Fineally...I got there a bit later than Katie did....I got in around 9:00 after endless driving in Providence on one way streets with bogus directions and ended up at one point going the wrong way on a one way street. Got there and meet up with Christa and Frank. It wasn't packed too tightly so I squeezed into the front. Mark Cutler ended soon and didn't seem to turn too many people on. The next opener was allright...but again....was later the point of humor among the audience. The set list Katie give seemed to be right...it was around a two and 1/2 hour show and some of it has been lost in my head. It was I...the one who Jian said that CT people suck. Crowd was really happy to see Fruvous despite their 1/2 hour dely getting on stage. As Katie said, the drunks sucked. They seemed really into it and got into the best spirits during YWGTTM. That set off most of the rest of the night. Lots of stories and talking. One noticable one was about the Gnomes who steal your underwear, and mur's song about it. This was also mentioned in the K.O.S intro. Smoke on stage right pissed mur off for a good portion of the beginning. Sauce'pn was a good one. Changes went really quickly between most songs. Kept the crowd going. The new songs didn't get as much support as most of the older ones. Too many people talked. I got stuck next to the " Unibomber" --- who..i have no clue what he was doing. The first few " rows" were danceing where I was..and this guy in a grey hoodie was standing next to me..with it pulled up over his head..tied very close to his mouth..and a spoon attached to the strings. I was sweating..don't know what kept him from passing out. Boo Time was a great hit...Mike go so into it he spit on me...oh well. Just like Katie I was stupid and left the camera in the car. Was a great show....nearly want deaf from crowd noize. The bar next door was Lupos. Got home back in CT which as Jian told me in length during the show...sucks)...got home about 5:00AM.
