Review:
My first show ever.
And I hated it.
Before I go into why, please understand it had nothing to do with the band. I probably listened to a handful of the set, and it was a mistake I regret to this day.
I went to the show with my girlfriend and four of her friends, and I was the only one not drinking. Long story short, I didn't know the band, didn't know the music, wasn't happy to be there and moped the entire time.
Again, huge mistakes all of them.
But it was that night that I really started to listen to the band, with Drive In, Drive Out and Watchtower particularly catching my ear.
From there on out, I was a fan, and I enjoyed every show to its fullest afterward.
As for the show itself, great weather and of course a fantastic parking lot scene (for those who haven't been to Nissan, it's one of the better East Coast Venues to pre party at).
I remember the crowd energy being great (I remember distinctly, because I was the only loser within eye sight sitting.)
Anyway, I wish I had more details, but the band did enough that night to make me a believer afterward, so I remember it being a good one.
Cheers...

First major venue DMB show for me - and apparently first bra to be thrown on stage during a Dave set.

This was my first Dave show and everything about it was so electric! I remember the rain pouring down around the pavilion that closed us all in (sorry lawn people) I definitely remember screaming the words to Satellite as the lights fanned from the stage out into the audience. So much of this show was amazing just because it was the 1st time I had heard them live. We had made the trip down from Penn State for the day and I remember the long drive back just bouncing from the energy from the show. I was hooked from that moment.

My first show ever....9 of my friends and we got great seats. Two Step, Best of Whats Around and Watchtower I remember vividly. I was 15 and it was the first show I was allowed to go to. Hooked for life. I\'m so glad I went!!

First big outdoor headlining show I saw them. A bit sad for me, cause it drove home the fact that the "small" venue days were over. On the other hand I saw how much people loved them and that was great.

First large venue show I saw - it rained a lot! Fun time though - weird seeing them in such a big place. Lawn seats were ok but a little wet.

This was my first DMB show, so I was a little young to appreciate it.

My first show. I just didn't get it at the time. It all sunk in quickly afterward. I was hooked.
