This was my first and only time seeing these guys. I’d seen several other
shows at The Calvin but nothing that sounded quite like this. There was
enough speakers hanging in this place to run a show at Giants Stadium.
I thought for sure it was going to be too boomy on the tape after the first
set so I switched from cards to short guns at set break. Boy, was I wrong!
If you are a big fan of bass and have nice bassy speakers, it’s a must
have. There’s a few spots, I wont tell you where, that your neighbors might
think there’s an earthquake! Crank it and Enjoy!
