[atlantaprog] Re: NARAS, Umphree's McGee

After you left they played a Norwegian Wood/Kashmir medley, and Metallica's And 
Justice For All.  Other covers were the DB tune and a Chick Corea song.  
Finished around 1:30.

Well, uh, actually, their second set WAS quite a bit more adventurous 
and proggy than their first... very much so. I suspect this is in 
keeping with the jam-band tradition. I had to leave before the set was 
over (I left at 1 am! Can't say they didn't give the audience their 
money's worth).

Interesting side note re. cover toons - UM post every set list from 
every show they play on their website. yeah, we were "treated" to Black 
Water (I HATE that song!!!), but other cities were treated to Baba 
O'Riellly, Kashmir, Burning Down the House, etc.
