  1. i don’t know what will be played, but I have a feeling these two shows will be the highlight of the tour. for whatever reason, the boys seem to love this town.

  2. yeah the 23 East cabaret was much smaller than the Chestnut Cabaret. Bands that did well at Ardmore and 23 East ended up coming to Chestnut. I’d guess it was 250-350 people.

  3. I gotta disagree with the review. After doing the summer tour and seeing countless “Stealing Time”s, last night’s as eh. That said, the Hood, while not being perfect, was hot, the 2nd set Possum opener was completely nuts, as well as “Mike’s Song” on. Once Trey got Fishman in line with his funk change to Weekapaug, that too was hitting, and discounting the first two minutes, was sick. Just like all others, though, this is simply one opinion. Can’t wait for tonight.

That said, the Hood, while not being perfect, was hot, the 2nd set Possum opener was sweet, as well as Mike’s on. Once Trey got Fishman in line with his funk change to Weekapaug, that too was hitting, and discounting the first two minutes, was sick. Just like all others, though, this is simply one opinion.
