For an opener Bela and the Flecktones got the crowd into the mood they had to be in when Dave and the Band came out. Dave personnaly introed Bela and the Flecktones. Despite the screaming women, Dave and the Band opened with #41, and jammed for at least ten minutes. 'For the Beauty of Wynona' was a great song performed even better. And then a few songs later Bela came back out and jammed for a little bit leading into Lie in our Graves. That and Seek Up with Bela Fleck kicked ass, it was different to hear a banjo being played during those songs. For a closer So Much to Say led into Too Much. The encore all though not too long was great, Bela Fleck came out of basically nowhere and started playing almost like he didnt know the song he played great anyway, and it was amazing how he watched Dave play the guitar to figure out what he should play. Before they all went off stage again Boyd and Bela had a little dual. Boyd would play, and before he could even finish Bela was already playing the same thing. I personally thought this concert was great despite the fact that they played only one new song. The screaming people behind me kinda took away some of the fun but oh well.
