House of Blues Anaheim at Downtown Disney. Sold out show. No opening
band.

Doors opened at 8pm. We got inside by about 8:30. Standing room only.
Had to have been 1200+ folks inside. Ventilation sucked, and very
cozy. Hot and stuffy and after an hour+ of waiting, (start time was at
9:30p.m) peeps got a bit impatient. they got started at about 9:50.
The show started with an opening video staring General Boy with "a
message". was great!!!

I won't go into the play list (spoiler), but they surprised me with a
few songs I haven't heard them play in other concerts. No new material
- just a few from Duty Now, FoC, Nutra and of course AWNM. There might
have been one from ONID, but it's late now and my brain is as fried as
my voice.

I overheard that Freeze was the drummer this night, I was on the side
and drummer out of view so I couldn't see who it was.

Everyone there had a great time despite the hot stuffy conditions.
Mark's voice sounds as good as ever. Hate to say it but the spud boys
are aging gracefully so get to see them as soon as you can.

I met some great kids that flew from Calgary down to Anaheim
specifically for this concert, and we were able to get a pic with Gerry
before the concert.

How is telling what new additions they're playing now a spoiler?
Quite frankly, I would want to know what new is in the show, because I
don't think I'd want to go see them play all the same songs they did
last year and the year before and the year before. But I might want
to go if they're doing some other stuff along with Come Back Jonee and
Uncontrollable Urge for the millionth time.

Don't read if you don't want to know.

I heard that one tune is from DNFTF and it's about the instability of the
earth.
Another song is from NT and it's about traveling beneath.
