the three rancid shows at the black cat this week were incredible. varied setlists, acoustic songs, op ivy and billy bragg covers, and a band just plain having fun.
to top that off, i had the opportunity to go to xm and see the band record an acoustic set for future broadcast on fungus. my job and the connections i have made have allowed me to see some pretty cool things over the years. this was right up there with the coolest. it was literally the band, the sound guy, me, and three or four other people. i even got to help choose songs and give the guys feedback on how things sounded. it was the most fun i've had as a fan in a long time.
if you have the opportunity to hear this "you're not invited" concert when it airs sometime in september, do it.
