i recorded the show last night. sounds great. i haven't posted it yet, not sure when i can get to it. would love to share it. let me know how you would like to get it.

warning: if you don't like what i have to say, ignore it

i thought this show was subpar at absolute best, the night before in hershey being even worse (for weir). this format is not the problem. i actually love bob weir, and i love whatever endeavor he wants to fuck around with, especially if it's him solo acoustic. only thing: HE NEEDS TO PRACTICE. a few songs sound great but the rest is garbage. he opens the sets strong but then falls apart. TMNS and minglewood was cool, what was that little thing in the middle of TMNS, anyone know? he busts out esau only to really be one of the biggest embarrassments of the night. he consistently played the wrong chords during the shadowboxing the apocylpse line, totally botched the bridge, and couldn't remember the lyrics, after telling us he got it just right after all this time. artificial flowers was a great surprise. the WRS was an awesome choice but man, if you can't play that prelude, what's the fuckin' point?

2nd set was better but still lots of holes and mistakes. phil and furthur make bob sounds 1 zillion times better. this stuff just makes me miss furthur, big time. although, with furthur, we don't get things like "easy to slip". in all, it's worth seeing at least once for novelty but now after a 3rd attempt, i don't foresee myself spending money to go see that stuff again. i said that last time too, LOL.


bob, please practice this stuff if you want to charge enormous amounts of money and try playing venues furthur was selling out.

I want to thank Bob for doing the shows in pa and will be at most any he would do again.

There was mistakes made but that happens,most songs were good and i really liked the acoustic version of Big bad blues.
I thought it was cool that bob could find a few laughs with the statement about his demonstration of the beat pedal he was using. He said as he was trying to take off his flip flops that it was not a fashion statement. and i thought maybe he was making a video of how not to take your flip flops off it seemed as though it took like 3 minutes to get them off.

I think if you went to the shows a bob fan you got a good run of shows and if bob is not your favorite band member then you had reason to be critical of some of the mistakes.

One last note on the two shows i made it to is, If you know bob then you already know and come to expect some mistakes,if your expecting perfection maybe you should stay at home and listen to perfect studio recordings.

as we used to say "some of these people would cheer and say greatest show ever if Jerry farted into the mic. "

i honestly believe jerry could walk onto the stage and fart into the microphone and some poeple would start spinning and cheering and talk about how awesome the show was...
