The first set of 8/22/15 was one of my favorite of the weekend, and I have definitely given it second listens.
Ok, I'll bite. Which Magnaball sets would you place it above?
There is nothing to bite on. I'm not going to rank the sets of Magnaball, I thought that they were all great. I just think that it is a little contradictory and even arrogant to have a "unanimous" number one show of the year and in the same breath deem the first set not worthy of a second listen.

For me, personally, I really loved the afternoon set. Divided Sky is my favorite song as well as my middle son. I was on the ferris wheel with my kids when Divided Sky kicked it all off. That was one of my favorite moments of the weekend. I was able to catch Scabbard and How Many People Are You? for the first time. There was a Mound and a Tube. Undermind was good, the Antelope jam started going into a major key for a little bit. I'm not saying it was Tweezerpants, but by no means was it a flop or underwhelming. The playing was spot on, the energy was great, and I really enjoyed the song selection. That's what first sets are all about, right? You should give it a listen.
