Absolutley AMAZING! I've never heard #41 live and thats the only song i wanted 2 hear, and i got a treat Bela Fleck and Futureman tore it up and i will never be able to listen 2 it the same again, as well as Jeff Coffin on Sax.

My 3rd show in 5 days as I took in the West Palm shows. Great to hear Dreamgirl for the first time all summer and also was glad ot hear #41. What a great rendition that included Bela Fleck. 21 total songs played and the show went for 3 hours. One of the best performaces I have been to.

Shamefully, I will say it was my first DMB show. However, it will far, far from my last one. I think the setlist was amazing!! I was very surprised to hear "dream girl" and I had a feeling the Bella Fleck and the Flecktones would come out from researching recent shows and such. They were great. Carter amazed me!!! When I saw Dave dance, I had to ask my friend to pinch me. I swear half the time I was there I was in disbelief. I met some very nice people and love wear we were in the theatre. It wasn't front row, but it was a great vantage point fromn the lawn.

This was by far the best DMB show I've been to. The set list was great - plenty of older songs, good new songs and awesome jams. Too many details to list. #41 was beyond AWESOME. I gotta get a recording of this show.

*great* setlist--nice mix of old and new material... jam on #41 had a few weak spots but overall was good... Bela Fleck added a nice touch. great energy... encore was amazing!! dave's solo "sister" was good--glad he got up there by himself for one song!

Unbelieveable show! 5th show and never heard Trippin Billies Live. The Flecktones were awesome, DMB was awesome, you could just tell the whole band was really feeling it. From Boyd jumping all over the stage, to Dave dancin' around, to Carter giving the whole "dang that was sick!" look during Bela Fleck's solo, wow! Thanks Dave!

Good energy in the crowd and a good setlist. LONG show, especially compared to WPB. #41 with bela fleck and the flecktones made the entire evening. 3 DMB shows in 5 days gives me a record to try to beat for next year. Or maybe later on this tour....

the almost 30 mins of # 41 was amazing!

User: greydove
Review:
It was an amazing show. We missed the opening act completely (traffic bites) and got there about 15 minutes before Dave came on. I was a bit disappointed in the set list because he played a lot of the same songs from Charlotte. BUT -- it was all made up for when everyone came out on stage. That #41 jam had to have been over twenty minutes long, and the entire crowd was rocking out and dancing like crazy. It was amazing. Did anyone catch him singing Louie Louie? ;)

ATL ROCKED!!!!!!! Bela and Futureman are the bomb. Jeff Coffin was off the hook, and the band's energy was awesome. The show started a little slow, but Hunger really got things going and Bridge was totally amazing. Definitely the best I have ever experienced. The encore was just okay, and the crowd didn’t seem to be as enthusiastic as in previous years. Maybe they were too young. All in all, a great show, the guests were incredible.

My only DMB show so far and a night that I will never forget. My girlfriend and I had the time of our lives and were so entertained by the band. Its remarkable how many of our favorites Dave played, as if he knew we would be there. I can't wait for the next show!

5th concert I went to and the last one of this season (that I know of). I am sure it was my favorite one. Heard a lot of songs I wanted them to play but wasn't really expecting them to (say goodbye, dreamgirl, 41...) So much seemed to be going wrong in the morning and early afternoon I was afraid I would have to say it wasn't worth, but it def. was!!! I am totally in love with the band and with the other ants, who will always offer me a shelter, raingear (trash bag stylish) and brownies!! Thanks for the great time!

Unbelieveable! I was blown away. I have been to 7 or 8 shows. The majority of them at this venue. When I left there, I really thought it was all left on the stage. #41 played forever. I realized that after the Encore that even if he had come back on stage, I did not have the energy for it. And I had to use the bathroom...

User: JSUhorn
Review:
WOW!!! What a concert! Jeff Coffin, Bela Fleck, tonight's concert easily topped last year with Trey!!!! Two of my closest friends became engaged during #41!!! A HUGE THANK YOU to all the Stage security that gave us the info we needed to help pull off the perfect engagement! Thank you also to the Band and Special guest's Bela Fleck and the Flecktones! Tonight will be a night that will not soon be forgoten! The show was perfect! Thanks in advance to all the Tapers!

Amazing being right up front. My wife kept screaming she loved Dave, so I was thankful for security to keep her in line... ;-)
As great as it is to be up close, I find the mix is usually a better back towards the mixing board - I gave it a 5 anyway based on the intensity of being up close. Great vibe!

Saw Dave at west palm both nights then Atlanta and then Nashville. This was by far the best of the bunch. Was in section 101 best seats, best show. Awesome jams. Love "The idea of you" Wasn't a big fan of the new stuff, but after this short tour I have a new appreciation of it. Dave was more chatty than usual as well!!

Awesome show, was on tour and made the trip on our day off. Thanks to Ellyn for the ticket. Made some awesome friends there in Troy and Lisa. Bela Fleck, Jeff Coffin and some of the Flecktones guested on #41. Like 26 minutes long. Mellow Ants Marching. Great new songs!!!

David and I took Lainey and sat on the front row, center. Dave called Lainey "little lady" and sang to her. Carter gave her a drumstick and Stefan gave her his water bottle. It was a very memorable show and well worth the money we paid.

I loved this show. My boy Charles came down from VA and we just chilled. It was awesome. My first time hearing DMB with Rashawn Ross and I was very impressed. That boy can blow!! #41 with the Flecktones was amazing, and I have to admit that I LOVE it when Dave finishes with Tripping Billies. Such a great crowd pleaser to end on.

28 minute long #41. sounded exactly like the 41 from like 10 years ago when bela fleck played with dave. break free was also amazing second best song of the night. the outro was crazy. im not sure if this show was better then last year but it was close.

The best DMB show that I've seen yet. He played a good mix of his old stuff and some really cool sounding unreleased songs. Can't wait for the albums to come out. He played an acoustic version of "Sister" and made some comments about them switching hearts at birth. Overall, a great, great show.

Amazing! Simply amazing! Front row!! WOW!! Best show I have seen and this all comes from my friend telling me he thought Bela and the Flecktones would play with them waaay back in June at the Charlotte Show. Best decision ever!!! 26 min #41, Jeff Coffin on 10 songs, the Flecktones (sans Victor) coming out for Ants and #41, encore break at 10:55, show ending at 11:25, tooo much energy in the crowd and from the band. A must have and I feel sorry for those who missed it. I have seen 26 shows anf NONE of them even compairs to this- can;t imagine any future shows compairing either- but I'll keep going to make sure. :)

I thought the set list was much better than last year, mostly because I am more partial to the "older" Dave. I thought the guest were incredible but really only got to shine when handed a solo, mostly the guy playing the box chair. The only down side in my opinion was style used for the snippet of "Everyday" at the end of the 15 min. jam.

Wow, wow, wow! What an amazing treat last night was. I'm about 2 hours away from tailgating at Starwood and I'm nowhere near ready to move on from last night's show in Atlanta. From Jeff being out there for practically 3/4th of the concert to Bela and Futureman absoluetly tearing it up on #41 w/ the boys last night will not be soon forgotten. Had a great time w/ the Ants in the parking lot tailgating (corey, jared, jamey, stefan, mike ... sorry if i left anyone out). Definately gonna have to do that again next year! Too many highlights to name them all, so I'll just say the whole flippin' concert was amazing, thanks to Dave & the boys yet again!
