amazing show grace is gone was sick

After reading all the incredible setlists from the first leg, I was a little dissapointed by this one. Worst encore of 06. But it was certainly better than Hershey 05 and they really played well.

such a great time on the mountain last night. this is the second show i've seen on this tour.. i saw dave in hershey 2 weeks before, i had 8th row tickets. i had lawn for this show, i always have a better time up on the lawn at montage. a little disappointed that he didn't play dancing nancies, but i saw him play it in hershey, so it's cool. overall, awesome show.. didn't want it to end <3

LAST STOP! my 13th show and i finally heard the last stop live! however, it wasnt the best part of the night! In the middle of Grace is Gone, Boyd started a hoe-down! I dont know if it was the mountain air, but everyone went into the isles and did the doseydoe! It was THE BEST BOYD SOLO EVER. It really was a great version of an already classic song, and it's never been played again. Also, the tent cieling is a canopy that the light show looks great on over top of the crowd. AN amazing night. And one of the rarest set lists i've ever heard.

This was my first show at Scranton and it was amazing. LOVED the venue, very picturesque. Loved the crowd and the enthusiasm from the band. Only downside was I hadn't been informed about the joys of tailgating!

Great show. Obnoxious people in the crowd was the biggest downer. Loved the hoedown. I've gotten Last Stop in 2 of my 3 shows!!

Fun show, was surprised by the bayou encore....i love bayou but not as the last encore song. The set was pretty predictable, i called a lot of the songs before they were played. Not as stellar a show as the others i have been to this year. Lover Lay Down was a nice surprise and the segue to LIOG was nice too. Last stop was also great. Would have been nice to hear stone or seek up. Boyd didnt seem to be as on fire as he was in previous shows this tour and the band as a whole didnt seem to bring it like they have been recently on this tour.

Great show and my first since '04. Encore was a mixed bag. I liked Can't Stop but didn't want to end on Bayou (although I like the song). Left midway through Bayou to beat the crowd to the buses...which on the way down we had a sing along to Bohemian Rapsody which was on the radio.

Good PNP/Rapunzel/Granny opener American Baby & Where Are You Going was bleh The Idea Of You/Grey Street - good stuff Lover Lay Down - i knew there would be a debut, I was hoping for a more upbeat debut though Lie In Our Graves - fuck yeah! WTWE/HFTGL - old, tired, end it already Grace Is Gone - nice to hear, hoedown outro is the best thing boyd and carter have ever done! It was a pretty mellow show for the most part, nothing to exciting. And then..... LAST STOP! LAST STOP! LAST STOP! The only time I think I jumped higher was for Halloween at MSG N2. So good, so amazing, yeah yeah yeah! Ditch - mellow, i needed a breather after last stop Everyday/Ants - nice way to end the set. Can't Stop/Bayou encore - eh, would've prefered to hear somethin more upbeat then Can't Stop, was hoping for Dreaming Tree, but hey. Overall, definately not my top show. Last Stop does not make this show #1. But, yeah. It was more of a mellow show I think. Not complaining at all, I got Last Stop!

Absolutely phenomenal show. Cannot describe the energy from the start tonight. Granny and Rapunzel sent the crowd into an Uproar, and it was one of the best versions of LioG that I had ever heard. great night.

Mellow Show, Great Venue(Sound Wise), abolutely SHITTY HORRIBLE FUCKING PATHETIC venue everything else wise (Parking, Staff, Etc.) GIG, Last Stop...amazing...LLD-->LIOG...amazing...PNP opener was cool, Everyday Ants closer was cool. Loved hearing Digging a Ditch. Cool vibe to the show, the encore fucking sucked though...really wished they played a 3rd song. Bayou is cool I like it a lot but not to end the show...never ever ever. Out of my 7 shows, I'd say this is not even in the top 5, but still solid. Plus, it was my GF's first, and she loved it, so that made it a great time. I love this band.

I had a good tim with my girlfriend but did not enjoy the show. I liked PNP, Grey St, GIG, and Last Stop. I like the end horn section on Idea of You. The rest of the show felt like a long bathroom break full of rest songs for the band. Terrible encore

Crowd sucked! here's a thought people: STAY IN ONE FREAKING PLACE, LISTEN TO THE SHOW AND SHUT UP! Not too many bands have this kind of talent out there! I got so sick of people jammin' to the songs while the lyrics were goin' but then yacking while the jamming starts! IF you want to hear the lyrics BUY THE CD! --end rant Anyway, great performance, but I'll go with some others, set list was a little weak! Nothing out of the ordinary for the tour (such as Typical Situation, Proudest Monkey, Dreaming Tree!!!) The Hoedown jam was just SICK!

Dave seemed tired tonight :( Halloween was GREAT though!

User: JGC8099

This show was my forth of the summer, and unfortuniatly this show comes in last place. It was still a good set list and a great time, but the energy was never there from the crowd and the venue sucked. My personal highlights for this show were The Last Stop, Granny, and Grace is Gone. Parking at this place is a nightmare!

This is the loudest DMB show I have ever been to, as far as the crowd is concerned. The "tent" over the crowd was bright white and the stage lights lit up the entire pavillion, as well as bouncing all of the crowd noise right back down. A truly energetic crowd... the only downfall was that the seats/standing room were on a very gradual slope and the view was somewhat obstructed.

This was my second full DMB show and it was almost as good as my first, which was in State college. The highlight for me at this one would have to be Last Stop. Especially because my friend (who is all about Dave more than anyone I know) told me how rarely it is played nowadays. Anyway, It was all around a good show. Although, not as powerful as thousands of college students singing every word to every song at an indoor venue like the Bryce Jordan Center. If you ever have the opportunity to see Dave there, Do It!

Great Venue, Great energy, and Great show. Last stop was awesome and lie in our graves was a nice treat. Out of my 4 DMB shows this was the best.

User: Red Randal
Review:
The set list was an ecclectic mix of hits (American Baby, Where Are You Going, Ants Marching,) concert favorites (Lie in Our Graves, Pantala-->Rapunzel, #36/Everyday,) and just plain weird "out of left field" stuff (Lover Lay Down, Digging a Ditch, When the World Ends.) Granny was a highlight and Grey Street was amazing. The Last Stop (!!) came out of nowhere and was amazing. Grace Is Gone was probably the highlight, due to Boyd and Carter going nuts with an awesome "hoedown" jam that had Montage going crazy. The jam on Lie in Our Graves was also great because Boyd kept it fast and upbeat for awhile before sinking into the mellow portion of the jam. Ants was a great closer. The new The Idea of You was great to hear. The encore was kind of disappointing (only because nobody knew Can't Stop) but picked up with a great jam to close out Louisiana Bayou.

I went this year and last year at this venue and let me say, it just gets better and better! Those big screens popping up in Granny was a big surprise. I liked it. Tons of good jams, particularly Grace is Gone. Everyday was so mellow and then right in to Ants Marching and Dave screwed up the words! Haha... The encore was bitchin, except i don't know Can't Stop. I called Louisiana Bayou before it started because i recognized Dave's electric guitar from the weekend on the rocks dvd, so that was a little personal triumph ;) Rashawn Ross adds the perfect touch to the band and i could've used even more trumpet! Maybe even a solo or two. Anyways, awesome show...I'll probably keep up the montage mountain tradition and go again next year!

A great show... the setlist might have been a little mellow at the beginning, but Last Stop, Ants, Everyday, and Bayou picked things up. It was a great time and both the band and the crowd seemed really pleased.

User: RVDBWO
Review:
Everybody's gotta nitpick the setlist. How bout this? Shut UP! Feel lucky that this is a band that is that good - good enough that you can even think about complaining about a set like last nights. There was definately a fire: a fire on the mountain last night and I am happy I got to go last minute (sec. 103 Row JJ). I will say I thought the show was about to die with AB/WAYG back to back; but Lover Lay Down --> Lie In Our Graves had me back. . . and after that they couldn't really do any wrong in my book. The Hoe Down outro to Grace is Gone is incredible. I was doing backflips during Last Stop (finally got it). This was the first show in a while I left with no voice. Great show for #27. See y'all at Fenway and Randall's. PS: Whoever hit dave in the balls with the yellow fish - Boooooo to you sir! Boo to yoou.

Awesome opening with PNP >> Rapunzel and Granny (yayyy Granny!!)! American Baby was okay, and Where Are You Going was a downer. The Idea Of You sounded nice, Grey Street was great as usual. Lover Lay Down (nice debut!) >> Lie In Our Graves was great! When The World Ends was a good addition for me. Hunger For The Great Light is not going anywhere new and felt bland, but it is still one of my favorite songs off of Stand Up. Grace Is Gone outro was insane, and I am glad we got it! The Last Stop was the highlight of the show, I loved every second of it. I thought it was unreal that Digging A Ditch was played next. Everyday sounded good as usual, and Ants Marching was awesome as the set closer. The encore was a big let down. Can’t Stop shouldn’t be played in the encore yet, and it’s still to bland for my liking. Louisiana Bayou was kind of boring but still good, and I was thinking something was coming after it and that would have made me happier with the encore, because I felt like we were cheated and it was awfully short. Overall, it was a great mellow show overall, to bad for the encore! Overall I think it was better than the two shows I went to last year, and I don’t know yet if it tops my first show. I didn’t care for Umphrey’s McGee at all.

This show was indeed a mellow one, but it was still wonderful. I felt like the crowd didn't really get into it until American Baby because people were still straggling to get into their seats for the first few songs (much unlike any other DMB show I've been to). I just knew we were going to get Last Stop, which we did and that was awesome...but I'd have to say, the highlight of the night for me was the Grace is Gone Outro. I'd never heard of it before and I was amazed. What a fun night...I was hoping to hear Break Free but Idea of You was good. Encore was a little short but I got to hear Bayou and that was good. Venue was awesome in my opinion.

Awesome. I was in love with this show. The venue is superb, the sound is incredible. Even the throwaway songs sounded great in that room. Grace is Gone jam was way cool, and then Thal Last Stop came out of nowhere. I was sure we wouldn't get it. It sounded great. Digging A Ditch sounded really goos also. Everyday into Ants was a kickass way to close out the main set. The encore was kind of a waste, though. They should've played one more song there. I found it kind of odd that Carter handed out his stick at the end of Ants. That had me nervous. It was a bit on the short side, but what it lacked in length, it made up for in awsomeness. Great, Great show.
