The concert was amazing and the setlist was killer. Opening with Hag Me was pretty much the most awesome thing ever. The War On Wisdom, We Are Doomed, You're Blessened, Sweet Willy Rollbar, Let It All Be... the setlist was awesome. As usual with the Melvins, you could tell the setlist was very thought out, and some of the transitions from one song to the next were really cool. You really could feel the excitement in the crowd this night. This was my 6th Melvins show and it was by far the rowdiest. There was a bunch of moshing going on, even during Let It All Be, as jone5 pointed out! I talked to a girl whose boyfriend gave her his ticket because he broke his arm. She said she just started listening to the Melvins a few days ago, but she was super excited to see them play. I felt sorry for her boyfriend because he missed a hell of a show. I was wondering who that kid was who came onstage during the outro jam, but I figured it was Jeff's son. I saw jone5 talk to Scott and get the setlist after the show. I also saw that stupid kid jump on the stage and dive for Dale's stick. It was funny seeing him abruptly stopped. After the show I went up to jone5, tapped on his shoulder, and pointed to his banana shirt, trying to explain who I was. "I'm a melvins.net guy... Metalhead Cow!" The show was really loud though, and I don't think either of us could hear much. I saw Boris earlier this year, and I'm not sure which band was louder, but either way... very loud.

I got some awesome merch too. A "make it a cheeseburger" shirt, a shirt with the sugar daddy pig, a sugar daddy pigs poster, and a couple of Walsby posters-one featuring the Melvins as the fat albert gang, and the other one I got was the "Coady Willis ruined the Melvins!" picture, that's been posted here.

It was an extremely good show. I think I had a gigantic smile on my face the whole time.
