excellent show but, sorry, the DM stuff just doesn’t do it for me. I’ve played the crap out of the album and like it OK but I’d still rather hear anything pre backspacer.
highlight for me was life wasted…I met a guy here in 2012…truck? ….part of 81’s crew. I believe truck had had some addiction issues and he had “never going back again” tattooed on his arm.
it makes me a little sad…in 2012, I hung with 81, RKCNDY, lizard, norm, nature lover, dissidentman, PJ_ROCKS and a great dog loving girl…I’ve lost track of all of them
Hey Rob.... I'm alive and kickin!!! Glad you liked the show, I think 🤔 😁
good to hear! we miss you!
I did like the show….I really did….but I would prefer that 1/3 of the setlist didn’t come from an album inferior to their first eight.
It's called The Dark Matter world tour...not sure what you are expecting.

The DM stuff sounded awesome. Great record. Might be their best.
agree to disagree.

It’s a tour to support their record. Far from inferior but maybe not your taste I guess. Some people on here enjoy good music .
Show was amazing! Great vibes all around! One dude in particular....Judah Friedlander looking dickhead dancing enough for 8 people in the pit. Pink tights under jorts. High B.O. factor. Really into bubbles. Suspect he was on Molly. Anyone else have to deal with this butthole?

I saw lots of the bubbles flying overhead towards me from behind, Would not have guessed it was some big dude tripping out blowing bubbles 😂

I will say that Missoula GA wasn’t bad where I was, it was full but not packed and most people around me had travelled distances to see the show. Nobody getting out of hand, high fiving when songs like HTI were played was about it. Always gonna have a few knuckleheads wherever you go though.

It was super chill. Tons of room at the outer reaches on both sides

Great show! For anyone who saw my kid carrying a praying mantis out off the GA floor, this is the story:
During RITFW, I spotted the mantis crawling around on the floor (thanks Ed and Kieley (sp?) for the lights!
My kid scooped up the little one and held onto it, letting it crawl on his arms during the last song, and then allllll the way out to a merch tent in near some trees.
THEN, we met a person in the merch line who was on the opposite side of the pit who told us that the mantis had landed on him and various family members.
Mantis is my new hero, a true survivor like all of us...just needed a lift out of a bad situation.
Take care of yourselves and each other. Mantis will be watching.
PS if anyone else has pix, please post!
Love and kisses, see you in Chicago.
Hey, my wife and I were standing right next to you. Amazing the Mantis. Totally a survivor. Great time. Enjoy Chi-Town

Vegas GA was great! I kept talking about hearing Of The Girl and when they opened with it everyone high fived me. Someone took a pic of La Signora and me during Setting Sun.

It was beyond amazing. Such a great venue. Crowd was incredible. And I met Jill and Harper at the Missoula airport and flew to Seattle with them. Had an endearing 10 minute conversation as if we were old friends. I went right up to her, told her to please tell her husband and looked at Harper, and said your dad, about how his music and his talent has touched my life and how forever grateful I am. I told Harper that I have a daughter named Harper who was named after you!! She lit up and had a smile on her face. We had a little more chit chat about the kids starting school, Ohana fest, and how great the Missoula crowd is. My great friend who I was with Mentioned his wedding in a few weeks, and how Just Breathe is his wedding song. She said, just remember my husband wrote that for me! I thanked her and Harper again and they went off. Ten minutes later, I walked over to my gate, and there they were! When we arrivedd in Seattle I asked her if I could bother her to take a picture together. She said she looked a little tired and I said, we all do. At that point, Harper grabbed my phone and said, mom get in the photo! My buddy took a picture with her too, and we walked up the ramp into the airport and kept talking about things from Robert Plant to the life of a wife and daughter of a rock star and the longevity of the band. I told her I've been married for 17 years to my wife, yet my longest relationship is over thirty years with your husband and dad! I got quite the laugh from both of them. Just as chill and as flowing as a conversation could get without any awkwardness. Just a very awesome person with a stellar daughter. I said my thank you again and goodbye and good luck in school. Then I said, see you at Thanksgiving dinner!! A week later I'm still amazed at it all.
