Poster damn near got ruined at this show due to the downpour. Was soaking wet and missed the AQ/Jake/Joel aftershow because of it
Did you use it as an umbrella?
Had some classic poster casualties over the years when I was younger. Left one at an airport restaurant after the NYE run in Atlanta once because I was so strung out and was seeing double after staying up all night to catch red eye.
Also left one at a blackjack table in Vegas after UMbowl again being high as a kite and wondering off. Moral of the story drugs are tight but losing a poster is not.

I went to the Aqueous after party that night too - I remember they played Kid Charlemagne
Incredible Utopian Fir ending jam. They played the beginning of Bridgeless like three times because they kept losing power. Then they gave up and tried Tinkles and had to restart that again too

Summertime 2012 is some incredible consistent playing. I love rediscovering old shows that I used to listen to a lot 13 years ago then forgot about
Edit: it says Summertime bc autocorrect lmao I totally meant SummerCAMP

First Ave hbb, I think it’s March, is an incredible version. Also the Des Moines Wooly’s show is stellar. Got ripped with Joel and stasik with joints during an interview, watched soundcheck, raged a show and then drove 4 hours home

If I used ATU correctly, UM has 75 more shows until 3000. Guessing that will be next spring/summer.
Think it’ll be made into a big deal, and where would be the best place to have it?
I’d actually pick someplace like Norva or even AvL for it.

This show was a grand old time. Two days later, @Santosckm5 and I did the Stone Pony show, but watched the entire thing from the balcony of the hotel across the street. Fun days!

I bet they hit that milestone probably during winter tour with how hard they usually hit the road at the start of the year. Hoping they do another 2 night run like #2000 definitely would travel for it. That Madison run was a party and met a ton of folks off here during it.
That Madison 1999/2000 run was the first time I rented an airbnb. Watershed moment in vacation travel for me.
2012 First Ave fucks. That Woolly’s HBB doesn’t ring a bell but I’ll give it a listen. Ringo from that show is my shit. 2012 might be my favorite year of UM that I’ve seen.

Fall ‘11 > Scamp ‘12 was so so so good.

Love watching those Scamp sets on YT. Such a unique, underrated time in UM history
Add in 6.29.2012 to the never talked about section. Bridgeless, HBB, Higgins, hell, even the Ringo is pretty superb stuff

I’d go through fall ‘12 with that, September and October 2012 have some incredible shows
Listened to this HBB earlier today. Stasik crushes

Truly. 2 good jams in there and he’s the anchor both of ‘em. If Stasik is crushin’ a jam it usually smokes and this HBB is a stellar example
