I was at the Mr. Small’s Pittsburgh show, so I have to say attendance bias. But honestly, of the 3 show run I caught (CLE → CBUS → PITT), I thought Pittsburgh was the weakest.

Although giving it a listen again, who the hell else starts the show with a drum solo haha.

And it was cool to catch The Book and D-Day…

And… that Float Along really has yet to be beat at a closer for me personally. Of any song I’ve heard yet.

OK, it was a pretty great show. And I’ll guarantee you they only play a 700 person show in Europe after this tour…

Awesome stuff! I have been relistening to most of the 2022 shows and it’s been fun to see them introduce new material and jams as the year went on…I swear they were teasing Extinction’s “I can see everything” line in a couple of those shows.

Well if you find the clips and need someone to verify, post it here in the forums. We have a setlist team that tries to hunt down things like that

Brent’s Recs posts are honestly one of my fav features of .net …from being primarily an album listener in 2015 to trying to synthesize what recordings stand out in 2024 considering the amt of material out there is just too daunting. it’s obv kglw’s dick’s pics. I listen to all of them. much thanks!!

Speaking of… @Gizzhenge think it’s about time for our next volume?

I don’t know. I’m thinking nothing until early next year. Everyone is focused on latest US tour recordings and then upcoming tour, including me. There is also a finite number of shows left since shows are streaming now (thank you King Gizz!) I want to get a good handle on what’s left. Hope that makes sense.

Check out the latest edition of Brent’s Recs: Brent's Recs, Vol. 8: Many Thanks, and a Plea

In this edition, Brent takes a hopeful stance as he highlights some historic shows that he hopes may some day find full releases. Let us know which shows you’d like to hear in full. Brent follows that with five recommendations of some killer recordings from 2018-2024. As always, many thanks to the tapers. KGLW.net also offers our gratitude to the archivists and historians who freely give so much to this community. We couldn’t do what we do without them.

Damn. You hit the mark so hard with the intro to this article. spring '22 was huge for me too. I’d seen them in Boulder at the Fox (which is CRAZY, that theater is tiny, and so intimate, and was only a few blocks from my house at the time) October '17 and had long been waiting to see them again. Dripping Tap had just come out, which blew my mind (who releases an EIGHTEEN minute single??? hahaha, well the Osees, but WHO ELSE??), and they were playing Phoenix and Tucson two nights in a row. I’d never seen a band two nights in a row but I had a hunch they’d be different setlists.

4/20 in Tucson was such a fucking awesome show. The Rialto is also pretty small, and I was able to bike to that show from my house, so I had that kind of home-field, convenience advantage for having a good time. THE BOTTOM LINE, however, is those two shows had me so stoked on Gizzard once again that I too, considered starting a phish.net for gizzard fans. And also felt compelled to write an essay about how sick king gizzard is.

I had a buddy help me get a website picked out, but it was way out of my league and I never followed through with it. You guys nailed it and kglw.net is better than i could have imagined. I did write the essay, but it was manic and all over the place and after the rough draft I never tried re-writing it. I believe I also emailed it to my parents and two siblings to see what they thought and no one ever responded which caused me to think it was garbage HAHA. Anyhow. Nice read, thanks for sharing!

@Dr_TurkeymanMD Your essay sounds like it could find its home on our blog. What do you say? Reach out if you’d like our editorial team to give it a read.

Also have to say thanks so much for your thoughtful response to Brent’s Recs and your compliments on the site itself. What’s made this website what it is has been the people who have come together in common cause. We’d love to have you as a contributor if you’d like. If you’d rather not, we’re just glad to have you here.

DEFINITELY! As KGLW.net came to fruition I remember thinking ‘maybe i should dig that essay out, polish it up, and send it over’

I’ll will give it a look soon. I’d consider contributing more often too, if I again feel compelled to share something of worth!

Hit me up whenever you have a draft you’d like us to read. No need for it to be super polished. We’re glad to read what you’ve got now and give you some feedback.
