Set 1: Words, Push the Pig, Dump City, Uncle Wally > The Haunt > Thin Air

Set 2: Pay the Snucka[1] > Rocker Part 2, Rastaman Chant[2] > Syncopated Strangers > Mamu, Syncopated Strangers, Slacker, Higgins, Kula

Encore: The Fuzz > Glory > Pay the Snucka

Notes:
last Mamu 12.14.2002 (792 shows)

Very solid 1st set here, and set 2 had a few great moments as well, but was definitely a bit underwhelming in comparison. The Mamu bust out was great, then Rocker 2 & Higgins had some love, but IMO it’s all about the 1st set. The fuzz in the encore spot was fun also.

This show. Damn man… this show.

Is this the screaming chick show? I listened to this the other day and kept hearing some chick scream at the top of her lungs.

Great show though.

lol I was trying to remember which show that was the other day. All I could remember was that she screams obnoxiously during a great Synco.

Aaaand here it is.

Fuck her man, she basically screams the whole first set. It’s just loud enough for you to really lock into it.

Would have definitely told her to shut the fuck up if i was within a 40 foot radius of her.

We tried. She was far gone. Her BF removed her after set 1.

Band was drinking 40s the whole time.
