Just got back from the show...tonights show was very high energy and a ton of fun to be at...I ended up hearing some songs live for the first time ever which I was excited about
Seek Up- I heard the tour debut of this at mansfield this year and this version was much more tight and clean...with that said dave did forget they lyrics on the second verse and mumbled his way through but still great way to start the show...stone and seek up openers so far at the greek = :thumbsup:thumbsup
Proudest Monkey- I have always loved this song and especially this year how it gets much more intense at the end...i love tims fills on this one
Satellite- I felt that they really played this song very well tonight...standard version but I found myself really getting into it because of how well they played it.
PNP->Rapunzel- I imagine Ill take some shit for this but I really dont live tim that much on this song...i like the acoustic sound to it much better and i wish they would just let tim do little fills and then solo during the jam at the end which was incredible...with that said ill take this song on any set.
Louisiana Bayou- saw dave get the electric guitar and was hoping for so right (i know long shot) or wya but knew that i was going to get this...standard version strong performance by dave but not my favorite not terrible though. btw (first stand up song since n2 at the gorge)
OOMH- second straight stand up song...dave said before that he could still play this song even if he got 8 of his fingers amputated. IMO this is the most improved song of the tour...that doesnt mean its good just went from being awful to bearable because the jam at the end is kind of interesting.
Fuzzy Wuzzy- yesssssss :thumbsup this was a fun one and of course I wasnt expecitng it at all...i really liked the horn part that jeff and rashawn played.
Sledgehammer- One of the best new covers of the year IMO. The crowd always loves it. standard version
Lover Lay Down- I had never heard this song live before and it was one that I desperately wanted to hear...great way to bring down the energy after sledgehammer and jeff had an excellent solo towards the end.
Rhyme and Reason- standard version tims solo on this kicks ass.
Jimi Thing- Dave let the crowd sing the first verse and then the beginning of the chorus and then let the crowd sing the second verse. then everyone soloed and it was phenomenal especially jeff and rashawn...the crowd prompted dave to sing "stop baby whats that sound" outro.
Where Are You Going-:BANG the only time of the night that I sat down...rashawn played what looked like a muted cornet that IMO was extremely high and shrill sounding. could have done without this one but no way im going to complain with the set i got tonight
Money- Standard version and good cover...it looks like stefan really enjoys playing this one he had a huge smile the entire time.
Warehouse- Finally I had never seen this song and it is probably my favorite DMB song tied with the stone...i loved everything about it and rashwan and coffin sounded great...tims fills really made up for the lack of butch as well. the crowd sand louie louie but dave did not.
Stay- Another song that I dont really like tim on...i just like the acoustic sound of it..id prefer this song midset but its always a fun song to hear live.
ASTB- Only repeat from last night and it was not particularly good...at the beginning boyd played a note after the band had stopped on the opening beats but once they got going it smoothed out.
Too Much- A little weird to hear them play this because the last couple times ive heard it theyve faked it but im glad they played it because its been a great great song this year.
AATW- I had never heard this song live before and like LLD and Warehouse i really really wanted to hear it...Stefan had a great intro and then they went into it...this song was absolutely amazing dave went nuts and tim played the guitar with his teeth which was absolute incredible especially because it still sounded good. this song was probably the hilight of the night for me along with warehouse.
All in all very high energy show and fun to be at...had a great time...jeff has sounded especially good these last couple of nights IMO and to me looks to be building chemistry with the rest of the members (or at least they all look more comfortable with him than when i saw him in columbus)
One other note: Sharon Jones the opening singer who is a id say 5'3 skinny black woman took rashawn out on stage during one of her songs and sang to him...rashawn looked embarrassed but he couldnt stop laughing...it was actually really funny.
looking forward to tomorrow nith hopening to get song that jane likes
