TCP Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 During one song I thought he was holding up a percussion/shaker thing, but I think it was actually an orange.There's a bunch of fruit shaped shakers, apples, lemons, etc etc. You see them at music stores sometimes. I saw The Rentals use one once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coltrane Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 What a blast of a show at the 930 last night. With Neko and Dan up there that is an awful lot of folks making great music in and out of the band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Tesh Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Just wanted to chime in on this. saw the show in lawrence last night and it really was amazing. Every bit as good as the wilco crossroads show a few weeks back, although honestly I wouldn't compare the two, other than to convey how tight they are. Everyone was on and the sound was great. Neko and Dan were both there. By far the best TNP show I've ever seen, and each show I have ever seen has had both Neko and Dan, just lucky I guess. Don't really remember the setlist but they played everything I had hoped to hear. Myriad Harbour was unexpectedly the best song of the night IMO. During the testament to youth in verse, Dan sang holding an apple in one hand and of course some imported beer in the other, and held them both up by his face during his vocals. Then when it went into the instrumental solo parts, he would hold the apple right up against the mic as if it were his instrument. that was somewhat amusing. I believe they opened with all the things that go to make heaven and earth, and closed with bleeding heart show. Revision: I see a few posts back someone mentions Dan holding up an orange, I'm now guessing that what I'm thinking was an apple was an orange, or even more likely perhaps some type of shaker that looks like a piece of fruit. The odd part being though, that I'm fairly certain he did not do any shaking with it, but just holding it up against the mic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
