I know it's not a big deal and most people really don't care other than to joke about it, but for some reason this stuff has really, really just turned me off on Hangout. Almost to the point of I would sell my tickets if I had them still, which I know is irrational if you love the beach and like festivals. There are much bigger issues to worry about. But it is blind rage, mind-numbing to me for some reason.

Still can't believe how terrible DMB was in 2013. Only time seeing them and I am sure that was one of their worst performances. So I am only going on that.

It doesn't really bother me to that extent, but it's so easy to make fun of. I still love Hangout but I'm going to keep making fun of shit like that as long as they keep it up. It's kind of like Eddie Vedder to me. I fucking love Eddie Vedder, but his vocals are so easy to make fun of. And god dammit if I'm not going to sing along to Pearl Jam only using vowels for the rest of my life.
I wouldn't mind DMB but it seems clear across this board that they bombed out in 2013. What exactly was bad about it? Was it a sound issue? Was Dave just a flaccid drunk/stoned mess?

They were about a half hour late and Dave said that he'd had a frog in his throat all day so he really wasn't sounding too good. I only got to stay for a few songs since I was still in high school at the time and had a final the next morning lol. Also it was 2012, not 2013.

Terrible sound, Dave took what seemed like a 10 minute break after every song. Seemed as if everyone that weekend showed up for DMB. It was crazy packed compared to the whole weekend.

Right! I was at HOF in 13 but I think Joe said it too. Fuck, now we gota start all over from the beginning.
I just assume that's just one DMB would like to forget. They wouldn't have come as far as they have if they just sucked every show.
If Hangout was the only time you've seen Dave Matthews Band you are missing out on a hell of a great experience in my opinion. He definitely didn't feel 100 that night.
Koa...the very last band on the list has a DMB kind of feel. They have also done some stuff with Moon Taxi. I saw Dave 3 nights in a row on his Caravan tour in Chicago. It was insane. Loved every song. A lot of people don't like the "bro" crowd he draws, but he's great to see when a crowd of his fans are chanting along to every song and dancing their asses off. I get why he is not well liked and I don't care. I just love music. Not much that I hate.

Seen DMB 4 times, the last time in 2012 at Hangout & I think it was his 2nd show of his new tour. They were awful, not together, no energy, and long breaks after each song with little to no talking between songs. That being said, the 1st 3 times were ducking great, but the HOF was also the only time I seen them at a festival, other shows they would play 3hrs. + & you couldn't get enough. 2012 Bad - All the rest Fantastic !!!
Playing outside in the wind, heat, etc., can be a challenge. I'm sure some musicians and bands are better suited for it than others. Allison Krauss, Mavis Staples, and Steve Winwood all gave it everything they had but, all struggled. The thunderstorms the first year wiped out some of the performances. Hangout has been lucky that weather has been good as it has. It would seem bands with smaller numbers, beat or music box, younger, probably have less risk to put on a decent show. The 2016 lineup is probably more flexible and adaptable to the beach than someone like DMB or Fleetwood Mac who probably prefer an indoor venue.

Oops. It was 2012.
I remember walking back west after grabbing some food. We left the grounds right before the show ended. The bands buses were already passing us on the walk. Couldn't wait to get outta there.
I will say it sucks not seeing them at a non festival show to compare.
