Worst Encore So Far This Summer?

I was just rolling through some setlists and came upon the Hartford N1 encore and thought to myself I would be pretty disappointed to have this encore:

Rye Whiskey
Everyday
Stay

Any other bad encores this summer? or from other years? Has any encore ruined a great setlist or helped make an otherwise average setlist into a great one?

    Alpine Night 2 was such a great setlist the entire night ending with Two Step, then people decided to start chanting THANK YOU, and everyone got into it, unfortunatly he played it, and then Halloween(which is my favorite song, i couldnt complain). But after seeing what he was supposed to play (DDTW, Tripping Billies>>All Along the Watchtower) I was really pissed that he played Thank You, so so so so mad.

    Hershey 2008's encore turned Hershey from a mediocre show into a semi-classic. That encore might be the best ever.

    Fenway N2 with Dirty Water and Stay was rough to watch because I knew Stay was coming. Not that I dislike Stay, I was just expecting more from that weekend.

    I think the single Everyday encore at the Gorge ruined everyone's night, too.

    That's about as awful as an encore can get without having Smooth Rider or Louisiana Bayou or Cornbread in it IMO.

    Well then, let's imagine this baby:

    Cornbread
    Smooth Rider
    Bayou
    Everyday

    Figured we should end with Everyday, a song with considerably less energy than the three before it. If DMB wants to suck it up, go balls to the wall.

    And it also begs the question, would you rather see an encore of:

    Everyday

    or

    Smooth Rider
    Louisiana Bayou

    I'm not sure what would be worse for me. Just one of those songs or all of them. I think all of them because it would just prolong my intense emotional turmoil and suicidal thoughts an extra 15 minutes.

    No no, the encore for Alpine N2 was DDTW, Billies OR Watchtower, not Billies and Watchtower. Also, being that it would've been 11:30 by the time DDTW ended I'll assume they would've played a quick Billies. Oh and if you can't appreciate the whole Thank You moment then you really don't have a pulse, it was damn special to be in that building that night.

    that show looks like it'd fit perfectly in the 2007 summer tour.

    Yeah thats what I meant. I was directing that at the people who were there, on paper sure DDTW/Watchtower or Billies is a very solid encore but the crowd chanting and the whole scene was just insane. Absolutely everyone was into it and singing throughout the whole song, and then we get rewarded with Halloween (my first) so it was an incredible way to end the weekend.

    at least you guys got a Halloween out of the deal. kinda curious as to why they would change the entire encore and not just do Thank You/Billies.

    First of all this was the second show with out Roi. (band not firing on all cylinders) Second of all my my hey hey was on the list and the ran out of time for the encore.(dont think coffin knew it yet either)

    The worst encore of the season, and possibly of all time was in Charrlotte, NC 09! Blue Water Baboon tease --> Crash ---> Stay. That was my 35th ish show and I have never been in the car and driving out of the parking lot while the band is still on stage untill THAT NIGHT. Dave mentioned before the encore he would do something special for the fans in the encore yeah thanks dave really special...... special as in puke up my $12 beer in my mouth TWICE! I hate Stay I hate it more than I did it, and bayou put together. It is what it is and out of 35 shows you are gonna see good ones and bad ones... not the end of the world but it was the worst encore I have ever had the displeasure of seeing or hearing.

    Billies OR Watchtower

    (Not Billies>watchtower)...

    I'm happy with Thank You and Halloween...You won't hear Thank You again this year...and to have it played after the crowd chanted like that was cool...and I'm seriously NOT a fan of Thank You...

    We're on the same page (as you stated ) and that's the whole thing about Thank You. They won't play it again unless a crowd decides to sing it again or something along those lines, and it was a sort of "in the moment" thing.

    I started reading this thread and thought it was referring to this year, and was baffled that no one had said

    Time Bomb
    Cornbread

    yet.
