Fan Recaps and Comments:
A great show and a great venue. I had not seen TMBG since I saw them in Frankfurt Germany in 1989, and it was fun to take my 16 year old son along. They did almost the entire Flood album (in reverse order), but after two false starts omitted "Lucky Ball and Chain" -- Flansburgh claimed the confetti was destroying his concentration (specifically, that it was driving him "bat-shit crazy"). Meg Ryan was in attendance.
