Best show for me this year...the energy in the pit was awesome- great crowd, but not too crowded. Dave seemed to be very relaxed and to really enjoy the crowd too- lots of dancing, and at one point he put on sunglasses and started prancing around on the stage which was hilarious! I thought the set rocked, and I actually loved the encore- Thank You ending was tight, though I know I may be alone in that. I guess it is new and I haven't heard it before like that, so I like it when they mix it up! #41 was amazing with Jeff/Carter duel, and the Two Step was off the hook!!

probably the most fun i ever had. i was in the pit, in approximately row 2. so many pleasant surprises. i even caught dave's pic after the end of the show. def beats camden n2 which i attended earlier this month. best of my 8 attended shows. i brought 10 pumpkin paper plates in lieu of making a sign and passed them to ppl around me in the pit. i was holding mine every chance i got and dave noticed it during #41 and mouthed "i see you " to me. stefan was laughing at it all night. i wore my stop wars shirt like always and stood directly in front of tim. he gave me some acknowledgement hah. someone i gave the plate to handed it to carter before the encore and he walked offstage holding it. i thought for sure we were getting halloween. the energy tonight was unparalleled. scranton 10 > spac 09...disregarding the encore, haha. the jams tonight were incredible. i can't wait to download this set and listen to it daily until 2012

Great set, great performances, great city. Unpredictable opener, unpredictable flow to the setlist (but in a good way). Perfect. Just couldn't give it a 5 because the encore was pretty meh. Any set with Billies, Cry Freedom, GiG, Busted Stuff, and an INSTRUMENTAL INTRO is a gooder for me!

great show. so much energy from the band and the great crowd around us (7 rows behind the pit). we were straight out from the left stack and carters bass kick vibrated us all night. ha. this venue was so great and the parking staff was awesome. back at my hotel 20 min after getting in my car.
my shows of 2010 go Scranton>Hershey>PNC, but they were all great.

Bruises on the back of my calves and fans and even vendors dancing in the aisles! all signs that you know this show rocked! Opened with The Stone into Warehouse, two songs I was wishing for! Encore ended with Thank You! Dave ditched his guitar and just danced across the stage! Then shook hands with front row/pit... Amazing amazing show on the Mountaintop!

One of the best shows I have seen in 12 years of seeing DMB. Everything was incredible. I love Montage and I love DMB. Thank you so much DMB. I cannot wait to see you again. PS this was the 3rd longest show in history. incredible.

UNREAL!!! and comparing last year at the same venue, just awe inspiring. This show was talked about in great detail, and i must agree with it all, solid opening run, PNP>Rapunzel for the 1st time this tour. Short of maybe a Blackjack tease, i couldnt ask for more. And i also have no issue with the encore at all. Stronger songs? Sure, there could have been. But i felt it was an awesome energy realease with SDL/Thank You. esp. the chant closing out the show.

Dave show no. 8! Cant believe the number of amazing songs Dave played on our last PA stop. Everything from The Stone (Cant help fallin in love), Grace is Gone, TRIPPING BILLIES!! ONE SWEET WORLD!!! Dave breaking 2 guitar strings! especially during his tare in So Damn Lucky.
A week long trip of 4 straight Dave shows I will never forget! Made the purchase already for both Wrigley shows to end the 2010 tour and 20 years of touring. Cant wait. See ya all in Chicago!!

this was my 34th show, my 7th of the summer may be the best ive ever seen. this is up there with spac 09 and burgettstown 09 as far as im concerned. 5 rows back dead center in the pit made it that much better. as soon as the opened with the stone, i knew this show would be epic. warehouse, grace, osw with the old school intro, improv, pnp rapunzel for the first time this tour, and busted stuff....are u kidding? they were on fire too, really looked they had a blast on stage. i know on paper the encore looks really weak and some people didnt like it, and typically i would have hated it too and i actually hated hearing thank you a few times before, but they way the crowd got into it and took over the ending and kept it going was great. dave loved it. and too be honest, im just thrilled anytime i dont hear watchtower in the encore. also, not having to hear cornbread at all was equally as awesome as this show was. not sure if i can wait til wrigley.....

Very good show, never really liked Jeff coffin until tonites show... He can play the heck out of a sax. Incredible 41 jam, and pulled our a lot of diffferent tunes... But didn't like cry freedom, hands of God, and gravedigger right in the middle of the set... Was an energy killler.

Incredible set list, incredible energy. Of the five shows seen this summer, this was the most memorable for the energy and flow that the night had. It helped to be in the pit about 10 people back, but the whole place was alive and it was one great song after another. Only the encore could have been a bit "bigger." Great crowds at Montage, and the band seems to enjoy it there up on the mountain.

The band began with one of the best show openers I've heard. The set was very consistent in it's awesomeness, had only a few repeats from the last show, and had a lot more songs from my favorite DMB albums. Unfortunately, the encore (So Damn Lucky) came around and it was the one we just got at Hershey a few days ago! Huge disappointment. Other than that flaw, this show was killer, another one of the best shows I've been to.

Best show this tour. Killed #41 and debuted PNP>Rapunzel. When Carter grabbed that pumpkin sign during the break, I was hoping for some Halloween. Hope to hear it at Citi

Excellent show, excellent set list. Heavy on the "Before These Crowded Streets". PNP/Rapunzel was a treat but I becoming increasingly tired of Jeff Coffin. He needs to just fade onto the background. Also, I'm sick of the electric guitar, Busted Stuff is one of my favorites and Tim is ruining it for me. On another note, the Encore SUCKED. I can't stand "You and Me" and would have much rather heard "Digging a Ditch". and furthermore, "Thank You, for let me be mice elf" sucks as well. Horrible encore. Horrible.

My 32nd show and can honestly say that this was the best I have been to. Great set, great mix, and some suprises along the way. Even the encore, which I was hoping for something different, was alot of fun. Only problem is that I will be finishing the year with Citi Field on Saturday and I'm not quite sure this set can be topped.....atleast thats what I said about SPAC 2009 N2

great show tonight...excellent main set, with minor exceptions..could have done without lying in the hands of god, but hey you can't get it all...stone and warehouse were incredible openers to the set. id give the show a 5 star rating if the encore wasn't so poor. You and Me and So Damn Lucky really killed the energy of a killer first set. Cant complain too much though, this show was probably the longest all tour and really was a great night. next up Tampa!!

My first time at this venue. Very cool place. We were in standing room only in the pit and very very close. We saw Ken from SPAC there and stayed in a hotel basically right down the mountain. We also met up with Dan and Erin and we all got pretty drunk and Erin had to drive back. The show was amazing and very cool being that close.

Stupendous show! With all the songs they've played this year, this was a fantastic example of how a set can (and should) look. My personal highlight was Busted Stuff, as I had never heard it before. However, #41 and Two Step were outstanding performances in their own right, which helped lead to 2 hours and 50 minutes of music!! I must admit the encore was pretty weak but still a strong set. I would have to give this show a 4.8, which speaks volumes about how much I enjoyed the show. Amazing, amazing redemption after seeing the show in Bethel the night before.
Of course, I'm biased, as I had a pit ticket and was 2 people back from Boyd for the night! :)

A great night on the mountain with some great friends and family. This show was what a DMB show should be, a good mix of old and new, some suprises, and a great performace. I left Bethel saying this was it, but Scranton left me yearning for more and hoping Saterday in NYC gets here so much faster!

great great show! Really good songs with some obscure placements in the set, Boyd was a beast! The encore could have been better, but if the boys were half as tired as I was then I understand the cool down at the end. This was one of the strongest bodies of work and music I have seen between The Stone and 2Step, I said befor and I will say it again he sure does like Montage for some reason and you can tell.

Show number 16 was great as we were in he pit. The day was just fun. We had this one guy before the show while online just tell everyone that the Live Nation line goes in before everyone else..he was sitting in this pink chair..i hate people like this so I had fun with it all night...As for the show..
It was a fun show from top to bottom..highlights is always 41 YMDT was on and Seven has come a long way. I felt a different energy from the band tonight..they looked like they were having a lot of fun on stage. Tripping Billies tore the house down..I met some great people at this show and it was just a pleasureful day all around!!
