yea mike was there....i was at that show too, and as much as i love and respect mike, i think that the duo was cleaner when i saw them w/o gordo. Id like to see the duo have some other guests play with them, maybe a lead guitar. anyway, yea mike was there

I drove out from western Pennsylvania for this show, and it will always stand out in my memory as a spectacular evening of music. I wish the sound was just a tiny bit better, but the show is so good that it gets five stars anyway. Joe Russo was a force of nature this night, and from the opening hit of Becky I thought his kit was going to disintegrate any moment. The first set is well-stocked with long, sometimes spacey periods of improvisation, and the second set has some real rockers, including Heartbreaker (Metzger's solo was worth the price of admission alone), the ubiquitous sing-along of Mike's Song, and a good encore. I wish I had hit Boston too, but alas, duty back west called. Still, this is a remarkable performance by three great musicians.

SETLIST CORRECTION: Lengthwise also includes elements of Miles Davis' ON THE CORNER album (which you should all go get if you don't have it already).

Wasn't this show played with Mike Gordon?
