Re: *** Official Florida 2016 ***

I do the Florida run and it was even better this year with no rain.I agree with ( Danwack) pretty much although I think Tampa received the best Fl. show this run,including crowd participation.I still strongly disagree with anybody and I know a lot of DMB fans who feel the same that it's ridiculous to judge a 2 hour plus DMB show on an opening song or even a bad encore.3 songs do not kill a show especially if you hear a rare song like (Say Goodbye) that never was played in Tampa.I have been into DMB since '99 however I still love hearing (You and Me) with my Wife as it is (our) Dave song...I'm happy people love (Cornbread) and they DO at the shows it's a fun song and that is what it's about FUN...

    well said. I had a fucking blast at all three shows, although I think tampa was my favorite overall.

    wpb last stop was amazing though. so was that end run N2.

    In my haste, I realized I meant to say that the recording is on Dreaming Tree not Ants...

    Post DMB Blues hitting me hard especially with the hiatus. Would love some D&T dates next year. So much fun at all my shows this year. Won't be the last time I hit up WPB. Might have to add Tampa next time.

    I just moved down to the Tampa area from New England so I'm interested to hear about the venue/shows down here. Any tips about the venue, tailgating, parking or anything else you can think of will be helpful. I'm excited to see some shows next year in a new place. I've only ever seen them at Mansfield, Fenway, the Boston Garden and Hartford so the Tampa area is all new to me. I guess I'd be willing to travel to West Palm as well if it is worth it.

    Welcome to the sunshine state! Tampa is always an awesome midweek show I would definitely recommend hitting that stop since it sounds like your close to there. WPB is totally worth the drive from tampa, always a great setlist and the crowd is fantastic as well! Seats in west palm are great and the lawn works if you're cool with getting drenched! WPB always has awesome pre and post show festivities going on.

    Highly recommend making the trip to WPB as well. Great atmosphere and nice sets both times I made the trip.
