It was stated that the merch would be topped up here. Would love to see photos or a list of what was available, with prices if possible.......

will report back more later - looked like merch was overflowing, especially the one-off Walsby album cover parody sketches (I scored one - more later) - venue poster real cool, scored one of those too - only thing they were out of was Freak Puke CD's - would have / should have scored the vinyl, but seemed the only thing that was a bit pricey @ $ 45.00. Wife took some snaps - will get them here soon. Great show - awesome sound, Buzz cracking jokes and goofing on Trevor (something along the line of "what's the difference between a rocker and a jazzer? A rocker plays three chords and makes $ 1,000.00, a jazzer plays a thousand chords and makes $ 3.00", etc.). Shot about 25 mins. of video too which I hope to post here when time permits. Trevor played a few lines of "Over The Rainbow" during his solo. Great venue - - used to be North Six - completely over-hauled. Audience pretty decent - don't think it was a complete sell-out which is weird - a few douche bags screaming "play a song" during the opening number, which I believe was the first track from FP. Hysterical Grand Funk / Sweet Leaf cough mix intro, and even more hilarious George Thouroughlybad closer - Melvins Lite simply astounding.

Superb photography! This is a bad-ass shot of Buzzo to be sure.

Also the new Tweak Bird CD "Undercover Crops" is $10... and it's rocks.  Also, I believe the release date isn't until next Tuesday, so a nice early score.

I picked that up along with the Trevor Dunn CS "Boston".  It's him on contrabass and someone else(so sorry) on harp.  It's really mellow and I enjoyed listening to it while playing with my 1 year old son on the floor.  Actually, at one point my son started opening and slamming a cabinet door and curiously enough it felt like it went well with the music.   8)
