I understand that things can go stale, but I think many DMB fans rely on shock factor and variety way too much. And part of that is because of the bands identity crisis. They are a popular rock band that mixes up setlists, but not as much as jam bands. They mix it up just enough that fans get a glimpse at what they COULD BE, but never claimed to be. While it changes tour-to-tour, they always fall into patterns. They find openers/closers/segues that they play the hell out of. It's just crazy that some people take it personally, and are waiting for dmb to reach the level of potential that THEY (the fan) deemed possible. |

All in all, I really like Jimi a Thing and I really like the 2015 tour

Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
This tour is the most plays Typical has gotten since the Summer '97 tour.

My one show this year (Pine Knob) was pretty underwhelming with bad weather...but WWYS with John Popper might be the coolest individual song I've ever seen live.

Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
Can we will the band into giving us official word on the album..im thinking twitter trends, bombard all their social media outlets, planes flying messages. Anything.

Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
Halloween has been played more times than Rapunzel so far this tour.

here's a question - is camden n2 2013 the worst performance of JTR of all time? |
Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
What are you talking about? That performance was sick

Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
Dave's voice is always a risk, but I wish they would just finish the 10 remaining concerts instead of taking almost a whole month off.

Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
This tour has been fantastic. Great songs are being played a lot. The Lovely Ladies add a little something to every song they guest on
|
Re: Random dmb thoughts that don't need its own thread
Halloween, Rapunzel, JTR, Grey Street, GGT, Last Stop, etc. etc. Is there any song that isn't a shell of its former self?

So Right Two Step Crash into Me Satellite The Stone The Dreaming Tree Pig Typical Situation The Best of What's Around Lover Lay Down Drive In Drive Out Granny Big Eyed Fish Bartender The Space Between Grace Is Gone You Never Know and more... The list of songs that are NOT a shell of their former selves is greater than the list of the songs that are. |

To balance it out, the songs that I think are a shell of their former selves: Don't Drink the Water Grey Street Jimi Thing Halloween Sugar Will Good Good Time Busted Stuff |

Certainly wish Grey Street was fuller. I don't even count the more recent GGT, as that is so lacking it seems to not be a real attempt. I certainly prefer the 2004 Sugar Will over the 2010 version. Other than those off the top of my head, can't think of others. I'm certainly not in the "everything is played too fast these days" camp. I'm even OK with current Jimi. |
