Perfect start to the week in Nashville. The weather was perfect and there was a general buzz and excitement in the air. The merch and GA lines were energized and in great spirits!
Indifference opening surprised me which I took as a sign the rest of the night will as well and indeed it did. I really enjoyed the ebb and flow of the setlist, felt like we were lifting all night long. I thought Brain of J into Green Disease sounded polished and brought me right back to a show at a venue on tour 20 years ago somewhere. I thought Come Back was a highlight and Ed pulled it off. My 2nd Got To Give and I enjoyed this one most. I’m biased for DTE at the encore so I was pleased and it was an energetic take too. Unfortunate a person went down during Setting Sun but once he was fine I was pleased the band restarted it from the top - always a rousing performance! Watchtower surprised me as well and thought it was fun!
Glad to be here in Nashville.

This was my 3rd of the 4 run Atlanta/Nashville and what I'm loving the most about this tour is not just how their doing the typical weaving in of rare gems with the new stuff and classics, but how they're moving things around. I mean - Indifference as a closer Atlanta I then as an opener for Nash I? Insane. Given to Fly, Cordoroy and Wreckage pushed back in the set a few songs. Evolution in the Encore, then early in set w/o video then back to the encore.
They always make every show different, but this is like a whole other level of freedom they're expressing on this tour (Did I mention Indifference as both a closer and opener in the span of 3 shows?! Wild).
Oh - and while I like Gigaton as an album better, the Dark Matter songs definitely play better live than I'd say any of their last 4 albums (not necessarily individual songs, but in its entirety). So, now Waiting for Stevie and Something Special on Thursday, please!
The Golden Age is 2 months away. And guess what….. you’re gonna love it! (teskeinc 11.19.24)

I got Brain of J and Green Disease. And even though I'm not a fan, Got To Give, which finally completed Dark Matter for me. The Watchtower closer was a nice surprise too.
However, I will say, even though I do like Come Back, that was one of the worst setlist placements I've ever seen. Really killed the vibe in the room.

Absolutely an amazing show. No complaints. Brain Of J into Green Disease was fantastic. And any show you get Porch AND RVM is a win! Loved that Eddie was playing it again, because wasn’t Josh playing a lot of his parts in the song as of late?
Cool pictures @ DR Emmett Brown.
So good! Thanks for sharing.
