fuck when I saw this I became ashamed and worried

then I went back and checked what I typed and was super relieved

because those weren’t the words I used

huge relief for me

and you too

you almost looked like a huge dick

McCready is merely channeling the fire in his loins.

epilogue wrote:I'm seeing a lot of praise for Black at the Baltimore show. So, Stip, since you were at both shows, how would you compare Black in NYC night One and Black in Baltimore?

Because I was shocked how electric and emotional and face-melting it was in NYC. Maybe the best I've heard it.

Probably MSG but it’s a game of inches. I would maybe give Mike the nod in nyc and Eddie in Baltimore. So probably comes down to whose role in the climax you are more locked into.

Both were great. I am a little under the weather but am hoping to write up a review of my shows later today. Hard to differentiate tbh. This was an outstanding run that felt more like one really long 75 song set

(not COVID, team Baltimore)

Wish I'd known y'all were going. Wish I'd been there. But mostly glad it was an amazing show. Y'all deserved it!

You dodged a bullet. Ruddo and Strat and MD got crabs together.

Name a better gang to get crabs with though

Damn Can’t Keep!!

That’s a great great song

Can’t Keep opener is amazing, and that six-song run starting with Daughter looks awesome.

That said, I’ve decidedly arrived at a place where I’m fine never seeing this band again. I’m super jealous of not seeing my buds and meeting stip and numbersup — crabs with the boys would definitely be the highlight of the trip for me. Glad to hear everyone had such a great time.
