Thanks for the report, Dan.
I've got family in town, so I couldn't make it. Been meaning to see JRAD. Hope they come back.
The Showbox Marketplace will be getting visited by the wrecking ball soon. Surprised they didn't do Samson & Delilah.

Knotesau, teases have been a
Knotesau, teases have been a part of improvisational music since there's been improvisational music, at least since recorded improv. John Coltrane did them, Thelonious Monk did them, Miles Davis did them, Jerry Garcia did them, The Hallowed Q did them, JRAD does them, virtually all improv musicians have done them.
Teases are nothing new, and the greatest have done them; why do you hate them?

Fun times last night in
Fun times last night in Eugene!
First set was probably an hour and twenty minutes for four songs. Each one had supersonic boosters and huge peaks and valleys. Tight playing, and big jams. I almost wish there was a song in the mix that was a little less jammed out to balance the massive jams.
Second set set was terrific, the Crazy Finger > estimated > ramble on rose was a terrific segment. When the band stopped after ramble on rose, they received a sustained ovation from a very happy audience. The Music Never Stopped > the eleven > music never stopped was loud rocking and a screaming version. Fun time, we were drained after dancing all night to these guys, they had the whole place dancing at level 10. Good times.

>> I almost wish there was a song in the mix that was a little less jammed out to balance the massive jams.
That's actually been my issue with this band of late. The playing is still top notch, but they should stop for a break every few songs to let it breathe a little, at least in the first set

Thought they couldn't be any
Thought they couldn't be any better after Seattle, but in Eugene they were more dynamic, letting things simmer a bit sometimes, but the peaks were high and the band was at 11. Marcos keys were a little buried in the mix, but Dave was louder and I thought he was really on his game. Dancing was a standout - speaking of which, the Eugene crowd really rocked it as well, getting their boogie on and really showing the love. The ovation after Rose was intense.
Kinda regretting selling my Bend ticket now, but that was pretty satisfying.
