The morning after. The first time that I have actually wanted to be awake in a while. But how could I not be, for APC has awakened me indefinitely. The CD is playing continuously as I sit here in front of you, searching, feeling, living---alive. Its funny, by now you'd think I'd have had enough, but I find myself begging for more, penetrated by the rythym, alive within the melodies. I did not see a "show" last night, but rather a performance. I did not listen to a "concert," but rather beared witness to the genius of five musicians, five artists willing to share a piece of themselves with all of us. I was fortunate enough to come face to face with Maynard, although I was not able to fully experience my time with him. Territorial as he was, understandable when a bus becomes your home for 3 months on end, I only wanted to invite Maynard and the rest of APC to recieve thanks in appreciation of their efforts on and off-stage as artists, as promoters of purity through creation, imagin

Great show guys!!! That's all I can say. This was the first concert of any kind that I had been to and I would have to say that it will probably be my most memorable. The guitars, along with Maynards powerful voice made it a breathtaking experience. I definitely thought the added bit of humor by Maynard was a good addition too. Sorry about the penis mishap Josh. ;) The one thing I didn't like was the security guards. They were assholes and they were everywhere. I took one shitty picture and the assholes took my camera. Oh well, next time I'll know better. I'll say it again...great show!!! And Maynard, I loved your blinking underwear....GREAT addition. ;)
Thanks for such a great show. Come back soon!!!

What an amazing show. A big mix between
new material, cover songs and stuff from
mer de noms. Maynard isn't the only
one with a great voice either, all the band
members took turns singing the backup
vocals. Paz has an amazing voice which she
used to emulate the strings that you hear on
the songs on the album. Josh uses
glow in the dark drumsticks.
Maynard came out towards the end wearing
these shorts that were fixed with a bunch of lights.
Cracked me up. What an inspiring show. My favorite
song was Orestes.

A Perfect Circle, you all rocked! It was an excellent set, and Maynard, besides your amazing voice, you looked wonderful in Paz's underoos. I don't know if the floor looked too crowded, but it was awesome, and it didn't matter that the venue was so small. I'm counting down the days until you're all back in Michigan, and now I'm really pissed that I couldn't go to the Grand Rapids show, too.

Billy, Josh, Maynard, Paz, and Troy.... thank you so much. I loved APC Grand Rapids, deltaplex.. and Yipsilanti...that was the quickest change i've ever seen on stage too, nice flashing lights...I'm sorry i missed the ohio show, must have kicked ass, Simply amazing, over and over again Tool and Apc rock. I thought at Yipsilanti the small "fit like a glove" feel it gave, just pounded the bass so hard, so hard .... not in the pit this time, and could still feel the bass, Tool has made my life a perfect circle, wonder if Apc will go to Europe, like Tool, i'd die to make one of those shows.... so the show tonight was a blast,, well yesterday, the pit seems to have two pits, and some standing people, looking very nice, many hot babes, many fine asses... please one more time.... Some dude , when i first got to EMU, i was driving really close to the EMU building where the cop car was outside., and i saw some dude/bum like laying there and i ask if there was a show here, and he yell yea a

What is wrong with people?The crowd at EMU was quite possibly the lamest I have ever see.Just really blah.Sound in that place was awful.Anyway,the band definitely made their own fun.Maynard,you are one hell of a funny man.Poor Josh.I think he should sue over that sex change mishap.Ha! Troy,you gorgeous boy you,what can I say?You are just so damn cool.I love seeing this band live.I've never been disappointed.

One of the best shows I have seen in a long time. Maynard took time out of the show to have a few laughs with the audience at the expense of Ted Nugent. Billy...congratulations on 3rd place and Maynard...thank you for sharing that important tidbit of knowledge with us...I will never FedEx a penis...

Excellent show. Maynard sounded great and the band was tight. The building wasn't the best for sound but the gang made up for it...

Unbelieveable. One of the best concerts I have ever been to. APC has made a fan out of me. Count me among the converted.

I haven't been a "concert goer" for some time being a KSU '90 grad. My music taste as calmed down some , however Tool and APC are very original and are not stuck in the flavor of the month club i.e.: Limp, Korn,etc... The show it self was very good considering they played in a gymnasium ( Why not the Akron Agora?). Covers were kickin', wish they played Diary of a Lovesong. Not a lot of "glitz" that I did enjoy at various concerts at the old Richfield Colisium (Pink Floyd,AC/DC,Kiss, etc..). The music was intense and exciting, very suprised the younger kids weren't more radical the way I recall back in the day.
