has the capacity to fire on all cylinders when everything gets dialed... Just surmising at the reason behind the feeling and time being noticeably off here and there.

Last note - I think Page has just been phenomenal thus far this tour... ridiculously good.[/quote]

Thank you for your statement regarding 'firing on all cylinders," as well as the even-more true statement that Page has been super inspired in these last few tours. So- if one looks at this mathematically, People say Trey, Mike, and Page (I will, too, whisper that Fish has always been the driving force of this band) are all on a hitting streak, this makes this an AT LEAST .750 average!

Tours starting out this good (I have not listened to Austin I as of now), One - Remind me that I am so fortunate to be enjoying this time in our lives; Two - Make me so grateful that I will be at 75% of the next 4 shows; and Three - am impressed with the way y'all have words that fit your experience with this band.

BRAVO to y'all!

I understand my experience more through your explanations. WOOP WOOOP!

Keep on perceiving it all! I insist!
