ON AIR EAST
Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Japan
SET 1:
Axilla: Standard. >
Taste: Trey goes ballistic on this one, would recommend!!! The guys yelling for Weekapaug (Weekapo Weekapo!) are funny. Would highly recommend this Taste.
Billy Breathes: Standard.
Poor Heart: Standard. >
Golgi Apparatus: Standard. >
Funky Bitch: Trey is a little over the top on this one, lol. They extend this one a good bit, much longer jam sections than is typical. Would recommend.
The Moma Dance: Standard. >
First Tube: Standard. >
Chalk Dust Torture:
SET 2:
Tweezer: Wow, where to begin? So much to unpack. There is definitely some filler. This jam is basically all Trey though. There is plenty of raunchy reverse reverb. There is a section that features the coolest effects from Trey in the most serene manner towards the end. I consider this jam in the same vein as the monster jams they played at Big Cypress.
Bouncing Around the Room[1] Pretty sure Trey forgot how to play the ending. But what he did play sounded cool and purposeful. Sly dog!
The Mango Song: Standard.
The Squirming Coil: Standard. >
Gotta Jibboo: Standard. >
Meatstick[2] Crowd just eats up the Japanese lyrics, lots of lols all around. >
Tweezer Reprise: Standard.
ENCORE:
You Enjoy Myself: Standard.
Summary: Would rate this as a 4/5. All time Tweezer definitely boosts this score. Otherwise it would have felt more like a 3.7 or so.
Replay Value: Taste, Funky Bitch, Tweezer.
[1] Brief outro solo from Trey, which replaced the usual closing guitar lick.
[2] First Meatstick to feature Japanese lyrics.
The Moma Dance included Funky Bitch teases and Tweezer included Funk #49 teases. This was the first ever Meatstick to feature Japanese lyrics and Trey flubbed the words while attempting to sing them. Bouncing included a brief outro solo from Trey, which replaced the usual closing guitar lick. This show was re-broadcast on Japanese television.
