[John White]

as i was apparently the _only person_ at the show, i guess i'll have to
annotate the setlist:

...rocked.

PG had some choice words to say about enron et al... liked the
'debranding my consciousness' rant--shades of _no logo_.

also saw some guy in a head injuries shirt--shouldn't that thing
be in a museum or protective laminated cover?!

in the end, it was totally rocking. except that most people need
to jump around/dance more. except the blonde girl near jim's
side--that was just about right. but if you're just going to stand
there with five-foot-long dreds, move :)

also, my vocal/aural senses needed a day to recover, so it must have
been good. wish they'd played 'tone poem', though...
