Mastodon on the other hand were great; they weren't showy at all and spent most of the set intensely focused on their instruments. They sounded excellent and I can understand how the technicality of their songs combined with the fact that all four members contribute vocals makes it difficult to jump around like the roid-raging Dillinger lead singer. They also played a wide berth of material-- about an equal amount from each album, with the exception of the Hunter of course.

Also, I don't know if you guys are aware of this site but it's fantastic. Setlist FM
Hot damn, I'm jealous man. I like both bands quite a bit!
