Kind of feel like we should have some sort of Masto version of here in honor of tour starting tonight. Or is that just dorky af?

OK, let's keep it simple, see if there's any interest.

Tonight is the start of the band's 40th (!) year. If they were to do one "special" thing in 2023 to celebrate, what would you love to see em do?


@Neddyo I’d love to see regular nods to their origins with early days song bust outs and Michael Jackson covers (🤣)

But seriously, Skippy the Wondermouse, Clod, Alumni Boues, Flat Fee, Take the A Train, etc.

Bring back the old backdrops too. Like this one: youtu.be/6z-35ehTFaA

@aburtch would love it if they busted out the Minkins! The Greek would be a great place for em too!


@Neddyo That would be a very unique nod to 40 years. Would look so cool at the Greek.

@aburtch also that video is from less than 2 weeks after my first show, more or less what I saw that night. Kind of wild. Still have some of Kuroda's light patterns from certain songs memorized. He was a master even back then with less to work with.

@Neddyo I keep that video bookmarked, because it was my first show. I was very close to the front near Mike. Not hyperbole to say that one show changed the course of my musical life!
