These guys were great. 25 songs. Buffalo Springfield and Simon and Garfunkel covers. For last encore, Pete, Chad and Brad went to the upper level of Red Bull Arena and zip lined down to stage while singing. For people who don't know about them, they are a real treat. All three sing lead vocals on different songs, every show has a compete different set list and they play to the crowd like true professionals. I am clearly looking forward to Boston and also feel DMB got the better opening act for their 20 year anniversary.

    I don't know much about them, but I'm looking forward to checking them out at the DMB Caravan at Governor's Island.

    You will not be disappointed. They played to a large crowd at Red Bull Arena (approx. 25k) and they killed it. They remind me of PJ in regards to the totality of their sets. They come out to a big opener then play hard and fast. First encore is an accoustic set, second is covers and hits and they come back strong with never ending encores..

    Sounds like an amazing show! Already had tickets to see Yeasayer that night but if I hadn't have seen them, I would have DEFINITELY been at that Dispatch show! Would love to see them sometime in the future!

    I had friends who went last night and touched them as they came out to start the show. They said the show was off the hook.

    could never really get into these guys.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.
