w00t Deantoni was on FIRE !!! To quote Meshell, "How could you not listen to him play?" And 75% non-album material was ridiculous. My mouth hurts from smiling so much. Someone snagged Oren's setlist, so I missed out again. But upon a second listen:

Lock & Load
The Bottom
(then a song from some guy who's been dissing his fans)
Wilderness
Mass Transit
Headline
Green (by Mark Kelly which was FABULOUS!)
Crying In Your Beer
Lola
Top Shelf
White Girl
Evolution
Strongarm
Article 3
The Sloganeer

Hey K’Trazz. That show sounds absolutely amazing! It’s a lot different from the show they did in Atlanta back in May 07. Is there by chance a recording of that set? Meshell should release a live album. She and the bands live jams sound a lot more polished than TWHMMTMOMD. In Love

I really should get around to editing some of these shows and figuring out megaupload. They need to be trimmed and mastered. Plus, I'd hate to post something with me telling the guy behind me to stop snapping flashes in the middle of a great song. Roll Eyes

But man, working two jobs sux. Mad I got no time to get into my fresh built studio to work on my stuff, much less all the shows. Still, if you really want the raw file, I can at least trim it.

K'Trazz,

I'd love to hear the raw copy! I was at the Detroit show as well, and am dying to relive it.

Also, I think I saw you tell that dude about the flash. It'll go right with my memory of the show. ;-)

My email is mrodyssey@gmail.com

Thanks!

deshi speaks the truth...Meshell said that right before ripping into 'All The Critics Love You In New York' which had the crowd HYPED. So i don't think she minds us sharing the recordings of the live shows at all. Big Grin


Deshigirrrl, Groove Thang and M it was very cool to finally meet you all in person...and i'm glad the show we happened to meet at was such a good one (even if it was kinda short compared to her gigs in the past).
but then again she packed a helluva lot of great stuff into that short package...and you know if anyone can, i can definitely appreciate that Wink

again, loved meeting ya'll (hope to do so again sometime)...oh yeah and don't forget to let us know how the Milwaukee (& Minneapolis) gigs were ( woulda loved to join ya there too) Smile

peace!

Yeah, I still remember the first show I tried to record (and screwed up), and Meshell giving my pointers. Cool

Hey derek, I'm glad you enjoyed the show better than some from Y! Groups. I still so hate that I couldn't make it out to meet you guys. We need to get a real convention together someday that I can actually plan for.

Anyway, the natives are restless, so...

One: 11-12-2007, The Majestic Theater, Detroit

woohoo thanks again...enjoying the 11/12 show at the moment!! Clap I'm loving Crying In Your Beer...it's the only song from your setlist that wasn't played in Chgo. slightly different order though. She was more talkative at the detroit show, so it's great to hear her explain some of the songs played Smile

minneapolis was the best show i've seen on this tour... i flew out to support tasha opening with black blondie, and she is so talented. you all would have been so proud of her Smile

it moves me to know that meshell personally chose her band over many others that applied to open for her.

tasha is crazy on the keys. she was mobbed after they performed and it continued after meshell performed. i had a hard time passing on the hugs from chicago... during black blondie's performance, tasha was directing her band and playing everything from corny 80s sound, to stuff that radiohead would've been proud to have on one of their albums, to classic minneapolis sound (aka jimmy jam/prince 80s keys). i look forward to seeing them perform live again...

meshell's current band just keeps getting better and better. i can't imagine how good they'll sound in europe... because they just keep growing. i'm so glad i got to see deantoni (pronounced d-ann-ton-ee) play drums for her... he is an amazing talent. she allowed him multiple extended solos throughout the show...

other than the guy that kept yelling out "elliptical" in between every song, the crowd was great too. very supportive and enthusiastic. meshell of course connected immediately with them by opening with "all the critics love you in new york" (without the commentary from the previous shows) and closed with "wilderness."

possibly the highlight of meshell's set was the performance of "shirk." before the song began, meshell explained what "shirk" meant to her, before she sang her song very mellow with only oren and chris behind her. it was a very "bitter" moment...

but yeah, it was well worth making the trip to support tasha... and meshell. i already had purchased my ticket to fly out to the chicago show before tasha emailed me saying that her band was opening for meshell. i immediately went and canceled my flight home from chicago to seattle and bought tickets to fly from chicago to minneapolis and then back to seattle. after 3 days in minneapolis, i didn't want to go home...
