THE TEA LEAF GREEN TAKEOVER

Listen to Tea Leaf Green's Taught To Be Proud on JamBase Rhapsody!

TEA LEAF GREEN
THE FILLMORE :: SAN FRANCISCO, CA :: 04.07.06
IMAGES BY JOSH MILLER

Everyone loves San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium. It's without question one of the greatest places to see live music in the country. The halls are alive, they breathe secrets and tell tales, and the sound is always impeccable. But you know who loves that hallowed hall even more than us listeners? The musicians themselves.

Now change your perspective for a moment. Try to place yourself in the shoes of a young rock & roll band coming up the ranks of San Francisco's highly-competitive music scene. Then just try to imagine what it would be like when you get the call; when the folks who run the venue you've come of age in tell you that it's your turn. Just try to conceive what it would be like to take the stage to a sold out crowd at The Fillmore as the headlining act for the first time in your young life. Well, that's exactly where we found up-and-coming hot shots Tea Leaf Green during the first week of April. We hope you enjoy a look at what will always be remembered as a legendary evening for the Tea Leaf faithful.

So sick. TLG is the hottest, fastest growing band right now. Jump on the bus, go along for the sweetest ride. Can't wait till they come back to the PAC NW.

Was at this show and it was a higlight of mine over the last year. The show was sold out, and there was a crakling energy in the air. I got that feeling I have had at other memorable shows from larger bands when the house music cuts out, the lights go off, and a flashlight leads the band out to the stage while the crowd goes apeshit. This was how it felt that night. These guys are the most refreshing and talented thing to happen to a sometimes overly generic "jamband" scene in many years. Do yourself a favor and give 'em a listen; you wont be dsappointed.

Saturday night at CBGBs was an epic 3 set monster. INstant classic. 5 hour show, longer than the jammy's... 1/4 of the price. The second set was the best set I have seen them play. I hope they release the soundboard.

I'm going to go ahead and agree with the other posters who don't refer to themselves in the second person voice - TLG is amazing. Sorry, jackie. Oh, and the photos are great too.

Saw them in Ann Arbor and I danced my ass off at the blind pig. Had a great time and made friends go with me who were instant fans. THese guys have to be seen to be taken seriously. All you skeptics, these guys are the real deal.
