It was #55ish. Let me tell ya what..that Sand was/is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have laid ears on. The one thing that I think is sorta lost on folks is that it really started with Tube. Trey actually took a request & you can hear it. it was real gooey. then He says, "well I guess we should (or have to) play this one now and launch into the other Tube. (Last?) anyways it closed out the set funky. so Sand followed in that vein. I was in the VIP section the whole show, except for Sand coz I was up on the lawn havin a smoke. It was that hot up there too. They are playing well, but still gettin their legs. there have been some great shows & others where they flub, but there is no better show (lights as a huge part CK5) out there period. & for $49.50??? Listen to the Sand. The Tweezer too. oh & don't forget the 4 song encore. peace out I was in Philly. It was #55ish.

Same with Light. Jury's still out for me, and it's making it a lot more enjoyable to not feel the need to pass judgment.
