Got the first Carter stick of the night and my first ever! In the front row and he handed it to me right before starting to throw them into the crowd!

I was really ecstatic after Minarets and Pig opened up the show. Pretty meh run throughout the rest, though. I was hoping for my girlfriend (new to DMB, her second show) would get to experience Ants, 41, or Crush, but no dice this year.
The merch table I was at was kind of a disaster. People were forming a line off to the side, then one of the workers said "don't form a line that way, we'll be here all night! Just come stand in front of the table!" Luckily I was able to stay about where I was in the line and got a poster. Also, said merch table guy was just about the most sluggish person I've ever experienced in any customer service related field. I was the third or fourth person he served and I stood there for about ten minutes.
The sound was pretty good, although I felt that Carter's bass drum was a tad heavy in the mix. Drowned out the sax/trumpet at certain points. The sightlines in the venue were fantastic.
Overall, the crowd was very decent. No one in my section was standing, unfortunately. But the crowd got pretty loud at several points during the show and it looked like a virtual sellout. Hopefully we'll see them come back in 2018!!

Real good show. One of the best I've been to, I think. Went with Jeff Sv. Great Watchtower as final encore song. After it Jeff said jokingly that I should go on the floor and get a stick. And so I went. And I did get a drumstick! Nice. Finally. So sweet after I dropped one in Charlottesville in 2011 or no I think it was 2010.

Show started with great promise but, other than Dave, the band seemed to lack energy and was just going through the motions at a mid-week one-off venue. Too bad, because the crowd seemed excited to have DMB back in Charleston after missing out several years in a row.

3rd show of this tour and I feel like they are sticking to the same group of songs this year. Nothing really stood out for me in particular in this show. Dave had a lot of energy but the rest of the band seemed to be pretty mediocre that night. Definitely not the worst show of theirs I\'ve seen but far from the best.

Great show. Amazed to hear \"Pig\", \"Everyday\", & \"All Along The Watchtower\". This was only my second show since LeRoi\'s passing. While they have added some great musicians, there will always be a hole.
Hoping they don\'t wait so long to come back to Charleston!

This was a capacity crowd. The seats were filled to the rafters. By mid-show there was a ton of energy in the crowd which the band seemed to feed off of. The set list was interesting. The band played the many of the new songs that are played a lot this tour, mixed with a lot of \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"radio\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" favorites that make casual fans happy. Also interesting is that the last 1/3 of the show could have been from 2001 as all the songs were at least 15 years old or older. All in all I had fun. My wife and I stayed completely sober (a first at a DMB show!) because she is 9 months pregnant. Actually the show was on her scheduled due date. Since there was no baby yet, we decided to go! Glad we did.

Band sounded great and Dave had endless energy. Not enough \\\\\\\"rare\\\\\\\" songs to make this show stand out. Minarets > Pig > Why I Am to start was great. Grey Street closer sounded super tight.
