Too Much Fun At Far

So its been about 10 years since the boys in Far broke up. I remember hearing that they had broken up the summer before moving away to Humboldt County and was disappointed that I never had the chance to see them live.  So finally I had my chance and I must say the sold out show at Empire last Thursday January 15th was most festive maybe even too festive for me.  I started out the evening knocking a few cold ones back at my friends house and then had a late sushi dinner at Rickshaws. Far setlist from Empire Now I’m all about sushi don’t get me wrong but as some of you drinkers might know its not the best base for a night that might involve the consumption of many strong drinks.  In anycase 12 beers later maybe a few shots give or take…I found myself in the mix at Empire for the sold out show.  I had a kick ass time that night just feeling the vibe of the entire crowd, who like me had been waiting for a few years to see the reformation of this band.    In my altered state I was able to snag some footage and with the assistance of friends grab the set list.  I must state for the record the next day I felt like I had been kicked in the face by a small calf or maybe mauled a wildcat hiding in the bushes on the corner of R and 14th street but it was all worth it to catch FAR.
