Are the cis okay?
"Stankonia" by Outkast: still a favorite after 20+ years.
So, Beat Tour at the Warner Theater in DC last night.
Levin is 78 and still amazing. Belew is 71 or 72 and still a maestro. This is the first time I had seen Vai in concert. When he stays controlled ("discipline") he is magnificent. When he went off on flourishes he just was outside my comfort for Fripp music.
I had never even heard of Danny Carey. He's a great drummer. He set out to out-Bruford Bruford and succeeded. Sublimated himself entirely to the material.
The encores included "Red," and having all three guys up stage playing a full-on hard rock version was a blast. I really thought the first half of the show was weak, with muddy sound mixing and meh song selection. The second half was brilliant. The tour is worth it.
Warner is now run by 9:30. Remodeled 1920s silent movie house. Lovely venue:
