I just gotta toot my bloody horn and say thems bass tones is hot as f*&#. Peep the destructive one-note bombs of The Big Comedown, for instance.

Good times. Three YEARS ago! Seems like yesterday...

I missed that tour due to a variety of factors:(..Having the film is a poor substitute I am sure but I have to say I was really captivated by the performance and watched it in parts from beginning to end. The way you orchestrated leaving the stage at the end of "In This Twilight" is one of the classsiest most repectful ways I have seen to end a concert. Kudos for great bass tone and foundation throughout...wow..true professionals and great synthesis of visual, audio, etc...
 
Thanks all... what a landmark it was. In retrospect, all of us, Trent included, feel both proud and privileged to have done it. Yeah, I miss it. Of course - transitioning from living that every day back to normal life is insane. Especially because I walked off those tours into some very heavy personal life "quicksand", since all taken care of. So now, I find myself in a position of considering tours again, just to keep my performance jones remotely satisfied. But what could compare to Lights in the Sky? Simply put, nothing can.
