Lotus opening for PPPP is a travesty and I’m not a huge Lotus fan.

UM first in New Haven? 
Lost a buncha rempel heads when he left and their style of music hasn’t been hip to anyone since 2011ish so no new young fans. Sucks cause timmy P is amazing and they’ve been pretty consistent with him barring the one big elephant in the room.

I agree with this Lotus take. I was a huge Lotus fan back in the 2002-2006 range. I’ll throw them on from time to time still. Tim coming on certainly brought a new flair and I love what he added, but it’s all the same stuff.
What’s the elephant?

The couple shows I’ve caught with TP have been so much better than the last 10 or so Rempel shows I saw.

Chuck?
Yea clearly had an effect on their sound and is a depressing subject to talk about
Ahhh. Duh! He was also a genuinely awesome guy. Sad

It really sucks to see some of these encores and think about how much more fun everyone (band/fans) would be having without the huge elephant in the room

Very noticeable how when UM is first and moe. is second and the UM nugs feed transitions to the encore the sound quality immediately tanks. Clearly moe. soundguy is handling the encore when they’re 2nd. Night and day difference between UM playing 2nd.
Meaning moe’s sound guy is bad or coach? UM boards still sound horrendous last I checked
As bad as UM’s tapes are, he’s not wrong. Straight up dog shit sound during those encores.
I’m not sure if he’s referencing when it changes to UM’s sound tech in the encore that it’s bad or the other way around

They’ve gotten way better in the last year. The first year with the new sound guy was really rough but he reeled it in and it’s pretty much fine now. moe.'s guy on the other hand though leaves a lot to be desired. The seem to have a very “whatever” approach to their whole operation.
