By far the best show ive ever seen. The energy radiated by the band was enough to reach even the cheap seats in which i was sitting. It's been 16 hours since it ended and im still recovering. p.s. - duluth, mn - anal sex capitol of the world.

Hey, I wanted to compliment you guys on a great performance. I LOVED it! I sat in the third row of the balcony, but it was still great. I wished I had been in the pit when Paz jumped out into the crowd. Maynard, your really know how to put on a performance, in more ways than one. The way you guys did the show, who cares if you don't have fancy pyrotechnics. It would take away from the art of everything else. I thought you guys would save "Judith" for the very end of the performance. I can't wait until your next tour. Are you guys going to tell the public what those symbols mean, or ae they going to be forever a mystery?

The concert at wilkins was the coolest concert i've ever seen. There were so many great songs that no one knew they were going to play, it was a great surprise.
But the best part was after the show, we waited outside till 1:00 AM by the tour bus in hopes we would see the band. They hadn''t planned on coming out but when they saw the 50 or so devoted fans still standing out there they came out to sign our things, shake our hands and talk to us.
I'm a little dissapointed though, all the concerts I will see after this will be boring by comparison!
Thanks for the great show guys!

I have never been to a concert quite as incredible as this. Maynard, Paz, Billy, Josh, and Troy definitley knows how to put on a show. I think that SRC was a good beginning to a great night. The lead singer seemed like she was having fun rocking out and her voice was this distinct wail that was really appealing. She seemed to like to give the finger to the audience and that just gave her her own image. The guitarist seemed like he was having fun--the whole entire band made everyone movie a little bit. Vulcan was one of the best songs performed--strangled was pretty good too. They ended rocking out and then it was time for APC. While the st was being put up--we think we saw then at the top of the ballroom looking from this window--im not sure if it was them but im pretty sure it was them. Me and my buddy were on the side--kind of close to the stage and we somehow made ourselves get all the way to the middle frontish. There were so many jackasses just pushing but we didnt care-

Wow, definitely an excellent show. Snake River Conspiracy was awesome, they were tight and rockin and had a great drummer. Tobey has a good stage presence. APC of course rocked my ass off. My favorite tune, "Thinking of you" was kicked into right after the Renholder opener. I had a couple great crowd surfs during Thinking of you and Judith. Thomas was my favorite song of the night. The band was having a great time, you could tell they loved it - and we did too.

All the reviews of previous shows had complained about the sound quality, but I thought it was great tonight. Small venue, and I was about one section away from dead center. I was a fan of SRC going into the show, but I came out of there a huge fan. The lead singer has a great voice and tons of energy the way she was strutting around the stage working the crowd. APC was, of course, incredible. The lights and backdrop projections were impressive, and the whole glow in the dark set (right down to glowing drumsticks, which really look cool when the lights are down so you can't see the drummer and you just see them flying around hitting stuff) was a cool idea. The tapeworm song, Vacant, sounded a lot better in person than the version I had heard from the Portland show. I made the mistake of reading all the reviews of old shows, so I had already heard about most of the jokes Maynard would tell, including the invention of anal sex in minneapolis and the anal sex contest to be held aft

Wow. What a show. I just got home and am suprized to see all the computer nerds who ran right to their comps to post a review. Im not much different. Anyway.... the show was cool. Snake River was cool. I didnt expect them to be, but they were. Maynard said he'd see us all in a year. Whether it be with Tool or with A Perfect Circle... I'll be looking forward to it. The music is beautiful.... never let that die. See you next year. Look for me.

This had to to be the best live show I have ever seen. APC is amazing live. Snake River wasn't too bad, but that doesn't even compare to APC .The guitar playing was awesome, the drums were incredible, and of course Paz was looking very sexy tonight! You shake those hips girl!! But I can't forget about Maynard., who is without a doubt the best vocalist in rock today, completely blew me away. Great show guys, hope to see you back in MN soon!! Ian

I just got back about an hour ago, and the show was great. As you probably have read, Paz opened the show on violin, playing Renholder and each member of the band came on, one by one. Well, skipping through all the non-important stuff like songs, Maynard took off his pants a few songs in and played the rest of the show in a speedo. Then he talked about how he heard Minneapolis was the birthplace of anal sex, but then corrected himself and said it was Duluth, MN. Whatta character. He also said that there would be a big anal sex party after the show, so I waited around but nobody showed up: ( Maynard then proceeded to talk about how after tonight he was going home and it would be his first time home for any length of time in about 2 years, so he was gonna whip out the porno collection immediately. Later, during a song I believe to be a cover (an APC song probably wouldn't go "I'm happy, hope you're happy too!"), called "Just Keeps on Tickin'", a guy dressed in a bunny suit came on

Amazing night, that's gonna be a hard show to beat.
SRC started a few minutes late and royaly sucked the
thunder-cock. The singer wasn't that bad, i never heard
a chick scream like Pantera before. but the band
themselves were crappy, no solos, no fills. The drummer
did throw his stick way up and attemted to catch it, but
almost fell backwards in the process. I was on the side
so i could really see it.there were these really shitty
bright lights in our eyes, so that didn't make me like
them anymore.
NOW to the band that matters!!
the set list-
Paz solo
Renholder
thinking of you
Magdalena
3 Libras
Brena
Orestes
Tape worm(Fuck Britney Spears in the ass)
Rose
Sleeping Beauty
Over
Thomas
Judith (going back to cali, cali, cali)
Ashes to Ashes(just keep on ticking)
The Hollow
The extra shit written is what maynard anounced
the song as. The band was in high form tonight
Over was a very pumped up jam song, 3 libras had
the beautiful intro, and thomas had a
