Notes

OH MY LORD.  One of the best shows I've seen in the past few years.  Not a moment
of boredom watching Mark Stewart, Gareth Sager, Dan Catsis, and Bruce Smith
(with an additional member handling additional guitar and backing vocals)
tear it up at the Great American.

The best part is that Mark Stewart, as intense as his performance was (he needed half 
a dozen towels to wipe off his sweat and broke a couple of his vocal mics) never gives 
the impression of taking himself too seriously, and all the new songs were suprisingly 
catchy and sat well with the classic tracks.

Only disappointment was that the GAMH wasn't close to sold out.  In fact, they
they still had the tables out.  What is wrong with people?  Still, I took advantage
and had a burger beforehand.  There was also a lyric stand that my compatriot tomzero
reported he could read the songs from the balcony.

The band said they were having to fly out at some early ungodly hour so only had time 
for a single encore track.

Some photos are in the subdir of the same name.  

There's a brief video clip somewhere in my fakebook:  https://www.facebook.com/thehappywun
This is a good way to keep track of my music-related activity...
