Subject: this show is top notch!
For such a young (mid twenties) band, they play like they've been playing their whole life! They have a youthful energy, but they have the ability to reign it in to keep it tight, complete, and masterful. Vocals are some of the best I've heard for most bands at any age, and with great songs & new melodies they are on there way to greatness. This is a must listen, from what I was have gathered this was a fan show, so they played a lot of their entire catalogue. I noticed there were many more transitions not properly labeled, and very well executed ones at that. Can't wait to someday see these guys headline the Portsmouth Music Hall, what a great room for them.

Subject: incredible night!
ahhhhh. first time seeing the brew, i had really showed up for the Heavy Pets earlier in the night. During the band switch I went out to smoke a cigarette, and when I came back the Brew was on. It was so amazing at first i thought I was hearing a studio album on the bar speakers. then i realized this was going on live and it blew my mind as i entered the room with the stage. during no quarter i literally felt us being sucked into hell. led zeppelin would be proud. the floyd covers were great, despite the fact that everyone covers have a cigar, they did a really good fun job with it. ya :) o and the 15 year old kid on the flute with astonishing!

There were some heady wooks there last night (and some not-so-heady... I'm looking at you, Salvo!)

Overall, tho, great, great night! I've been absent from The Brew scene for the last 3 or 4 months and I gotta tell you, their improvement over that amount of time was definitely noticeable to me last night.

First of all, there were a lot more segues last night, more than I'm used to anyway, and that always makes me smile. I just love it when they either work their way into, or just drop right into another song. Keeping the flow going and staying with the beat always keeps the energy high.

Secondly, song selection... They seem to have played their newest songs enough to work out all the kinks and now they aren't so prominent in the setlist. That being said, I think the more polished version of Sad But True last night really stands up and grabs your attention. And even more so now with songs like No Rest and No Future, which have really stepped up and become Brew Heavy Hitters. Then you round all of that out with them dropping a Light From Below, Ride the Valkyrie, and Groovin High in your face and you have a really well-rounded setlist! "We're mixing and melting the new with the old!"

Lastly, I'd just like to point out that the covers they're doing these day are really fucking cool. I was amazed last night by Young Lust, I thought they really nailed it. I love Floyd and I thought The Brew definitely invoked the spirit of Floyd last night. Have a Cigar, in the second set, was just really well positioned and really helped focus the energy early on in the set. As if that weren't heavy enough, the No Quarter>Radio Swiss>No Quarter definitely put it over the top. No Quarter was beautifully played and sang, a fitting tribute to Zeppelin.

Overall, last night, i felt the music was executed very well, the energy was always high and the special sit-ins by Seth Campbell, and Timmy Philips (timMAY) added a unique touch to a show that was very well crafted... right down to the rock 'n' roll outfits they were sporting last night (Thanks Ashley!)

It's been a little while since I've seen these guys and they've definitely raised the bar. Great show last night, lots of fun!
