just returned from 2 nights with Furthur. the shows were terrific. i am not one that attends the shows as a critic. i am so grateful the guys are out making the music. this lineup is so energized.
i am a warren haynes fan, but really like john's fit in the band. what a trip it must be for john to be playing with bobby and phil.
i love joe and jay's energy on drums and percussion, the keys of jeff and appreciate the 2 ladies doing the backing vocals.
i heard most of my favorites the last 2 nights and enjoyed hanging in line with all the deadheads both days. it was probably a split of those inline vying for a balcony seat and those that were hoping for a position on the rail. seemed most of us 50+ were hoping for the spots upstairs, 20 years ago we'd have wanted the rails.
i did not like the roped off sections of the balcony , reserved for whoever. one section was completely empty..so what was that about? the music was outstanding, i found myself smiling ear to ear for 2 nights. i look forward to the winter tour. i will make chicago shows and waiting to see when the boys will make LA .
