Way better show than night one, by ten fold. Glad to see SU&D and Kit Kat making a return. First time in 36 shows hearing Hello Again, couldn't have been more pleased! Cry Freedom is one of the best Dave tunes of all time. The crowd sang Nancies to perfection, and the outro to Jimi Thing was unbelievable, "Sexy motherf*cker, shaking that @ss, shaking that @ss!" Great show, one of the best I've seen!

Great show. Great set. The crowd could have been more into it, but that's what you get with a Tuesday night concert. Damn work.....

I don't know how the first review didn't see any energy, were you in the lawn? I thought Dave was jacked up all night and the sound was amazing under the roof. The first 5 songs was a sick run, first time hearing sweet up and down live. I'm pretty sure Dave didn't sing any of the verses during Dancies. Cry Freedom was perfectly placed and Hello Again, Idea of You were awesome. Look out for Can't Stop this tour, it has really beefed up and I bet by the end of the tour that song will be rocking. Kit Kat Jam in encore was sick and unexpected, Two Step outro left me speechless. The guys are rocking this year!

A lot of energy - Great start to the show. Highlights were Sweet Up and Down, Jimi Thing, Nancies, Hello Again and You Might Die Trying. When the 12-string came out for the encore, I was sure it was Grey Street. Somewhat disappointed with Kit Kat Jam although it was a special request for a young fan. After 69 shows, I can't say it made my top 5, but standing in the pit was great, and it is obvious the band was into it.

Cry Freedom and Can't Stop were amazing to go along with a solid setlist. Watchtower was EPIC and pumped up everyone, it's much better during the set as opposed to the last song of the encore. Kit Kat Jam seemed alittle out of place in the encore, but Two Step rocked.

Very high energy show. Stellar Jimi Thing. Nice to see Nancies with no vocals and the crowd singing the lyrics. High energy Two Step encore. You & Me has really come alive well. Problem was too many songs in the 2nd half of the set that sounded alike, with an oddly-Stand Up type electric/monotonous sound (Sweet Up & Down, Idea of You, Can't Stop, Shake Me Like a Monkey, etc.)

Dave told us he was tired when he introduced the Yonder Mountain String Band. He then proved once again how truly devoted he is to giving us his all. Terrific performances, and I absolutely loved the setlist. Every song a winner tonight: BEF,Bartender,Seven,Jimi Thing,Sweet Up and Down,You And Me,Dancing Nancies,Cry Freedom,Hello Again,The Idea Of You,Shake Me Like A Monkey,Can't Stop,Crash Into Me,Gravedigger,You Might Die Trying,All Along The Watchtower Encore: Kit Kat Jam,Two Step

one of the best dave nights i've had. i was lucky enough to be bringing someone to not only his first dave concert, but his first concert ever - so needless to say, we were both really thrilled.

My second DMB show was okay. At the time, when I still was unfamiliar with a number of his songs, I didn't really enjoy this show that much. In retrospect however, they did play some songs that I did enjoy, such as Cry Freedom, Nancies, and Two Step. Along with that, they also played songs that I didn't know at the time, but I do enjoy today, such as the Idea Of You, Big Eyed Fish (I fell in love with this one when I first heard it here), and Bartender. Overall, not a very good show for my younger self, but an okay one for a more hardcore fan.

3rd row stage right! Was the last of 6 shows on the 2010 tour, as i saw them in Hartford and SPAC before traveling to Mansfield.
Great show, full of energy, and a really fun setlist. Kit Kat Jam, Sweet Up and Down, Hello Again, Idea of You, and the opener of Big Eyed Fish>Bartender were all fantastic. Cry Freedom was great and my seat location had me in awe. Such a great way to end my mini tour of DMB2010!

Amazing compared to n1. Boyd barely moved n1, n2 he was his old, bouncy energetic self. BEF => Bartender opener was epic. Crowd-sourcing Nancies will be remembered. Watchtower was great, even without the Stairway solo. Great show.

Really good show, certainly much better than N1. Great opening trio of songs and Jimi was fantastic. The horn section (again ripping it up) and Tim's solo during Jimi had Dave just standing to Boyd's left watching it all unfold and smiling. It was cool to see that. Boyd went wild on the crowd-sung Dancing Nancies stopping to one-on-one jam with Dave, then Stefan, then Boyd and Carter. The Idea of You was great, and the only thing that seemed off the whole night was a choppy Two Step. I was glad they played limited Big Whisky because this band's soul was created by the vibe of past tunes. Glad to see the vibe on tour...

Decent show... first night was better - probably because I was dead center section 2...
I'm not a big fan of about 6-8 songs that were played. Bartender, Jimi Thing, YMDT, Kit Kat Jam, Two Step - great!

Even though we found out that our GA Pit tickets that we got off of Stub Hub were counterfeit, I didn't let it get me down. I sweet talked my way into the lower pavilion (I think they saw the look of emptiness on my face), so I was still able to watch from great seats.
The set on Monday night was very BW heavy, which I love, however being my 21-22 DMB shows, I want to see some old-timers and rare ones. Especially since they are taking 2011 off. Tuesday night was EVERYTHING. An evenly distributed playlist with new intros/outros/solos. I was smiling ear to ear the entire time and was completely blown away. 5 stars from me because they provided exactly what I was looking for.

I have to say this was one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. Maybe because I didn't tailgate as hard and I can remember it all haha. Great opening with BEF n Bartender, sick Jimi Thing Jam, Nancies was great. Did he even sing during the entire song? I had to write a review because I enjoyed almost every song. Even when he brought it down it was Cry Freedom. Carter has been ripping it up this tour too which is always a treat. Thanks Guys!!!

Stronger set than SPAC this year in my opinion. Crowd was wicked into it, and DMB responded to the energy
