Great venue for D+T. I didn't have any interference from annoying chatter. I thought crowd was great. Solid show IMO, not stellar but satisfying.

    Not really weird, they don't want you bringing in water bottles filled with vodka. Or worse, some sort of explosive liquid. They can be as weird as they want to keep me safe.

    I'm pretty sure I could have front row seats and somehow still end up with a group that doesn't watch the show at all and talks the entire time. Oh wait, they did watch it for like 5 mins to take pictures and videos to post/snapchat/whatever to all their friends.

    Guess it depends where you're sitting. I had to bail on my pavilion seats a little over half way through because the crowd was such a shit show.

    I thought the sound was a little rough, at least near center pav. Went out to side lawn half through, and found it way better

    Re: *** Official Blossom D&T 2017 ***

    Last night was my first full Dave + Tim show (of course I'd seen just the two of the them start out the "acoustic set" before) and I am very happy with it. I thought Dave sounded great all night, Tim was fantastic and Dave looked to be having a good time. I only have minor complaints about the setlist, as always I'm never a huge Of fan of WAYG, I could've done without Everyday (but it was still good) and 100% did not need to hear OOMH live again. But if that's all I can say? I had a great night. I finally got to hear Say Goodbye and my second Fool To Think in a row. Overall it was just a great show and I look forward to see them at Farm Aid even though it's not even close to as long of a set as this show was. They went on around 7:55-7:57 and ended around 10:45. I ended up with two of Timmy's picks as well!

    I was in section 13, row O so I had a great seat. Most of the people around me where pretty good, not too much talking or annoyance. Besides the guy about 5 rows in front of me who decided to hold his arm and his huge hamhock hand up all damn night blocking the sight line of Dave. Getting out of the Lot was a breeze for me. I got lucky and had a spot close to an isle and by time I got tot my car after trying for a setlist, getting the pics and buying merch I was in my car and on the road in less then 10 minute but there was still a ton of traffic.

    Not a drop. They postponed the rain at the beginning of the show and kept it turned off the remainder of the night

    I parked in the grass and had no issues with water/mud at all.

    In regards to the crowd, I was in section 33 row K and everyone was great. No chatter, just singing and dancing. People behind us kept an eye on my poster for me as well! We paid it forward and gave 2 ppl who were stranded a ride back to their hotel in Fairlawn. All in all a great night!!

    I also had no real annoying annoyances. The girl beside me was a pretty tipsy but still nice to have a conversation with. Even though she thought JTR was called GTR....

    Great show last night. Amazing to finally cross D&T off my list after 14 years of listening to them. No complaints about the crowd or the set list but the sound was kind of shitty in the pavilion, which was surprising. I was at far stage right in section 22 and the first few songs I could barely hear tim. It improved over the evening but I couldn't hear anything dave was saying during his davespeak, it was just a muffled mess of sounds.

    For such a nice an acoustically designed pavilion it was pretty surprising to have less than ideal sound for two guys with acoustic guitars. But whatever, I still had a blast. Dave really pours his heart and soul into every song

    The thing is, though, I taped, and had a bag full of stuff they didn't even look at. The lady wanding me was more concerned with what I might have had in my pockets than the multiple items in my bag. Security in Rochester for D&F was much tighter, and that was 2003. They looked at each individual mic, had me power up my recorder and everything. I'm just glad they let my gear in; they wouldn't for Jack Johnson, so I had to stealth.

    Perhaps she was referring to the short-lived supergroup from 1986 called GTR, with Steve Howe and Steve Hackett.

    I doubt it.


    But seriously, I was in section 12, stage left, about 12 rows back and I thought the sound was pretty bad. Sounds cleaner on my recording, but still kind of muddy. Tim was hard to hear.

    It was almost like I was picking some dissonance from the voice sounds of people in audience clashing with sound from the stage. Can't wait to hear the recording, glad you got to set up with no trouble.

    Well of course. Dave said something silly and nonsensical, I'm guessing. Impossible to know

    That is odd, I was right behind the soundboard and the sound was perfect, as it should be. I could even understand Dave when he was speaking. Also, Dave's son was at the sound board most of the night with a football, and then left after black and blue bird.

    Show was really great I thought. Definitely surprised me. I was in Sec 34 and the crowd around us was really great the whole time. Everyone was standing silently and singing.

    The set couldve been a touch better but it was riddled with classics. Really enjoyed Say Bye. Tim was tearing it up on LIOG too.
