This was the most I had listened to a show this summer. Certainly they are better than last go around, still not really my thing but I can certainly see why people like it. Kinda sounds like Mayer has been listening to Phish, some of their jams had that kind of thing that Trey does but getting quicker to the point..... still less psychedelic but certainly with more authority
It stars at 3:19:48, seems ok at first but a complete train wreck by 3:21:39, they stop the song!! Bob tells Mayer to resume pretty much where they left off and it’s on again. After that it’s ok, tempo is good and some interesting jamming but heavy on the superfluous guitar school licks. I liked the 11, bob did a great job with the lyrics. Again too much flashy guitar that I didn’t care for shortly before drums starting around 3:50:45. So my take on that Stephen > 11 is that it was good, had moments, and maybe the best one Dead Co has done.
Listened to set I (of 6/16) last night & set II tonight. Very good music for DeadCo. Some shows of theirs have been lackluster, but that one & first night (6/15) NYC sounded OK.
It's nice to see that it wasn't too overcrowded and that plenty of cheap tickets were available.
Certainly would have been fun to attend, but so was watching the Yard-Toads hop around eating bugs.
5-6 hrs. travel time for me to get to citiField in Flushing.
Great weekend in Queens. Citifield is a real nice place especially if you enjoy spending money.
Food and beer choices are limitless
We went in early and watched from above as thousands of folks were being merged into single file to enter and the band had come on stage. We knew from last year that it would be a complete clusterfuck for those heading in last minute and sure enough it was real bad. That would be my one complaint. They have to either use more gates or speed up the entry process. Looking down on these thousands of folks I thought there was going to be a riot.
It was another great time @ Citi Field. Friday, we had bought the $20 all in rafter seats. We went in early, took the elevators to the 500 section. There was an employee up there with literally hundreds of upgrade tickets. We were given club seats in sec 119 with a private bar and a bathroom directly under the section. We had some much space it was crazy.
Saturday we got in for the 2 for 1 deal and were on the floor. Two solid shows.
That was pretty funny. Bob fucks up the lyrics and Mayer is to afraid to lead the band through what could have been a stumble, and he just stops and looks at Bobby.
Excuse me? I’m relating things that people have told me. You can fuck right off cut-and-paste-adamus.. I’ve been one of the people who haven’t piled on you for your bullshit threads maybe you should find another person to fuck with buddy.
