Cafe Du Nord, Matthew Good
Last night, out of a small venue on Market Street in San Francisco, Matthew Good performed the third show of his Solo United States Tour. The Cafe Du Nord was a neat place, and sounded great (kudos to the sound engineer). I was in the middle of the 5th row. Though, that implies some well-defined space between each seat and the one in front of it. I was in the 5th chair from the stage. Seating is such an relieving bonus at a mellow show such as this one.
What do I look for in a concert performance that I’ve seen thrice already? Content. And for that, it was nice to hear “Moon Over Marin”. Besides that it was same-old, same-old. Though for someone who was apparently sick (again), performance-wise Matt did a great job. Now, comparing this show to the other times is a difficult task that I don’t plan on attempting. It’s been too long since the Buffalo show and the material last night was too similar for me to be wow-ed into immediately claiming it the best. Let’s just leave the review at: “I was not disappointed at all”.
Since my photos from the show were awful, below is “A Silent Army In The Trees” into “Black Helicopter”:

I’ve been looking for a good video of Silent Army in the Trees since the last tour. Thanks for taking/posting this!
