The setting was definately a step up from all other venues, on the water front on Governors Island in NYC. The sky was clear, the full moon was huge, at the end of the set of the opening group Raggae Dub All Stars ( I Think) there was an unrelated awesome fireworks show accross the river with NYC as the back drop that we had a perfect view of. I was totally enthralled with the electric palm trees......the visuals for the night were just awesome. Badfish came out and of course just hit it from the start. They always rock their sets and get the crowd into it. We have seen these guys about 8 or 10 times and drove the 3 hours to catch this show.
I highly recommend seeing Badfish, although we got there later in the night and missed an opening band or two, I dont think Scotty Dont played (Badfsh's Originals Band) who rock it also, and I highly reccomend the venue on Governors Island.
Check it all out.
