    Cory’s audience reacts to the music like a new Smash Bros character is being revealed or something. Incredible. And oh my god that Steely Dan sounding guitar solo really hit

    • @levondarratt787

      Crazy that in 2022 there's still a market for jazz fusion z which is what this is. Great.

      @@levondarratt787 I agree. I just attended my 3rd consecutive Snarky Puppy concert in my city about a month ago and it was completely sold out with everyone going nuts during the solos and just in general . Fusion is very much alive and doing well these days! I also have tickets for Cory again this coming February. It will be my 4th time seeing him and I can't wait!

    Every musician with in-ear monitor, Cory and every horn with wireless mic kit and tablets, amazing mixdown, insanely tight performance. Those guys are on fire!!! Absolutely professional

      Their live sound could go direct to record every time. Breath sounds and key click from the sax? That’s good audio.

    • @GoesToShows
      @GoesToShows Год назад

      Funny thing is I was in the balcony for this show and it sounded AWFUL. The snare drum drowned out the entire band and the horns sounded awful. Shame really.

      Is tone not a technique?

    • @mikerobinson9030
      @mikerobinson9030 2 года назад +5

      Yes, universally - music is an expression of feelin. Too much attention to detail / technique can detract from the "feel". This detraction / distraction began with the invention of annotated sheet music.

    • @adm_ezri

    And the breakdown just before the KG solo is Petar and Sonny at their filthiest, followed by the usual KG brillance.

  • @TheStardustConspiracy
    @TheStardustConspiracy 2 года назад +28

    I’m in love with this extended version! Smokeshow is my favorite song from Cory and the way they added a solo moment for the sax, guitar and piano was absolutely incredible!!

  • @grahamconnell4099

      We we standing near the FOH mix console and noticed that the guy mixing never took off his headphones. Might be why he didn’t notice the low end drone washing out the sound. Great first set with Sierra Hull but they lost me in the second set when they eschewed the funk and featured a tired vocalist.

    @cowbellthunder 2 года назад +6

    I’ll remember a lot from this show. 1) Eddie was on a heater this entire show, and from the audience it sounded like the band was cheering him on. Really cool to hear it here. 2) Lampley/Negah bringing the “weekend band energy”, opening with Assassin had everyone onstage leaning forward on every beat. 3) Antwaun. What else is there to say, the man cannot disappoint. 4) Petar was beyond gracious chatting before the show, and I couldn’t be happier for all y’all’s success.

    I love pretty much anything Cory does, but one of the reasons I particularly like the live shows is that, generally, you can hear Nêgah whereas she tends to be really low in the mix on the Cory and the Wongnotes studio sessions.

    PS-Loved the old-school synth solo. Nothing like a player who tweaks waveforms on the fly for maximum groove. Outstanding!!
