that’s crazy
I heard a bootleg of this show.
I cant express in words about the Whale Song. It’s a dark lullaby that you can groove to. Its like… Dramamine-Bukowski-and Mechanical Birds, only its mechanical whales all mixed into one.
You guys are geniuses. Cant wait to see you in Rostraver and Cincy.
ist zehr gut! 9 to 10, old to new + new one. talkin’ shit about a pretty sunset? polar opposites? what’s up? i used to skateboard in there. wife loves johnny.
I love these photos. The way they progress to a more intense shot. Awesome to hear they played the Whale Song.
I missed the Whale Song, it was so hot in there I almost passed out. Thank you Ed Frost, Rochester EMS for the water and kind care. May I suggest your roadies get some Big (electric) fans for your EXTRAORDINARY band and adoring fans? Thank you, can’t wait to see you again in Pittsburg (Rostraver) and Cincinnati. I’ll tank up first. Love you photos Pat!
AMAZING show! Can someone get me a set list?? My memory tends to fail me… =(

We were at this show and it was fuckin’ amazing! We can’t wait for MM to play here again!!
