You absolutely nailed this review. Dead on. The show was amazing. Although i actually thought Reba fell off a bit, and not sure if i’m going with you guys on Kill Devil Falls. Maybe i need to hear it a couple more times,but it just seemed forced and badly constructed. I wish Trey would get back to writing more classically constructed songs, YEM, REBA, DIVIDED.

Great review. I was down front, and yes “Kill Devil Falls” was actually a request. I heard it. Though I think it came from a friend of the band. Which would make perfect sense. I remember listening to the Farmhouse album 1 month before it was released. Friend of a friend of a friend copy. Also, I saw a guy right before the second set take off a long sleaved shirt to reveal what looked like a 15yr old “Mike’s Song” shirt fashioned after the “Star Wars” logo. I’m convinced it was the shirt, and told him so.

Great Review!!! My face melted during Loving Cup, then when Trey came back on stage for the encore and says “They got something going on here tomorrow night? Why can’t we play here tomorrow night too?” You could tell that the band felt the same way about the show as the crowd.

Keen observation as to why they haven’t been stretching out too much. I think you may be onto something.

pretty solid review….would say that kill devil falls was SOLID. Ive listened to it a couple of times and it only gets better. Its a rocker with some nice countryish overtones. This and Ocelot are my 2 favorite new jams. They are VERY tight with a lot of potential. GREAT SHOW, goes down as #2 best for me behind 12.29.03

SEE YOU THURSDAY
