I'm home in CT for 4 days..ish and I can't do much due to a lack of a car. I am at the misery of friends/family that can give me a ride. Lucky for me, I had friends going to Boston last night.

Dirty Water (cover, first time played live)
Stay (Wasting Time)

-AWESOME set. There were no songs played off of Everyday or Stand Up which are easily the band’s worst albums
-”Stay” being the closer was disappointing, but not that bad
-”Dirty Water” was a nice ode to the Boston home base even though Dave needed help with the lyrics
-Seven of the new songs were played
-I heard five songs I had never heard live before
-This was my 20th dmb show

SONG HIGHLIGHTS
-Willie Nelson sang some verses of Gravedigger and he was TERRIBLE. He didn’t even sing, he just spoke the lyrics.
-#41 melted my face off. Jeff Coffin was on fire. He was “dueling” with Carter and just completely killed it.
-They’ve added a horns outro to Rhyme & Reason which I enjoyed
-I’m tired of Crush, but Tim, Jeff, and Carter have great solos during it
-Two Step: OH. MY. GOD. This was INCREDIBLE. Highlight of my night/dmb concert history. Carter is God.
-Carter had a five-minute or so solo during Two Step which blew my mind. It was insane.
-After the insane Two Step Closer & short break for the encore, the crowd was still rocking & went nuts when Dirty Water started
I can’t wait to download the show and listen again. It was so good. I may skip to Two Step just to relive that awesomeness.

Boston people - Here is the video of Dirty Water: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MM0J00Sp8cM
-
Carter’s drum solo (majority of it anyway). This video DOES NOT do it justice because sound quality is crap, but you get the general idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYiaKGm1N0k

Coffin’s Solo on #41 followed by Tim’s solo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lH50weLiKc
