Review by TwiztAround

TwiztAround This was my 27th show, started seeing the boys in 1997. However, this was the first time that I was actually up close. Normally I'm a lawn lizard or sit up in the seats of an indoor show, but this time we decided to get as close to the stage as possible. I was literally 15 to 20 feet from Cactus the whole night. Watching a show that close and actually hearing the music through the band members' speakers and not the house PA speakers was a whole different experience. Being able to watch the band interact with each other and being "under the lights" instead of in the back was amazing. This show was the only one of the fall tour that I was able to make, and I wasn't disappointed.

Highlights:
Set 1: Bathtub Gin, FEFY (my first time getting this, never realized how hard it could rock at the end), Ya Mar, Mike's Song

Set 2: There wasn't a bad song choice in the entire set, but my favorites were Ghost (might be the best one since 12/31/10), Steam, Theme, The Wedge, and Hood. Cap it off with a sick Quinn the Eskimo encore and I left that show with a completely different perspective of my favorite band.

There's not very many bands out there that you can see 27 times and still learn things about and be completely surprised by. That's what keeps me coming back. Here's to a great rest of the fall/holiday tour and hope I get to see my boys next summer! Boogie on everybody!
