The show was incredible. Bela Fleck gave the band a new vitality. I have never heard LIOG sound so good. The low-lying groove in the middle is the best part to stick a solo, but Dave doesn't have the right instrumentation. I have soloed over it on clarinet, which sounds good, but the banjo sounded great. #41 was the shining moment, however. I expected Leroi to give me a musical orgasm, but to my frustration, he held over. Not that I was disappointed. Leroi is a great saxophonist, and his performance was incredible as always. Leroi let John Coffin, Bela's saxophonist, steal the show. It was fantastic. Leroi, after a great solo, let the pace slow down and the band grooved softly to allow Bela and John to enter. They entered playing the same licks. They were so tight that they played the same melody in their solo. I have never seen two so connected. After that, Bela and John traded licks, and then John just took off. He picked up where Leroi left off, and he gave me my musical orgasm. He slowly but surely moved his way upwards until he couldn't hold all his musical energy, and he just ripped the shit off that saxophone. He blew everyone away. He then let it down, and the band grooved softly again, half purposely and half in awe of this great saxophone player. Ants also was great. Bela helped Boyd get the crowd kickin'. I was glad to hear a newly revamped Weight of the World. Overall, it was a great show.

Amy Leigh it was unbelievable. they are the best live band ever.
