DMB @ The Gorge: Update


Wow. Just, wow.
What an incredible trip. There were 17 of us who made the trip down from Calgary and a few others who met us at the campsite to bring us up to 20.
It was three of the best Dave Matthews Band shows EVER. They played a lot of stuff, around three hours each night, and they ended up playing some rare tunes.
Pig, Grace is Gone, Bartender and Crush to name a few.
They also played some fantastic new songs like Sister, Shotgun, The Idea of You, Break Free and Can't Stop. Those beauties had us all psyched for a new album.
To make the weekend even more special, O.A.R. opened for Dave and they were sensational. I'd love to see them as a main act since they only played about eight songs each night to warm up the crowd for DMB.
Camping was a blast as usual but I think I am getting old. I was going to bed pretty early and couldn't keep up with the youngin's who were partying til 6am.
I really hope we get to go again next year too.
I met some new faces and got to hang with some people I hadn't seen in a while. I can't say enough about how awesome everyone was.
Here are some pics of the foolish, foolish time we had.
Peace y'all!
