Got most of the second set and the encore (that encore - holy shit).
Really dug the CDT > Twist smooth as fuck segue, but was underwhelmed by Light and the rather rough start of Rock and Roll.

Kind of an avg show.  Reminded me a lot of 2014.   Maybe MB spoiled me or something.  The CDT was the clear highlight.  Mercury was good too.  9 min light > yawnsuit hurt.  Twist was well played as well.  The first set almost put me to sleep until Melt, which was really cool I thought.

I think a lot of people are suffering from Magnagoggles.
I thought this was a strong show that stands well with the second half of tour.

It helps that I like the material that others grumble over, I suppose.

Listened to the entire first set last night and found it rather uneventful. The SOAM was ok, started to get a little dark and I guess I would say was the highlight for me. Reggae was nice as well.

I bailed for a bit as ASIHTOS started the second set and didn't come back until CDT was > into Twist. I guess I need to give it a proper re-listen because I didn't find the transition that smooth. Even though these versions are short, I still enjoyed Twist through Light. I didn't care for the placement of Wingsuit. R & R was solid.

I bailed for good as they started Monkey.

Looking forward to giving this second set a proper re-listen, especially the CDT.

Magnagoggles, lol.

I haven't heard a single note of the first set as of yet. On it right .... now.

From inside, last night was pure fire.

From inside, last night was pure fire.

And that's really all that matters.

Fishman sure wasn't on board for the segue into Twist, he almost sounded pissed to me.

Only listened to the highlights of this show, but I preferred Friday's show to what I heard.

Just shy of ten mins into Chalkdust is a Dark Star-ish tease from Trey.

[sunrisevt]

Serious Birds of a Feather teases too-I think mostly in Chalkdust, then one more later on.

Light is nice, obvious nod to the Drive-In set.  Trippy ambience.

Chalkdust is nice
Fun show overall nothing too special
The Encores are great this run
Glad got that martian monster!  :banana:
