That S2 set sounds awful

Moog madness and mushrooms were tight, lots of meh otherwise. Robots in to space is pretty decent out of Moog madness too so far.

C+ if they keep it solid til end of set.

The one I saw in November 2009 still holds up decently well tbh, but that’s the only one of the 4 (I think)

Missing “Gospel Umphrey’s” before “666 Umphrey’s”

To be fair, almost all of the s2 sets fell between fall ‘09 and ‘11. And highly likely that none of us have heard them all.

Love that they split the album up over 2 sets. Heard the DBK had 3 jams. Excited to listen!

You have my attention…

How were the album sets in general? I had plans so I was out last night but going to buy the show tonight.

The GHV3 sets were as good as the S2 set was terrible.

The Moog > Robots section was cool and it seemed like they were gonna close the set with a super sick extension of the Robots jam and then the punk rock glory pops up…ugh.

Also Jamaican Darth Vader gives the frasco fiasco a run for it’s money as one of the cringiest things ever.

I will say this tho. Pony reading the FP lyrics was pretty funny

V4J ruined s2 with lame ass themes? What an absolute shocker

Thanks for the recap. I never put much faith into the S2 sets- on paper it’s a cool idea and definitely better for the live crowd, but almost always disappoints.

17

Collusion!!

18

Ordinary Times sounded very good for a debut, song reminds me of Triangle Tear…structured very similarly

That’s one of the best songs from AFAF, looking forward to hearing the tape.

I don’t care for S2 in general but the rest of the show looks like a blast, seems like they crushed the SFOW sets

I have enjoyed the ones from umbowls i was at a lot. Definitely not the best jams ever but i remeber having a shit eating grin on my face during alien porno jam and soaring uplofting jam part 3.
