Felt that way for most of the Mantis material tbh. Weirdly enough, I think Turn and Run was one of the first songs off that record to get semi consistent treatment, then just kinda disappeared. CW2 is the other one.
Pretty sure it took 1348 multiple years to start consistently getting jams. One of, if not the first, Mantis with a jam was winter 2014, 5 years after it came out.
Is it fair to say that Red Tape was the first consistent jam vehicle of this album?
Tulsa Turn and Run is the first standout version of a Mantis song that i can think of
Probably CWII
It is the one they jammed the most that first year
That Bayliss lick that comes in after the bounceback section is so money. Jake kind of ruins it with the upstroke stuff but I guess it then leads to them scrapping it for that ascending riff which ends up being pretty huge. They look like they loved that section too. Talk about some #stagepresence
Wasnât that because of you suggesting it?
lol ya. I bugged Joel and Stasik about it, and afaik (I could be wrong) the first one with a jam was Clifton park 2014, that turned into a raw stewage
Theres a 3ish min Mantis jam from Kzoo 2012. 10-25-12. Not even sure if it was intentional or not. Ends up going into a Bulls on Parade jam.
Edit: This show really fucking sucks looking at it on Nugs but the second Ringo jam is pretty filthy and theres a very atypical August in the encore slot. One of the better encores Iâve seen.
That kitchen is so hot. They had a good show there in march 2 years later iirc. Not as good as the 3/17 show tho
2016 recs. The madison shows were pretty fun. The jajunk from summerfest was killer
I remember Des Moines being a really fun show too but havenât listened back in forever.
Obvi the 2016 red rock run fucking slays. That speak up>water is one of my fav sections.
Also the 12/30 and nye has some really solid parts
You guys remember North Route ? whatever happened to that
It went south, I think
Bahahahahaha
I think the HBB from 12/30 is a stand out for me from 2016. Mantis from RRX was a new one I hadnât heard before, and I enjoyed it a lot.
Thanks for the reminder, that was a great jam.
The puppet on nye slayed iirc
Philly run in '16 had some good nuggets!
10.20.2016: #5, Red bustout, Ringo, Philâs (Jessica teased throughout the evening)
10.21.2016: Fir > Stinkoâs, N2F > Pig, Jajunk Brownie Kitchen, August (In Bloom teased throughout the evening) Join Together is a good The (bloody) Who song- fun encore [GA>Dim Sum sandwich was neat to see, good example of dissonance & resolve]
10.22.2016: Stanton > Higgins (-> Fussy for extra credit), Mantis, Dump, Bridgeless > Draconian > tBH
Damn shame
Another show we have in common. Gotta sit down and make a list during the MW run in a few weeks.
