Michael’s description: My favorite show of the run so far. Great crowd, very loose and open vibe on stage. A brisk Whitecap starts things off high-energy. Maz burns on flugelhorn. Grown Folks is funky. Mark milks the first solo. Shaun takes it out on Moog. Justin takes a beautiful trumpet solo on Kite. Bill owns the outro on piano. Tarova feels good. Bullock and Jamison duke it out. Nate takes an extended percussion solo over the outro. Shaun turns the crowd up on Thing of Gold, then sets up Big Ugly with an organ outro. Mark solos. Bill plays a short intro to Ready Wednesday. Justin takes the solo on Prophet 6. Shofukan gets a rare solo from Maz on flugelhorn. The band uses the crowd’s singing to create a new downtempo groove for Quarter Master. It marinades for a while before the melody drops in. It speeds up on the B section. Mark drives the rhythm bus for a while, then Bill and Shaun trade. The horns take it out.
