While COVID has reduced the number of shows our band plays, when they do take the stage, prepare for an onslaught of top notch play. Saturday night in Cincinnati was no exception. How nice of the band to clean up lyrical flubs from the original, (check the Alabama/TLEO). I hope the Esau met with MileHighJoel's approval, I thought of him the second it started. Skip's work really drew out some inspired jams from the rest of the band, LIG and Other One immediately come to mind. Second set opening combo as much fun as one could have, the previously mentioned dance space allowing for full appreciation. The Round and Round/Good Love close absolute dance party bedlam on the left side of the stage. We had an amazing group at the gig, I love you all. Praise DSO.

Filler: Box of Rain Quality follow up to the monster elective on Friday. Great fun. Deep family love. Praise DSO.

C’est la vie after Big Boss Man. They went back into Slipknot after Layla. Killer show. Band delivered the goods. Love you. Praise DSO.

Show Day! Knock out these 500 miles and prepare to get down. I'll be rocking an Orioles cap and a Calvin and Hobbes green shirt. Staying at the generous Hotel AC. Safe travels all. Praise DSO.

No problem with the early start. The countdown is on. Praise DSO.
