Yes Oregon boy, your time has come to explore the wide world. Mason, I agree wholehardely- you don't know what the shows will be like- But as an overall experienc Black Mount is my favorite. No doubt Jamaica is top notch but there's a serious price differential there that I have yet been able to overcome. One of these days...

Colorado is cool but Black Mountain is THE must catch of the year. I'm gonna throw my weight around here and claim that I have advanced knowledge and opinions about DSO tour and that the Black Mountain experience is the jingle bell rainbow hallelujah hatrack of them all. For me. And I'd looooove it if you came Huck! And the rest of you fine folk. I'm making a statement here- believe it if you need it or leave it if you dare~

Yes of course! Duh

Which song is that? No, it's a random inside joke that no one here is inside of. Suffice to say that my hilarious and Brilliant friend was once talking, while under the influence of Lady L, about the nature of DNA and finished his diatribe by yelling "double helix!" While spinning and recreating the double helix. It was a 'had to be there's moment, one that will never be created again. Sakada was there, maybe he's lurking around the forums and can attest to the brilliance of the moment. All really good but I loved Green Earrings and the transition from Deal>reelin in the years was top notch. Way to go A-bear.

Here to confirm that it was in fact awesome. My two favorite bands, melted into one. A bear, two keyboards, drums, bass. Homeboy from the lodge sat in on Sax but no one touring with them- surprising as horns are a big part of Steely Dan.

Using logic, it is not difficult to determine what era it is or if it's an elective. If there's two drummers it isn't 74 (with the exception of 10-20-74). So yeah, it could have been that show but given other songs played (lazy lightening, sunrise) it would logically be ruled out. Or maybe I'm just a freak. Or both.

With 2 drummers?

I liked drumz quite a bit

At some point i leaned back against the wall and it was indeed rumbling

You forgot shakedown out of space- a super smooth transition.

Yeh, we go to Planet Fitness every night to wash the sweat off from the show....

Exhausted from SF but we rallied and an incredible experience was had. Strong show. Room to dance right by the stage. Happy to have two days off!

Damn that's a tasty set...sad to miss lazy river road. Alas...the road continues on~

My fav of tour so far because last night the dancing and the music were so amazing. My favorite Ashland gig thus far. Woop.

Not his monitor- his amp. His monitor is pointed at him.

First three nights of 2020 DSO West coast tour are in the books. I could stop now with a full cup but that is not to be my fate. So on we go. Skipping Bend....home in sorthern Oregon and recovering. Seattle and Eugene were both incredible for me. Portland was good not great- musically perfect but spatially limited. Eugene takes the cake! When i get excited i get Down- like, literally low to the ground. I got low a lot these last three nights. It was so high! And now my quads...

Godspeed and safe passage my friend see you soon

My favorite thing that happens....you go into a show thinking "this venue isnt great"...and then its freaking grate. Tight but scrumptious.

Until someone from the band comes on and confirms no RR then I'm going with TBD

The Rahj is not involved with your Human sense pleasures.

Crude.

The Rahj never sleeps but rather enters into a self induced meditative coma between summonings.

The Rahj is waiting... North bound train departs this afternoon. I'll try to keep updates and reviews going. I'll try....which might result in nothing at all.
