Show Notes: WYE! Absolute Gruv, Hyentyte and God Johnson opening. Holy Cow. This was the Wu's final of very few shows this year and the wait was worth it. The guys have been having fun practicing and really brough a great energy to the stage. Southern Energy with 4 GUITARS! (Dean Mcgraw and Vinnie from Hyentyte + Flad and Caz) WOW! nutz. Red Sky got weird.. think brownie jam weird only I don't think there were any brownies on stage.. hmm.. damn fine. Only one thing bugs me with the sound. 3/4 of this 2 hour set sound fantastik. The about half an hour to the end of the show the levels and quality went out the window. I have done my best to compensate but really don't know. I think Trocs may have set a 1:30 curfew and dropped the PA harshly at that point.. only explanation I can come up with as my rig didn't change. Hmm.. Damn the man!! Happy Wu Years!!! Enjoy! -Nate
