First night of the 2016 Masters of Percussion spring tour of 18 shows, and another one where my laziness at neglecting to write much in the way of show notes results in a worthless setlist and a crappy summary: the times are all accurate for indicating that something happened, and the descriptions are also accurate at relating a portion of the show, but the two lists are not matched to each other as they should be, doh!

Was it a good show? Heck yeah, as long as you like hearing drums, drums, and more drums. Do I need to go again? Well, uh, yeah, but not for another year or two!

Finished the night with an hour or so of music from Jenna Mammina and friends at Lungomare!
