This was by far my favorite show of the three times I have seen them. Johnette was in stunning voice last night. Jim's guitar playing was as impressive as ever but I couldn't help but notice that he is starting to look like Joe Lieberman -- not a good thing.
I too was suprised at the turnout given that the 2002 concert at 9:30 was sold out well in advance of the show and people were clamoring for tickets outside. It may have to do with the fact that the new album has received virtually no press.
"Take Me to the River" was amazing!
