January 31 was no exception in Norfolk (Norflock!), VA. <strong>Pigeons Playing Ping Pong<\/strong> blew the roof off <strong>The NorVa<\/strong>, with the help of <strong>The Fritz<\/strong>, to a packed house of insatiable Flockers. PPPP were unstoppable last year between their nonstop touring, festival appearances, and themed concerts like their \u201c<strong>Red Hot Sgt. Peppers<\/strong>\u201d Halloween run, and their \u201c<strong>New Year\u2019s stEVE<\/strong>\u201d show to end 2018. There aren\u2019t any signs of them slowing down in 2019 either. They\u2019ve sold out five out of eight of their first stops on their winter\/spring tour, which include iconic venues like <strong>The Capitol Theatre<\/strong> in New York and the <strong>Orange Peel<\/strong> in Asheville, NC. Two weeks after their show at the legendary <strong>Red Rocks Amphitheatre<\/strong>, they\u2019ll be flocking to the 10<sup>th<\/sup> annual <strong>Domefest<\/strong>: The Pigeon\u2019s three day festival.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" title=\"The Fritz\" data-id=\"72899\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503089.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" title=\"The Fritz\" data-id=\"72899\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503089.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s no easy feat to share the stage with a band like Pigeons with the energy they bring, but openers, The Fritz, came prepared to prime the crowd. The Asheville based quintet came screaming out of the gates and didn\u2019t look back once. Opening with the song &#8220;Sound. Habits. Blame.,&#8221; featuring a rocking intro courtesy of <strong>Jamie Hendrickson<\/strong> on guitar and keyboard licks straight from outer space by<strong> Jamar Woods<\/strong>, the crowd was hooked from the start and didn\u2019t stand still until the music stopped. The Fritz has the ability to seamlessly transition from funk to rock to soul and mix them all together as they see fit as their setlist proved. Wrapping up their originals with Nothing to Find, the band put it out there with a slap happy bass intro by <strong>Jake O\u2019Connor<\/strong> and Woods belting out the lyrics. But they had one more card up their sleeve to whip the crowd up into a frenzy before leaving the stage: a hard rocking cover of <strong>Black Sabbath<\/strong>\u2019s &#8220;War Pigs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"993\" title=\"Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\" data-id=\"72903\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/8001480.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"993\" title=\"Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\" data-id=\"72903\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/8001480.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pigeons Playing Ping Pong walked out on stage to a room full of Flockers that was ready to party all night. Their first set started with two tracks from their newest release <strong>Pizazz<\/strong>: the light and melodic &#8220;Henrietta,&#8221; which was jammed into the psychedelic instrumental, &#8220;Offshoot,&#8221; that allowed lead guitarist <strong>Jeremy Schon<\/strong> to tear into his mind melting solos right out of the gate. Pigeons switched back to the lighter side of things with the tropical flavored &#8220;Julia,&#8221; which had everyone\u2019s favorite <em>Little Mermaid<\/em> song that had taken a six month hiatus, &#8220;Under The Sea,&#8221; sandwiched in the middle. Some other highlights were a Lightning with a nice extended jam, &#8220;Fun in Funk,&#8221; and porcupine to wrap up the set.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" title=\"Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\" data-id=\"72909\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503307.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" title=\"Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\" data-id=\"72909\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503307.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Set two was absolute fire from beginning to end. The set started with Somethin\u2019 For Ya, and they undoubtedly had somethin\u2019 for the Flock. That was jammed into &#8220;Skipjack&#8221; with <strong>The Beatles<\/strong>\u2019 &#8220;Eleanor Rigby&#8221; snuck in the middle. &#8220;Skipjack&#8221; is one of the Pigeon\u2019s songs that lets bassist <strong>Ben Carrey<\/strong> shine and he was slapping his bass like they were in a cat fight in a high school hallway. Horizon was taken for a long ride, which allowed their incredibly talented lighting designer, <strong>Manny Newman<\/strong>, to really stretch his wings and fly high. That was jammed into a funky &#8220;Fade Fast,&#8221; which featured <strong>Alex \u201cGator\u201d Petropulos<\/strong> absolutely going off on his drum kit. The set finished with fan favorite, &#8220;The Liquid,&#8221; with singer \u201c<strong>Scrambled\u201d Greg Ormont<\/strong> performing some of his signature dance moves for the giddily exuberant crowd. The encore was another conglomeration of songs that, at first look, have no business being played as one, but the Pigeons are one of the best at making these mashups happen. It started with &#8220;High As Five,&#8221; which was jammed into <strong>Michael Jackson&#8217;s<\/strong> &#8220;PYT,&#8221; which slid right into <strong>The Who&#8217;s<\/strong> &#8220;Pinball Wizard&#8221; (complete with windmill guitars!), and back into &#8220;High As Five&#8221; to finish the night.<\/p>\n<p>With the energy and talent these guys bring to the stage, there\u2019s no wondering why they\u2019re on such a hot streak right now. Get to one of these shows to experience a Pigeon party as soon as you can. You\u2019ll be a Flocker for life!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Click here to see the setlist for<strong>&nbsp;Pigeons Playing Ping Pong&nbsp;<\/strong>performance at<strong>&nbsp;The NorVa<\/strong> on <strong>January 31, 2019&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" title=\"Pigeons Playing Ping Pong\" data-id=\"72893\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503497.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The NorVa 2019-01-31<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: Zydeko was not played.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Click here to see the setlist for <strong>The Fritz&nbsp;<\/strong>performance at <strong>The NorVa<\/strong> on <strong>January 31, 2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" title=\"The Fritz\" data-id=\"72892\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/7503134.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Setlist<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Social Media Posts<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Social Media Posts<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Social Media&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n<blockquote data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/VIRGINIA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#VIRGINIA<\/a> IS FOR <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FLOCKERS?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FLOCKERS<\/a>!!
