I am so ridiculously hungover from last night... I'm a little bit deaf today, I need to start wearing earplugs.

The opening band, Men, Women, & Children possessed a lot of energy that should've been the 2nd band before Gang of Four because the next band, Morningwood sucked big donkey balls. Other than that, it was a fuckin AWESOME show and they absolutely rocked. Being up in the front and seeing Gang of Four right there was just unreal.

Also, flirting with the security guard to grab me the set list works wonders.

Set List:
Return the Gift
Not Great Men
Ether
5.45
What We All Want
Paralysed
Why Theory?
Anthrax
At Home He's a Tourist
Glass
He'd Send the Army
Natural's Not In It
To Hell With Poverty

Encore #1:
Guns Before Butter
Damaged Goods

Encore #2:
I Love a Man in Uniform (w/ Men, Women, & Children on stage)
I Found That Essence Rare

1 1/2 hours of Gang of Four= good times.

[low whistle] That's a solid set list. I guess "Armalite Rifle" is asking a bit much.

Man it was fuckin unreal. Armalite Rifle would've been awesome... but if they played "It's Her Factory," I would've thrown my chonies on stage. Ok no, not really but that would've just made it even better.

Yeah, I wonder why they haven't been playing "Outside the Trains Don't Run on Time" at these shows?

I mean, I can't really complain. They played an awesome show here, too, and I think the set list was sorta similar but in a different order.

Also, I thought Men, Women, & Children kinda sucked. FM X-station friendly GoF-super-lite. But, yeah, Morningwood was pretty awful, too.

I didn't even drink and am feeling like a fuckin' zombie today.

Gang of Four kicked my ass. Jon was an animal onstage -- hopping around, crawling across the stage -- he was more animated than most guys half his age. Standing right in front of the band was unbelievable -- I could feel the energy emanating from both the stage and the audience behind. Unfuckinbelievable!

Dri, it was great seeing you as always! Jake is getting cuter. ;) See ya tomorrow!


PS -- I took cheesy photos with my phone. Once I get 'em loaded, I'll post.

Yeah last night was one of those nights I regret not having my camera... for some reason I thought Avalon didn't allow cameras so I didn't bother. Lesson learned. :/
