This was my seventh or eighth show, and I finally felt like I had a solid handle on things. I've had a solid handle for a while, but I pushed myself on the mic breaks/crossfades. "Loud Bark" and "Seven" share the same guitar riff in the same key. "Feel Shame" has a thirty second intro I can build up tension with. Trent Reznor's sultry whines strike once more.

I brought about 6-7 CDs with me, two of which contain about 40 singles that I've personally amassed. It was a marathon. Until next week.
