Now that I'm awake, I still can't hear anything but ringing! I've seen them 3 times on the 10k days tour and I would say this was the best of the 3. We were on the side of the stage about 20ft from Adam. Considering he has been my biggest inspiration guitar wise for the last 10 years, it was great to be close enough to watch his playing. It also didn't hurt that we got to see him before the show and say Hi.

Out of the 3 opening acts I've seen on this tour Big Business was the best. Their drummer was GREAT and his part during Lateralus was a perfect fit and really added to the experience. I also don't know what was more funny... Maynard's humor or the people who had a blank look on their face to Maynard's humor.

I would say the highlights for me were Stinkfist and Lateralus. Those two songs are so powerful live with the entire crowd singing along.

Danny was a machine as usual pounding away. Maynard was a bit more animated tonight. Justin always seems to find the groove and it was hilarious to see him down the beers during Lateralus. Adam seemed a bit more into it tonight and at the end of the show was looking for crowd reaction and responded to it as well, which I hadn't seen before.

Did anyone else notice during Lost keys when Justin was dancing around trying to keep the feedback going? It sounded and looked like he lost it right before the end of lost keys, but between him and Adam they have mastered the art of controlling and creating feedback.

Here are some of the pics. No pics during show and only cell phone pics at the end. But good pics before the show. And to the guy that gave Adam the glass sculpture while he was walking his dog, we got your picture with Adam!
