Went and saw the Time at the Grand casino in Gulfport, Mississippi on August
12, 2001. As usual Morris and the fellas put on a killer show.

It Took us about 2 hours to get from our house in Florida to Gulfport and it
rained half the way there. Not good news considering this was to be an outdoor
show. This show was originally scheduled for June 8, 2001 with the Gap band,
but had been rained out. The Time went ahead and played in the club in the
casino that day for FREE(but thats another story). After wandering around the
casino for about an hour we took our seats, 20 rows back dead center. Not bad,
but most of the other shows I've seen them, I'm usually leaning against the
stage in front of Tori. That and they were playing with another name group so I
knew they wouldn't be doing the 90 minute setlist. Expectations were low, but
by now I should learn to NEVER doubt the Time

8 pm rolls around and the concert promptly starts. Well thats a first. I've
NEVER seen The Time start on Time LOL. Well they started with a DAT intro with
samples of their most famous songs, that was defenitly new, everybody comes
out, Tori is just a wailing playing some wild ass shit I've never heard
definetly not the normal intro, finally Morris and Jerome come out, the band
just keeps ripping and I don't know what the fuck they are playing. They
finally end the sweet torture by launching into the most kick ass version of
Wild and Loose I've ever heard. Jerome even came out with the Mirror which I
haven't seen them do in at LEAST 3 years.

here's the complete setlist
1. Wild and Loose
2. The Stick
3. FishNet
4. The Oak Tree- definetly the longest version I've seen the Time do of this
song live, they usually just do a quick run through of this one
5. Jerk Out-another one they played longer than usual, lately they just do the
chorus and then launch into Cool or something else, nice to hear them play
these completly
6. Get it up
7. Cool
8. 777-9311
9. The Bird
Encore
10. Jungle Love

The show was only 45 minutes, but it was non stop with only a few instrumental
breaks for Morris to catch his breath. Morris and jerome had a bigger stage
than usual to work with and the dancing was non stop. It never ceases to amaze
me what a great show these guys put on. FANTASTIC. Can't wait for show #14

Rhastus- I wanna See The Time play the SKILLET!!!!!!!
