The Sunday show started with Uncle Scratch's Gospel Revival who hollowed the name of the lord, megaphone voice and all...what a riot, bible thumping rocksters! “Give Me Back My Bible”
As their set ended the remaking of the stage began for the ultimate delicacy, Mr. Maynard and his crew. The Airstream trailer was unveiled and there were two drum kits, a campfire setting in the middle which was soon occupied by Uncle Scratch guys. There were 2 mics set up with screens that covered the mics, and well, there were cameras that gave live footabge of their usage on screen. Super cool effect with the almost fishbowl appearing images of Maynard and Juliette, whom occupied the mics during the evening.
A video feed started on the main video-screen showing Maynard inside of the trailer on his cell phone calling all of the Puscifer peeps reminding them about the third show; Tim Alexander in RN drag came out from under maynards legs (opps) We get a head shot of Maynard as he popped out of the trailer and then he was like, "what the fuck are all of these people doing outside of my trailer?” (on his phone). Looking rather paranoid.
A Major Douche video played warning not to use cameras or recording devices of any kind. It was super cool, during my scan, there was nil flashes or silly people with their arms in the air looking at the concert through their silly cameras, major props Keenan!
Maynard started out in jeans and a t-shirt and then changed into a black suit with red shirt, red tie and red socks. HUBBA HUBBA!!! He was all in his "Toolish" slither moves in the suit getup, I was goosebumping! Tim Alexander: DRUNK! Oh, and got spank raped by the singer from Uncle Scratch in the trailer. Lots of action. There was the chef from Simon serving up apps in the trailer as well as major Wine action among all parties there.
The videos were trippy! They featured talking dolls, talking vaginas, talking assholes, a cult and Bob, oh and infomercial segments with Mr. Show peeps. We had a wedding with the presiding Rev. Maynard Juliette and some dude. I was bummed there was no Milla.
The renditions of the track were all very unique compared to recorded songs on "V" is for Viagra and "V" is for Vagina.

Maynard
Juliette
Jonny Polonski
Gil Sharone
Rani Sharone

quoted from Spin.com:
And Keenan himself was in fine voice, whether in affected baritone or the evocative tenor he often employs in his two other bands, Tool and A Perfect Circle. In fact, this was a rare opportunity to see the multi-faceted artist exhibit his every creative impulse at once. It might not have made total sense, but then again, harmony is the last thing you'd expect from Maynard James Keenan.Setlist:
