Tenachious D stole the whole show playing with all the acts. Adrock was drunk in the beginning after having a Bloody Mary with bacon. Was funny cause he said "After 20 yrs you guys come & see us." Mike D corrected him & said it wasn't that long.

[Brother McDuff]

Off the hook, to put it simply. The bboys were in top form, IMO.

What a blast. Great energy all around. MMM was spinning the heat, no joke. Right Right Now Now was a big high point, and I was glad to hear them drop Do It.

Lets see, what else.

The boys and MMM stepped out early to introduce Tenacious, wherein Adrocks bacon bloody mary talk came up. Oh yeah, and Jack Black wiped out during a song and turned it into a good laugh.

Ben Harper and Tenacious D covering Under Pressure was a hoot also.

I'll save some of the highlites for other concert goers to report, though. Good times, good people, surprisingly welcoming city as well.

G'night.

tsk tsk where is the fastidiousness in these reports? Who was on the trap kit for Time for Livin? Fredo?

Thanks in advance,

[Kid Presentable]

Oh well it appears to be a completely new arrangment that nobody really mentioned. Yaunch is stepping up that vocalist role. (y)

Didn't you read what they said, Kid?
ADROCK HAD A BACON BLOODY MARY!

I'm sure there was some other "banter" that was documented and enjoyed by all.

Mike was on the drums for Time for Living. (He's been using Ben Harper's drum set)
Jack Black, Horovitz, Mike and Yauch all sang along. I don't think Jack Black really "knew" the lyrics too well but he made up with a lot of energy.

Razmatzern shot some vids of a various songs and they'll hopefully posted soon.

I leave the official word to Bro. McDuff since he's a sound scientist but it sounded very good. Crystal clear and well mixed. And during Sure Shot Yauch said something like "There's some kid on the board that I don't knowwwwww"

Tenacious D and Ben Harper came out with hoodies and introduced the Beasties with a short rendition of We Got The.

And finally, Gratitude was printed on the setlist but never played.

[LongDuckDong]

Was "sweet Lou" mentioned and if so, how many times?

[Laver1969]

Was "sweet Lou" mentioned and if so, how many times?

I'll have to go back to the booth and review the tape to get an exact count for you. Did you take the over or under on Sweet Lou mentions?

Vegas brought the line down about two days ago after watching all the previous footage.

[alikat]

The show was amazing! Great seeing / meeting a lot of you.

btw I counted one "Sweet Lou," during pass the mic. Would have kept closer track if I knew there was money on the line.

Highlights:
The D's spot-on a capella "Cost of Freedom" with Crosby and Nash.
Yauch: The animal of the day is a 'roided Dragon.
AH announcing the wedgy he got leaping into the air during Time For Living.
Something about said Dragon's waffle iron powers.
"Do It" particularly on fire.

Funny Gratitude was on setlist, I so thought it was coming but it didn't.

And this is some pretty priceless shit right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJdmrQwuACo

Hope Jack's ok today!

[OpenUpYourEars]

this was my first bboys show and it was awesome

bummer they didnt play Gratitude but cool to know they at least planned on it

i was pumped when they were sound checking drums and guitars cause I was under the impression they were only gonna play hip hop

couldn't ask for a better first time
