Fan Recaps and Comments:

Review by Baka:

Although I'm not quite experienced at tmbg shows I'm going to try at a review anyway. The show was awesome, the band seemed really tight and were having a lot of fun, along with the audience. The crowd was a bit constricted, due to the theater seating, but we managed a conga line anyway. The ushers managed to rally an effort to corral us back to our seats, but great fun was still managed by all.

Zander:

This was my fourth TMBG show, and this was during their "Planet of the Apes" phase. This venue has a pretty good balcony setup, so they got a really good audience call and response with the balcony as the apes, and the floor as the people.
