I hope it's NOT the Anthem...
2. No seating - what little they have goes in the first 2 minutes of going on sale. (I have heard that they sometimes have floor seating, but I have NEVER seen it...)
3. They have absolute inedible slop at an atrocious price that they call food. (Normally this would not bother me, but by such a HUUUUGE margin this was the WORST venue food I have ever had anywhere, anytime.)
The only reason I keep going there is because that's where the bands I want to see are. Sight and sound is fine - But I just hate standing for 2-3 hours. I can deal with everything else...

New keyboard player seriously takes things up about 5 notches. That along with alot of baritone guitar have really started to define their current sound and I love it.
Seeing everyone, of all ages grooving and singing along melted my heart. Probably gonna be the last time I catch them for free but I'm always willing to pay and buy all the merch I can.
Tempted to drive to lexington Saturday...

I hate to admit this and show my age but I didn't mind it being a chair show, starting and ending early, either.
Anyway he's worth catching if you can, likely to be in a smaller venue.

Almost four hours of music for less than $30 and with $5 PBR tall boys and free parking. Walk to the rail any time. Top flight musicians all in tune and in synch. Vocals for Bobby, Jerry and Phil perfect. This is the way to see Grateful Dead music.
LFD is a Virginia based band that appears around the mid-Atlantic and is a project of musicians from other bands. I like the way they hand some male vocal songs to the female, and unlike the Donna disaster, this young woman had talent, soul and presence. John K is the big league with both talent and soul (unlike that Wonderland thing). do not miss this band, especially with John. He made the show sublime but they really pull it off well without him.
This is way above your local bar cover band. You have DSO which is museum quality perfect of what it was. You have JRAD which is top talent of what that music should sound like today with time's progression. This is why you cannot compare those two (with Mcjeff's authority, so there). LFD lands in between. They manage to keep the soul of the GD but iron out the wrinkles (example the bad harmonies).

Gabe Dixon Band was opening act. He's the keyboard player for TTB. The band consisted of keys, bass, and drum. Not bad, but I prefer bands with a guitar player. Best part of his set was when the TTB horns joined in.
Next up was Los Lobos. They are solid pros and it showed. Their cover of Papa Was a Rolling Stone into Oye Coma Va was killer and then Susan joined them for What's Going On.
TTB was solid as usual. My highlights were the last two songs prior to the encore. Susan's vocals on Midnight in Harlem had me melting into a puddle (okay, maybe a pond, but not a lake) and Bound For Glory simply rocked. Went with the same two friends as the February TTB shows at the Warner and we all agreed it was a more soulful show than that one.
Normally I cackle in delight multipole times at TTB shows, but last night was a one cackle show. Still feel TTB is one of the best touring bands out there, but Billy Strings is my current favorite.
