I believe this tour has the band hopping from city to city too much, and it is starting to show. Only 5 multiple night residencies and no 3 night stands..apart from Dicks. I think this has made the band a little uncomfortable and we are beginning to see short rotations in the song material. Still some good shows, but many average shows in my opinion.

Totally agree....too much travel from town to town too fast....but that of course is speculative on our part....what isn't speculative is the shrinking song selection. A tour that started so mesmerizingly original has worn a groove in the earth just like the wagons which came before.

But every tour has ups and downs, it's the nature of the jam-band game. It's funny as I hear myself criticize them for repeats when most bands play the same damn set every single night of tour. Yet that's where we are, nonetheless.

Waiting All Night needs to be shelved for awhile at this point or it's going to be vilified like Possum two years ago.

I'm a little frustrated, considering the sheer depth of their catalog, that there are any songs, other than Disease and some other stalwarts, which would have been played more than three times this early in the tour. Let's shake it up boys!

Still, I daresay I sound like a spoiled child.
