I walked in at 8:15 and was told they just started that minute. My jaw dropped when I moved the entry curtain and walked in to see Marc Ribot playing the hell out of his guitar! I braved a quick walk in front of the band and a pretty much full house to score an awesome seat just left of center in the 2nd row, which is up a big step from the floor. Once I sat, I was again elated to see Tim Bern on baritone sax! Tony Malaby was absent, but the 3 regular band members: Ches Smith, Andrea Parkins, and Mary Halvorson were all present. And boy was everybody present!!! This show was non-stop amazingness from beginning to end! This is a dream band playing the best way possible! It was hard to pay attention to any one they were all too enthralling.
