Great, great show. Setlist was excellent. Couldn't hear much of the horns though the whole night which was a shame. Saw Say Goodbye (1st in 11 shows), and the LIOG reprise near the end of the main set was an amazing touch. Stay jam was awesome, same for 41... nice to see a bunch of older tunes rather than the new-heavy sets mostly seen in Europe.
Also managed to snag free pit upgrades (some guys who won theirs didn't want them as they were happy with their seats - if you're on here THANK YOU!!!)

Had its ups and downs. Great run to close the night and great opener with LIOG. The slow stretch of bismark through satellite took the steam out a bit.

23rd show for me was probably the best. Great run to start the show. LIOG opener was awesome - Boyd had a great solo, so you knew he was going to be into it the rest of the night. Very cool reprise much later in the show. Great energy from band and crowd. Kinda dipped during Satellite/Say Goodbye; but rebounded well with a great #41. Only disappointment was PNP/Rapunzel closer - they\'ve closed w/ that quite a few times in Florida the last few years. Looking forward to WPB!!

Great show (my 3rd of year after Camden) ... LIOG opener was obviously unexpected and set quite the tone for the show that featured so many \"old\" songs. Black and Blue was also unexpected and was refreshing to hear again this Summer.
The band sounded great, though Dave struggled with lyrics, specifcally during Crush, Cornbread, and Rapunzel ... although thats just a characteristuc of his style and its always fun to see him give himself a bit of crap and looking back at Carter when he did.

4.5 - great show from the pit. No Dave speak, the boys seemed a little tired.

Another epic show for Tampa.1st time Say Goodbye,tour debut of Black and Blue Bird,love that song.Sound was amazing,the crowd was the most into it I have ever seen at Tampa,at times I could not hear Dave sing the crowd was singing so loud!! Incredible...I don\\\\\\\'t understand slow down in the Setlist when Timmy does a 6 min.solo during Proudest Monkey,1st time Say Goodbye...it must be 100 degrees on stage our boys need a breather...

This venue is in a weird location, not a fan of the neighborhood but the crowd of this show was into it from the beginning! One of the loudest DMB crowds I have heard. The set was solid and the LIOG opener with Reprise was great, Carter was crazy on Say Goodbye. Fun Show.

This was my first DMB concert. I had a great time and I thought the song selection and performance were very good.

LIOG opener came completely out of nowhere and was such a treat. Run of Say Bye>41>Billies was one of the best three song runs I\'ve seen. Even Corn Bread didn\'t bother me tonight. Band got a little sloppy at times and almost turned Rapunzel into a trainwreck, but this show was damn good regardless. Two straight phenomenal shows at this venue!

Good setlist but worst mixing I have ever heard. We were centered fairly well on stage and the mixing was way way way off. Other than that it was a very solid show.

Solid show! Black and Blue Bird - First of Tour (I'm a fan of it...) Opening with LIOG really sets a great tone for the show, and not really a slow moment all night! Can't wait for West Palm! THanks for a fantastic round 1!

They always put on a great a show and this show was certainly great. However, seemed a little slower than shows I've been to.

set list was strong - a lot of Crash numbers! The band performances were great - Boyd was on his game right from the start with Lie in Our Graves. The band took an extended encore break, and came back off their equilibrium with an uneven Granny and nearly a trainwreck Rapunzel. It sounded as if Dave forgot where he was in the song just before the final verse.
