The crowd at deer creek was the best I've seen...

...in 10 years of seeing shows. I'm a little pissed because I only went to N2 and the N1 set was so much better on paper, and it had bartender which I've been chasing since I started listening to DMB, but recently and Halloween almost made up for it.

I just wanted to make this thread because I have had a few DMB shows nearly ruined by awful crowds with people texting and talking the whole time, but last night it was insane how into it everyone was. People were singing at the top of their lungs to almost everything, even newer songs like rooftop, spaceman and squirm. So props to everyone that attended deer creek, even with a sub par setlist I had an amazing time because if I didn't know better I would have thought I was at a phish show with how into every song everyone was.

My love for DMB has be rekindled today. Can't wait to listen to the tape

    I've only listened to part of the tape, I guess I'll have to put on headphones to see if I can hear the crowd better.

    Had no idea you were going to DC this year WhyGo!

    But you're right, excellent crowds both nights. Even during the acoustic sets. There was definitely some talking but not enough to be a distraction.

    Funny how an energized and engaged crowd can turn a show like N2 with an uneven setlist into a burner like that. Had a ton of fun. I've said it a million times, and Dave even alluded to it on Saturday night, saying something like 'We always forget just how good you people are to us at this place' or something, but Deer Creek is the band's most underrated tour stop.

    Totally agree. The most fun I've had at a show in years. Amazing crowd.
