Nice man. Mid West shows are always ragers. I can't even wait to see what they pull out this tour. The Fall tour was insane because they got rid of setlists most nights and just played from songlists(large list of songs to choose from, but no set order) It really opened things up and the shows were just unbelievable. I'll be hitting up these shows:
I should be able to get to all of those. I might have to skip Buffalo because it's the furthest from me and I'll most likely be doing most of these alone. It's also on a Thursday so I need to decide how much time off work I want to use on just a mini tour.

My daughter is at school in Boone, NC. Nobody would trade shifts with her at the resturant she works at so she could go see them tonight. She was bummed until the whole band and their crew came in and sat at her table! Didn't get to hear them play, but got to meet everybody anyways. Said they were super nice (tried to call me so I could say hi and ask them when to expect them at Roo, but I was out without my phone, dammit....)

I'm definatly seeing them in ohio, might check them out in dc too, and maybe a few other places, but for now its just columbus. I didnt catch the fall tour, so its been a while, psyched to see them again.
you should think about that south bend st pattys day show ziggy. st pattys day in the hometown of south bend. irish heaven. should be incredible. plus it is the last show with adrian belew. i think its going to go down as one of the greatest umphreys shows ever.

I just realized that i'll actually be able to drive by then. If there are tickets when i have money, i'll definatly think about checking it out. I'd love to see adrian belew play, just grabbed all his "side" albums, really solid, and have always like king crimson.
The Belew shows should be outstanding. Someone over at the Umphrey's message board posted a link to Belew's blog and he talks about playing with Umphrey's soon. I guess they sent him a bunch of tunes to learn. Seeing as it looks like he'll be well prepared those shows should be smoking. All I get in the Northeast is Brothers Past opening for them. Just once I want to catch a show with Belew or Johsua Redman sitting in. I'm hoping for a Warren Haynes sit in at Mountain Jam 3 though.
well unfortuantly im only going to one show this week. due to work and my saving cash for summer. but its the big one. the last night with belew, on st pattys day, in south bend!! its gonna be huge!! anyone else making it to this show? ive got an xtra ticket if my friend isnt going, ill know tommorow if he is. i only want its cost. 25 bucks. i cant even imagine how badass its going to be!!!

Wish I could go, I'm gonna be at the first show at the canopy club. I'll get down there early about 3 or 4 go to the pub and be ready for some Umphrey's w/ Belew goodness.

Enjoy guys. The mid-west gets all the best UM shows. I was able to confirm a place to stay in NYC so it looks like I'll definitely be hitting the Nokia show. Haven't missed one at the Nokia yet and they have all been outstanding shows so I'm really looking forward to this. Also can't wait to pre-game across the street at Dave & Busters. It's pricey but it's so great to slam beers and play video games before the show.
They are recording these two nights for a future live album that will be released. I'm sure they are gonna rip the roof right off that place. I really wish I didn't live so far away.
Looks like things with Belew got off to a nice start last night.
03/14/07 Canopy Club, Urbana, IL Adrian Belew opened Set I: Got Your Milk (Right Here), All Things Ninja, Much Obliged> Jimmy Stewart> Utopian Fir> Bright Lights, Big City> Utopian Fir, Mullet (Over) Set II: 2x2> Alex's House> Nothing Too Fancy> White Man's Moccasins, I Am the Walrus1, Red2, Ocean Billy Encore: Soul Food I2, Thela Hun Ginjeet1 3
1 Adrian Belew (Guitars, Vocals) 2 Adrian Belew (Guitar) 3 First Time Played (King Crimson)
Show looks real good. It's nice to see that All Things Ninja is back. Debut of a new King Crimson cover too. I can't wait to hear this when it hits the archive. You guys that are catching a show with Belew are so lucky.
ya i had some friends that were there. i got a call about 3 am telling me what an amazing show it was. so pissed i couldnt make it. he bought the soundboards. i will see him for the st pattys day show. so if it isnt on oink by sunday i will sendspace it when i get home. im guessing it will show up on oink today. im hoping anyways. cant wait to hear it!! cant wait for saturday!!! cant wait for gratefulfest!! im wondering if they will cover some dead. nearly everyone does a dead tune or 2 at grateful fest. to my knowledge umph has never done any dead. cant wait !!!!
my friend was especially happy about utopian fir. said it was killer! along with adrian singing i am the walrus. cant believei i didnt make it!!

I love Utopin Fur too. I've only managed to catch one in 14 shows so far though. Umphrey's has played some Dead before. Check out 2/15/05 in San Fran. They play Franklin's Tower with Phil Lesh on bass and vocals. Also, 2/28/06 there is a Friend of the Devil jam during the acoustic Great American. I've heard them tease Tennesse Jed too.

The Franklin's Tower is particularly hot. It's a one set show and I always pop it in just for the Franklin's. I think Jake and Bayliss do a really good job. A lot of "tasteful shredding" if something like that exists. A perfect balance of Umphrey's face melting combined with the Dead's sound.
Well I got the soundboard to the 9/28/06 show because I was there and bought the UM live afterwards. I don't remember where I got the one with Phil Lesh.

The canopy show is up on oink, but i'm waiting to see the other set lists before i download a show. I'm thinking the saint pattys show will be the best, we'll see.
ya thats wht i got too. i figure jumping on a great show so early it will get a decent ratio so its worth it.
also i just found out that they released somemore seats. so i moved on up from the second balcony to main floor center, row m for the st pattys day show. damn i am excited!!!!!!!!!
