Subject: Fun Boston show

Rain was pouring, making Boston cold and wet. Kind brothers and sisters met in the park to celebrate the loss of a fallen brother.
The band was on, Book of Rules -> watchtower -> Lazy River Road, Days Between second set!!! enjoy

Thanks for the show. Nice quality on the recording. I don't miss many local rat-dog shows but I was unable to make this one so its great to give it a listen here.
THANKS

Subject: much obliged

Thank you for posting. there doesn't seem to be other sources of the show floating around. not listed on db yet. many smiles thanks to you ^-^

rating is based on 4 factors: the list of songs looks good, Nick's happy with the sound, show is from Ratdog's Fall tour 08, and there may be some unexpected balloon attacks! peace

Thanks for the show. Sounds great. I was at the show (although 45min late due to the PIKE). Good energy in the theater. The band and the audience were in sync. Even a couple of semi Bobby kicks. Bertha and Good Lovin' were stand outs for me. Worth a listen.

Subject: Thanks!

Great crowd. My first Ratdog show but it is always great to return to the hallowed ground of the Orpheum. Good vibe as well. Lots of old timers floating around and you could bring your beer back to your seat which I don't remember beign able to do. Bob in fine form as was the whole band. When you stop and think about it guys like Bob are an increasing rarity and should be considered "musical national treasures"!

Nick, I agree, New England does seem to have a fair share of old and out of the way tapers that pop out of the woodwork, with the senn 441's, and too much duct tape...:) I'm grateful that you took the time, the effort, and the innitiative to bring this one to us all. Thank you again brotha!
I came back to re-dl Days Between, becasue at 8:10 my version cuts out. It was the d/l, not the source, I am very happy to report. Tragedy narrowly averted...:)

Reviewer: NicksPicks - - November 10, 2008
Subject: thanks..

it was a solid show. Nothing "over the top" , but well played and in good form.

I believe I was the sole taper at this sold out show. surprising. Usually the Dog brings out all the old-schoolers w/their shotguns. Well, at least in NewEngland shows.

I'm pleased w/the fidelity of this one. Sounds really nice and even. Good stereo image/placement of the musicians.
