Spent Friday and Saturday nights happily grooving to Trey Anastasio Band at the fantastic Fox Theater in Oakland!
TAB was crushing jams laced with tropical Samba, Rhumba, Reggae, Ska, Funk, Blues, Soul, Soca, Jazz and Rock rhythms - this is not Phish and there's no feeling like you are on the outside of some innie inside joke - this is pure jammy goodness filled with tight rhythms (featuring Russ Lawton on drums, Cyro Baptista rattling and shaking a world of percussion toys, Tony Markellis with a stand-mounted P Bass laying down the law of the goove, Ray Paczakowski on B3, Rhodes and other keys and the fantastic singing horns of Natalie, "Chainsaw," Cressman, (Trombone) Jen Hartswick (Trumpet) and James Casey (Tenor and Bari Sax.) Trey of course melted faces! Check the Dazed & Confused for the peak moments~!

I liked this band back when
I liked this band back when Trey was doing heroin and doing the whale noises all the time and Jeff Sipe was drumming but I now kinda think this band is just kind of bland, jams are shorter and less out there. I can't even listen to Money Love and Change it used to be such a behemoth song but they just whisper through it now

There's always gonna be
There's always gonna be negative perspectives - I expect them at VLZ.
But the only neg I can see about what I saw at TAB is that there's a consistency of "sameness," to the formula of many songs - a particular rhythm kicks a tune off - Trey sings, a few solo's happen or an ensemble arrangement blows up and then Trey plays an intelligently formed, but noodly solo that peaks with epic energy and the song ends....
I accept your criticismHotNannySF but if you weren't in the room, I have no respect for it.

Nothing negative about what I said, it's just the facts. Was that your first TAB show?

I check out shows from each tour they do since I like a number of the songs they do better than many Phish songs and the Maine show I listened to was good but it made me not want to go to the Fox show. Glad you enjoyed it. They are a great band, they just need to get loose and play some songs longer

Tastes vary - but I saw a lot of long jams at the Fox this past weekend.

I had no idea that Jeff was in TAB for a tour (2006), had to look that one up. I even saw the Albany show that tour and didn't notice in all honesty. I really like Russ, really nice guy IMO

Was glancing at a set list
Was glancing at a set list from Saturday (https://www.setlist.fm/setlists/jake-holmes-23d7ac1b.html) when I noticed that Dazed & Confused was attributed to Jake Holmes, not Page & Plant. This piqued my curiosity and I found this on Wikipedia:
Jake Holmes (born December 28, 1939 in San Francisco, California) is an American singer-songwriter and jingle writer who began a recording career in the 1960s. Holmes, who has a particular talent for writing clever, perceptive lyrics, is perhaps best known as the original author of the song "Dazed and Confused", later reworked by Led Zeppelin, and for composing the music to US Army recruitment jingle "Be All That You Can Be" for the words created by Earl Carter in the 1980s. The jingle and subsequent advertising campaign was used extensively by the US government throughout the 1980s. Holmes also co-wrote the "Be a Pepper" jingle for the Dr Pepper soft drink.
