Joel led synth jams could apply as well

Sounds like U2

6889

This sounds cool ngl. Little different, almost like Half Delayed a bit

New album is gunna have all the '22 stew songs they’ve been playing recently - Out of Focus, Unevolved, Wide Open, Exit Signs, plus Concessions

Would love to hear like Draconian or Stinko’s get tossed on there too, but I bet those are unlikely

Is he playing left handed? Why is this video breaking my brain?

6891

Joel’s using the front camera on his phone which flips everything

Considering they played Draconian at the Top Note shows, I think that one might make the album.

Saw one of the dudes on Bravo’s Southern Charm wearing a UM shirt in last weeks episode. Kinda cool, but also very lame as the same time.

I’ll fluff like my name is marshmallows, but putting several pre-composed jams into a song, for the song-set gimmick, isn’t my kinda yum. Not to say, i wouldn’t mind if they did it again tho.

Hard disagree for me. Don’t care if they have some pre composed elements to a one song set’s jams, especially if they hadn’t played those sections before. Especially when 80% is above average UM “improv” imo

I would’ve had a blast at this live and it’s mainly what drove me to do the next NYE run

TBH, it’s been a long time since i listened, and my taste has changed since.

Not hating at all, still go back to this one often but the music from the first lyrical section is from 1348 on 2/20/15. Def prefer it with the lyrics though.

I fall on the side of this quite a bit. I don’t care if the jams are pre-composed or “organically” created in the moment. If I enjoy the final result, that’s what matters to me. Every improv group has a formula, so what. I was at this run and had a blast.

The arms race to analyse why a show is less than excellent is pretty funny.

can’t say I recall the lyrical section in this Ringo but there’s no way in hell I’d want lyrics in the 2/20/15 1348, that’s one of my favorite 1348s. total ambiance with that ascending bass line from pony that builds up to a beautiful soaring finish
