    Not sure how to answer because I went to 5 shows in '18, first Gorge trip, had a blast but they sound better and are playing better and the show was better in '21

    First Gorge shows were this year, so that taints me a bit. But I'm still super partial to 2019. Much less CT than 18 and better encores than 21. Also got my first Spoon and BOWA at my lone 2019 show.

    Agree

    Also went to first gorge trip in 2018, they sound better now than they did then

    Im excited for the first time in a long time to see DMB in person again because of how their sound is

    I feel like 2010- 2016 has been one big blur of wall of sound and im never listening to these shows willingly.

    Id go back and listen to 2021 shows

    Can I pick the double set years, or are you talking post 2 sets?

    I would love to see a full show acoustic and loved the two sets. Hell, I’d rather go see Dave solo or D&T than see the full band at this point.

    Between 2021, 2018 and 2016 there's really not too too much of a difference for me. I'll say:

    2021
    2018
    2016
    2019

    2018 sounded fresh and energized for the May, June, and the first part of July. Then it got stale (had a nice Gorge stand though). 2021 has been pretty solid all the way through. 2016 had some bright spots but the darkness on stage with BT was palpable at times and the performances sort of dipped as a result. 2019 was not one of my favorites.
