I listened through Reba on Mixlr last night.  Looks like one hell of a show.  Ready for tonight.

That was nuts end to end. The energy in that venue was absolutely crazy! I might argue this was the best show I've seen all year.

The Tweezer > Manteca teases>Golden age was great, they kept pushing the boundaries and taking risks and it paid off.  The sand was a peak-y monster!

This fucking band.
By far the best show I've seen in a very long time.
We actually had no problems in or out, probably the easiest experience I've ever had, which is crazy when you hear the stories from others.
My wife's second show, but she was blown away.
The level of playing is superior right now. Peaks are great and slow burners. I thought Moonage Daydream might blow the roof off last night.
We need a Paug meetup!
Also... That Possum was dope (things I wasn't sure I'd ever say again)

they took down the set opener vids from last nights show for some reason... or maybe my browser is just fucking up, lol
Glad i got to see them both this morning. Hopefully they put them back cause i really liked that Tweezer, especially the first half or so through maybe the first 2 or 3 modulations.

Anyone else get a real 'Party Time-jam' vibe from that Tweezer. It almost feels like the setlist should read: Tweezer -> Party Time Jam > Golden Age

I guess the vocals on Moonage Daydream are marked with an "acquired taste" warning. Ouch.

It's funny that you mention that. I hear people bagging on that song so often, but it blows my mind. Love Mercury, and this one is super good.

Sand has a Tweeprise jam in it too for a minute or so.  This show was great.  They FINALLY dragged the Possum intro out.
