    Monday, July 20, 2009 | 01:40 UTC | Posted by woj | Reviews

    This positive review of Friday’s show at the Greek Theatre comes from Soundcheck, the Orange County Register’s music blog. Reviewer Cindy Carcamo appreciated the performance, acknowledging a powerful conclusion to the show. Not sure if it appeared in the actual newspaper or not but I suppose only trainspotters like me care about that stuff anyway!
