Did anyone answer the 'What song was it he borrowed from' question as I also would like to know And I thought I read they were thinking of recording again but I see this is a farewell tour? Oh and am I the only one who thinks their comeback album What If is one of their best? Right up there with Lean Into It for me \m/
What If was outstanding. their last one - not so much (many outside writers, IIRC).
the backstage area of that chinese festival looked weird, felt like a concentration camp or something lol
Lonestar, speaking wise.
Listen to Lonestar and trust him.

One thing I’ve been struck by watching Nick playing this in clips this week is just how much stamina it must take to pull that track off.
Nick's 2nd vlog is up!https://youtu.be/7dfHAGdrODU
Love how Nick shares his experience with playing with a big band like Mr Big and his excitment and all the nerves he had. He's livin' the dream that's for sure.
Mr. Big are in the studio recording new music with Nick D'Virgilio at Sweetwater. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QIZl_l-hqZwhttps://x.com/BillyonBass/status/1736222005823685077?s=20
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

Even when it was first announced, I was pretty confident they were gonna enjoy playing with Nick and wanna do a new album with him, and I'm really not a big fan of theirs in the first place. How much moreso you diehards and the band themselves?
The way Billy phrased it in the tweet is that it is to “commemorate our fairwell tour.” So I’m not sure if it’s a whole new album or if they are just making some bonus tracks for a live album or what. Personally I think Eric Martin has kind of reached a point vocally where I’m not super excited about new material, but it’s fun to see them still having fun doing it. With Nick involved I’m probably more likely to check out a new Mr. Big studio album if that’s what this is. So long answer short, it doesn’t really bother me if they keep going despite having a fair well tour (this was their second one at least anyway).

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I basically write concert reviews here already.
The wife and I saw them last night in Dallas. Awesome show, even saw Andy Timmons seated in the row next to us.

$52 after taxes/fees for the local NJ show, GA onlyIt won't sell out so hoping I can spend a little less either via resale or at the door to knock it down to $40 without the fees.
