JRAD N2 was my highlight. The first NOLA China Rider (iirc) was epic, as was arguably the best Throwing Stones I’ve heard them play.

Kinda bummed Damone & I left early to go see that Bisco show.

Outside of doors not opening until after 2 and waiting in line for an hour, the show was great.

They opened with a half hour straight of balls to the walls improv.

Lcbj

They mixed in a few primus and les songs throughout the night, but everything was off the cuff.

Finished with d’s diner

Epic!!!!

Anyone know why Billy left the stage Saturday night? When he came back on Kang gave him a hug. Hopefully he just had to take a dump and is in good health.

My favorite show was Thursday SCI at Orpheum, the lights were insane all weekend.

I ended up getting last min Jim James tickets, that show was badass but I wish he played longer.

All the Wookiee I talked to at the Saturday night cheese show said Claypool Lennon Delirium was the best late night JF show.

Billy was having vertigo issues before the show Saturday night. Pretty ironic that they played Vertigo in the second set. Also, you'd never know he was having issues by the way he performed Jellyfish.

Such an incredible three days.

Ole billy must been hitting some balloons before the show. That and a few to many servings of JAMbalaya this weekend.
