Great venue, Fantastic show. New songs were great and will only get better. What on earth was the band thinking going from Nancies to Stay!?!?!? That almost ruined it for me....

amazing show. some repeats from december.
big eyed fish -> bartender was unreal. dave climaxed with his vocals right before the jam and osmething happened ot his guitar... there was actually a lot of techincal probelms but it didnt deter the boys from jamming hard. break free was great - the best new song so far

Amazing show. The bayou jam session and the break free debut were definite highlights. Bartender was also excellent and sister was beautiful! DMB 4 LIFE!

Great GREAT show. Big Eye'd Fish and Dreaming Tree Rocked. I love the new song "the idea of you" Dave belted it out and I got goosebumps. First time I've enjoyed Tripping Billies as much as I did. Show started off quiet but was rocking by the end. Great Encore. Crowd loved it.

We could not believe that LeRoi had on the Sunnyvale 420 Hockey jersey. Good to see the Trailer Park Boys making an impact State side. All in all a great show. The new song, Break Free, was outstanding. Although there were a few sitters in 202 area, most of the crowd was great. Lots of burning going on. The sound was a bit off and an obvious technical difficulty with Dave's guitar during Bartender that genuinely angered him but he more then made up for it during Dreaming Tree, Billies and Stay. Sister was cool to hear for the first time too. He loves Canada and we love DMB!!!!!!!!!

Pretty goood show. Grey Street was a sick opener. Too much was one of the best I've heard yet. Some good songs that got ruined by the sound problems but all in all it was a great crowd and a great Weed engulfed amphitheatre. Dreaming Tree = Blew My Mind.

Sound wasn't as good as at the ACC in December '05, but the outside venue made up for it.

I drove up to toronto from virginia with a couple friends of mine and it was an amazing show. setlist was classic. glad i got to hear pig and it was definitely nice to hear big eyed fish into bartender. idea of you was excellent as was the debut of break free. dreaming tree was awesome to hear. the encore was great too. the band overcame the couple guitar problems and provided a great, energetic show. see everybody in cville.

A great night all around. Got to meet some ants before the show. Happy to finally hear BEF and Dreaming Tree. Dave's guitar screwed up for Bartender and ASTB but I left happy. Loved the new songs, Break Free was great for the first time it was played. Was hoping Nancies would segue into Warehouse but to no avail. Nice to see a show again at Molson.

Fantastic Show. Only my third but it was by far the best. It was extremely intense and very emotional as well. Big Eyed Fish was really well done, it's a very moving song, alot of the people ahead were singing along and smiling, I don't think they realized what a painful song it is, I also never realized the Proundest monkey reference in there. Sister was also extremely moving. Very moving stuff. The set was also extremely intense, it was good to finally hear the little So much to say/anyone seen the bridge/too much trio that they do so often. Carter was definetely overplaying on every song and it was awesome! He was on fire. I don't understand how he can blow me away every single time I listen to him. Just continues to be the best. I can't wait till NEW YORK CITY!

So I thought I was sitting in 103 Row E, which would translate to 5th row. Thankfully the Molson Amphitheatre's set up, 103 Row E was completely adjacent to the FRONT ROW just to the left of Boyd!!!
Being so close allowed me to call all the songs before they started which was fun. They had great energy and played an amazing set. They had some technical problems in the heart of the set which maybe hindered how great they were playing. The majority of those wouldn't have noticed, but Dave's guitar was in and out during Bartender and Anyone Seen The Bridge. They recovered just fine.
Saw another Live Debut for Break Free. It was as if they've played that song for years, the end jam was amazing. Maybe the best version of Dreaming Tree that I've heard, truly moving.
But the highlight for me (aside from being in the front row) was being with my sister, and seeing her cry during Dave's solo for Sister. Worth every penny of her birthday present. Too bad she couldn't get Carter's drumstick.

Let's start off by saying the opening act was fantastic.
I was extreme right stage floors, so the view was shit. I had higer up centres which I regret not using and selling the floors but anyways lets not get off track.
Great show, very disappointed with bartender. The best way to describe it was just think of a record yes vinyl and imagine it playing, then someone bumps it, thats what BT sounded like. Aside from that ACC in Dec was Way Better, and so was 2004 at the Molson Amp.

Great. So happy he played Dreaming Tree. Everyday had a little #36 thrown in which was nice, Big Eyed Fish and Louisiana Bayou were great.

Amazing Show! Great set list and fantastic energy in the crowd. The entire Dave Matthews Band sounded awesome!! First time I heard the song Sister performed, and I was blown away. Really, really great time.

Pretty strong show. Nothing really stands out for me, just really solid effort all the way around. Nice set. The audio on the lawn sucked hard till about LB and they fixed it. Also, one of the tvs for the lawn was broken. The show picked up during LB and never slowed down. The debut of the new song was a nice highlight.

Is it me or did Dave look more fit. Good overall 8th show, but I can't say it beats Winter '05 at ACC. Solid effort even with the technical troubles, thanks for showing us Canucks much love Dave!

2nd show. Pretty amazing. Didn't play most of the songs I wanted to hear, but still blew me away regardless. 6 repeats from December's show and yet they still sounded as fresh and as energetic as ever. There were some AV problems, but it didn't really hurt them too much. The only dissapointment was Hunger (but they still played it really really well) and Roi during What Would You Say, maybe when I hear the tapes it'll be different, but at the time it definitely wasn't funky enough to match the energy that the band built in the song. But Big Eyed Fish >> Bartender was spectacular, I'm happy to see Everyday, and Break Free's ending was awesome. Oh and Dreaming Tree anyone? I think I lost myself in the music in that song...just completely emmersed myself into that beautiful epic. I was really wanting jimi thing, two step and the stone...like really wanting them...but I can definitely wait until next time.
All in all...wow...just wow. Thanks DMB.

incredible....as if it would be anything but! as i was composing myself and wiping away tears after dreaming tree i said to my friend 'this is one of two dmb songs that make me cry'. after hearing sister, i turned back to her and said 'check that, there are now three dmb songs that make me cry'. wow! that was just delightful. i luved the venue...my first time in toronto. i was in the 10th row, center and someone off to the side, within the first 5 rows had a sign that read "carter is god".....my sentiments exactly....i always laugh when dave says 'thank you'...um it is i who should be thanking u!
