Favorite show that you attended

I think 16 RR N1 is probably it for me, but there are so many honorable mentions. 3/6/14 Seattle, 2/3/12 Minneapolis, 3/4/17 Missoula, 2/6/13 Fargo, and 3/11/17 Oakland are the ones that are in the realm

What 's your favorite show that you attended?

Also I ate a hit at midnight and am currently frying so that’s why I’m posting at 5am. Sup

Actually another GOAT that I forgot about is 3/12/14 in Ashland, OR where there must have been 50 total people in attendance and the power went out in the second set. Kabump > Phils might be the greatest segment I have ever personally seen. Although the red rocks speak up > water > fir gives it a run for its money

3/29/19 Ryman. That one’s going to be really tough to top. IDM is still my favorite jam I’ve seen live too (never thought it would come out of that song!)

Definitely 3/6/14 Seattle. The fact that they haven’t played the Neptune since convinced me that UM burned the place to the ground that night

1/27/11 for sure.

Same. I was on another planet for the 2 setter with Tom Sawyer in S2. Just kept dropping hits in the blistering heat for that major payout when nightfall hit.

2/19/12 or 3/10/16 would be my answer for the thread.

12/31/08 & 12/31/09 just being young on NYE with all my friends who came in from around the country. Getting silly in Chicago pre and post show. Doesn’t get any better.

10/28/17 - Prince cover show with my wife. She’s meh on um, but loves Prince. I’ve never seen her have more fun at a concert then this night.

Centennial Terrace, July 7, 2010. One setter, co-bill with moe. They started off pretty jazzy with some noteworthy improv. It was hotAF out when they took the stage but the smaller crowd gave their set a more intimate feel.
