That probably had a lot to do with us luckily getting directed to a spot really close to the gate.

It had to be a staffing issue.

    Ladies and gentlemen... Tampa tape is up! https://dreamingtree.org/torrents.php?id=4119

    Zach is an MVP for editing these (and with *such* good info/text files) for me while I am on the road at the shows. I hope you enjoy it, I tried to get a good capture for everyone.

    We're trying quite seriously to tape/get every show taped in 2021. Let's see if that can actually happen.

    https://dreamingtree.org/torrents.php?id=4119
    24 bit is up as well there.

    I agree with you that it had to be staffing. That back lot entrance by the Taco Bus is always such a good lot. It's a heck of a walk to the venue but the trade off is you are out very quickly after the show. We need the pandemic to be over ASAP because that main lot I parked in was straight hell. Probably because I parked at 4:30 and they put us so close to the actual like, gate to walk into the show. Ugh.

    No only inside the venue. Typically on both sides where concessions are. The merch does tend to sell quickly after the doors open.

    These will be my 9th and 10th shows, first since 2012. Super stoked after seeing the Tampa setlist.

    Time to break the You Never Know curse after 17 shows of never getting it!!!!

    Hope they fix the mixing issues for this weekend, it’s crazy to read how many people have noticed how bad it sounds in these first few shows?

    I'm interested to see if Tom is still mixing FOH.
    He was their long-time system tech working alongside Bagby who left I think in 2018. Either way, the first couple shows of any tour are rarely perfect. Plus nobody has really been doing shows on this scale for the past year and a half, there is a slight re-learning curve, but I hope they have it sorted for this weekend.

    Ya I think you’re right about the mix taking a few shows to perfect especially when the tour is first starting out, I just don’t ever remember in previous years hearing this many people talking about it.

    It's a "feels like 108" outside. Stay hydrated. Car battery got roasted, just got a new one. Laptop broke in the trunk I guess from the heat. Crazy.

    Tom is there. They will get it dialed in, he's good.

    I'm not in Florida or going to these shows but thought I'd comment here ... In one of the summer tours somewhat recently there were a bunch of issues with their mix and I remember someone from part of the DMB team reaching out on Ants for what people were hearing, thought it was very cool to get audience input in that way. They definitely try to get it right and I'm sure they are aware of the issues, would expect it to get corrected quickly.

    Last ditch effort/request to see if anyone has N1 WPB lowers. Hoping to drive from Tampa and take my son but need to leave before 3pm. If anyone knows of any, please DM me at 513-257-5363. Thanks.

    WPB allows "One sealed water bottle"
    I'm bringing a gallon jug.
    Looks like more rain is about to start in broward about 30 miles south, should just be summer afternoon showers. Looks like cloudy and 85 at showtime

    Ya that’s pretty cool… I’m sure they will get it right they are always working to get it dialed in (hopefully it’s this weekend though lol)… either way super pumped to get to go to shows this year.

    I didn't notice that at all. Tim was quiet. You could absolutely hear Dave's guitar. Buddy might have been a bit on the quiet side. But aside from that, what's the problem?

    And Bagby left?? I didn't know that! Anyone know why?

    The majority of people were saying the horns are non existent in the mix?

    They were quiet for me in Raleigh and Charlotte, but I could hear them loud and clear in Atlanta. Wasn't at Tampa but will be at WPB, so hoping they have them dialed in.
