Notes
Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
Veneno began with some fairly striking band choreography; several other pieces featured group dances, but none so stylized as that first one.
Samples triggered by two drummers kept the music going between many of the tunes
Lots of instrument swapping … I probably missed a few of the changes
The band seemed really happy to have drawn a big crowd – this was definitely their first visit to SF, if not also to the US – and from the amount of singing and dancing, most of the crowd appeared to be familiar with the band's repertoire.
The finale was probably one tune (with a full stop in the middle for a band introduction from SS). About five minutes after that break, most of the band went line-dancing through the hall, much to the delight of the audience.
