I Can’t Go For That teases in BLBC

Listening to this now. Just more evidence that this is a superior band with Scotty.

I can’t go for that tease in BLBC :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I thought Scotty did a fine job last night. It seemed like he played the compositions in a fashion similar to Kris but without all the extra pizzaz. Higgins was the only song I can remember where he got a little bit wonky through some of the changes but even those weren’t that bad. I thought there were a few times in set 1 where he didn’t quite match the peaks that the band was going for but that’s probably just because I’m used to Kris going terminator on that type of stuff over the years. Seems like he was able to lock in with them in the 2nd set which was probably one of my favs I’ve seen in a while. Song selection was choice all night and A Go Go was a pleasant cherry on top

No Diablo jam was kinda fun. I’ve not been bored with this weekend’s material yet.

Judge Judy tease during Miss Tinkles

Sweet Dreams during small strides

Agreed. That’s the only song I took note of sounding off.

This too!!

My mistake, it’s not Judge Judy it’s People’s Court

I didn’t really notice last night but I was relistening to small strides and the sweet dreams vocals are rough. I guess I get so distracted by his beauty that sometimes I ignore the vocal deficiencies

We have our first Scotty chant after divisions. It only took 3 shows.

I predict the chants of Scotty will only grow.

I hope we get some LA Law, Heat is on, and Night Court teases in the future

Now you got me wondering if anyone has ever done Law and Order teases

Needs to be reiterated… this place is the GOAT Umphreys venue and it’s not even close for me

I’ll hop on the Greenfield Lake hype. Place is one of my favorites I’ve seen them. Beautiful spot.

I’m going to really go out on a limb here and say that the jams have an early 2010’s looseness. It’s like they’ve gone back 10-ish years. Like they’ve taken a paint remover to the high-gloss finish they’ve shellacked over themselves. They sound free. The music sounds joyful. The lyrics have meaning again.

I dunno. I’m really feeling Umphrey’s McGee again for the first time in a long time. Like, I’ve listened to three whole shows. I didn’t even skip No Diablo and I ALWAYS skip No Diablo.

It’s good to be a UM fan again.

I hear him on Higgins but not really on IC. The chorus without the high harmonies is rough for sure.

It definitely looked like he was singing in IC.

I’m ready for the first turn and dub to see if he throws some Kris esque yodels in
