Seriously one of the best shows I've ever been to.

Guessing--hoping--they'll add more locations. I won't be sitting in the back, next time.
Dude, what the hell. Did you go to the Fox Theater? Because that's exactly where I was. On the balcony, which was sparsely populated.

Jeff's been touring alone for over a year now and I'm pretty surprised that the rest of NMH is getting together. I'd be much more surprised if he wants to redo the year's worth of solo touring now with the rest of the band.

I've seen Jeff twice and went to an Elephant 6 show a couple years ago, so I feel like I've already seen the whole band even though were separated. But hell yeah, if they come to the west coast, I'll go see them.
