We Got the Bombs

"He smells like the 90's"
-Britt

Another fun Wednesday night in Middlebury.  This one was pretty Dead-heavy, as we're leading up to Capricorn's show at Bridge St. Live on Friday night. This show featured three more debuts, which brings the GM song catalog upwards of  a million.

Acoustic performance. "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" (Neil Young), "Casey Jones" (Grateful Dead) and "Asshole" (Denis Leary) were debuted. No bass fires were reported at this show.

While I'm enjoying seeing the band tighten up their takes on classic tunes, we're missing the originals! Would love to see an unplugged acoustic set of vintage GM tunes- imagine an acoustic set loaded up like this:

(2) Played by fan request after a large wooden Monkey appeared in the crowd
(3) Unfinished due to epic bass fire. Sick.
(4) Contained ending section to "Can't You Hear Me Knocking?" (The Rolling Stones)

"The Horse" and "Tube" (Phish) were debuted. A bass fire was reported during "Third Personality", causing the band to abruptly stop the set.

Imagine. Imagine that? Imagine!
