The New Mastersounds: San Fran '08

A scorching hot show from the Brit super-funksters formerly known as "The Mastersounds".

They easily give anyone in the modern era of groove music a serious run for the money - no doubt about that. Sharp as an English tongue and as raw as The J.B.'s in their prime, the post-Jam Cruise San Fran gig is quite a dose of NMS's medicine. The Bay Area's own Martin Fiero stops by to assist with a little saxophone work during the second half, and greatness ensues.

These cats is mean.

An absurdly good show from start to finish, the first half features Dominik Lalli of Big Gigantic on Sax as well as harmonizing back-up vocals from Boulder's own Black Swan Singers. The second set is a full-on Railroad Earth get down.

The String Cheese Incident: Red Rocks

It was a triumphant return to the stage for the Cheese gang and their fans this past weekend in Colorado, with 3 nights of music that saw each performance get better as the days went on. Highlights include the first evenings "Shine", the old school Set 1 on Saturday (and the perfect Police cover), and Sunday's "Little Hands > Dudley's" and the BIG "Lands End > Glory Chords".

Idaho For Panic

All the way on the other side of the land of the free, Panic was quietly celebrating our nations independence with two under the radar shows in Idaho. The Botanical Garden sits right on the site of Boise's old state prison, and you can see a nice theme develop out of that. Then in typical Panic fashion the "Lawyers" drops the next night.

Go Panic.

E: Boogie On Reggae Woman

From the first notes of "Llama", it should have been very apparent how phishy the 4th of July weekend shows would be. The bands return to the southland reinforced just how ambidextrious the boys still are, with Raleigh's highlights moving around from the ridiculous "Light Up Or Leave Me Alone > Free" in the second set to the dance funk encore of Stevie's "Boogie On Reggae Woman".

Don't sleep on the "Jim > Moma" either.

Charlotte got right back into it with the years only "Buried Alive" - then Phish proceeded to nail down a fantastic set 1 before taking the Verizon Wireless Center to outer-space with set 2's "Carini > Fuck Your Face > 2001 > YEM". First FYF since '87 - and we got a Lizards taboot.

E: Sleeping Monkey, Tweezer Reprise

It doesn't get much better than that first set. Strong contender for best "Gin" of the 3.0 era, the return of McGrupp and a "Sanity > Antelope" set closer. As far as the set 2 goes, it's all about the "Tweezer > Slave".

The Allman Brothers: New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival

ABB closed out the first weekend with a laid back sunset gig, leaving the Jazz Fest faithful with just enough juice to stumble out into the night ahead. Gregg and Co. showed some love to Thomson, Georgia's upcoming Blind Willie Festival, and then kept on down HW 25 with a rockin' "Statesboro Blues". Even though Derek's broken ankle kept him on his ass for most of the show, he played like a man possessed with the uncontrollable spirit. Big long "Whipping Post" too.

Widespread Panic: Wakarusa

A truly psychedelic outing from the Panic boys, this massive one setter had a hard time deciding between an earthquake dance party and a glue-you-to-the-Arkansas-dirt Jimmy Herring shred-fest. Nearly 3 hours of non-stop intensity, the mainstage turned into a madhouse and quickly became rendezvous for all those folks who had been patiently pre-gaming for this one. If the weekend's previous headliners were liftoff - this was the thunderous return to Earth.

See you in Chicago.

Trey Anastasio Band: The Warfield 2003

In May of 2003, The Trey Band hit the road for a small 6 city run before the big Phish Summer tour. At the Warfield gig, Big Red managed to talk old friend Carlos Santana to sit in for a few tunes in the first set - and then the entire second. They get to groove out one of the longest Way I Feel's that I've ever heard and the Mr. Completely clocks in at around half an hour. And then to top it off they encore with a Beastie Boys cover? Get some.
