Fan Recaps and Comments:
I have seen TMBG a couple of times before, but this was my first experience at a "family show". At first, I was worried that I may look like some creeper walking around with my brother amongst a ton of little kids, but felt comforted when I saw quite a few others with out little ones strapped to them. It never ceases to amaze me at how seamlessly TMBG appeals to kids. I've experienced this first hand when played their songs on guitar for the kids at the camp I run every summer.
Highlights - The Sun is made up of 1960's Fruity soft drinks and apparently an E-bow. The Avatars of They chanting "Guns-n-Roses" despite the kids in the audience probably having no idea who they are. Marty singing High-Five... well, anything with Marty including his awesome drum sounds during Why Does the Sun Shine. Classic snare...
All in all, it was a pretty rocking show though I really hoped they would be playing an adult show while they were down here. Next time I guess.
