yet again let me thank the taper for taking the time to tape this sweet sts9 NYE run. Interplanetary Escape Vehicle first set was a cool concept but i thought the set didnt quite take off like the first 2 nights. Although I was so stoked to here it, quests was kinda rusty (3.5 years since last one i think). edit: it sounds like there may be some music missing during grow from the 4:43 mark. Unless STS9 just really fucked something up ;) 3rd night walterbedingfield9 2008-02-20 00:56:30 2008-01-21 23:30:58 4 Sounds just like the Tabby. Thanks!

Although the Moonsocket, Hubble, and 4 Year Puma were ridamndiculous!!! Evasive without Kamuy is somewhat of a tease for me. Did't catch the Kamuy the night before. Still, Tribe was truly sick as always!!! Unbelievable moments Frank White 2008-02-05 09:07:13 2008-02-05 09:07:13 4 This show was one of the Sickest Tribe shows I have attended....The Moonsocket, Tooth, Peoples,and Baraka are straight kill......The enery in the Tabby was unreal....

Although they played one of the best moonsockets ive heard and some other solid tracks the show didnt have the same umph as the rest of the run. Just OK tunit420 2008-04-11 00:05:44 2008-04-11 00:05:44 4 first set was overall very quality stuff with some rare songs that came with the album cover (H.B. and Quests). Highlights from the first set were Moonsockets, Wika, Tap In, and a smokin Evasive Maneuvers (stand alone evasives are the way to go!) second the set had its moments , and had a choice Baraka encore. STS9 nailed the segue from Tooth into This, Us and Open E was hands down the energy high point. also a nice aimlessly (which i used to like more). Solid 4.5 coc225 2008-04-22 03:18:57 2008-04-22 03:18:57 5 STS9 at the Tabernacle is one of those experiences that you are just glad to be a part of every winter in Atlanta. Others will always pack Phillips Arena to hopefully catch a glimpse of of John Bell and that WSP magic, but the people that are 'in the know' end up at the Tabernacle. WELL worth the download for the 1st set alone, they cover their first album Interplanetary Escape Vehicle (IEV) in its' entirety. They have come a LONG way from their early career (99'-02') which relied heavily on Drum&Bass and Improv during their concerts. During this time period STS9 had a much slimmer rotation of songs which allowed them to really open up, and they created some beautiful improvisations. However, there new material can best be described as GANG BUSTER. There new album Peaceblaster is a real solid showing for the band. The first set opened with a lot of energy with MoonSockets. I personally liked Wika Chikana best in that set, but everything after 4 Year Puma is essential listening, especially the Evasive Maneuvers! They paired Tooth and This, Us to kick off a high energy 2nd Set. They originally were going to open with Water Song, as was written on the setlist, but they wanted to bring a lot of energy I suppose. It worked, and the following Grow/Open E was the easy highlight of the set. Peoples was good, but check out the 12/30/06 version for a true monster. Baraka tied up a great show in Ga. It was a tale of two sets. One full of early and rare classics and the latter encompassing the current direction of STS9. Great...not just OK rwCason-1982- 2008-07-15 06:08:25 2008-07-15 06:08:25 5 7 4.57
