What a Night!!
by Somaodio on 11/26/10Magic Bag - FerndaleEven missing a key piece of the trio this band still managed too blow me away. I love Morphine and they haven't lost a step as far as I am concerned. The new guy Jeremy Lyons is a nice fill in for the late Mark Sandman. Their set consisted of old favorites and a few new bluesy collaborations with Lyons. The venue itself was cozy and the perfect backdrop to this amazing collection of Low-Rock tunes. Maybe only 100+ people were on hand for this special event. If you are one of us, consider yourself lucky. They played 2 whole sets that lasted almost three and a half hours. The only reason the show didn't last longer was because the venue told them it was time to quit. We tried to get an encore going, but instead of coming out to play they came out and greeted all those still cheering for another song. I got to hug and shake all of the band members hands. What a magical night. One I will never forget
