The first of two nights, they kept stopping between songs becuse of technical difficulties, so no lead-ins. But overall a good show.

It was a good show. It wasn't one of thier best. The show in Montreal in 2003 was much better.

This show was my dream set until Dave picked up the dreaded electric for IDI. After that the show went downhill with its only saving grace being an excellent version of jimi including "my milkshake is better than yours" in the scat.

This was another great performance by the band. I have really been enjoying the new songs and look forward to seeing their progressions as they get played more. Jimi Thing was once again awesome I still remember when Dave started the scat last year boy has that evolved.

What can I say! Excellent show. This was the first time that night 1 was better than night 2 in back to back concerts at the same venue. I love the 4 new songs, especially Sugar Will. I have already started to learn how to play it on guitar. The highlights were definitley the four new songs and Dave singing "Milkshake" during the Scat portion of Jimi Thing. All in all a great show, but can't compare to last year's two shows here.

All I can say is that Dave's Milkshake is better than yours. :)

What has become a summer tradition continues tonight. Dave Matthews Band returns to the Tweeter Center for the Performing Arts for another two nights of music, fun, and excitement. Tonight’s set was opened with the mellow sounds of One Sweet World, followed by more upbeat sounds of Best of What’s Around. The set continued with Stone, with all of its power and emotion of Dave’s mesmerizing guitar riffs and vocals. The Song That Jane Likes has made a return to the rotation in recent tours and was welcomed by the crowd. Dave then proceeded to mix in a couple of new songs making a debut on this tour, including Sugar Will, Hello Again, and Crazy Easy. Tonight there was a debut of a new tune as well as a tease of a new tune during the encore. Jimi Thing and Tripping Billies were jam-packed as usual; Jimi Thing included an intense scat with lyrics from The Milkshake Song. After the new song tease, another new tune (Joy Ride) was performed during the encore. The show closed with a crowd pleasing rendition of What Would You Say. DMB continues to bring the fans what they want with a show of new material as well as old classics.

What a GREAT show!
First time I heard Sugar Will and Joyride.
Both songs which I loved from the start of them.
Funny story...I went to both shows at the Tweeter this year.
The tickets for this show I got from my boss as a gift for 'going above and beyond' to help get buildings equipped with what they needed even though it wasn't my responsibility. He got tickets for me and my wife. The second night I went to the show for free too...I'll tell you how I got those tickets on that review.

Boyd was great tonight. Dave was jammin! He broke so many strings on his guitars tonight.
I heard the best version of Crush tonight. And Jimi Thing was amazing. All I have to say is I love the new lyrics to Jimi Thing "My milkshake is better than yours!"

They ripped. Great setlist. Billies and Warehouse were very good. It's amazing that the band can continue to get better and better.

The sound at Tweeter was amazing. The band was in great form, Jimi Thing oughta be on video for all to see that outro! Best show I could imagine, warm starry night, plenty of dance room, polite crowd (at least in my section!) What a celebration. I'd only like to see "I Did It" disappear from tour duty; how about replace it with "Spoon"?

Tonight's show was outstanding, but left a little room for an even better show tomorrow, depending on what the set list will be. I witnessed a first for me after 38 shows--Roi didn't wear his sunglasses at all! His and Boyd's solo work (as well as Carter's monster drumming) were as good as I've ever seen them. The band is definitely hitting on all 6 cylinders. The new songs are awesome, but, until we all know the lyrics and grooves, they will tend to dampen the fever pitch that the "classics" always bring out. If you don't yet have tickets to any of this summer's shows, get some somehow or just show up at the venues and get them out front. You will witness a band that is at it's peak (so far!)

It is becoming clear to me that DMB enjoys playing Tweeter in Mansfield. All of the DMB shows I've seen there are consistently excellent--good energy, good setlists, and generally a good vibe. Tonight's show was no exception. Some generally positive aspects of the show: Dave's voice was in top form--he not only was hitting all the falsettos and full-voice screams, but he was pushing them even further...very impressive; LeRoi was on fire with his solos tonight; and the new songs have developed and grown since their respective debuts, with Hello Again already turning into a crowd-pleaser. I found myself actively hoping Dave would retire the Jimi Thing scat (just for a change of pace, I like it when they're unpredictable), but then I was treated to the best Jimi scat I'd ever heard from him, wow. Song highlights were OSW; Stone; STJL; R&R; Thing; Warehouse; Hello Again; Jimi; Crazy-Easy; and Billies. Crowd around us was cool. Oh, and I've never seen Dave break so many strings...the guitar tech was working overtime tonight.

Good Overall, Was the worst of the 4 I seen that summer, but it still rocked, wish it had a better encore but jimi was awesome.
User: maxkosman
Review:
I thought it was an incredible show in general--the Jam in Jimi Thing ws epoch, and Crush as incedible emotion--I also really enjoyed hearing the Stone for the first time in recent memory--and wrapping up the pre-encores with Tripping Billies was good move

Very good show. Good mixture of old and new songs. First time I heard "thing" live. What a great song. Hello again will be a big hit when the new album comes out. Dave was really jammin the guitar (Broke a couple strings). Every show you see is something special.

Show was a little mellow. Band always seems to have to shake some rust after an extended period off(although not very long). Crowd was subdued as well. Highlights Jimi Thing and Billies, new tunes getting more kick each and every time out.

such a great show!... on the ride there my friends and I talked about how great it would be if they played One Sweet World, and The Stone, and Best of Whats Around (as well as other songs we have never heard live)... sure enough they were the first 3 songs!! great setlist!

Review:
Good show. The Jimi was the highlight, amazing version. Great set from start to finish. GGT was good it will develop into something jazzy. Leroi was great during Warehouse. Good Billies and What Would You Say was an unexpected closer but worked well.

Stone Warehouse Jimi Thing (w/ Scat outro) New Song Tease played as an intro to WWYS that sounds #40 esque to me but keep on the look out for it to be an xlent new song (he plays it with lyrics at the 6.17.04 show which I have a copy of obviously which I could easily send you through DC++ or whatever, AIM handle: MusicalShangriLa
