Widespread Panic played Sunday night at The Strand in Providence. At previous shows, lucky audiences were blown away at the intensity of the jams and the tightness between the band me:mbers as they climaxed together and then twisted into the next song with beauty, all done with the best of Southern hospitality. Sunday night was no different. .After a much too loud set by label mates The Freddie Jones Band, Widespread Panic took the stage at around 10:30 p.m. and began right off with a smoking “Wondering.” They hardly came close to slowing down, blazing through two full sets of non-stoo foot-stomping- jams.

Violence begets violence begets violence in anescalation of interhuman power relations in an artificial environment devoid of law, justice, God, or any other standards of good and evil. Consequently, power becomes the sole determinant of what is good and what is bad. And man, reduced by Tarantino to base animalistic cravings, responds to his amoral environment through self-defining acts of cruelty. No longer responsible to divine authority or other Ivinely-inspired covenants, man is left without any guidance at all.
