well, I missed half the show, but Kayo Dot had a prime spot (3rd) and we got there just as they were tuning up (so, like, 20 min before they played).

setlist:
Marathon
Blue Lambency Downward
Pitcher of Summer
Gemini Becoming the Tripod

Kayo Dot is pretty stripped down nowadays (5 members played this show) but still dominate live. I thought Toby was going to blow a blood vessel during Gemini--it was that intense. I guess they played such an old setlist because of the crowd--all Hydra Head metal dudes waiting for Pelican? really well done show.

Pelican was good, too, much better than last time--very energetic, not boring (although the guy ahead of me did fall asleep on his feet 2x during the show), not-terrible drumming.
