85 + 2 falling lady + 5 front & center points = 92
Unique set of circumstances last night at The ‘Dise. They rolled up to the place a few hours late, there was an Ozz Fest Party in the Lounge, and we got to sit absolute front & center - yes, sit - since they had about 100 folding chairs set up. New to me.
It’s basically a crime against humanity that I didn’t have my camera with me, as I would’ve taken hundreds of ridiculous close-ups and video of the whole thing. We may have some pics coming though.
Lytle and his backing buddy had a little table with a night lamp and a Kerr jar of drum mallets surrounded by a Casio, synth, and an acoustic guitar. Oh, and the canned mic for the fuzzvoice. They started with “Summer It’s Gone”, which has been in my head ever since. They busted through a wide variety of Grandaddy tunes (despite the “torture chamber” next door), which made them all organic, original, and even more beautiful. It was basically the perfect way to pour one out for our now-defunct homeys.
Highly similar setlist from NYC (via The Music Slut)
Huge review with pics @ Nonphenomenal Lineage
Good ol’ West Coast space rock…

Also, later today I’ll be posting my filmed version of “Levitz” on YouTube, if you’re interested. Oh, and someone else filmed a bunch of the songs from that show, you should look for ‘em on YouTube as well.
Thanks for the post, I enjoyed reading it. Sarah

Holy crap, nice review & pics there.
Now I dont feel so bad about not having my camera. I’ll definitely check back on that Levitz action too.
The falling lady was the middle aged gal on the front row of the left section across the middle aisle from me trying to sit down, and her ass pushed the chair out from under her and she spilled and careened into the stage. It was beeyooteeful. Serious laffage
