Show Notes:
This show was a welcome relief after the Atlanta debacle, where I had a ticket to the show but dropped it ***under a car on the way in***, then spent 3/4 of the show looking for it. This show was taped from the 4th row, Stone's side. The version of "Porch" from this show really snagged my earholes. Overall, it's a great set taped from a great spot.
He may not be given to fly, but his name is Dennis. Give him thanks for taking what's in my closet and putting it in an easily consumable form. I just push buttons and shit. And there's more to come. Much, much more.
---ballsdeep OUT!
