What a show! Haven't been here for several years but a great night. I couldn't see very much gear wise but Matthew was using a Pelham Blue SG for the whole show, through a Matchless. Caleb was on a 335 apart from one song where he used a dread. Very restrained

I was there sitting close to the stage with my brother, our daughters were standing right by the front, was a fantastic show. 

Vaccines were really impressive too.

We were there on Friday and they were fantastic. Snuts as support who we missed.
Also there for Alanis on Tuesday who was also just amazing, loved every minute

They have never not had great tone. I assume Caleb was on his usual ES-325? 

drpbier

Yes that's the one. What is that?

I love KOL but they are so boring live with zero interaction with audience except usual's. Last time I saw them it was the most phoned in gig Ive ever seen. First 2 records are up there with anything from the last 25 years.

ES-325 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibson_ES-325

Basically a cheaper version of the 335 from the Norlin era - fully hollow with mini humbuckers and plate on the front for wiring. Arguably the fact that it'll hollow makes it closer to the ES-330L

Well I never. Thanks @stickyfiddle, every day's a school day!

In many ways KoL are the absolute ultimate arena and festival band.
