Having attended numerous FL shows, I have to say that the '09 New Years Eve Freakout was something special. The set list on the regular part of the show was nothing short of phenomenal...a wonderful mixture of the songs we all like to sing along to, as well as cuts from the new CD (just the right amount) and a few others they rarely play live (what a treat).
Then the magic happened...the double whipped cream with two cherries on top was when they combined with Star Death and White Dwarves to perform Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon in it's entirety (with recorded support by Henry Rollins and Peaches). Not only did they Lipsicize the music in a way that paid tribute, but made it their own--the show itself was spectacular.
Hats off to Wayne, Kliff, Michael, and genius Steven (and everyone else involved)...and many many thanks for the best New Years experience of my 53 years on this rock.
