DMB in DC

We went to see Dave Matthews last night at Nationals Park. 97 degrees. It was insanely hot and we sweated out most of the beer we drank.

Zac Brown opened up, and they were actually quite good and managed to get the crowd into the spirit of the show. Though we thought it was crazy that he wore a wool hat throughout his performance. Dang. Very patriotic music.

DMB was...okay. They played a lot of their newer stuff which was unrecognizable to us. The crowd got into it toward the end of our time at the concert, when they played Two Step.

This is review of their New York show, but it is pretty accurate. The solo music jaunts seemed indulgent at times, and they went on far, far too long. Steve was right on--drop some of that and play more of what the fans came for.

Here was the set list...we missed Ants Marching but oh well. And oh yeah, how can I forgot about the pot smokers behnd us. All concert long. So nice.
