Just got back from a secret show they did in Toronto! It made it that much better that I missed them in both Cleveland and Buffalo and was quite annoyed with myself.
How are they sounding in an arena-setting?

    I thought they did a great job and sounded really good, but my husband caused me to be late to the show. I spent half of their set buying Pearl Jam gear :roll:
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....
    fade away...

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.

    they sounded very good in buffalo last night, for sure a great set-up band for pearl jam.

    I was just wishing I could see them in a club - where did they play??? - I'm so disappointed that I didn't know!!

    they fill the place up with sound that's for sure

    have been developing a great love for this band!

    Man, I figured they'd sound good in a large venue. I regret missing them BOTH nights.

    The Horseshoe.
    My buddy is in the biz and is friends with the guys who run the place and he found out at about 8, they were on 11:15. I got lucky that I had a friend to tell me and I live down the street.

    Believe me, I wanted to post here as soon as I knew, but I wasn't by a computer. It wasn't even packed until right before they got on. It was a well-kept secret.

    I did not enjoy their set in KC or Indy. All songs sounded the same to me and frankly I was bored out of my mind. This was a let down after enjoying Ben Harper so much last year.
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    BOH at the horseshoe would have been amazing. Wish I knew about it.

    Saw BOH at JazzFest and in Columbus but missed them in Indy.

    It's safe to say since I downloaded their stuff a few months ago i have become obsessed with them..
    I CANNOT wait to see them again! Hopefully they will come to the Ryman sometime soon.
    Seen PJ 21 times live from 1994-2019

    Oh yeah, you should follow them or any other band you like on twitter.. I live in Nashville but got a tweet from them the morning of that "Secret" show giving the location.. Would have been sweet to go for sure!!
