If not for Say Goodbye and Christmas Song I would have given one star. Supremely disappointed considering some of the songs being played at other stops on this tour.

Felt like it was very Buddy heavy, very light on Tim. Good set list overall, but very little flow

1st time at TD- great venue, great crowd, great show. Though a bit heavy on the loves songs (Crash, WAYG, TSB), so happy to get Bartender, Xmas song, watchtower and say goodbye. So glad they scrapped Jimi for Bayou. Also, Buddy has been turned way up and took solos for the first several songs, and Tim seems to be turned way down. Overall it was a great night!!

Fun show. Dave seemed to be having a great time all night. Setlist was very mixed, spanning all their albums which kept things interesting. After seeing them over the summer, I thought the energy and sound was better this time around. The run from Bartender to Warehouse was the highlight. The crowd seemed into it all night and the venue looked pretty full. A few lulls towards the end of the show but the encore was solid. Sure the setlist could have been better at times but it was a nice bonus to see them again this year.

It's always fun to see something different, and DMB inside is...different. The crowd was great. The setlist spanned the career, more or less. Sledgehammer appearance was nice, and the "Stairway" bit in Watchtower was a fun change to a great, but oft-played song.
First show in Boston, proper, and first show with just myself and my brother - it's one for the memory books.

So this was the first show I’ve seen without Boyd. The gap it the music is glaring, he was part of the core sound and the creation of this music. That being said it was still good, just not the same band...listening to warehouse was bizarre I was looking around wondering if I was the only one...i wasnt. Buddy was fine, great would be an overreach... all in all I had a great time but as I said earlier really not “ the Dave Matthews Band” ....something different

This show was pretty good. I was a little disappointed that I didn't get to hear some of the rarer songs that were liberated this tour (i.e. Kill the King, Sweet Emotion), but when the set got good, it got good. Highlights were Granny and Bartender, as well as Come On Come On, Say Goodbye>>Warehouse and Christmas Song during the encore. My friend was also ecstatic to hear Space Between.

There were a lot of repeats from the manchester NH show. That was disappointing. Encore was amazing though.

Good times, fun seats (side view) being so close to the action / Dave dancing. Really would give it 3.5 if possible. Grey Street was powerful, Say Goodbye was awesome to see (been a while), Warehouse had a sweet outro, Buddy absolutely rocked Bayou, encore was amazing and made up for a lot of the duplicates I have seen in my last few shows. Overall, these guys still fucking rock and I stand by my theory that they are / will be better off long-term without Boyd.

Sound was bad from my seat, others mentioned the same thing. Song selection was 5/10 for my tastes. Christmas Song came back, that was nice!

Very disappointing show. There were 13 repeats from the Manchester, NH show- the band had to know that there would be alot of people seeing both shows. Also, the worst part of the night was the sound. There were many moments where Jeff was going crazy and I could hear NO SAXOPHONE!
