Posted - 01/24/2008 : 10:55:37 PM THE DRUM SOLO IS BACK!!! Wow, wow, wow! The first show of the new, improved TR3 was absolutely spectacular. 2 rockin sets to a SOLD OUT house. I had talked to them the day before and they were thoroughly excited about 60 presale tix which they said was the most presale tix they had ever sold to a show. The next day we were up to 150 sold and by doors it was SOLD OUT! TR3 absolutely rocked the house and all I could think was if they are this good on the 1st show imagine how GREAT they will be after a few shows together, a couple of TouRs together and eventually the first year of playing together. The possibilities are tremendous. Bands get tighter the more they play together and if they are this good now, ohhhh just you wait! Well the setlists looked like this:
See You In Your Dreams Kabbalah Ohio Indoctinate Natural Mystic All The Critics Skeleton Walls How Many More Times Matte Kudasai Don't Know What Tribulation Soul Sacrifice(SANTANA) ----------------------------- Do You Wanna Jesus Is Just Alright Bang A Gong
The drum break in Soul Sacrifice is "drum solo" I referred to in the opening line of my review. Whooooooooo! Shredding!!
Donkey Bong Caveman Back Door Industrial Uncover The Reason Trippin On You Move On Ahead Sex Machine Purple Rain Hocus Pocus Meaning To Tell You Four Stix(LED ZEP) Slippin Into Darkness Whole Lotta OR Bang A Gong
Bang a Gong was skipped in the first set so it was added to the second. The show definitely was a wonderful way to start the TouR with all our friends and family around us. It felt like the entire OBX crew came up for this show and it definitely gave the guys a comfortable VIBE for the first gig of the TouR for the new, improved TR3. We had a fan at the show who has been seeing TR3 for 18 years so he has seen many incarnations and 1/2 way thru the show he came up to me and said that this was by far the best line-up he has had the priviledge of seeing. "WOW" was all I could think, and this is only the first show, imagine how good they will be together after a few shows, IMAGINE!!!!!
Posted - 01/24/2008 : 11:06:17 PM Thanks so much for posting this Fluffy. These reviews and video clips mean so much to those of us who can't be at the shows. I know I am not alone in feeling they make us feel like we were there, if only in a small way.
Crossing my fingers that I can make the show in Sellersville. I already bought my ticket and by the looks of it I most definitely was not the first one to do that...row F!
