treytreyw222 · 06-29-2012, 12:50 PM

Good to have the boys back playing again after a short break.

Jimi Thing 10 · 06-29-2012, 01:01 PM

Cummins Lies is consistently my favorite intro.

mja271 · 06-29-2012, 03:19 PM

Visions of Parin is officially now just "Visions", for whatever reason. Maybe the random name change means it'll get more play. Who knows.

kav2312 · 06-29-2012, 06:02 PM

Its pretty cool to see them play it for that guy and his mother...and its just a good song.

Alexzandraeva · 06-29-2012, 08:03 PM

Tickets bought for the 8/10 burlington, VT show. Hell yes.

mja271 · 06-30-2012, 08:32 AM

None on this run, but I'm doing RR/Boulder in Sept. maybe Bridgeport in Aug, but I have another commitment right now

s0628711 · 06-30-2012, 09:58 AM

Why is umphreys only getting one set at asbury park? I know there is a noise curfew of 1030 down there but I was surprised to see them advertise it as a single set.

mja271 · 06-30-2012, 10:14 AM

Same for Boston tonight. Not really sure why they're doing some one setters, but I think the curfew has something to do with it. Either way, it'll be a two hour set, so still plenty of music.

"Hey, bro! What song is this??"

"It's Visions."

"Haha! This isn't Divisions!"

canes101190 · 06-30-2012, 12:44 PM

They switch off with G. Love for the headlining slot.

mja271 · 06-30-2012, 01:20 PM

Where'd you here that? Joel specifically tweeted last week it's not a co bill and G Love opens

I heard from a couple people that was the case, but that's weird that he tweeted that. I don't know why they wouldn't just play two sets and make it like a regular show unless they have curfew problems. Oh well, whatever.

mja271 · 06-30-2012, 04:49 PM

Called the venue to check. G Love at 730, UM at 9 for anybody going

mja271 · 07-01-2012, 11:13 AM

Great little show last night. Reso>2x2 was so good.

mja271 · 07-01-2012, 02:05 PM

I was on the phone so didn't feel like writing up anything substantial. So here's my review of last night:

First off, I've seen a 2 hour one set show before, and it's definitely weirder and not what you're used to with UM, but they did a pretty good job with it. In a way you feel like you're only really seeing about 3/4 of a show though which kind of sucks. Having said that, they brought the heat last night and really put out a great, tight show. I went with two newbies who were loving it

No Crying > 40's: Great way to open a show. That intro is sweet and 40s is 40s, which is to say an awesome tune. End solos were on point
Miami Virtue: Love this song, this had a very nice jam but it seemed to be cut a bit short (there was a hard 11 pm curfew at BoA) >
Booth Love: MV dissolved into this and again, a really nice funky jam that didn't quite "get there" due to it not being stretched out too far.
Crucial Taunt: Love the name, and the song is pretty hot too. I think it'll go places
Resolution: Wow, highlight of the night by far. Two monstrous jams with multiple different sections, this was a slam dunk winner
2x2: Can't beat this segue and this tune is beautiful. The middle jam portion was Joel just dominating with some great piano work
Live & Let Die: Ironically the other time I saw this was the one setter in LI last summer. They nail it, great song, crowd loves it
Rocker II: Again, rock solid as always and played very nicely last night with the end jam peaking to great heights
Comma Later: Didn't care for the placement but I'm warming up to this a bit. They had a nice "jam" going at the end that again didn't go as far as I would've liked
Tinkles: Smoking and a great set ender as always.
Puppet: This actually worked really well as an encore. Standard version, but that ending is a rager. Good high note to go out on

So overall, what they played was really solid and well done, I just would've liked to have seen a two setter, or them to have a bit more time with the set they did do. It wasn't a two hour set with encore as advertised. It was 2 hours total including the encore break, so we definitely didn't get as much show as you'd like. But I had a great time and they played very well.

Philly was a fun show. Lots of great improv.

That video link may not work. So why don't you just take a listen to the audio...of the whole show :-)
