Set lists from Boulder and Fort Collins 9/25 and 9/26
Hello all!
I'm going to try to start posting all of Yamn's setlists on here. Now there might be slight discrepencies. Sometimes I get a setlist before the show but they don't always follow it, and sometimes they don't write a set list and i'm not sure if I have time to write it down while running lights but i will get all of them up here that I can. Come see Yamn this Saturday night at Owsley's. We are playing with Roster McCabe and this is our first Denver show since our Phish late night at Quixote's on July 31st. Hope to see you there!

Yamn's road to the Love Your Mother Earth Festival Lolo Hot Springs MT
So once again I am a little behind (sorry friends) but still feel it is important to document this awesome event!
After Summer Camp we had a week back home (actually only Neezer and I where home, everyone else went "Back home") and then departed to make our way to Love Your Mother in Missoula. We played 3 shows on the way the first of which being Tuesday at Terrapin Station in Boise ID. Our good friend Equaleyes opened for us that night and we all had a terrific time. We spent the night partying at Jeff from Equaleyes parents house. Now I get nervous every time we are going to any ones parents house cause...........well if you know what i look like you'd understand. Anyway i got to meet both of them in the next couple days and they also came up to Love your Mother. They are great people and a really good time to hang out with. Unbelievably hospitable as well. Anyway, we stayed in Boise and went to see an early evening Equaleyes set and then went out with those boys to see some more live music. Once again a really fun night.
Next day we headed off to Moscow ID to return to Johns Alley for the first time in over a year. It was a fun show and reunited us with Vertical Dave, one of the nicest sound guys you'll ever meet. It was actually his birthday and the funny thing was last time we where there we where telling everyone to buy him drinks for his birthday but it wasn't. On that recording from the last show there I'm pretty sure Bone claimed "Happy New Years" in May. Somewhat ironic.
Then on Friday we meet Equaleyes up in Sandpoint ID where we played two alternating sets: Yamn, Equalyes, Yamn and Equaleyes again. It gave the bands a great opportunity to plan what would come at Love Your Mother. Stoney is the guy who booked us for the show and what a guy he is! He set up a radio interview and was just awesome. We had a chance to party with him at Love Your Mother as well.
We left for Love Your Mother that night because I had to be at the Festy to set up my lights before music started that day at noon. After all the setup we had until about 11:30pm to chill so we just wandered the grounds, napped, watched music, and drank. When our set started there were about 500 people at the main stage. The set was great and the energy was electric! During 90 Trance 10 there was an aerial dancer hanging from the center beam at the top of stage. She did an amazing job, it was truly an amazing experience. Then at the end of Yamn's last song the members of Equaleyes came up slowly one by one. By the time the music stopped the members where completely changed out and Equaleyes was on the stage. A completely seamless transition. It was fantastic! After that the two bands and I tore our gear down and Dewey Proceeded to lead a moving dance party iPod dock all around the grounds. One of the best roving dance parties I have ever had the pleasure of being a part of. So much fun. People eventually faded and went to bed, but not me! I was trying to find which tent the alcohol vendors where in so i could wake their asses up. In my search I happened upon some locals selling home made wine for $7 a bottle. Now I am not much of a wine drinker but this was the best wine I've ever had in my life! Boysenberry/marrionberry, raspberry/boysenberry, and my favorite......Blueberry/Plum.....MMMMMMM! I was walking around to everyone getting coffee and breakfast and giving out samples of my new favorite drink. It was pretty obvious to everyone i was having a pretty good time :) Anyhow that's my last memory. Apparently i disappeared for about 4 hours and eventually while everyone was watching the Shook Twins some one saw me go in the bus and go to bed. I woke up on the road as we all took turns driving home (minus Quamy, his uncle picked him up on his way to his brother's wedding in Canada). A fun time and thanks to everyone. Anyhow, that's my story and I'm sticking to it, Mahalo and thank you,

YAMN: The Road to Summer Camp
Hello one and all!
This is a little belated but I still wanted to share some of our experiences from our trip to Summer Camp 09.
First off I wanted to start this off with: we had just finished coverting our new bus to an RV and this was it's first official trip! We had the band, me and 4 great friends on the way with us and picked up 2 more at the festival so the return trip was 11 people total! They are all great friends of ours and if any of you are reading this thank you all so much for coming and for your support........We love you very much!
Now then, we won our way into this excellent festival by winning a battle of the bands in Denver in February at Quixote's (on the night of my birthday actually:) As excited as we where to win it we where a little dissappointed to not be playing Desert Rocks ( a festival in Moab Utah we have played the last two years) which happened to be on the same weekend. Once we decided we where definately going to make the trip to Summer Camp we booked 4 shows along the way, the first of which being in Lincoln Nebraska at the 12th Street Pub. We had booked a show here about a year ago but where forced to cancel it when our bus broke down last summer, so where excited to get the chance to go back and play there. Good thing we did! This ended up being one of the best shows of the trip. The venue did a great job of getting the word out and there was a terrific turn out. It was a really fun night: good music and very happy open poeople just loving the music. These people seemed almost starved for music and the vibe in the room was electric! I can guarantee we will be back Lincoln.
A couple days and a couple shows later we arrived at Summer Camp! We got there early on Friday mourning and didn't play till Sunday so we had a couple days to just go see music. This festy had an amazing line up and all the stage locations are so close togeather you can make the short jaunt to any stage in minutes making it really easy to take all the bands in. I got to see great bands like: Umphrey's, MOE, Les Claypool, Willie Nelson, U Melt, Lotus and so many more! Now everyone in the band has different favorite bands and taste and so on, but I can tell you that the Umphrey's Mcgee sets on Friday and Saturday nights where the hightlight of the weekend for pretty much everyone in the band. The shows where amazing and Umph was just on fire! We all also had a chance to go to most of the clinics held: Drums, Guitar, Bass, Keys, Percussion ect. It was a great experience. When Sunday came we decided to set up a small setup of my lights even though Yamn was playing a day set. I will personally tell you my llights didn't look very good but YAMN killed it! An awesome high-energy set! A lot of new people got to see Yamn for the first time and we gave out about 80 CD's. Most notable things about the set for me where Bone broke a guitar string first song into the set. I grabbed him his backup guitar and he broke a string on that 2 songs later. So here I am sitting next to the stage trying to restring Bone's guitar mid set as fast as possible. It was a pretty funny situation but I don't think the music suffered any and Bone did well to keep it as seemless as 2 broken strings in 1 set can be. It was a fantastic experience and a good time was had by all.
The trip home was a straight drive from Chillicothe IL to Denver because Quamy had to be back for his sisters high school graduation(Congrats!!). Most of us slept most of the way and it was pretty uneventful. Not bad, just un eventfull.
Well untill next time,
Peace

YAMNIT.com Re Launch!
Well hello Everyone!,
My name is Paul Whitehouse and i am the Lighting Designer for YAMN! Yamn is very excited about the re-launch of their official web site and so am I. We created Pauly's Page to give you guys a little insight into the band from an outside perspective. I hope to have this blog as as an open forum for fans to ask questions and give comments on the band, their music, and their shows. I also want to use this as a place to discuss our most recent shows and setlists and upcoming events that the band is excited about. Feel free to ask me questions, comments or send photo's you've taken at shows.
SO..... With all that said,
Our most recent announcement is that our new tour bus is almost DONE!! We used to have a 1988 school bus that ran on waste vegitable oil. That bus died on us in the middle of Summer Tour 08 and we had been searching for a new bus till about a month ago. We recently bout a 1995 Bluebird and now we are almost done converting it to an RV and she's looking great!! Our maiden voyage will be on our way to Summer Camp (Which we are all very excited about) at Three Sisters Park in Illinois. Now we will be able to get back on the road (our favorite) and get back to some of the amazing places and people we've come to know and love. Keep checking this site for updates and sign our guest book on www.yamnit.com. Much love and much more to come. Peace!
Love,
Paul Whitehouse
