| So I Saw Cynic Last Night!
So I saw Cynic, BTBAM, Devin Townsend, and Scale the
Summit last
night! It was the last night of the Great Misdirect
Tour, and it was an awesome show. | 1 | Scale the Summit
They were decent. The sound guy had the bass turned of WAY to loud.
They pissed me off later in the show when some of the members kept
walking onto the side of the stage during Cynic's set to watch. It was really
distracting, and I was ready to pull a Christian Bale on them. | 2 | Devin Townsend
He was awesome. He really knows how to put on a show. I had not really
listened to him previously, so I was going to buy Addicted! at the show, but
it didn't look like they had it. He was hilarious, he kept referring to us as
"babies". | 3 | Cynic
This was who I was there to see. And oh my god they were incredible. They
had these cool sound clips in between some of their songs. they are really
layed back on stage, Paul even had us do a yoga move. XD It was
awesome. And I got a Cynic t-shirt with the Traced in Air artwork on it. | 4 | Cynic setlist: | 5 | Nunc Fluens | 6 | The Space for This | 7 | Evolutionary Sleeper | 8 | Celestial Voyage | 9 | A New Song!
They played a new song. He said the name, but I didn't really hear it. But
according to tckslchs, the song is called "Wheels Within Wheels" | 10 | Adam's Murmur | 11 | King of Those Who Know | 12 | Integral Birth | 13 | Between the Buried and Me
They were good. I really enjoyed it, but seeing them live made me realize
how much they can over-play. It was still cool to see them though. Their set
was a little long, at an hour and 45 min. They played a lot of songs, including
four 13min+ songs. They sure put on a great show though. | |

02.07.10 | Was anyone else at this show last night? At The Fillmore in NC?
Or did anyone else go to a different date on this tour? What did you think? | Thor
02.07.10 | Thor was there, and I just posted the BTBAM and Cynic set lists. lol | tckslchs
02.07.10 | I saw them last Sunday in Philadelphia and Cynic put on an unreal show. The new song is called Wheels Within Wheels, I think.
BTBAM was good but they bored me with their song list. Like you previously mentioned, too many lengthy songs for an hour and a half set. Still a bunch of talented musicians nonetheless, just not my cup of tea anymore. | HeadbangMastermind93
02.07.10 | i went to the show in St. Pete Fla...I didnt think Cynic was very good but i'd never heard them before so...ya...I was there to see BTBAM anyway :P | BenX02
02.07.10 | Pretty much my thoughts exactly tckslchs. Their show was unreal.
Oh and thanks for the song title, I'll change that in my list. | Epilogue
02.07.10 | "pull a Christan Bale" lol
When I went to this tour, I wasn't too excited for BTBAM, but they really stole the show. I can stand/enjoy them much more live than on record. |
