[StrangeLastName]

What a fantastic show. I brought my 12-year-old son and two friends, so there was a range of fandom, from knowing just a couple of songs to mega fan (me), and all of us ended up totally blown away and thrilled with the show. We were smack dab in the middle, about 10 people back from the stage, and it was perfect. The way they built the intensity in the volume, the setlist, the lighting design (!!!), everything was stellar.

Favorite points:
- Gene Pool - Such a great opener. All of us loved it. The slow unfolding of the visual elements was perfect.
- Techno Shinkansen - This was short and sweet and such a great inclusion in the setlist.
- Denver Luna - This was already one of my favorite UW songs of the last 20 years, but this live version took it up a notch. I think this has earned a place in one of the top 10 UW singles ever. People were singing along, this one seems to have really landed with people.
- S T A R - I have to admit I didn't care for this when it came out with Drift, but I really enjoyed it in the show, I think having a few shorter tracks in between the long bangers was pretty smart.
- Two Months Off - Again, have never been a huge fan of this track, but live? I get it now.
- Cowgirl - I loved, LOVED this version. It had so much extra energy, the pounding four-on-the-floor bass was unreal. The whole time I was jumping up and down, hoping that we'd get a good recording of this live version.
- Moaner - This has always been a Top 3 track for me, and I was so happy that they played it. Honestly, if it wasn't for the fact that NUXX is their most popular track and a natural ender, Moaner would have been a perfect show closer. The feeling in the room was like, this is INSANE right now.

If there was any negatives, it would be that "And The Colour Red" dragged a bit and kind of killed the vibe, and that I didn't need quite so many songs from Beaucoup Fish. I think we could have skipped a few of those (Kittens?) to get something from the OWB-Barking era (Beautiful Burnout or Downpipe maybe?) or Barking. But that's it.

Overall, an outstanding show and I loved every single minute of it and it was worth the 25-year wait.
