We're Back & Hitting 'em with the Haymaker! One of the band's most iconic shows of all time. Hear what @BarberShreds has to say when reliving his historical moment in the history of the Disco Biscuits! Haymakers All Day, Barber's Back w/ a play by play of 10/05/2002 @ Haymaker Music Festival at Oakley Farm in Spotsylvania, VA. "This festival took place during the height of the D.C. Sniper shootings in Virginia just off of I-95. The Disco Biscuits were the only late-night act on their own secondary woods stage. Ussing the Rich Steele Remaster of John Madigan’s AUD source, it’s one of the best audience pulled Disco Biscuit recordings of all time."

0/5/02 – Set II – Show Notes by Professor Shimmy Shanks of @aclamouringsound
Festival took place during the height of the D.C. Sniper shootings in Virginia just off of I-95
-Biscuits were the only late-night act on their own secondary woods stage.
-Using the Rich Steele Remaster of John Madigan’s AUD source, it’s one of the best audience pulls of all-time in regards to Disco Biscuit recordings.
-‘Save the Robots’ – First jam is fairly short and stays with the theme of the song proper, but the 2nd jam (starts around 11:25) takes this version to the top of the list when it comes to Top 10 versions from a large consensus of fans. Ridiculously well done DnB jam with Sammy and Marc in lockstep all the way through; definitely the best version at the time since the song had been reworked for 12/31/01.
-‘Very Moon-> Helix-> Very Moon’ – Always a welcome pairing during ‘99 and ‘00, this hadn’t happened since 12/3/00 - fittingly in Blacksburg, VA. The jam that starts around the 7:45 mark of the Moon jam is as close to perfection as a jam band ever need be. The key change is spot on and takes the improv into such a more ominous territory. Smooth as silk transition into Helix. The jam back into Very Moon is more magic all led by guitar.
-‘Very Moon Funk-> Shem Rah’- Fits nicely if not a bit of a breather after the mayhem that preceded it.
-‘Shem Rah-> Helix’- Once again we are in all-timer mode as far as jams from this show are concerned. The craziest thing about how well this worked is that ShemRah had only segued into Helix one other time (8/28/99 at the Wormtown Music Fest)!!! Magner jumps on a thematic roller coaster (starts about 4:35 mark after the guitar takes us out of the song) and the rest follow suit leading to the definition of a “thematic jam,” a phrase that gets tossed about without a lot of explanation. This is the sort of music a fan and musician can get lost in, time is no longer a worry and if I might borrow from Grateful Dead lore, the music is playing the band. Punishing explosion back into Helix ending.
-‘Kitchen Mitts’- Well played, strong,very tight, type 1 jam
-‘Run Like Hell’- Considering how close to the curfew this song began the intro is patient and very well done. Works well as an encore of sorts after such an amazing two-night run. Once again a HUGE slam into the ending of the song.
"This is the one and only Disco Biscuits podcast hosted by the man, the myth, the legend @barbershreds and it's absolutely fantastical. No one can play the guitar like Jon Barber! NO ONE! Dude is a straight up virtuosic, genius of a musician who has written some of the best songs the world has ever heard. As far as the podcast goes take some Barber banter swirl it with some Biscuits jams and you got yourself a stew going baby!! It's smart, hilarious, weird, wild stuff and you should all be checking it out especially if you already get down with the greatest band on the planet, the Disco Biscuits!" -- Ian Gillepsie > @tdbdancediet on IG.
