Great show last night; in fact, one of my favorites in a long time. The Grey Eagle was a perfect venue to house this band for a night; small and intimate, the sound had nowhere to go. It looked like we holed up in a barn somwhere in the country.

Thought the band looked to be in particular high energy, with Robert spending a lot of time in front of his microphone playing as close as possible to the crowd. There should be some video out there of a couple songs of this show, particularly Ain't No Easy Way which was likely the best version I've heard them play. Pete had some issues during Half State, where they had to stop the song, but they didn't let that slow them down a bit.

Anyways, very much worth the drive from Charlotte. Always worth any distance to see these guys.
