Chalk Dust Torture also included a Birds of a Feather tease from Trey. This was the rescheduled date from the show that had been postponed due to the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak in 2020.

one of the best and favorite places to see them. The lot was in full force before the show. fenced in so it was tight but your typical east coast lot scene, something that was lacking in PHX. This place raged. The energy during LA woman and the Tweezers was   We actually listened to LA woman on the way up to Long beach at like 7AM after Chula so another surreal moment there. Another jammed out YEM with even more jam than Dicks. Moma was great too. I keep thinking  these big jams and spacey soundscapes have to do with the Halloween album but maybe this is just 4.0, either way I love it and am here for it.

Good show is good.

[WhatstheUse?]

Interesting show for me seeing that I brought my Mom and was as sober as I've ever been at a show. Mom approved. "Ya know Scott... I liked the second set more than the first? Why would that be?"

Bc of the tweezerfest Ma! You get it!

She was a bit less enthused about the lot scene than I had hoped. Very confused why people would pay $20 for a ten second high of nitrous.

All in all a good night.

[WhatstheUse?]

Oh man... I suppose this is as good of a spot as any for this story...

So... I get to my parents house in Orange County super late after the Chula show. The next morning, like any good mother, my mom takes my bag of dirty laundry and throws it in the wash... I wake up a bit later and my mom tells me to change over the laundry...

... I open up the washer and sitting perfectly atop all my/and her clothes is my full vile of acid in a plastic baggie.

I swear, my stomach dropped to the floor. My first thought is, holy fuck... I just dosed the fuck out of my Moms clothes. Without thinking, I reach into the baggie to check the vile itself in hopes that it hadn't leaked..... OH FUCK the entire baggie is soaked and now my hand is soaked!

Again, this is like 11am the day I'm about to bring my mom to the show. I absolutely, positively thought I just dosed myself to the gills accidentally! I freaked out! Took a shower, washed my hands repeatedly... just genuinely felt like the biggest idiot in the world. And then un-patiently waited for the worst day of my life to ensue...

And it didn't... the vile was sealed tight... the water inside the baggie was just water and everything was fine. My worst fears had not come true. And holy shit am I lucky that my mom asked me to change over the laundry.

Anyways, I may have to re-think my paranoid method of hiding drugs in my dirty laundry.... It seemed so smart... who wants to dig through dirty socks??

Actual jamming in YEM with mercifully limited vocal jamming; great spontaneous take on Waiting All Night; ditto LA Woman (full treatment); a real SANTOS jam; excitement throughout. Great show.

Scott: that's hilarious. While I would have loved to hear the other version of that story, I'm glad for you that it worked out in the better way.

[WhatstheUse?]

The Waiting all night audible was pretty cool. I don't know if it was "better" than the original but it was enjoyable and I applaud their boldness to stick woth it. I kept fearing their would be some lyric that didn't fit with the new tempo or something but it pretty much worked itself out

[Buffalo Budd]

Scotty, that's the best. Love it.
I guess if she found it, you'd just have to ask her if she wanted some.

While I would have loved to hear the other version of that story, I'm glad for you that it worked out in the better way.

these are my sentiments exactly... but the steps your brain went through to get to the point everything was OK were perfect. glad she had fun!

awesome show here!  great segues in the 2nd set.  if you live in LA is it cool when a touring band playes LA woman or is it cheesy?  either way, love to see them having a blast.  before Grind, the acapella mics picked up trey and fish being very surprised at how high the days old numbers were on the notes sheet.  they hadn't played grind in nearly 2 years and commented on how everyone was now over 20,000.  i thought it was humorous, but also sad at how much friggin' time has gone bye dealing with all this crapola.

[VDB]

I mean, if you're a native and that LA Woman cover didn't light your fire...

[WhatstheUse?]

At the time, I actually didn't even make the connection between the song and being in LA.  I thought they jammed into it organically and didn't even plan it.

Silly me.

[Hicks]

I mean Trey has been teasing LA Woman all year, he teased it at the Gorge and I think somewhere else too.
