    Show was great. The songs were great. Last night was meh and same shit we have seen all year. Something rare should pop up at SPAC. It’s a destination venue and Dave should throw several bones per destination.
    Come on Bruce, expecting some of that to get busted out is just wishful thinking. That’s why i asked you to differentiate things that haven’t been played this tour, vs things on the lib list. What “rare” songs were played at SPAC in 18, or 19?

    Now I’m not saying it shouldn’t be the way you describe, but it hasn’t been that way for many many years, so expecting it in 2021 is just silly.

    So basically solid bodies of the set is all 2021 has going for it and people talking like this an all time great tour.

    I got roasted for mentioning 2019 the other day but that tour had ants, two step, two step-o-ween, rapunzel encores. Last stop bust outs, water into wine, blue water, #40, JTR in rotation. More importantly the power slots (closer, encore closer) actually had strong songs.

    2021 90% of encores ya get DDTW, shake meh, and why I am. I just don't get it...

    I agree but for a destination venue, take the bottom part of most okayed songs. 30-40 songs that gave inky been okayed once or twice. I’d not overall rarity, at least give the folks tour rarity.

    Went to Chicago and DC and happy with my decision to not do SPAC. I’m sure it was awesome in person (all shows are vs. watching from home) but other than what you are and Christmas song (which I’ve seen before) nothing stands out.

    Prime Dalton was like Even Steven though. He did suck in big games though.

    Maybe Jeff Fisher would have been a better analogy lol.

    If they had closed the set with Shake Me and ended the encore with Watchtower it would’ve gone over better

    I’m sure folks who went to a show like DTE would very happily trade going home on Shake Me with that set from tonight as opposed to the show they had with a better closer.

    I know they've been played on other stops, but I consider The Stone and Drive In, Drive Out to be goodies. Very jealous of DIDO in particular. Hoping it sticks around for Denver.

    Christmas Song is also a "goodie" in my book.

    *Expecting* a bunch of crazy rarities at SPAC - or any other "destination venue" at this point - is just setting yourself up for disappointment. Dave has shown again and again that he has no qualms about writing a weak set for SPAC. When he does write a great set - as he did tonight - it's usually all the best songs from the tour together in one set, not a huge list of TDs and LIBs.

    SPAC had zero TDs or liberations in 2016 and people love both those shows.

    I would say the only huge let down would be SUAD, something that I’m guessing hasn’t been played at SPAC in a while, but is back in rotation.

    Expecting things like DT, Busted Stuff, etc is silly! I’m not sure how you can argue otherwise. And again, I’m not saying it’s how it should be, but it’s how it’s been for a LONG time.

    Had a fantastic weekend at SPAC, really happy I made it to these shows. As others have mentioned, really the only downside for me was closing with Shake Me. I think if you switch Shake Me and Warehouse everyone would be feeling way better about tonight. I was at SPAC 2018 and 2019, in my opinion 2021 is better than those weekends. I think 2016 weekend was better than this weekend though. Just my opinion.

    Yea if you’re looking for TDs/LIBs this late into a tour with DMB 4.0, you’re gonna have a bad time.

    You’re better off going to a show closer to the start of the tour because there’s more unknown and one off songs that get played. For later destination venues, Dave just picks the better songs in medium/heavy rotation for the most part with some lesser played songs sprinkled in.

    Again, the setlists are getting more formulaic with every passing year.

    No SUAD was the biggest disappointment for me - especially since it was played Wednesday. SPAC deserved that. Not asking too much.

    I agree...I think that’s a very different ask than some of the stuff Bruce listed though.

    SPAC hasn’t had Sweet Up and Down since 2000. Gorge has never had it. Gorge at least took Covid to keep them from getting it. They played it weds in Milwaukee and then not at spac which is like “ahhhhh close but no cigar.”

    Absolutely loved the show except for Shake Me, main set was right there with SPAC N2 '08 and SPAC N2 '09 for me, haven't seen many shows that fit my preferences as much as tonight. Also if there are any Raab haters like there used to be they have no clue when it comes to vocal technique. Dave is singing incredibly well, so connected with every part of his voice.
