We went up high in the back stands and wow the sound was amazing. Much better than up close. You could hear the sound moving around so well and the light show was sick. The lights matched the show. Dark and evil much of set 2. That set 2 was hard rock psychsdelic Jazz. With 1 drummer the band made so many crazy hard transitions and very unique ones. Dino was constantly slowing or speeding up tempo. It was a heavy metal face melt in the eyes transitions. From playin>playing it was the band showing how tight they are and how creative they can be. And Dino’s shortish drum solo was just showing off. Wow he’s fast. I’d never heard an other one played anything similar to that. Set 2 was soooo melty. Wow what a show.

I thought he was full of shit when he kept saying he knew the show and I should too. But he wouldn’t tell me. He wanted me to hear the Louie Louie but I kept bugging him and he broke during setbreak and told me. Lol. Every year we talk about getting the Louie Louie show in Louisville and this year was the first time they drove to the show on their own so we didn’t bring it up also Saturday happened to be lukes 40th show

Looking forward to these shows. Pat Garrett Amphitheatre looks like a great venue, outdoor bandshell and stage with a big grassy field, general admission only 35 bucks plus fees. Apple Valley is being sold as pods with a GA section. Camping very nearby at a place called Wonderland Forest, looks nice with waterfalls and swimming holes, link on the Apple Valley website, gonna be fun 😎

The party at the Executive Inn post show raged late into the night. Praise DSO.

Duck’s super deadhead college son called it after he heard desolation and foolish. He said it’s got to be the Louie Louie Louisville 89 show. No googling. He’s like they never did a set that finished desolation foolish besides this. Proud papa moment for duck for sure. He raised the kids proper . Hoping Jonathan will be on the bus when he gets to choose as he’s gonna be forced on it starting 2023. He’s gonna sell water for the things he wants to buy. In Nashville at ascend there are 3-4 guys with huge coolers selling water since you can take 1 bottle in and everyone buys from them. Let’s see if he will have a bit of hustle to him.

Night number one I was having trouble catching my groove. Night number 2 was the complete opposite- stellar performance and the crowd energy was much higher. I was sitting next to the soundboard and had a wonderful evening and the notes were everything I needed. Love Eatons new Gibson…sounded fantastic
