    Watching Brass Monkey from Jones Beach 2 last year and getting pumped for Tuesday and Wednesday! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4xwXEV6Dx0

    So excited for the best part of my summer. Nothing makes me happier than seeing my favorite bands, and it is so welcomed at this time for me right now. 2 days til bliss!

    The 2 shows this past weekend look unreal on paper. 5 days until Camden.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Same here! Fantastic set, everyone sounded great and were in good spirits- can't ask for much more! Wish the crowd was a bit more attentive (Elvis tag on The Stone and Thank You tag on So Damn Lucky were sadly absent), but I was having a blast so minor complaints!

    And, to top it off, FINALLY HEARD DRIVE IN DRIVE OUT! I need a new holy grail now :D:D:D

    Agreed! Ants I'm still not tired of, but very much over Watchtower at this point. But yesterday after hearing Drive In Drive Out I turned to my friend and said, "They could play Watchtower now and I wouldn't even be mad" :lol:

    A fun night at Jones Beach yet again! Surprised night 1 was better than night 2 setlist wise for me, that normally doesn't happen! But the crowd and sound last night was much better, I thought. A bit disappointed the run didn't see JTR or Captain. But Don't Fear the Reaper, Jane, Bayou and You Might Die Trying were highlights last night. Got to shake Carter's hand briefly before the show and at the end of the show went to Boyd's "gathering" and got to meet/take a picture with him! He really is the nicest man--I don't know anyone else who would stay that long to give every fan the time of day and then some. Just another reason to love this band!

    Still not over the fact Boyd does this...stayed past 2:30 AM yesterday AFTER busting his ass for 2.5 hours onstage...unreal. What a stand-up guy.

    :mrgreen::mrgreen: It was AMAZING! Best part was how friggin unexpected it was. DIDO for the first song of the encore?! I was just hoping for Sister or Oh! I heard the first few notes, my best friend and I turned to each other and basically I attacked her. And DAMN that song sounds as good live as I was hoping :D I hope you get it at Alpine!! I think it could be the year!

    I can't wait too! First time at Alpine myself. Never got into shows when I was younger and then I joined the Army and never got back home to see DMB there. So excited to see them and GPN next weekend. After some good luck, we upgraded to Pit for both nights! :D

    I have this problem where once I start going to shows I don't want to stop.

    After those Jones Beach shows I am trying really hard to make Bethel next week. :D

    That's exactly my problem. And I did that last year--after Hartford 1 and the Jones Beach shows I got a day-of ticket to Bethel! This year the Jones shows might not be enough either, and I'm trying to make the Bristow, VA one--always wanted to see DMB in VA!

  • Went to Camden 1 last night. Avg show with some solid highlights.

    Quick question as I don't follow the band that much but have seen them a bunch.

    What is the jam that they go into after "Big Eyed Fish" / "bartender" with the flute? For some odd reason,it sounded like a U2 tag... I just couldn't place it. I didn't think to record it.

    Anyone?
    9.29.96, 8.28.98, 9.1.00, 7.5.03, 9.30.05, 6.1.06, 6.19.08, 6.20.08, 6.24.08, 10.27.09, 10.28.09, 10.30.09, 5.20.10, 9.3.11, 9.4.11, 9.2.12, 7.19.13...

    2013- Brooklyn2, Philly1, Philly2, NOLA

    My advice, if you can take the extra drive, is to see him in VA Beach. I live in Richmond and am right between Charlottesville, DC and VA Beach. Charlottesville is always the winter/fall shows and you should try with all your might to see him there. Nothing like it since it is the home show and also a small arena. It's the best.

    But for the summer, he always plays with more energy and a better setlist in VA Beach vs. Bristow. Bristow SUCKS to get in/out of. It's a two lane road whereas VA Beach sits in an urban area, so lots of routes. Bad thing about VA Beach is the fuzz. Tailgating is non-existent.

    I was lucky enough to score center pit for the Beach show. Super excited.

    Thanks for the info! It'd have to be Bristow this time, though, as I have work that Friday. Still not sure if I'm gonna go....my mom wants me to go away with her that weekend but I'd MUCH rather see Dave :lol:


    ALSO: WHOMEVER WAS AT THE CAMDEN SHOW LAST NIGHT WE PROBABLY CAN'T BE FRIENDS ANYMORE. Holy effin crap that setlist! :o :shock: :o (If I was a show snob at this time I'd say where was THAT sorta show for Jones Beach night 2...but beggars can't be choosers!)
