It's sold out now, so perhaps a few of you out there are going?
The week is still early, but hoping to be there.

Im in for the Rams Head show... I jumped on tickets before i found out there was a 930 one... Im hoping th dc show being sold out is a sign that the Baltimore one wont be crowded, since its hard enough as is to see in that venue.
Im excited though, should be a fun night!

1 hour set total in Balitmore per my son. F'ing ripoff if you ask me.

I enjoyed the show. The venue wasnt crowded, which allowed me ample spots to view, a complaint i usually have with RHL. The sound was good, except a little bass heavy. The tunes were good, though I would have loved a little more tunes off the last album, but oh well.
Have fun at the 930 show, i kind of wish i had tickets for it as well.

Theyre playing tonight in NYC and its killing me not to go. Id have loved to see Jamey opening up. If its only an hour I wont be so sad. But Kevin always does put on a really great performance/show. Im curious what he's doing now, or if its much like it was last time I saw them.

LOVED the show this time around, though lots of douchy women...wassup with that...kinda wish MonkeyPants was there to elbow them and have a laugh. ;D
-
That's a nice setlist. I might have to decide to go to the Richmond show this weekend.
Did they really not play Wraith Pinned To The Mists? if so, good for them.
-
Pretty much what I expected.
I couldn't get passed the sloppiness of the band but as stated above, the theatrics still appear to be more of a concern to them than the music itself.
Firebutt thinks Kevin Barnes heard me calling his band sloppy as we walked by the backstage entrance.
Oh and I don't know how their ignoring their first five albums (two of which are their best two) doesn't frustrate anybody else.
-
^ there is way less theatrics than last time so I enjoyed it more.
-
That's what I heard...sounds like he only rode out on stage once on the back of an albino rhino while sword fighting with an 8-headed paper mache representation of the Babylonian god of fertility.

-
Way less theatrics is less of an excuse for many of their songs to be unrecognizable until Kevin opened his mouth. At least they got rid of that obnoxious backing track.
Drunk Firebutt singing most of Joanna Newsom's "Emily" word for word afterward was better than the show. And Joe can back me up on that.
-
Did any of you little boys get your ass spanked by Susan Sarandon?
-
LOL! That was an awesome show but would have been way better if it were a rhino. now a horse really doesnt sound that exciting. and of course the theatrics are tamed down from that.
i miss kevin in his shiny red boots and green skirt. of course, then there wasnt any theatrics just all the men (and dottie) dressed up so beautifully.
i also miss them not playing their earlier stuff.

Who knows what the fuck is occurring inside Barnes' brain? He's such a brilliant musician and composer, but his on-stage antics and refusal to promote his music much as compared to his theatrics is just mind-boggling.
-
The music obviously takes a back seat which is sad IMO. I have probably posted this here before but I'm almost certain that they don't play the old stuff because it requires a much, much tighter band. His current band (most of whom did play on those old albums) just do not have the chops to play that stuff right now.
-
Hey I was at the show (awesome by the way one of the best shows I've been to so far). Unfortunately, i didn't bring a camera :-\ Does anyone have some decent pictures from the show? i'd like to remember that night in the future and also show my friends how crazy it was :) my email is modernartillary@gmail.com

Everything that's gonna be said about Wraith has already been said, but it still has two of the sickest bass lines Barnes has written.

I agree. I love the song, but I'm impressed that they didn't play it. I thought they had doomed themselves to playing that song at every show.

Looks like the show for Richmond tonight is canceled.
