Notes:

This one is the penultimate show on the Jed Luckless 2019 World Tour of venues around the globe in Secondlife, and this time it's a return to the United States, with a Streaming Sundays appearance at Streaming Falls on June 2, 2019. It's a two set show with special guest musicians Ed Lowell, Mr. Multi, and vocalist Meetu joining in for the second half. This was an early Sunday morning show after a long tour and it's a wild one.

First set starts out pretty typically, with Jed settling in on an extended version of Mark Gutenplan's "Remember This Night" paired with Jed's love song "Secret Language" and including a rocking jam and "eye-opening" light show from Moondance Parx. An instrumental called "The Hairdresser" is next, and this is where things start to get weird. The lights go out and Jed seems to embrace the darkness, delivering a "sunday sermon" about kindness and emerging into lightness again by playing a magical Kalimba which he uses to "calm" the energies. Shamanstic drum circles fill out the lengthy "Kalimba jam" but Jed's not done being weird yet. What follows is a freaky guitar driven jam with a sinister vocal line that sounds like "There Are No Wars Til Now." It explodes into a full tirade as Jed tears into America for a manic minute - very unlike him, and what makes this a really unique show. Jed wraps up the set with the ever hopeful "Come Tomorrow" from his "Luna" suite (which is actually a rare back-to-back repeat from the previous show at La Fabrik just three days earlier). It's a pretty intense set, and everyone needed a break after it! 

Second set has a completely different feel as Ed, Multi and Meetu join on stage and suddenly Jed has an entire band of friends backing him up. The quartet sounds great with a mix of keys, flute, mandolin, guitar and vocals merging with Jed's sound in a unqiue way. it's an eclectic set list, opening with Led Zeppelin's "Battle of Evermore" which includes a nice atmospheric jam before a segue into Jed's "Barter Creek." The first of two Grateful Dead tunes is up next, and it's a mid-tempo Friend Of The Devil which sounds fantastic with the backup vocals. A nice arrangement of John Lennon's "Imagine" is next, and the Phish song "Water in the Sky" prophetically makes it rain. Another Jed original not yet heard on the tour ends the set, the title track from his 2010 album "All At Once." The quarter finishes up the show with the quintessential closer, the Grateful Dead's "Brokedown Palace."

This is a one-of-a-kind show and not the show anyone expected. Good and bad, highs and lows, there is an intensity throughout and creativity abounding at every turn. You'll hear many things in this show that you rarely hear at a Jed show, from Jed screaming loudly, to african drums and kalimbas, to mandolins and flutes dancing amongst his tunes. Truly worth a listen, but only if you're in the right state of mind and ready for a journey through light and dark and back again. Good luck and enjoy!
