haven't gotten it yet... just found it this morning... I can tell you this... it was cooking along.. so it'll be more than done when I get home... I can give it a listen then... (course, by then, you'll probably already have it...)

Don't know which taper this was... there were 2 of them there.. one directly in front of stage and one in the glorified "sweet spot" {as I've seen written about the north star bar} directly beside the sound board... Maybe that will be in the notes, but currently, I'm not sure.

Good times in Philly! Big ups to our gracious hosts, Joe and Caroline, for a wonderful weekend in Jersey.

The show on Friday was a complete drunkfest... I have never seen so many kids in a bar schwill so much booze (myself included). Tapers forgetting to start decks (myself NOT included), freaks passed out on the couche upstairs (my friends NOT included)... the bar felt waaay oversold... but it was still a great vibe inside, despite the soggy weather outside. It was fantastic to meet some new faces including Craig and Chip.

Marco McHottie and Joey Bam-Bam seemed pretty pumped overall; it was an end of tour gig and Scott Metzger came out for the encore for a couple requisite Zep tunes. The next shows will be CD Release gigs in The City and Burlington. Can't wait for Thursday at ROTHKO.

EDIT 4/4 @ 4p: I updated the heder pic... the beer bottles and rain above the bar at The Northstar in Philly... more showpics can be found at the gallery: http://gallery.mikewren.com/duo2005-04-01EDIT 4/4 @ 11p: The torrent is up; Snatch it here.

Check out his picks... Phrazz could have been one of the guys on the couch.... 8) (incidently.. you need to post some pics phrazz)

thanks for the info and link pat. i was really worried who the taper was... little story: so the three amigos roll up from bmore/dc travelling anywhere between 60-90 mph, like a jet ski cutting through the ocean that was I-95. after we get lost and seem to go around the same loop over and over we stumble apon our hotel. toss our bags into our kick ass suite (thanks phrazz), slam beers, and hop into a cab.

roll into the north star with its usual strange mix of a crowd, college kids, indie/tatoo fetish people, old heads, lushes.. just in time to see the duo setting up. yes! to the bar! more beers, and a nice chat with our best friend fun guy. the show begins.. i struggle up to a good spot near the stage. let the groovin begin. i look around to see who my neighbors are, well heres the dude to my right:

<img src=http://gallery.mikewren.com/albums/duo2 ... 01/aax.jpg>

this dude, if you notice, has mics on his hat, was completely trashed/tripin. while wearing his sunglasses the entire show, would randomly hand me his beer and start streching out arms and back, bumping and poking people. hillarious. during his yoga, the dude would drop his mics! this happend easily 4 times in the first set. well i didnt see him anymore after the first set, b/c during the break, i had to get refreshed and decided for the second set that the balcony was the best place to rock out. afterall, you can stand still while led zep is screaming through your skull.

spring tour begins with a bash.
