Posted by Dave M on 8/8/2004, 4:46 pm, in reply to "Boston review" The other new tune they played was Margarita, I think. I kind of agree about the new stuff - there's no funk or jam, just kinda fluffy pop stuff. That's fine if the lyrics are clever - your typical Chris stuff - but they were a bit flat. Genuine really rocked, though, and one or two of the new tunes did have my toes tapping. Lady Kerosene was a nice surprise, as was Nice Talking To Me. And I'm never one to turn down a Big Fat Funky Booty. Overall a tightly scripted show but I have a feeling that since it was a free outdoor radio show, they didn't take the liberties that they might on a headlining tour - the band only played a little over 90 minutes, which didn't offer much time to stretch out. Speaking of Nice Talking To Me, nice talking to Sean K, who found me after the show! Too bad we didn't get to meet up beforehand. If the show sounds at all listenable, I'll circulate it (hell, I'll probably circulate it anyway, with the huge caveat that it sounds like it was taped in a wind tunnel). Sorry, everyone. --Dave
Sorry I missed you, Sinko - hung out in back closer to the soundboard all show. I did bring the rig and taped it, but stupidly forgot my windscreens at home, so I'm sure it'll sound like complete shit.
