Re: 2009-08-07 Fox Theatre in Oakland, CA
I've been seeing them since the mid-90s and I want to share a little story...as I drove from SF to Oakland last night, 'Dark Train' on the car stereo, the entire sky was awash with pinks due to a fantastic sunset. Earlier in the day I'd been playing 'Cowgirl' with my youngest because she loves yelling ICE CREAM ICE CREAM (LOL)...so to arrive 5 mins before they went on, 42 years old, waiting, hoping for a great night, and se them peel off 'Dark Train' and 'Cowgirl' for the first two was a large slice of serendipitous heaven.
For what it's worth, I thought they were really 'on' last night, a very very strong show...and trust me, I've seen more than a few!!!
Hit the hay at 2 am having re-watched some of the show on the laptop, woke up at 7.30 and just finished showing my youngest some of it again...feel like a young person LOL...energizing...delicious...if I didn't have family I'd follow the bastards around the country!!!!
For all who are seeing them on this mini-run, enjoy...
