I'll be trying to get tickets for the Cambridge show.  The Sanders Theater is a beautiful venue.  But it's small and tickets are going to be hard to get.

Dang wish I could hit Carolina Theater that would be sick.
Classic Center is alright, saw STS9 there a while ago. I remember security being super strict.
DC synagogue on Vday would be a sweet date.

I'll be trying as well, but not too optimistic.  It is an incredible venue built for lectures prior to amplification being a thing.  So, it's pretty damn perfect acoustically.  I've seen the Flecktones, Grisman Quintet, and Joshua Redman there, all of which were great.

And no, I do not have any in on getting tix there.  Birdman already asked...

agreed, great venue
I saw Redman there too - must have been around 94 or 95.
That will be a great venue for Trey. Working that w/e - trying to pull a switch

I'm pretty sure I saw Redman in 95, maybe 96.  Perhaps we were at the same show... :beers:

Trey's site had the onsale time for Charlotte wrong, which may have helped my crew grab tickets as we noticed the venue indicated the onsale began an hour earlier. So I have a provisional seat for that show in case my existing conflict shifts. wooooo

Super jealous. I watched that entire set from last night and enjoyed the hell out of it.

There actually was some pretty sick loop/jams. Wolfmans and Come together/Rise got a tad trippy! And of course, the Trey story-telling Time pulls the heart strings everytime.

Such a great night.

Beautiful venue, great acoustics/sound, and quiet & respectful crowd while Trey was playing.

I don't know what stories are out there, but the Fishman wheatgrass enema story tonight was top notch.  :-D

I'm sure the other tapes will be great too, but all the tapers were in the last row of the balcony.  As far as I know, Ted was the only taper who brought a mic cable long enough to clamp to the balcony rail and run the cable back to the taper's seats.

Trey worked "Peyton Hooten" into the Carini lyrics on the second night.  So basically that was a joke with an 18 year wait for the punchline!

Yeah, logged onto FB on Saturday and someone had "invited" me to the stream. It was a great up close angle with perfect sound.  If it happens again I will try and share the link here but not sure if thats do-able.  For the first night there was a Mixlr stream but it was not nearly as good quality.

Enjoyed Trey in Charlotte last night. Quite a different type of atmosphere compared to how we're used to consuming these songs. (Key takeaway, on that note: Phish fans apparently are incapable of sitting still for 80 minutes. My god.)

Quote
Trey Anastasio - 2018/02/17 - Knight Theatre - Charlotte, NC

Theme From The Bottom, Anything But Me, Sweet Dreams Melinda, Sample In A Jar, Everything's Right, Architect, Twist, Mountains In The Mist, Lifeboy, Summer Of '89, The Inlaw Josie Wales, Limb By Limb, Cavern, Rise/Come Together, Mexican Cousin, Buffalo Bill, Waste, Stealing Time From The Faulty Plan -> Wading In The Velvet Sea, Carini > Back On The Train

Encore: Brian & Robert, Show Of Life, Backwards Down The Number Line

Lifeboy was an easy highlight for me. Nice mini loop jams in Everything's Right, Twist and Stealing Time. Dextrous work on BOTT. Josie Wales was a treat. Favorite story was about Trey and Page pushing on till the day during a hotel fire in Cincy in 2003.

Some songs, of course, translate better to this format than others. Some are actually, probably, better suited to this as opposed to the full-band format. Some are poignant, some are just for kicks. Very glad I was able to attend this show.

I caught Sunday's show in Athens and I couldn't agree more with VDB. The amount of people getting up out of their seats with such frequency was insane. I've seen my share of shows in this kind of setting / atmosphere and it was by far the worst I've experienced. People were getting up constantly. For one couple, I stopped counting at 5 times. Maybe it's just the grumpy old man in me but good lord, it was beyond annoying.

With that said, the show itself was great. Highlights were DFB, Fee, Ghost, Sand and obviously Slave. Slave was gorgeous. Avoiding a # Line was a plus as well  :wink:  When this show was announced I really had no plans to go mainly because I've seen a couple of his Acoustic / Electric shows and didn't think this show would vary much from a setlist perspective. I never would have expected to see a Ghost or a Sand. I'm glad I changed my mind the morning tix went on sale.


Set: Heavy Things, Farmhouse, Dog Faced Boy, More, NICU, Miss You, Fee, Ghost, Waste, Water in the Sky, Sand, Brian & Robert, Bouncing Around The Room, Theme From The Bottom, Strange Design, Lizards, Blaze On, Slave To The Traffic Light

Encore: Inlaw Josie Wales, The Wedge, Character Zero

I caught Sunday's show in Athens and I couldn't agree more with VDB. The amount of people getting up out of their seats with such frequency was insane. I've seen my share of shows in this kind of setting / atmosphere and it was by far the worst I've experienced. People were getting up constantly. For one couple, I stopped counting at 5 times. Maybe it's just the grumpy old man in me but good lord, it was beyond annoying.

With that said, the show itself was great. Highlights were DFB, Fee, Ghost, Sand and obviously Slave. Slave was gorgeous. Avoiding a # Line was a plus as well  :wink:  When this show was announced I really had no plans to go mainly because I've seen a couple of his Acoustic / Electric shows and didn't think this show would vary much from a setlist perspective. I never would have expected to see a Ghost or a Sand. I'm glad I changed my mind the morning tix went on sale.


Set: Heavy Things, Farmhouse, Dog Faced Boy, More, NICU, Miss You, Fee, Ghost, Waste, Water in the Sky, Sand, Brian & Robert, Bouncing Around The Room, Theme From The Bottom, Strange Design, Lizards, Blaze On, Slave To The Traffic Light

Encore: Inlaw Josie Wales, The Wedge, Character Zero

I was reading on a phish group there was some wook girl in the upper balcony that was like screaming and talking through the entire show. Security kicked her out during Lizards and there was a standing ovation lol. I would have been pretty annoyed at that. The times I saw him at the symphony people were respectful and even dressed up, even the wooks!

Thanks for the link PG, gotta catch up on the stories from second half of tour.

What's funny is I was in the lower balcony and we had a wook right in front of me who basically did the same thing. He talked to his girlfriend throughout the entire show and he was so loud. Wasn't even attempting to whisper. Towards the latter part of the set, he started to yell and scream incoherently. He was saying that there is always an opportunity to be a dick and this was his time. Just standing up, yelling this. I told him if that was his goal, then mission accomplished. He then turned around, looked at me and the couple sitting next to me to fuck off and gave us the double bird salute. We chuckled. He then kept yapping to his girlfriend. Trey comes out for the encore and he starts playing Josie Wales, he continues to stand twirling around and again, gives everyone the double bird salute again. We told him he makes a lousy window and to sit the fuck down. After telling him this a couple of more times, he finally sits his ass down. And of course, continues to talk to his girlfriend. It was nuts.

Jesus.

Either a person is naturally that big a dickbag, or they managed to get themselves that fucked up for a solo acoustic guitar show. Neither is a good look.

It was definitely both in this case.

Those experiences sound shitty.  The crowd in Cambridge could not have been more silent or more respectful.  As the room is virtually perfect acoustically, any noise made by the crowd would have been heard by everybody in the room, including Trey.  That alone may have kept any potential disturbers silent.

yeah it was pin drop quiet at the DC show as well. Perhaps the fact that it was a synagogue helped in this case. Everyone was on their best behavior.
