    Thought it was a pretty good show. Probably the best Davespeak of any show I've been to. Dude actually had me laughing several times.

    They moved WWYS to encore, added SDL to the main set in its place. Cut DDTW, Jane, and Ants, added Grace and LIOG reprise.

    Post show I knew some major modifications had been made to the set. Now I'm not sure I would have preferred the original. Loved the reprise.

    I wonder why this show wasn't at oak mountain? I Definitely perfer that amphitheater. I mean this amphitheater was ok but I feel like oak mountain is way nicer. Tuscaloosa is not that good of a town I perfer Pelham way over t-town.

    Like I'm always going to make a show if they play here but just saying..

    Yes, there was a confirmed taper there..... problem is the mic stand was being blown around pretty bad towards the end of the night so who knows how it will turn out.

    Unfortunately The new amp in Brandon is going to be the exact same. I'm excited that we will have a local amp but I'm with you on the "feel" of the huge pit in front ampys

    Why do you like Pelham better? I like Tuscaloosa simply because of all the bars and restaurants within walking distance.

    I liked Pelham better simply because it seemed everyone that was there were there to see them play. Tuscaloosa was a younger college crowd and I think the partying was their main concern. Just my opinion.

    I gotcha. That makes sense. I had people around me all night that were there just talking and not even looking at the stage. However, in 2015 I had one of my best experiences but I was 4 rows deep in the pit. If I ever do another D&T show, I'll probably pay for premium or just not worry about it and buy the cheapest tix I can find. Paying extra for decent but not great seats was not worth it with all of the chatter. I had to keep telling myself I was going to have a good time and not worry about it.

    Tuscaloosa is a great city, you just don't know your way around, obviously. Pelham is closer to Birmingham, but other than that you're pretty limited. Ton of stuff to do in Tuscaloosa!

    Had a great time last night - even with all the chatty folks around me. Was really hoping they were going into Ants after that LIOG reprise but not surprised considering it was pouring. Half the crowd left after the first encore so we were able to walk up to dead center about 6 rows back for the final encore. Can't wait for Alpharetta!

    Idk I guess i just like the more suburb feel of Pelham. Plus you got that Mexican restaurant within closer walking distance then anything in t- town. Plus you got a state park right next to oak mountain. And also I feel like oak mountain is a better run amphitheater. Just my opinion. I always really liked that amphitheater.

    Dave mentioned someone had died during the show. Who was that again?

    I think Tuscaloosa is a nicer and more intimate venue. I think they have different management companies too.

    I prefer Oak Mountain (probably one of my favorite venues). But I can understand why they'd choose Tuscaloosa. Probably has nicer amenities for the band backstage.

    It's going to be so nice having that amp there. I'm bummed they didn't have that amp there when I lived in Brandon but at least my in-laws live close enough we can make the trip down with a free place to stay.

    I'm curious how traffic will be with that venue. Every event I went to in Brandon, the traffic was horrible.

    If dmb or Dave and tim ever came to Brandon that would be insane for me just because I live like less then 10 min away. Would really be a good time but I doubt that will ever happened. One can dream tho.

    I got ya'. It is pretty nice to walk right out of Oak Mtn into Applebee's and smash on their half-priced appetizers. I like both places, but Tuscaloosa's college crowd can definitely get annoying.

    I sat next to a guy who taped it, security came and tried to stop him about the time the rain started falling, but his girlfriend wasn't very understandable when I asked on which site they would upload.

    Does anyone have audio/video or a link from the D&T show in Tuscaloosa when Dave tells a girl from the crowd who yelled out to him that he couldn't see her but that she sounded pretty?
