Night 2 performance sounds F'n phenomenal; lifeless it is NOT...
Pretty impressed so far. I miss Matt and Mark too (always Paul), but Mitchell Froom is a Rolls Royce compared to Mark's Mercedes on Keys (sorry but it's true). In terms of drumming Elroy is much cleaner and closer to Paul original style than Matt ever was. I love Matt's playing, but I always had issues with his 60's retro-vibe especially with his California fill-ins (spending way too much time on the hi-hat and snare) and (on most songs) not enough toms.
