Show Notes: The Big Wu Ma Fucka!!! OK.. I've literally made every Wu show this spring. What I've seen in the recent run has been a band that are back on the same page. They're having fun. They're getting along. The energy is back and you can feel it in the shows. That has been improving with each show and damn this one takes the cake. Best Big Wu show in ages. Aberdeen brings out something special in this band and this show really proved it. The feedback loop between the band and crowd was tight and y'all get the benefit. Nate got broken at the end of the show. Not sure how (I really didn't drink that much) but I got really friendly with the bathroom for the end. Thanks to Big Wu engineer Andy Frey for tearing down my rig and Thanks to Goldwave for caching everything on disk so when my laptop had the power pulled on it I was able to recover the file and we didn't lose the second half of the show. 8-} Peace and Wu Enjoy! Nate
