I can’t wait for these 2 shows this weekend. The Langerado show is a great long one setter with a fun Buddha and of the finer I-man’s of the year bookending a terrific Cyclone. The jam into LH if fun as well.
But the real party is the Starscape fest the next day for the June 24 '06 show. I was lucky enough to have gone and it was an UNTZ fest to be sure. Lots of DJ’s of course (meh) but MMW really tore up the stage earlier with a fine, fine set. It was a very dank day with thick heat after a day of rain and sweaty pits.
Now, this dark,trance,psychedelic jam Bisco at it’s finest. If someone tells you it’s overrated,kindly walk away smiling It’s one of the year’s best in a spotty but much improving era for the band.
There are too many highlights to tell (like the opening Caterpillar!) and you kinda wanna go in to this show clean if you have never heard it or rarely. It’s all wonderful but, when they open the first few notes of Crix…know that you are about to witness history. Nearly an hour and a half of dirty,philthy, Philly madness. So damn good. No pauses the whole way 'till the encore.
I hope you all watch these and enjoy the hell out of them. I shared the cost of the whole Virtual Tour package of shows with a friend and so HD files and DVD-Rs will be/are floating around. So that doesn’t suck
I’m not sure if this is a Nugs SBD kosher posting site but if you want the boards lmk by email.
Funny little thing to add here. I was going through some boxes in our basement, because why not use some of this downtime to do things I’ve been putting off for years? Opened an old box full of CDs I had burned & the very 1st spindle I happen look at had that aforementioned 6-26-07 show sitting right on top. Haha…haven’t opened that box for at least 8 years, probably much more.
So, I’ve def listened to it. Hoping that we don’t have anything going on that night & can tune into the video stream.
Did we have fun watching these '06 shows, family? It’s good to see everyone of you,I’m so lonely these days lol.
I was watching the virtual shows with my girlfriend,who’s strictly Dead/PH and doesn’t really like Bisco haha, that was tough. While I was shredding carpet like a madman.
Oh well, she does other things real well
Happy Sunday!!
be well.
