[bubbles135790]

slam this tight lil ass =]? K

[RapturousVerbatim]

anyone else remember seeing Thomas pridgen smoking a blunt back there while the free jammed in between songs?

[majog001]

hahaha I totally remember that... I remember turning to my buddy and being like "is that a fatty j he's smokin back there?!" haha

[mosesh06]

i remember everyone was just in aww while this was played... amazing.

[actappalled12]

aw yeah. i was at this show. like right behind the person who filmed this apparently. marcel and pridgen's smoke clouds were colossal.

[FRevlBox]

that show was fucking amazing. first volta show, and on 420 to top it off. i was right in the front too. mmmhmmmhmmm.

[rob50599]

yea the acoustics definitely sucked at that show. if i didn't know the song already i couldn't tell what was being played. it was still cool though, minus all the fucked up kids getting sweat all over me.

[timspencer619]

yeah i saw them at soma in san diego it was a badass show but the venue used to be a movie theater so the acoustics were terrible.

[optical76]

remember when cedric bashed the fans over with the mic stand...i got shot in the eye with a fragment of plastic. but i got two pics and a setlist.

[hunnybunny21]

when the fuck did that happen?!

since you have the setlist...was day of baphomets played? i was mashed.

[optical76]

ya know, i dont think they played baphomets. i sold the set list so im not entirely sure. i was drunk too and after a while most of the music sounded the same toward the end. lol

[hunnybunny21]

IT TOTALLY DID hahahah

the acoustics in that place suck so hard and there was so much weed...all i truly remember was vismund

[optical76]

i thought the sound was ok. they bring their own PA system. before a few years ago the Aragon sounds were pretty bad. seems like they redid their setup.

i didn't care though, the show gave me chills the whole time...it was cool to look up at that kick ass cosmic mural on the ceiling and just zone out.

[killtheidealist]

"there was so much weed"

is that a complaint? look at the date!

[hunnybunny21]

obviously not, sir!

i like the mars volta, i think that says it all. :)

[Lucretius58]

I can truthfully say now that I smoked weed with the mars volta! awesome! 420 '08!

[ELFevout]
