It's off to a very nice start. Love streaming these shows. It's better than watching the news! I hope somebody offers a stream for Peach Fest.
No offense...glad it was free so I could shut it off after a few songs...a few very good players...Seals is awesome,but this was the worst...guess I’m really hard up for some good music and thought this might work...ugh..
No offense dadof but thought the show and performances was very enjoyable.

no offense taken & glad you enjoyed it...we all have our tastes...i turned it off just before end of first set-maybe it improved...
Man, saw these guys in 2017 and thought it was the best show of the year for me. All the artists are incredible...Krasno is the king....singer was fantastic...seals killed it on the B3...tight funky songs..it was a fun night not to be missed...would go see any time
Been listening to the archive webcast. John K is playing instead of krasno. The show I saw was not so dead heavy and showcased the singer much more. Definitely liked the Charlotte show over this. Much different. Still a good show but very different. Can't remember singer's name but she was a blast.
I thought it was really good for the most part and I only watched the first set. I'll likely watch Set 2 tonight. It was Scott Metzger from JRAD in for Krasno - JK is a regular member of this lineup. I really like Metzger's playing - he had some great solos throughout the first set. Leave My Blues Alone started a little rocky but peaked with Metzger leading a huge jam that elevated that tune to heights it doesn't often reach for me. The singer, Alfred Gerald, was impressive, but I can take or leave the vocals - I'm there for the jams and the set delivered for me. Nice moments in Ruben and Cherise, some nice bluesy moments in It Hurts Me Too, and Oteil as is generally the case seeming to have a great time.
Is Oteil playing anything from his new album during these shows?
Would love to hear some of those tunes stretch out with some of these musicians he's got

Thought this had a much more Dead-like vibe without John Mayer and Bob W's off key singing. Loved the soul tunes. Will listen all night to Melvin Seals, not many get those utterly gorgeous tones out of the B3. Brought back great memories of JGB and the Real Dead.
Home sick. Made my night! Thanks for posting!
