The comedy show at the Auburn Saloon was excellent. I saw 8 bands at the Legion. Ketamines, Bloodhouse, Grave Babies and Fist City all had blistering sets. One dude was taken out on a stretcher with a head wound.
I feel like I was witness to a historic event, seeing the reunion of The Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet. IIRC, they have not played in 17 years, and they are only doing two shows. I got the limited edition poster, signed by the bass player Good. They were well rehearsed - no rust at all, and didn't miss a note.
It sounds like there were great shows at Republik and Dickens too.
Today I am at National Music Center - hope to get to Dickens later.
