- | ## Notes | ||
- | |||
- | This list was tough, let me tell you. For starters, like the majority of you, I don't speak a word of Chichewa, so all that jibber-jabber written up there in the setlist is my best attempt at teasing out key phonemes from the initial line or chorus of each song. Not that helpful, in retrospect, but good for a laugh over how my obsession drives me to such idiotic ends! Secondly, I don't recall that the band members were ever introduced, so the personnel list above, compiled from their records, is also suspect. That leaves very little but the timing and song count as accurate, reliable info. Oh well, best I can do for today! | ||

- | How was the set? The boys certainly earned an A+,for effort, and their enthusiasm was catchy too -- by the second or third tune they had a couple hundred people dancing up front -- pretty good considering that this was the third day of broiling sun. The mouse boys started out real natty in shiny track suits with flashy piping, but as they worked through their setlist, they shed layer upon layer ... first to white t's or tanks, then to glistening skin. Several of the boys were athletic enough to jump down off the stage (an 8 or 9-ft drop), the run about in the crowd with the wireless mic, singing, testifying, and slapping skin with the audience. Very groovy. And even more amazing to see them scamper back up on the stage. True-life parkour -- no stairs necessary when you can run up walls like a mouse, boy! | ||

- | I'm glad to have caught this set, and just as glad that it was short, because truth be told, the amount we got was plenty for my attention span. Hopefully they' | ||
