I love T&D jams, but T&R is a way better version of that song

This is an excellent take. I like Fir until the end for the same reason.

Mitten with horns was really cool.

Why does bayliss use the same stage banter one liners so often? It makes me uncomfortable.

Because even their banter is pre-composed

It’s a weird thing to fluff but I absolutely love hearing Bayliss take on the Loose Ends solo. It took him a few nights to get comfortable without Jake and this show is the culmination of that. He absolutely crushes this one.

Don’t sleep on the RW either.

One of the best shows I’ve seen. Venue was a sweatbox/death trap though

This version is what made me a Turn and Dub convert

That run I was doing 1:2:4:8 for my dose intake and definitely was feeling loose in Rockchester. I think I created enough dancing room to not realize what a sweatbox it was that night.

My worst show is probably Kalamazoo 11/6/14. At least Boston Halloween had a sick N2F intro and a huge Bad Friday double time peak.

Think my favorite show I’ve been to is 3/13/14 Sacramento

I still think about ā€œKzooā€ 2016 a lot. That was.l a rough experience

Underrated part of that night is how we had like 3 rooms and we kept setting of fire alarms then just moving everybody into one of the other rooms like a shell game

That night was wild brah. Don’t think Duke or I slept a wink and I had Trista give me a ride to the airport and somehow you and HairyPancake got on the first flight so I had to take the next since I was running late to San Diego. March 2014 was a fun month for ter!

Wow worse than 3/07/14 Portland? I didn’t think that was possible

I also remember catching probably the last taxi available and going straight to bells and making it just a few minutes before last call and grabbing two hopslam’s to the face. It was looking pretty rough for awhile there when we couldn’t find a ride from that ā€œarenaā€

Hopslams too the face’d.

03/21/2015 Seattle is worse than that one, but thanks for reminding me how how bad the end of that show was.
