The Shrine

(Actually, after Chem Bros, I had to leave before S&JD's show. I was tired and nothing could top Chem Bros' show.) Man, it was fucking awesome! You have to appreciate their job as both mixers and songwriters. They played almost as much of Surrender as they did Come With Us, as well as a few favs from Dig Your Own Hole. Big ass bass (as you'd expect from a concert), and we were on the front row, too. The visuals they had were cool, too. They played every one of my favorite songs. I think the song list went as follows:

Come With Us
Music: Response
Block Rockin' Beats
It Began in Afrika
[mind goes fuzzy on the order, but others include...]
Under the Influence
Star Guitar
The Sunshine Underground
others...

Encore included: My Elastic Eye and The Private Psychidelic Reel. Both caught me off-guard, because I love these songs, and I didn't think they'd play them. BTW, Oakenfold was awesome, too. He actually popped back in on the sidelines to see the end of Chem Bros' set. I just wish I had the energy to see S&JD that day, but I probably wouldn't have gotten enough sleep afterwards anyway, and I had to get out of the hotel at 11PM CST. The whole thing was around 7 hours (including S&JD), which is was worth the $50 a pop, 5 hour drive, standing in the Windy City cold for an hour, driving in the nightmare that is Chicago drivers, etc.</div>
