Another good night at the B.O.B. Slow to arrive crowd, but once they showed up they got up, got with it and got down. There was a stretch around 10:15 - 10:40 where the band was as fun to watch as I've seen them. It's always great when folks get up and dance, and there was a great group who were feelin' it. It's great to sit and watch folks who've never come across the band turn their heads from the pool tables or bar and feel compelled to come check out what's going on.

Some neat things in the set list, too. Romance in Space isn't exactly rare, but it's been a while since I've heard it. Baby Don't Be Leaving So Soon made another appearance and is shaping up quite nicely. I love hearing Something Has Changed live. It's one of my favorites from The Angels Share, and it is has grown as a live track. I was surprised to learn after the show that there were some equipment issues that derailed some of the songs. I go to a lot of shows and get to hear the band a lot and I didn't really notice anything in the songs themselves that would have suggested anything was wrong. So good work MacGyver-ing up whatever solutions you did, band!

Of course, tonight was the final night of the Miss Sapphire southern excursion, so plan on seeing her at next week's show. The boys held it together well in her absence, but I can see it in their eyes...
