And yeah, I'm as sick as anyone is of Here On Out, but this is not the standard Dave solo version--live strings @ the Hollywood Bowl! And Jeff Coffin on clarinet! I love the audience recording of this, but I'm sure the official release will sound so much better.. Very excited for this release!

I agree. With DMB having released so many 2018 shows recently, I think all of us want the band to release shows from different years/eras before another 2018 show, but this show is at least quite unique.
Members of the orchestra guest on FIVE songs. Mark Batson guests on TWO songs (the only time he has EVER guested with DMB).
One Sweet World, #41, Jimi Thing, Crash, Ants, WWYS, Everyday, DDTW and Watchtower are played for the fans who want to hear the classics.
And it has great cover art.
In 5 years, when we've got 4 or 5 releases from every year in the band's history (so having 4 2018 releases isn't so odd), I think people will appreciate this album more than right now.
