It was my very first DMB concert ever. The concert rocked. I almost died when Dave played my favorite song Trippin' Billies. The other song that I especially enjoyed was Ants Marching. The concert was all good.


Dan Williams

It was the greatest concert ever!! All the people in the lawn section lawn section had just one huge party and did what ever they wanted to do.


Heath Wilson

Incredible. This is the first time to see Dave perform well in front of of a large crowd. His best performances up till this point have been in with small crowds under 500. Pre 1995. I was very impressed with the variety of songs although they did leave out Satelite. Great Show anyway. Average age at show was 16.5 so the beer lines were small. Another good point I though I would point out.

This was my 3rd David show of the summer and by far, the best. The band had a vibe this night that they have not shown in some time. The show the night before at Milwaukee felt like they were trying to just get through the setlist. But on Friday, they found their groove and hung on all night. They played off the crowd all night, from the first note of Seek Up to the last of Ants Marching. Dave has family here in Chicago so I think he turns it up a notch. Super effort by all 5 boys.


Aaron Wasserman

Great Show, one of the best I've seen in the last two years I though it was great

It was my first DMB concert, but it was by far the best concert I've ever been to. It started off pretty mellow with Seek Up and I was getting ancy because I wanted to hear the band jam. I think they purposely took a while to build up tension before they jammed. It was incredible!! It was amazing to hear all of the variations of songs or their lyrics, like with Minarets. They also played a two song encore with a song I'd never heard of before. It was cool though when Dave started singing what sounded like "This Land is your land, this land is my land..." during the new song. Ants Marching was the final song and it rocked! Boyd went crazy during his solo and left everyone thirsting for more. If anyone knows when DMB is coming back to the Chicago area or to the University of Illinois, please let me know. Thanks for an unbelievable concert DAVE!
