i was late to the show. i walked in on the beginning of a beautiful version of WeAllKnow. were there many tunes before that?
then he brought the band out.
the band kinda bummed me out. not enough devendra. his solo shows seem like they are on a more serious psychedelic vibe. the band was goofy and lame except the drummer and the guitar player on the left-Noah- i believe. he was playing interesting and subltly, giving Devendra his space. the bass player and vetiver guy were pretty distracting.
overall good show, but no where near as powerful as the last 3 or 4 times he played in SF.
just my 2 cents....

Re: devendra in SF
Mon, November 22, 2004 - 9:08 AMHello, we were there too :) I thought it was great, I've seen Devendra Banhart so many times, it was cool to see him a different way: full electric rock show, woo! We were up front by the Viking Moses guy and you're right, he's a ham, he was singing so loud that even without a mic he was drowning Devendra out! (But I love Andy's voice and playing and think they're really complementary). I'm always struck by the spirit of graciousness and generosity at these shows and try to pass a little bit of that on. We're so fortunate to be here in SF.
Oh and by the way I think you didn't miss more than the start of that song.
