This show was blessed by John Popper's presence, but,
alas, not on the Tweezer. (the Possum had a "We wish
you a merry Xmas" ending lick by Trey, btw) Anyway,
there's a mind-bogglingly awe-inspiring segue into
this Tweezer out of Squirming Coil!! At roughly 11
minutes, this may be considered to be a more or less
average Tweezer, lengthwise, BUT IT INCLUDED MANTECA,
and a great, funky one at that.. Manteca was
definitely the theme throughout.. Not only was the
song performed entirely, but it was bracketed by
tweezeresque segues. The slow, typical dying out
Tweezer ending occurred, akin to the Ordinary Old
Tweezer Ending, then the Tweezer theme jumped back
for a final touch on the theme (without lyrics).. I
would rate this Manteca Tweezer about a 6. (I'm a
sucker for Manteca) (B)
remember,
TWO CENTS
