He's seemed sober the five times I've seen them. He still talks too much. Usually enough that the set feels at least two songs too short.

they did the Electric Factory in 2009 and it was barely half full(they sold discounted tickets if you bought tickets to Clutch that weekend)

but last year they sold out the much smaller Trocadero so yeah

I wouldn't mind seeing them again but damn there's too many good shows in September so far.

Surprised it would be at HOB since its alot bigger but it's easier for me to get there.

Don't see them packing the place though.

I saw Down at the HOB in chicago in late 07 and it was sold out

I really didn't know they were that big right now to sell it out.

Unless they go to Austin or S.A. the day before, this will be like, the fifth or sixth Down show I've missed.

Remember in 07 Down had just released a new album and only a year before that was the VH1 Behind the Music in Pantera, both of which helped Down draw good crowds.

In the last few years the crows have dwindled slightly but I believe this is only due to the fact that Down did not tour behind new material like they will be on this tour in Sept. More people will turn out to hear the new stuff if it is good.
