Seen about 200 shows now and I gotta say, this one was easily among the most, er, uncomfortable. Atlanta was pretty good, and I caught the Polaris tour closers (enjoyed those) but Walnut Creek was a certifiable dud. Band seemed to be struggling, in several respects. There have been other duds (OK City Zoo comes to mind) but this one felt rough in that late 1.0 kind of way. A lot of highs and lows in '99 & '00. Truly great shows, some of my favorites, and then shows that made you think things were unraveling. We're truly lucky to have the band and the level of play we're experiencing now.
