I was in VIP to your left both nights. Looked like you guys were having a blast. I did for a few moments there fear for Nia as it looked like you were pulling her hair out night 1. Night 2 her hair was still entact so no worries. Hope to see your crew out west early and often. NYE is the best possible run you can catch.
-
@stazone Haha, you have me confused with Billy, Nia's husband. He did not fuck up, indeed Nia survived. It was an amazing two nights. I'm glad we all were able to share them. Say hello at the next show!
-
@FL-AF Gladly. And I pulled a TLDR on your OP. Much love has to be expressed over the sound check. 12/30 was 4 jams. 2 during sound check, set 1 and set 2. Great night for sure.
-
That was a hell of a great review if we don’t say so ourselves. Having been there that was exactly how it went down. Great vibes in PHX.
Peace y’all.
-
@spaffordreviews Thank you! It was indeed an amazing show. See you on the road!

Great review. You paint a beautiful picture of your experience. Congratulations on your sobriety and I’m stoked to hear that other folks who have struggled with addiction have a place to support one another at Spafford shows. Very, very cool.
-
@603Brett Thank you. The entire experience was truly beautiful. See you on the road!
-
Thanks @FL-AF! I love your ability to convey the radical acceptance and magical energy that is this community of open, daring, and wonderfully weird Nerds! Love's the common binding! Hope we get a chance to get down in 2019!

. I wrote earlier about the feelings I get during the music. Palisades is all feelings for me. I get so emotional during this song. It is difficult for me to explain but I think about where I have been and where I am going. My entire life plays out in my head during this song and right at about the time my head might explode the music goes right back into Weasel. More electro funk dance beats. I loved it and so did everyone in the room.

My iPhone just destroyed my long winded review. I’m so pissed! I tip my hat to the author. You can consider me Frorida Nerd now too.
This article was Cameron Crow from Almost Famous and Hunter S Thompson’s Gonzo journalisms combined. I was there with you!
Add to this that I’m a Floridan who went to Arizona State University and you could really say this article was an LSD flashback with Spafford playing in my soul.
It’s writing like this that gets me want to enjoy live music again. (Married with 2 kids)
Thank you for this review. You made me a Spafford fan through and through!!!!
