A friend who had camera access was able to get us some media passes that got us the ability to go through the fence where we could watch from the side of the stage at the 2010 show. While we didn’t watch from that vantage point too much, we def used the little private bathroom that was in that area every 30 mins or so….haha

First show, 17 years ago. Example 1 > Walletsworth > N2F is sick.
I’ve listened to this untzy Walletsworth probably hundreds of times.

Yup. Def could have stretched the album out and done without triple wide and cut the cable to end but still cool

Surprised I hadn’t posted this one on the -bort before today, and it’s a day late, but this was a really great night!! Seeing Dweezil onstage playing Fir-> Muffin Man with UM was surreal. Some truly great jams in this one as well!!

20 years ago today….one of the biggest feelings of ‘what could’ve been’ I’ve ever felt. This one started so strong and the band was super fired up by Anchor Drops coming out, but the weather put it to rest real quick. 
July 3, 2004 Umphrey’s McGee — Henry Maier Festival Park — Milwaukee, WI, USA
“Summerfest”
One Set: Push the Pig[1], In The Kitchen, JaJunk, Uncommon, Utopian Fir[2]
Footnotes:
[1] with Plunger intro
[2] unfinished; with Sweet Child o’ Mine (Guns N’ Roses) tease
**Show Notes:**Piggly Wiggly Music Stage
the show was cut early due to lightning
with Anchor Drops tease after Utopian Fir
They definitely made up for it with that 2005 show the following year, but this one started off fiery enough where it had a chance to be in the “best show/year of Summerfest” chatter.

Have fluffed this show many times. Keller and Bayliss jamming into Trenchtown as the rest of UM takes the stage is a vibe.

Yeah, there’s legit not a single low spot in this entire show, IMHO. Robot World is an all timer. I miss OG Padgett’s so much.

The first 2 songs really set the whole vibe. And as you said, that HBB is one for the ages. One of the few shows that I will listen to without my adhd wanting to skip around.
