I have no idea.  Feel free to do the research. ;-)




Hi.  I'm the guy who taped this show.  I was actually set up at this festival waiting to record Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk, but decided since I had spare battery juice and space on my CF card I might as well hit the record button for these guys.  And oh boy, whatta band!  Going places no other band has gone before, other than Ekoostik Hookah, The Recipe, String Cheese Incident, Big Wu, Lake Trout, Strangefolk, Leftover Salmon, Galactic, Tealeaf Green, Particle, Perpetual Groove, Phish, Aquarium Rescue Unit - well, just about any band that makes good background music for drinking your bong water.

Sitting here at home and listening to this music, I'm dumbfounded anew.  I can't say anything.  No, really - not a word.








So anyhow, feel free to enjoy what is likely the only audience recording of this show (board access reserved strictly for the band so they could sell live CDs to the lucky souls flocking to the merch tent for them later).  I'd love to spend hours listening to every note and comparing them with whatever samples I can find at CD Now or here at archive or googling lyrics so I can spare you the hard work of figuring out the setlist (I mean, I haven't contributed any time, money or effort in bringing you this - music) but I'm too busy hunched over my guitar trying to learn how to pick just like them - or am I just stroking off?  Same thing, really.  Well, enjoy the recording. ;-p
