Couple days late on the bump, 5 years ago! Those 5 years have gone by quick…
This has to be one of the best shows of the 2014-2016 era (which, admittedly, may not be saying much). This show was really really fun though. Theey moved it indoors to this strange shed of a venue due to inclement weather at the last minute, and there was a huge line to get in. We ended up walking in about 5 mins before they opened with the 30-min Front Porch segment. This setlist was straight out of 03-04 with a lot of segues, unpredictable song selection, and a lot of covers and teases. But it still delivered some great jams in 2x2, Dump City, Linear and FF. Fantastic ending to this show too, with Roundabout for Chris Squire followed by the FP fake > Thin Air w/ Rainbow Country. Not sure it’s a top 10 show for me but still a great one.
