Excellent show. Liked that the Warehouse members got to go in early to get their GA standing floor "seats". We ended up about 10 people back from the stage, great view. But my 13 year old daughter could not stand the smoke and heat and we moved further back about halfway through.

First show in 7 years. They have definitely turned it up a notch since then. Squirm was a solid opener. DDTW, 41, IBYU, and Jimi Thing were highlights in the middle, although Spaceman after Jimi kept the crowd from blowing the roof off the place. That was probably the only disappointment of the night, and a slight one at that. Last Stop was a perfect way to end it, especially after hearing about the SPAC disappointment. Dave had no problem hitting the high notes.

Well, went in with some expectations and came out with my expectations blown away. Noticed Carter was tight as usual but nothing crazy. So Damn Lucky I thought was performed superbly. You & Me as an encore is horrible but if you play Last Stop after it how could i care?
Great Show see ya in a week MSG N2!!!

My 21st show, Great Show and loved how they let Warehouse go in an hour early( Great view of the band:was about 8 rows to left near Boyd). The opening band was god aweful but well worth the wait. The bands eneregy was great and seemed to really be enjoying themselves. Couple of first for me. Got to hear STJL and I'll back you up for first time. Last stop was amazing and Dave of course hit every single not. Met some great people in the pit. Amazing night. See you 2012 :)

Great show! The crowd sucked. People need to learn their limits with alcohol intake. It was great, after 23 shows, to finally hear Last Stop!!

Show seemed like it was going to start out pretty average, but I was very happy with how it progressed. Dave really seemed to be feeding off the energy of the crowd! A handful of firsts for me at this show (at least for bull band) including STJL, WWYS, and IBYU! Last stop again, very impressive. Unfortunately You & Me was in the encore, but hey, it happens...

Started off good then slowed down. Picked up again and finished with last stop! A great time as usual

Felt way more "jammy" than my last few Dave shows... longer endings on the earlier songs on the set list... brand new "Motherf***er, Shake Your A**" jam at the end of Jimi THing that I had never heard before stood out.
Shake Me Like a Monkey sounded so much better than last summer.

Really good show - loved Lying In THe Hands Of God (Jeff IS GOD) and the Jimi Thing jam. Also loved DDTW of course and Grey Street! This was my 65thish show. Brought my parents (and sister) to the show for the first time! They enjoyed it immensely. Didnt think the crowd was too good though.

this was a great show! it definitely topped buffalo from tuesday. there was great energy from the start w/ squirm and you might die trying. it was a nice surprise to see song that jane likes and what would you say! wwys and jimi were on fire w/ sam kinninger. Grey Street and watchtower were a great end to the set. probably the best watchtower i have seen. you and me in the encore was a weak choice for me but last stop more than made up for it. see you in 2012

My 22nd show and probably one of worse out of all of them. An average cookie cutter show. Really short jams. A lot of repeats from the first two nights of the tour and this show didn't even come close to those. Highlights for me were Song that Jane Likes and Last Stop. Thanks God they played those two song. Other then that I was dissapointed.

I preferably do not like Squirm as an opener..and to hear it for the 3rd straight time in a row just pulled me down a little because i always love when dave opens with a bang. but i will add it was the best Squirm i have ever heard. you might die trying after that was amazing with his scat outro just screaming to everyone in the TU. from there just got better with dont drink, so damn lucky, what would you say, song that jane likes and jimi thing. but the highlight of the night and the fan favorite of the year, The Last Stop was played and it blew me away. since he teased it at SPAC in june i had wanted to hear it and let me tell you it was worth the wait. Ended the night perfectly

Was squished and surrounded by college age douche bags and couldn't get away from them because it was too packed. The security at the gate were jerks too. Not my best DMB show to be sure but still glad I went. Probably wouldn't rush to another Albany show anytime soon. Not the greatest venue or city. On the thruway home it was only us DMB fans and nobody was particularly friendly. Just weak/poor vibes all around. Surprising.

So Damn Lucky, Last Stop!!! Crowd was into this one big time - Stefan even tweeted as much! Our seats through Warehouse left a little to be desired since the acoustics were not great being up so high, but we were there!

My 50th full band DMB show and it took me that long, but I finally got a full band I'll back you up! Plus this year's ONLY Song that Jane likes, it's like they played it just for me. The show overall was a bit above average, no complaints from this fan. Decent set, good crowd, great energy from the band. Thanks for doing a Fall tour before your break, DMB!

Good show. Good sound. Band appeared to be having a good time... Dave stated he was in a weird mood. Some people in the crowd have to realize they cannot sing and should take it down a notch. Nobody is paying to come listen to you sing drunk and off-key.
