DMB rocked the major league stadium that night, performing in center field in front of close to 35,000 fans.
Highlights of the show include Pay For What You Get and the rarity Recently > Water into Wine jam which had not been played live in over ten years. Other songs of note include a superb performance of Crush and covers of Neil Young’s Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black) and Sly and the Family Stone’s Thank You (Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Again)!
