The show was great, but the majority of the songs were played last year. Hopefully they spice it up tonight.

Wouldn't have guessed (or picked) that set list, but they nailed it. Heavy emphasis on the early Dead work. I think Estimated is the only song they played that that came after 1973.

Definitely enjoyed Let It Grow in the first set. Bertha and Eyes were my second set highlights.

that was some of the best live music I've ever seen
great job by those guys injecting some life into those songs
I hope they had fun doing it because I sure had fun dancing to it

the joy is a great place to see a show too
very laid back with no hassling and even had video screens
weird crowd though, I guess I'm just old but it wasn't a deadhead crowd at all
on the other hand that's good because the music is making new fans and hopefully they'll keep the scene alive

All except for the three-stall bathroom situation on the 1st level.

The Joy rocks.

Unfortunately, the show wasn't near as good as the first night; still a good time though.

My ears are still ringing. The trick for the bathroom was to go upstairs.

Agreed. they bring it. Only complaint was a fricking bum somehow got a ticket and was stinking it up all around me. I tried to run him off but didn't want to get too forceful.

Yeh ole Stinky Coat was a complete a-hole. I saw him snort what I think was heroin in the 2nd set. Winning!!!

The crowd smelled pretty bad in general Saturday. It was also much more crowded than Friday.

The weird thing Heady was that it was less crowded the closer you got to the stage for both nights.

N2S2 was just an odd song selection. Still SMH at Row Jimmy.

Overall, I rank the sets: N1S2, N1S1, N2S1, N2S2.
