Re: ^^^Official Utah (USANA Amphitheatre) 2019^^^
Well, after a great night I got home from the show and couldn't sleep so decided to come into work and get some things taken care of before I head to the gorge on Thursday. Waiting for some things to sync up and thought I'd leave my thoughts on the Utah show....
Smiles are contagious. As are joy and passion. That band wasn't 'working' tonight. They were obviously, but, not. It's very evident that they've found a new enthusiasm and fire since Boyd left and Buddy came on. I miss the violin like most do, but hot damn it was fun to watch them enjoy themselves like that. Dave was dancing, smiling, laughing, and having himself a ball the entire time.
The setlist was fine. Never expected anything amazing for this venue/Utah. But I have to say - that was one of my favorite shows I've seen out of almost 70. So Right kicked ass, Bayou did too. Other standouts were GIG, DDTW, and Warehouse (the new intro is haunting and beautiful). I didn't think it was possible to be more excited for The Gorge weekend, but they somehow managed to do it for me. Also, the poster is sweet and I'm glad I was able to snag one for the bargain price of $60 (weren't they like $35 a few years ago?!).
Hope everyone else in attendance had a great time like I did!
