It just gets better and better. It was as if their musical memory
kicked in suddenly and they took it all to another level. I don't even
know how it's possible to top that amazing 1st set, but they did it. It
went to places only the 4 of them could go. Forget my same setlist
theory, this set was completely and totally different. It really
belonged in a standing/dancing venue. There was also a dofference in
that there were talkers there this set. You could only hear them during
the quieter moments, but it was wierd and annoying. The music was too
good to remember you were with other people.
They ended it with an amazing "Hey Joe".
I'm kicking myself for not buying tickets for the show with Mary Ehrlich and the straight up MMW. My loss as I heard they were awesome.
