A Harpua>Brother opener?!?!?!?! Timber, Thunder Road (in tribute to CC), Tube... and thats just the first set!
Wow, talk about a way to finish a tour! 
Into Harpua we go! 
6/17 and 6/18 were both outstanding shows - let's hope this one ends the show in just as good manner
-----------------------------------------
Set 1 tonight was outstanding
Every single song was a highlight in one form or another. The boys are
still playing exceptionally tight with nary a flub to be found, aside
from that rough-but-loving Thunder Road
The whole set goes on my highlight list - it was just off the hook, yo
--------------------------------------
Crosseyed>Walls of the Cave
Wow, talk about a 1-2 smash to the face to open the set!!!
Both rock, but unfortunately just as both were about to go into Type II land, Trey instead leads into the next song.
Not ripcorded, but he definitely goes "ok, that's enough" to both of them. Very frustrating.
Slave to the Traffic Light
Guys, really, check this one out. Gorgeous and mellow, patient and
taking its time. This one is just exceptional. I'm usually a
take-it-or-leave-it guy with Slave, so that's saying something.
Absolutely amazing version.
Slave>Fluffhead
Holy mother of Wilson, talk about a perfect pairing. Both were outstanding (as I waxed poetic above regarding Slave...)
Fluffhead was flawless. If anyone talks about them flubbing it in 3.0, send them directly here!!!
Loaded with energy and perfect execution, seriously a 10/10 version for 3.0
And then segueing perfectly into Sand...
This set just keeps getting more awesome as it goes
6/19 Portsmouth ** (Exceptional close to a spectacular tour! Everything was awesome! Set 1 rages. Set 2 is beautifully quiet when jamming. Perfect balance.)
