They started off OK, but then Cassie put the suffering in suffering jukebox with some terribly loud, out of key "singing." After that, they seemed to sort of digress into a strange state. DB was constantly fiddling with his earpiece and seemed pretty drunk. The former drummer also seemed very out of practice on the set after giving a rambling wedding-like speech for 5+ minutes. Probably won't see them live again and will just enjoy they albums, which are fantastic. The studio does wonders for them. I’m a huge fan of the Silver Jew’s, but this show was not very good at all.
