Denver....if this is how good they sound on night 1...
As it says in the subject, if this is how they sound on night 1, everyone on the rest of the tour is in for a real treat.
Who is this band? I mean...I miss the guy from England, but man...there's something fresh and raw about these guys that Jason and Doggen are working *very* well with...
The singers are the best I've heard in the last 3 (electric) tours...from the first notes they sang I knew this was going to be amazing...
Keyboardist had an arsenalt in front of him and he used it well...
The drummer - like I said I miss Kevin but this guy is GREAT. He brings a fresh kick to these songs that I think is needed...
Bass...BASS!!! I haven't been satisfied with the past few bass players...but this guy is FANTASTIC! Finally some RIPPING bass...he was all over the high end and delivered the low exactly when it was needed...then he was back up again...
And of course Doggen...in FINE form...a friend of mine who'd never seen him brought his dad from Pittsburg (fresh of the plane) and both of them were all about Doggen...So glad you made the trip across the pond!!! It wouldn't be SPZ without you!
Jason: what can I say...seated, which was a nice treat...different distortion on one of his hollow tele's was a nice sound...fit in to a lot of songs...
setlist, well I can't remember...a few brand new ones - one of which is just fantastic...
PAPPY AND HARRIETS - NOT TO BE MISSED!!! @spzretent this means you!!!
Thank you all and have a great trip!!!

I should also mention it was good to see Denver Bill and his Dad (from Detroit, flying back for Tigers opening day today!)...and Nathan formerly of Neptune Records in Royal Oak...

Sounds amazing! Gutted I couldn't manage Pioneertown and Coachella.. but I'm sure Portland & SantaCruz gigs are also going to be great. Can't wait.. only 4 more nights

re. that review of the show - first, bad photos, and second - was the guy standing off to one side??? sure seems like it as he only got photos of jason from stage right, and could only hear one guitar!!!
I was standing in the center and the mix was great the whole time...

Just a suggestion st Clair, dont post your email like that, it is good to sort of disguise it somehow so that you don't get tons of spam from bots.

I found this video of Walking With Jesus from the concert in Denver. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uree2JZwEPc
I like how the audience was clapping along with WWJ at the beginning of the encore. It must have been a really good show.
