hey great show

they started off with a slow cumulus, not landing... similar vibe though.

thought those boys did a great job!! best wolof... ever? dare i say it? that timo fella tore it up, also it was in a different key and it sounded like timo had an idea/song to overlay the main bassline for alot of the song, it was nasty!!

i didn't hear any sorry teases!! i wish I had!!

RIP M.J.
--can anyone sendspace that slip cover of human nature?-- i have it somewhere, it'd be great to hear it

I'm thoroughly stoked for the rad song selection here...and all the new tunes mean another album won't be long. Nice to see Timo join in, as always. Can't wait to see Josh's photos!

Definitely sucks about Michael Jackson...noone can fill his shoes! Out of curiosity, I went through "Slip Covers" to find:

SlipBase wrote:ABC: Jackson 5
Human Nature: Michael Jackson
I Want You Back: Jackson 5
Man in the Mirror: Michael Jackson
Pretty Young Thing: Michael Jackson
Thriller: Michael Jackson

If you recall any others, let me know (or any covers not on that list). I try to tag songs "cover" in the Notes for setlists to find them more easily, but the data still needs a lot of editing.

that looks like an awesome show, glad to hear they threw some MJ in there!

Intro was definitely cumulus, but I think it had some landing teases as well as sorry teases.

They have done Billy Jean with Nathan on vocals as the Wedding Band. It's killer!

They did come out last night wearing white gloves and held a pose with there hand up in salute for about 15 seconds or so. I got a bit of it on video. I think the only tune I got to shoot that came out worth a crap was Wolof. Unfortunately both of my recorders locked up on my at different points last night. I think the uber bass in the Paradise fucked with the write head in the IDE drive. I lost some of Soft Machine and If One of Us Should Fall. Both of which I was filming. So that sucks.

well... if you caught ANY of wolof i'd consider it a victory... that thing was out of control amazing

Yikes, sorry to hear about the recording difficulties!

Cleantone · Fri Jun 26, 2009 12:27 pm

Turns out only my "real recording" locked up. The new 2 track flash recorder I bought and was running for "fun" actually ran out of space. I assumed it had locked up. Luckily it was a minute after the final notes.

Follow me for last nights Children of December which includes a nice Billie Jean jam toward the end! Pass it on.

jibooer and I also ran last night, and from what I listened to this morning, it sounds pretty good.

When Brad, Marc, and Andrew came on stage last night, each was wearing a single white glove, which they raised in a kind of salute before the set started. It was a longer show last night than Northampton, just about two hours including the encore.

We're in NYC now, not too far from the Bowery Ballroom. Bring on tonight!

Aloha,
Brad

Cleantone · Sat Jun 27, 2009 12:38 pm

By the way the tune after Motherwolf is called That Love Ain't Enough. It's one of Brad's new songs. He played it solo a bit. Oh and you missed Get Me With Fuji after Even Rats.

Hey bradm and jibooer are you going to post your recordings anywhere?

Cleantone · Post: # 22054Post **Cleantone** » Sat Jun 27, 2009 3:11 pm

I assume they need to get back to Canada first. I am about to try to upload my room mics from this show right now. If I can't get the torrent going I may need your help again Harry.
