  1. I get where you're coming from - but "regardless of how the band played"? At think when it comes to rating shows, at some point the song selection, the tightness, the mood, the energy has to come into play. Thus, it is easily possible for a great show at an ampitheater to transcend an average show that happens to be in a more intimate setting, IMO. But I guess everyone has a different way of looking at what makes a great show.
  2. I didn't see the cake, but the guy who brought it out to him didn't have a shirt on, and kind of looked like Frank Zappa. Maybe that's what he was talking about.

There was a mutual exchange of positive energy going on, and Jeff was all smiles.

Encore 1: California Stars Poor Places Spiders Encore 2: Heavy Metal Drummer The Late Greats I'm Always In Love Outtasight (Outtamind) I'm A Wheel Encore 3: What Light Are you kidding? That second encore was unreal. The crowd was really energetic and the band was really feeding off of it
