Wow what a night. One of the best shows I have seen in awhile. Jazzbones was packed out like I have not seen it before. I am still working off of just a few hours of sleep so I am at a little of a loss of words.
Mighty High
When you think of a 'jam band' you probably think of a some guys just getting together in their garage and making some music. Well lets say that Tacoma's own Mighty High still has some of that vibe but also sounds like guys that have a lot of practice under their belt. Their free flowing style worked well with the late dinner crowd at Jazzbones that already had the venue packed out.

Katastro
On tour from Tempe, Arizona, Katastro picked up the irie vibe that Mighty High was exhaling and loaded it up even more. They brought a Reggae/Rock/Hip-Hop vibe that I truly enjoyed as did the as did the dancing crowd at Jazzbones.

The B Foundation
The B Foundation picked up the groove that Katastro had but took us the ocean surf of LA. They are everything you would expect from a SoCal Surf/Rock band and much more. Rocking the house out they had the people grooving their entire set that was almost 90 minuets long.

Northwest Sons
Finishing up the night on a very warmed up stage, some might had even call it baking, was a band that is no stranger to the Jazzbones stage, the Northwest Sons. Trying to remain the hometown hero's after 3 great shows, 2 of them by nationally touring bands is no easy feat but the Sons seem to feed off the irie vibes of a show, and tonight was no exception.

Crazy fan sing/dance along for an encore of 'Northwest Sons' with Jason Moorehead of the B Foundation adding some flows.
Many fans and band members are talking up how good of a show this was last night. The 3 bands not including Mighty High are playing another show tonight at the Studio Seven tonight. This also should be a show to remember.
