Not a huge fan of die trying but this version was incredible. Don't fear the reaper was out of left field and a great surprise. Cortez was amazing.

The Two Step with the glowsticks all going up in the air at once was amazing (you can find it on youtube.) The whole show was incredible, but that encore of Some Devil, Don\'t Fear the Reaper, and Two Step is the best encore i\'ve ever seen them do.

Big Eyed Fish into Bartender? A Lillywhite Sessions dream come true for me! Plus a surprise by #40, Cortez and Reaper were all excellent, not to mention my forever-favorites of SMTS>ASTB?>Too Much and #41! Killer night :)

Best night of DMB in my fanship. This show smokes! Cortez with Warren Haynes was the highlight. Trading licks with Tim Reynolds for 20 minutes! Lots of great energy. Good flow to the set. Ended on a bang with Stay with the members from Warren Haynes band guesting. Loved this evening.

This show is worth 5 stars from the band, however there were assholes in the crowd throwing glow sticks at Dave the whole time and it was really annoying. At one point Dave told the crowd "If you keep doin' that I'm gonna have to come down there and kick your ass" semi-jokingly / semi-seriously. Dave turned around and started walking towards / talking with Carter then came back to the mic and said "Carter said he would come down help me...and he WOULD kick your ass!"
Crowd aside...the band rocked! The only thing I would have wished for is if Dave would have sang Stay by himself...Alecia and Nigel didn't seem to know what they were doing up there and detracted from the song some I thought (would have been fine if they had more practice or knew the song).
Cortez was a real treat to hear live...the solo went on for so long my wife (not a huge DMB fan) had to go sit down because she was tired of standing the whole time. SMTS>ASTB>TM was solid...I like how the newer version of ASTB has reverted to more like it was in the early-mid 2000s.

Wild show! The glow sticks for Two Step were stellar! Met a miserable girl from Beaverton, OR, that wouldn't stop singing Some Devil louder than Dave. If you meet here in the coming years, you'll know.. I highly recommend steering clear of her!

22 shows and this is in my top 5. Cortez was sick, great Two Step, The Maker, Write a Song, Dive In!!! Not to mention the total shock of Reaper. Plus just a totally committed crowd, made this perhaps my favorite Dave experience. Certainly made my trip from Virginia worth it.

One sweet world was one of my favorites to hear, especially Write a Song, which is quite a rarity. The Spaceman outro of Tim's guitar lick into Cornbread was great too, in previous tours they didn't do it and it's a great set to play together. #40 was alsoa treat. Cortez the killer was a speachless performance and I have no other words to say other than best rock song played by the best band. The highlight of the night was hearing the background vocals on Stay, which is how the song should always be performed. It brought back the "lovely ladies" feel to the song. Overall a great show!

May be the number one show of all time for me. Great set and Cortez with Warren and Tim trading solos. Kind of a dream come true. The Big Eyed Fish in Bartender intro was incredible. They could play this every night and I would never get tired of it.

Tim and Warren dueling, Dave looking at the sky and Ground shaking percussion from Carter!! WOW!! (oh yeah, #27, the maker, and #41 played before that not to shabby either!!

Simply one of the best shows I have ever seen. Cortez the Killer with WH was unbelievable. #27, The Maker, #40 tease, and the first three songs were all amazing. Don't Fear the Reaper was one of the most exciting DMB moments of my life. Great cover! Wonderful show!

Reaper. Damn...watched this show from the front of the lawn and the band was just on fire. #27 gave me chills as did #41 and #40...I guess the number songs did it for me. Loved this show felt very diverse. Glowsticks suck....and glow.

I LOVED the opening run, and I LOVED the ending run. There were just a few songs in the middle that I wasnt feeling (Spaceman, Cornbread, Im lookin at you). I was amazed at how the energy feels so different at Gorge shows. Every moment is such a memory. This was the most annoying crowd of the weekend though.
