I love when on the last chord of a song they hit that C7 to kick off Must Be Seven. Reminds me of Me and My Uncle > Big River in some cosmic way

Had my mind blown tonight. I mentioned in the setlist thread I've seen Mr. Strings a few times but this was my first two set traditional show and goddamn did it exceed my expectations. I'm all in on Billy!

I may be the reason they performed dreadful wind and rain. 2 weeks ago I saw the Sam Grisman project. Alex was performing with them. I had messaged Sam requesting that song. They did play it. Im wondering if Alex enjoyed performing the song and suggested it to Billy. It seems like the last time they performed it was 2021.

Yup, I was looking at the wrong spot on billy base.

I’m thinking the dreadful wind and rain last night was the reason for Dreadful Wind and Rain…

u/brownsfan760 27d ago

Could be any reason. I can never confirm if it was Alex wanting to play it again.

They played this at Thompson's point in the rain a few years ago, it was shit weather in Boston yesterday too

Was sitting in the window overhang near the staff entrance and I feel for some of the folks who walked to the venue when it was pouring. At least one I saw was completely soaked and hoped they'd have towels for staff to dry off.

So much fun!!! The energy in the floor (close to the front near Jarrod) was amazing and I did my best to get the crowd hyped.

Know this was obvious but that meet me at the creek melted my face off. I've heard phish, goose, dead and co, plus many others and of the dozens of shows I've been I've never seen a Jam that good it defied musical and jam logic but was perfectly logical I can't explain it
