funkbeard don't forget these:

12/28 studio tight arena powered Fluffhead/Bowie
12/29 Suzy cowbell was almost funny
12/30 Page brought the N'Orleans funk the whole first set. Slave had Trey on sustain with trills, and brought tears to my eyes.
12/31 was too tight at times. Orchestra tight, sometimes trumping over raw energy. Weekapaug is worth studying for thematic variation. Set 2 was also profoundly tight, taking away from certain possibilities. A little better than party music there. Set 3 was interesting, with cheesy broadway vocals on Tweeprise, a missed line in KUNG. Sand so sublime that I just don't hear the second hald (which sometimes reveals the precious jewels once unearthed), and was all in good fun. Fishman can still stand to wait a little longer before dropping fills so that he doesn't detract from the groove by over-popping that snare.

Thanks for the great read, Charlie! Peace.
