## Notes

I thought the energy of tonight's show was a little off: maybe the band was recovering from a hard travel day (flying in after playing Toronto last night)? The show was good, but in my estimation they only transcended for one tune, [t07, titleTBD]. Hopefully they'll get recharged overnight for tomorrow's live stream!
