Bonerama in the Midwest : one last post

I know everyone is probably getting tired of me continuing to talk about the Bonerama shows I went to over the last couple of weeks. We’ll see if this post will get it out of my system. I had such a spectacular time at all the shows, be the crowds large or small. The guys never disappointed. The music just continues to get better and better, even when it seems its already as amazing as it can get. I’ve really run out of unique superlatives to describe them. I’m glad some more of my friends did get to experience them live so I have a few more people who now know what I’ve been raving about for these last few years.

Check out this awesome combined set list from all four shows that I went to over the last two weeks (duplicates removed):

In the past I would take hundreds of photos in a weekend of shows. (Seriously, I could make flipbooks from some of those shows.) But after all this time I’m pretty confident I know what the guys look like while standing on a stage and playing their instruments. Now I just take a couple at each show, more of a documenting of the venue and to remind myself I was there. I have a few photos from each of the shows and you can see them on flickr.

Now I tend to take video clips instead of photos.

That’s it from me for now… until the next show…
