I've been to only three Dave shows, so I can't pose as an expert. But I've seen them do better than this. Don't get me wrong even the worst Dave show is 10,000 times better than even the best of most other bands, but tonights was a little rough. Some of Leroi's solos were a little squeeky and the set list wasn't that great. But still an amazing night. What Would You Say and Watchtower were both incredible. And Best of What's Around is an amazing encore song. I think that the highlight of the night for me had to have been Help Myself. It's one of my all time favorite songs and I've never heard him play it live. It was great. Overall it was a great night...Good place, good friends, and the best band out there.

Out of 9 shows this was by far the best... I went to both nights at spac last year, and they were out of this world, but this show was even better.. The setlist was great, but that does not tell the whole story.. I am not going to go through it song by song because I am sure everyone else is going to. The energy from the band, as well as from the crowd was to a level I have never seen before... I can't even explain how much effort the guys put into this show... Dave was screaming to the top of his lungs, I couldn't even believe it, and because the crowd gave so much back, it was like the band kept bringing it to the next level. I have been to a few venues in the NE, hartford, hershey, albany, and spac, and with out a doubt DMB puts on the best show at spac, no question. DON'T EVER MISS SPAC IF YOU LIVE IN THE AREA. It lives up to it's hype every year.
