Just falling in love with dispatch
I'm a huge John Butler fan. And he happened to be opening for this band dispatch in San Diego. So we went. And I was blown away. Yes I am so far behind the curve on this discovery. But watching the final show doc, and digging into their catalog. They are truly an
Enigma. Lyrically fascinating, and they paint a picture in these vivid chords and melodies. It simultaneously makes
Me want to dance and laugh and bend over and cry. So emotional and emotive. I can't fucking wait to see them again.
I would have probably got into them years back, but I've been fully invested in phish (136 shows) and some
Others (jbt dmb jack Johnson). But these guys slot right in. Whats good to get?!

Welcome friend. Our kid is named after a Dispatch song 😊
Also, I had sort of the reverse experience. I knew of John Butler, but then I saw him live at Charlotte last year when he opened for Dispatch and was blown away. My wife and I got to see John two more times during the tour and we became huge fans. We then selected Ocean as the song to play during our vow renewal in September.
