Bluest Tape

Last week, we gave you the rockin’ part of Spring 2002. This week, we slow it down and look at some of the touching moments from this short and sweet tour through the Southeast. The band, especially Michael Houser, were propelled into greatness by crowds knowing that these shows might be the last time they see the boys from Athens, GA together on stage. Today’s episode highlights the encore from 4/24/02 Savannah, a downcast mid-set “Old Joe” > “This Part of Town” from 4/27/02 at Oak Mountain, and two of the finest, most emotional moments in Panic history, “Don’t Be Denied” from 4/27/02, and the encore from 4/28/02 featuring the crowd-pleaser, “Postcard.” Links below go to whole show streams from Panicstream. 24 April 2002 - Savannah, GA - Civic Center City of Dreams > Mr. Soul Source: Schoeps MK41V > KC5 > M222 > NT222 > AD1000 > HHb PDR-1000, FOB/DFC by Charles Fox 27 April 2002 - Pelham, AL - Oak Mountain Amphitheater Old Joe > This Part of Town Help Me Somebody > Don’t Be Denied Source: {Neumann AK50+
