N1 Wednesday

Sure, there were a few exciting moments and the make-up (quickie) sex of the last four songs. But overall a fairly uninspired set with fairly uninspired play. The good news is this is par for the course when the band tries to play a single-set show, and the next 3 nights are all standard two-setters.

The only question about last night’s ranking is best show since ___? This assumes you put an asterisk on NYE.

Add up the improv, factor in the quality of the WoH, throw in no S2 downtime & I’m putting it ahead of anything from 2023. This includes the Greek Tweezer->Simple show and all the MSGs. It’s probably better than anything from 2022 though I’ve blocked most memories from those tours. Maybe Shoreline21? A masterpiece.

I need to relisten to a few versions, but I’d be shocked if last night isn’t the 🐐 CDT—which is incredible given how many legendary versions there are.

Best back-to-back shows since Shoreline 21, and I bet that band sounds like ass vs this one.

One of the best shows of 4.0, and it pains me to put it below a <gap>, but it just doesn’t have the horsepower to keep up with Thursday despite the superior Q1.

@chopaganda I think it’s undeniably and instantly the 🐐 CDT. after a couple big 2023 efforts, they hit a grand slam.
@justinbruce I need to do IT, Dick’s 2013, and Hollywood Bowl 23. Trying to think of there are others on the shortlist. Already tossed out Baker’s.
@chopaganda @justinbruce Randall’s 2014 is up there, but doesn’t touch last night.
@justinbruce @Divided_Scott @chopaganda Camden 99 count or dq’d for brevity?
@jdp11 @Divided_Scott @chopaganda ha ha these texts from earlier are appropriate re: 7-10-99
@justinbruce @jdp11 @Divided_Scott @chopaganda They are kinda apples and oranges to me. That was one of the first ones that really jammed out, but I don’t think it can compete with the depth of this one.
@vriphish76 @justinbruce @jdp11 @chopaganda It’s extremely tasty but a one course meal. Last night was like the chef’s table.
@Divided_Scott @vriphish76 @justinbruce @chopaganda well that leaves me very excited (still haven’t got to last night’s).
