Other than the disappointment of rolling up on Katz's to find it closed, we're doing alright.

Dudes, Trey played Bliss.

It was lovely. I did not realize that was the debut.

Quality show. A provocative combo of new and old flavors. Group communication was at a high level.

Sick show!!  Could never have dreamed up a first set like that. When they went back into Tube the place exploded.

[danje]

My first show and listen of the year. Was blown away. Trey sounds the best in years. Loving the dark alien themes.

You should revisit the rest of this year's fall tour.

Good show was good. Jams held up on tape this morning.
Katz's was a bummer but we rallied with Indian.

It was silky too.

Heater last night, can't wait to hear it start to finish.

[WhatstheUse?]

What a bonkers first set. I lost my shit so many times. Glide 2.... the -> C&P..... Bliss debut.... sick tube jam > Paug reprise. Good stuff! Second set was no slouch either but didn't pull me in like the first.

[Gumbo72203]

This Everything's Right jam is the business.  Gives me Deer Creek Gumbo vibes with the half-time whammy melodies.  Good stuff. 

I also liked that Trey plays lead on the Mike's jam rather than fucking with his delay pedal with chords like he's done in 99% of every other Mike's Song since like 2014 haha
