Tonight's show was great! Chris blasted off for the stratosphere with the first tune, and the overall intensity remained at the red line for pretty much the whole show. Of course, with compadres like those onstage, it's hard to go wrong, and the participation from the other three guys was crucial to maintaining the overall vibe. Searching for the higher ground? Channeling the cosmic mysteries? It's tough to pin words on the event, but to me, the music evoked a sort of seeking for oneness that was very pleasing to hear. I look forward to seeing these guys again when I can!

Andrew Gilbert posted an article about Potter with SFCV, reviewing the whole weekend's run of shows.
