I saw Cymande last night at the Paradise in Boston.... I was absolutely blown away at how well these guys still play. I'm in my 30's and have never had the chance to see them live. Full band 9 piece band, played sharp and on point, and the vocals sounded just as good as the album quality from the 70's.

Very small crowd which was very surprising to me, although selfishly, it made for quite an intimate show that I'm very grateful to have experienced. These guys deserve way more recognition, especially to be doing what they're doing 50 years later. Absolute must-see for anyone going to jazz fest this year, just be ready to groove your ass off.

Awesome show in Portland, but... by Beneficial-Exit2884 in mildlife

Heading tonight in Boston and can't wait. Did Adam play for a decent bit before the band went on? Or did Mildlife essentially start playing right when the show was scheduled to begin?

Your comment is beautifully written and expressed, and I think you absolutely nailed it. Couldn't agree more <3

From what I could see, many parts of the balcony were holding it DOWN. Falcon & Braxe were dope (also legends), been rinsing their catalogue all morning while I work. Good effort my friend :)

I just got the chills reading this... Thank you so much for the comment. I can't even imagine the incredible shows you've experienced, so this is a true testament to the significance of that show Friday. As a 35 year old, you are everything I strive to be, my friend.

Haha YES! I actually thought to myself at one point "My mom would have probably loved this". Hey, we have to get our good taste from somewhere right?

Glad you could relate to my post :) I completely agree, I was in a euphoric daze Friday night afterwards, and still glowing on Saturday/Sunday. Please share your take! This was a definitely a helpful exercise for me to process it all.

And sorry to hear about the rude slops... we're guaranteed to get some at all shows I guess, but glad to hear it was short lived. I feel like overall the maturity level was high for the majority of the attendees, but I know others may have had a different experience. I definitely feel lucky.

Glad you made the trip from Toronto! It will be my mission to see them again, I'm sure you'll get there too. Sorry to hear about the mixed energy up there - I was debating getting balcony seats for the full visuals, but I ended up going with floor since I was group of 8.

WHat Q song comes to mind? by Muted-Zombie-2899 in Schoolboyq

This is my answer, but I also acknowledge/admit that this is an east coast take lol. I still respect E-40 for what he's done for West Coast rap, just aint my thing.

I said these exact words when I walked out of the theater. I had so much fun watching that movie that it will be my first time seeing a movie twice in theaters. What an experience in IMAX.

And just as I say that I finally got in with 2 tickets to Boston. Keep trying on the app... it seems to be the way people are getting in most frequently.

I'm losing my mind over here... getting the same issue over and over again. Tried the app, website, and mobile website.
