Last night, moe. concluded a three night stand in the Big Apple, playing a powerful finale at the PlayStation Theater in Times Square. The energy was electric, as the storied jammers wasted no time getting to work, opening the show with “The Ghost Of Ralph’s Mom.”
Certainly the highlight of the first set was a cover-filled “Brent Black” medley, as the band weaved House of Pain’s “Jump Around” and the Star Wars theme “The Imperial March” into the original song. Thankfully, the band has shared a clip from their “Jump Around” cover, which you can stream below:

The second set opened with The Animals’ “House Of The Rising Sun,” as things continued to heat. “Lazarus” came next, which segued into a “Ricky Marten” containing more teases of “Brent Black.” After “Time Ed,” the band welcomed guest guitarist Suke Cerulo for some serious “Moth.” Cerulo is a member of a few bands, including the Conehead Buddhas. It rocked!
The set concluded with a “Rebubula > Four > Rebubula” jam out, before encoring with a potent version of David Bowie’s “Ziggy Stardust” to close out the whole run. What a show!
Watch “Ziggy Stardust” below, thanks to Phil Rose:
