SmartMuffin 05/13/18 12:50:26 AM #152:	Sleeping in A Jar - seamlessly with ship, pretty quick, almost missed it Florentine Pogen - This was a super fast version that Dweezil claims was actually the original version but went unreleased. Not necessarily a fan of the increase in speed but still played well. "Sleep Napkins" - Another unreleased one, this was basically a mash-up between Sleep Dirt and Black Napkins, interesting but not groundbreaking Doreen - I was excited for this for the vocalist to get another chance to kill it, but they kind of changed up the mix a bit so the vocals were a little different and diminished. She did well but it wasn't amazing. Dirty Love - Redeemed herself a bit here with probably her second strongest performance of the night (no coincidence that the female vocalist shines on ONS songs I guess). But I also feel like they changed the guitar a bit and took a note out of the main riff so it wasn't as cool. Black Page 1 (drum solo) and 2 (full band) - Not much to say about this - drummer nailed it - massive respect Peaches - Standard live performance of peaches. Pretty good. Keep it Greasy - This was another lowlight, just not a favorite song of mine and they seemed almost out of sync, like the band was going fast but the vocalist was normal. Solo was pretty good though. Cheepnis - This was a good performance from the full band. The rhythm guitar player, who in a lot of songs had a really good FZ soundalike voice, actually took the Napoleon Murphy Brock vocals, the chick took the "dont let the poodle bite me" part, while the bass player (who barely had any vocals at all) did the FZ announcer bits I Just Can't Believe I Was Such A Fool - blanking on the actual name for this song, but it was well done, at one point they segued into Two Tickets to Paradise for some reason More Trouble Every Day - This was the closer to the main show, a very faithful adaptation of More Trouble with another great solo, maybe the third best of the night. Also had some "Stayin Alive" bits in it. Encore "Remington Electric Razor" - A jingle that FZ apparently wrote for a commercial that was rejected, mildly entertaining Oh In The Sky - One of those "FZ tries to be annoying" songs. The FZ-esque vocalist went all out high pitched and I'm surprised he didn't lose his voice on this. Dynamo Hum - A very long version of this with more skits, involving the female vocalist getting the pulled pork statue of nolan ryan stuck in her throat, and the band trying to help her dislodge it by playing "You Spin Me Right Round" as she spun around on stage. Once it was successfully disloged, we had "audience participation" with her leading us in some "bow wow" singing during the poodle bites part of the song, and then the other guitar player resumed his role as Johnny Guitar Watson and also led us in some crazy vocals. They finished up this song going back to Dynamo in a very slower and sing-songy style that was pretty unique and interesting. At this point they did the introductions again and said goodnight and I figured it as over But nope, then we got MUFFIN MAN, the ultimate and perfect closer. Great stuff - I took a quick video here and will try to post it to FB if I can. Seriously, great show.
