Re: Portland, ME - 7/27
Funny you should mention the groove, Crusty, because that's the best way I've come up with to describe the differences between the shows: Hartford rocked, Portland was more like an extended groove, until the point at it rocked the fuck out (see my description of the "encore" in my previous post).

Much appreciated, folks. I'd want to hear if it missed the boat, as well - I don't come here for rubdowns.
Hey - if any of this stuff should be tucked somewhere else instead of hogging up its own thread, go for it, by all means.
Apart from all that: extry gravy for all!
