The outro/"to and fro" of Pendulum has a really nice groove about it thanks to Matt. It's subtle, but I enjoyed it. Ed's guitar tone for Sometimes has a somewhat "cold" tone to it that works well for the somber tune. ........................

...................The main set blew me away, encore 1 was pretty damn good, but encore 2 felt lacking to me. A good show and boot, but the second half doesn't live up to the first.

Thanks again for a loverly review can't wait to compare your findings to other reviews from the 2014 tour. I must say I havedn't given this show much attention so far. I only checked a few songs, you made me go back. I definately will give Pendulum another inspection as I did catch on to that groove you mentioned. I only gave it a three out of 5 star rating.
Sometimes was indeed a nice take. I also liked that it was a little less screamy at the end.

Last year Boyo pointed out something in his reviews, the fact that Stone is laying down such a great groove in the solo/jam part that he basically (At least to my taste) mopped the floor with Mike. Which is OK because most of the time those moments are given to Mike to shine and it was nice to see Stone taking the spotlight without trying. That groove seems to be first played in Worcester, be it very short. Only a few strums. By the time they get to Boltimore Stone just owns the jam part of Porch by building on what seems a happy coincidance at the Worcester show.
Yesterday I had a same expirience with Even flow. The foundation that Stone lays underneath Mike’s solo was truely brilliant. I was listening to the Hartford show from 2006 when I went out for a smoke. And when I came back in I was amazed at what I heard. The solo part of Even flow was just finishing before going into the last verse. I had to skip back to hear it again and see if I really heard what I thought I had. I listend to it over and over again. For me Stone blew Mike away with his delicate guitarwork. If I had to say something negative about that jam it would be that Mike doesn’t make full use of what Stone is providing as he is rounding of his solo. On the other hand Matt’s drumming fits very nicely.

Washington 2006 wow that has some fine moments.
Master of war is amazing and Fuckin' up sounds full of energy.
I usually feel versions of Grievance from 2000 and 2003 are better than younger takes, but this one sounds really good. Better man is very surprising as well.

Bologna 2006

I've only seen three PJ shows but the MSG show from 5/21/10 was the greatest live performance I've ever seen from any band. It was a Friday the city was hopping that night, the crowd was electric and the band was totally dialed in. The first three songs took the energy through the roof and Eddie was hilarious that night. Almost lost my mind when they played "Sweet Lew," and the "Given to Fly/Spin/RVM" finish to the second set is dangerous to listen to while driving (you will speed). Honestly, the show felt like a religious experience. Even the train ride back to Jersey was cool (tons of fans just raving about what we'd witnessed). The best $9.99 you'll ever spend.

That was a great version of Daughter, Pap.. Listening to the 06 Italian shows this week. Did Verona yesterday, now Milan today. These shows don't disappoint.

Benaroya Hall, I'm really enjoying it. I picked up the cds this week
