Well, just got in from the GW show. It was my first time at that venue, and I have to say, what a party! Best tailgate I have seen. The show was great, unfortunately Jimmy ran out of time and couldnt do a second encore. Everyone thought he was going to, even Charleston jumped back down into the crowd until the house lights came back up. Oh well, it was still a good show. I didnt know if I would like the DMB cover of Tripping Billies, but it sounded amazing live. It's much different than what it may sound on RM. Anyways, whole show = 8 out of 10, IMO.

The show sounded great. I was out on my back deck listening to it on my sirius radio. The band and Jimmy seemed to be in a great mood and the crowd seemed really into it

awesome show..... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jake Shimakumburo is an incredible musician, and really added to the sound. I didn't think A Pirate Looks at Forty could be done any better... but the ukelele melded in perfectly and made it better.
Jimmy and Mac looked like PROUD PAPAS watching Jake play.

my seat was indeed "limited view," as the ticket said, but what I was missing was the lighthouse, and not much else... thought I couldn't see Jimmy, Mac and Jake very well during APLAF,,,
I was tucked in right beside the speaker bank, stage right. It was fantastic!!!!!
Jake is AMAZING!!!

I saw Jake at the Nissan show and I agree with you. He rocked the house.

Great photos. Glad you all had a blast.
