INCUBUS - The Greek Theater Los Angeles, Ca. 7-11-07

It was the day of the show and I wanted to go really bad, it was on my mind all day at work.

I was listening to LIGHT GRENEADES since its release in November 2006.

I had gone to see Incubus at the Los Angeles Fourm previously A Crow Left Of The Murder Tour.


I did'nt want to miss them in such and intimate venue.
I looked on Ebay and found some pit tickets for a very reasonable price somewhere around $200 for the pair so I bought them. I printed them out and we were on our way to see what was one of the greatest shows I have ever attended.

As you can see I was lucky enough to get the set-list at the end of the show.

If your an Incubus fan you can see this was an excellent set.

Amazing in fact.

This was going to be something completely different from all the other shows I had been to. Being that close and acutally watching the show. I've been to other shows in the pit and you you really cant watch with all the energy around you. But I knew there wouldnt be any moshing in fact no one ever even got close to me all night it was awesome.

We got there in plenty of time to secure a spot up against the railing on the side of the bass player Ben Kenney. I would have much rather been in front of the guitar player Mike Einzinger. The more I listen to Incubus I realize how talented he is. The way he use effects to create sounds from his guitar and plain old talent.

Brandon Boyd is in my opinion the best singer in rock music today. Pitch, tone and vocal style can not be matched by any other since Robert Plant.

All I know is that standing there so close made me feel like no other show except John Frusciante @ The Roxy but that is another story soon to come.

The sound was amazing the performance was great and the setlist near perfect since im not a big fan of there early stuff.
