For ease of entry, I'd split my raw setlits notes between the two bands for this show, but then friggin' SimpleNote wiped out my detailed notes for the Lesh set (sync error, doh!) I guess there wasn't a good enough cell connection there to save each edit? Consequently, I have no time info to post for Phil's part of the day, and only very limited info about the singers and sit-ins, sorry! Guess I need to go back to work on energizing my photographic memory! Quick thoughts: * it was a very mellow scene, all day long * Ross treated both _Hard Rain_ and _Throwin' Stones_ as rave ups, starting out relatively mellow, but then cranking up the energy and tension with each go 'round until he was positively screaming by the end. Made for a fun time, that's for sure! * The _Box of Rain_ » _Wharf Rat_ » _Box of Rain_ sandwich was very unusual, and quite nicely done. * Given the many omissions from the planned setlist to the actual one, I wonder whether they really thought they would be playing all those tunes, or just tossing ideas around when it was writ. {{tag>music Phil_Lesh Terrapin_Family_Band Greg_Loiacono_Band the_Back_Porch Ross_James Alex_Koford Grahame_Lesh Brian_Rashap Todd_Roper Greg_Loiacono Brian_Rashap Todd_Roper Nicki_Bluhm Jason_Crosby}} [[2017-07-02|Back to the previous event!]] ☸ [[:#section2017|Up to the 2017 yearbox!]] ☸ [[:2017#July_events|Up to the 2017 event list!]] ☸ [[2017-07-06|On to the next event!]]
