Glowstick war during break before encore. *With different (?) lyrics. **With bass solo by Mike; with a Muel Duel bass/drums jam between Mike and Fish, with Mike wearing a horned viking helmet like the one Fish has been wearing for the past few shows.

After the previous night I didn’t really have any expectations for this show, but I had a LOT of fun. I loved the flw of tunes in the first set…it was a huge dance party. Actually I think the first set might have been better than the second set save for the Mule duel between Fish and Mike. That was pretty cool. Plus it’d been a while since I caught a Timber Ho! so I was excited about that, but the whole flow of the second set was awkward. A good show that probably never gets listened to. I would at least recommend checking out the first set if you’re looking for something ‘dark-horse-ish’.
