FYI… PHOTOS of the SHOW at the BOTTOM

 Well, this was my 5th time seeing That1Guy and the Magic Pipe.  He is a truly mesmerizing performer… the inclusion of the Magic Saw and Magic Boot are also great, but the true show is seeing Mr. 1Guy put a crazy go nuts university seminar on the Magic Pipe.

The opener was Seattle’s Flowmotion.  I only caught their last 3-4 songs, but I liked them.  Kinda of a more rock style jam band.  The best part for me was their drummer and drummer/ percussionist combo.  Two of the 3-4 songs I saw had some cool extended dual drum solos.

T1G came on right around 9:30.  He seemed to play a very similar setlist to the time I saw him a year and a half ago at John Henry’s, but much more energetic… having a pretty packed house at a bigger venue on a Wednesday definitely didn’t hurt the energy. :)

Setlist:

• Forgotten Whales leading into Instrumental Intro Jam
• Jigsaw
• Weasel Potpie leading into Instrumental Jam
• the one with “heaven or heck” in the lyrics
• Dig (with the magic boot)
• Buttmachine (extended)
• Instrumental Jam
• Bananas
• Somewhere Over the Rainbow(with the magic saw)
• One(with card tricks)
• Jam Session with Flowmotion drummers (T1G’s credit card jam)
• …
  

Great show… I left at about the 90 minute point (it’s been a long week for me so far).  If I had to wager a guess, I bet he played “Mash” and/or “The Moon is Disgusting” and/or “Birds” as encores… but that’s only a guess.

And now for some news from That1Guy…

He’s re-issued his first album… the one before Songs in the Key of Beotch called Let’s Hear That1Guy (click pic to find out more):

Oh, and T1G’s “Buttmachine” is the new Rick Roll… try it on your friends. *cough*
