Reviews
Well another opening night has come and gone. What can I say about this very disjointed and occassionally spirited performance but that it was rather disappointing. The Dead were not up to their high standards. The first set was ragged and many of the songs felt forced to the pointed of being contrived. The second set got off to a great start but putting Caution third was not a good call as it sent the audience into a sleep/dream sequence. When Drums turns out to be the highlight something was definitely amiss. I think by the time they hit NYC the band will round out to shape. Warren needs to step up even more and just playing together and maybe standing a bit closer together instead of Phil and Bobby being oceans apart might help everyone hit their cues a little better. Greensboro's finest made life interesting for many and was uncalled for given the amount of cash Dead fans pour into cities the band visits. Talk about rolling out the unwelcome mat - Greensboro won't see me again too soon. I always give the band second chances. I guarantee better shows ahead - I just wish I had not drove so far for rehersal quality music. Help on the way was helpless. Sorry about the bad review guys.

1st and foremost I am an avid fan of this band in any and all forms.Also I was NOT in attendance on Sunday,BUT did give it a healthy listening to over the past few days.I like the reat of us,want this to be an awesome tour!I think we can't get on Michael from Margate to bad.I don't let anyone OUTSIDE our circle criticize this band but We have to admit that WE are ALL getting older.You just can't expect magic from beginning to end anymore.We have to take it when it happens.stay 'till the end and appriciate all they do.I think it is very commendable that they are even going out on the road for us.That being said, go to as many of these that you can, it is what we have left....We ALL know these guys can still "BRING IT".Just not as often. There still is "Nothing like a DEAD show"......:o)
Tommy O, Hamburg,Pa
Sorry, but they were way off, warren kept breaking into Bob's lyrics, and they never seemed to jell. It was great being at a show again but anyone who knows the dead knows this was fun but not a great show. I will say average but that is at best, they should only get better. If you never saw them then u dont know what was missing....

yo f warren! The show was pretty good. could've been better, but who's complainin'? I mean besides these idiots. Nobody is trying to see the Warren Haynes & friends show, but whatcha gonna do?
Willie, Baltimore, MD
Opening night was really enjoyable for me. I went with my lady of choice, and my best friends Papa and his wife whom I only hung out with a few times but any way. we were just chillin,and had a great time, lot seemed to be fresh..and very fun.. good call of getting tics pre show cause I didn't see many floatin around..
I thought the show opened up great, the spirit in the place seemed tense..maybe with anticipation of what would come..as i am sure the band was too, then the lights dimmed, and pure electricity flew thru the air. You could tell that it was time for it to go down. a little doodle'n to get tuned right and right into that long awaited mellow groove.
It was obvious that it was early in the tour and it showed thru the ups and downs of the first set, but it was dealt with pretty good I thought, and made enjoyable, the band seemed to be working together, if someone slacked a bit, someone else was right there to gather up the ear space, and I think the guys in the band felt it was a little edgy too, and that's why they came out for a 23 min jam to open the second set and feel each other out. I did get left wanting more as this show ended and with the option to go to WA show or not, I mean hey it's DEAD TOUR! it was a great call I did, it only got better, and VA was even more so than the later...tell ya what I thought there..
good times good times!!
Peace

Del, Charlotte area
As a veteran of over 40 Grateful Dead Shows, 4 Jerry Shows, multiple Ratdog, Phil & Friends, Other Ones and Dead shows, I can say without a doubt that this was the best thing I have seen since Jerry passed. Here is how the day and show went.
I went to this show with my law school buddy Nate and my step-dad Ray. Because of family obligations on Easter we did not all get together to drive from Charlotte to Greensboro until nearly 3 PM. A quick ride up the interstate, with a side trip to Bojangles for a box of chicken and we were in the lot by about 4:30 PM. The lot scene was a total throwback to the Dead shows of the days past, albeit the overall age of the crowd (as with me personally) had gone up a tad bit. Bottom line, the weather was a beautiful 75 degrees and sunny. It appeared that just about every Deadhead from Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland was there. There was a massive tailgating scene with a nice Shakedown vending area. The show was set to start at 7:30 PM so at about 6:30ish we started making our way into the venue.
The coliseum staff and security were extraordinarily polite and non-intrusive as we entered the venue. We made our way inside and found our seats. It turns out we had seats in the 8th row of the upper deck directly next to the stage on Warren’s side. There was a bank of speakers facing directly at us that was somewhat blocked our view of part of the stage, but what we missed seeing was more than made up for by the clean, loud mix that blasted us in the face from that same set of speakers.
At approximately 7:45 the lights went down and the place went absolutely nuts. For those who have never been to the Greensboro Coliseum it is your typical basketball arena, with one exception – it is huge. The upper deck in particular is probably twice as large as most basketball arenas. It seemed to me that every seat all the way to the top was packed (albeit they did not have seating behind the stage due to the lightning and backdrop. Anyway, as stated the place was totally going nuts as the band made there way to the stage. One of my personal big concerns going into this show was how would Warren Haynes sound as the only guitarist on stage. For those of you that saw the last Dead show or the Phil & Friends lineup known as “The Q,” you may remember that Warren and Jimmy Herring shared lead duties. Herring always played a very clean tone with little effects, while Warren leaned heavily on the slide and all sorts of crazy guitar effects. My concern had to do with whether he would continue to use too much slide and effects. My concerns were put to rest almost right off the bat as the band jumped right into a sweet jam that lasted several minutes. The sound was absolutely crystal clear, loud but not too loud and the mix was perfect. Any instrument I wanted to focus on was right there in the mix. This opening jam sounded very reminiscent of Shakedown street probably more than anything because of the wah wah Shakedown effect that Warrant was using on his guitar. However after a short while Bobby raised his hand to cue the band into a change, Warren switched to a nice clean tone and the band dropped a nice Music Never Stopped on us. The crowd on this and literally every song of the night was singing along in celebration. The Music then had a nice transition jam that dropped nicely into Jack Straw. Warren continued to play it clean, which is just how Jerry would have done it. Interesting the Jerry vocal lines in Jack Straw were handled by Phil, which actually was better than you might think. After coming to a complete stop, we got the first true sign in my opinion that the band had really come to play – a first Set Estimated > He’s Gone. If anyone of you have ever heard Gov’t Mule play the Marley classic “Lively Up Yourself” then you will know that he is the absolute master of the wah wah sound that is so pervasive from the lead guitar in Estimated. Warren absolutely crushed it. Bobby was doing his rock star thing and life was good. Then after a nice long jam we got He’s Gone. This really seemed to hit a note with the crowds, which most were probably thinking the same thing I was – Jerry is gone and nothing is going to bring him back. I would note, one small complaint at this point. Bobby Weir took the lead vocals in He’s Gone and I was not a real fan of that. His vocal phrasings remind of the way Bob Dylan or Willie Nelson might sing it, meaning very odd phrasing. I mean it’s not like Bobby has not heard Jerry sing this song several hundred times, yet he insists on singing it in his oddly stilted manned that quite frankly does not sound right. However, I will grant that Bobby is Bobby and he along with Phil have earned the right to sign whatever Jerry song they damn well please. As mentioned, the crowd was way into this one and then right at the end when the vocal “nothing’s gonna bring him back” jam kicked in, we got our first taste of Warren on vocals. He absolutely crushed that vocal jam. He is so soulful and literally had the crowd in a frenzy. The He’s Gone outro jam was very reminiscent of the other one and for a few minutes I thought the band might hook us up but instead the jam unfolded into Touch of Grey, nothing real special here except it gave the crowd yet another opportunity to sing along. The band next played what I believe is the first post Jerry version of I need a miracle. This one had the crowd singing along again, however, I will state that on this one I was kinda disappointed in Warren. Traditionally, Jerry really ripped the intro to shreds and on this version, the intro kinda fell flat, although it got better as the song went along. The Miracle segued into Truckin’ which closed the set triumphantly. All in all a very solid well played set. Every song was sung by Bobby, so we were all wondering when and if Phil and Warren would get their chance . . . we did not have to wait long.
If the first set the Bobby set, the 2nd set was the Phil and Warren set. The set began with another nice jam that eventually dropped into Shakedown. At this point, Warren took over lead vocal duties for the entire pre-drums sequence. The shakedown was hot with Warren continuing to play that funky wah effect. The end of the Shakedown had an interesting rehearsed jam/vocal sequence that I think I have heard done by Ratdog before. The shakedown then gave way to Watchtower. During Jerry’s lifetime, this song was exclusively sung by Bobby, however, on this night, Warren took over on vocals, which suited me fine. However, the real treat in this song was the solo. For those of you that are familiar with the Jimi Hendrix version on electric ladyland, you will know what we got in this one. Warren somehow managed to get his tone exactly like Hendrix, and I swear he was hitting the solo virtually note for note ala Hendrix. This would seem kinda cheap, except that Hendrix solo has long been one of my favorites of all time and to finally see someone do it live was truly awesome. After Watchtower things got a little weird with the music, chaotic even. However out of the chaos came a strong clear bass line from Phil that I immediately recognized as the opening to Caution (Do Not Stop on the tracks). The old Pigpen classic that was a staple of the late 60’s Dead. I had never seen this one by any incarnation of the Dead or the members side bands, so I was thrilled. Warren channeled Pigpen on the vocals with some really bluesy signing. The ending feedback jam was spectacular and would down into a massive drums/space segment. This part was pretty cool and pretty much reminded me of every other Dead show I have ever been to. Mickey and Billy do a very unique type of drum solo that was on full display. When the craziness of space finally ended, the band kicked into the 2nd song I had never seen by this or any version of the Dead play – Cosmic Charlie. Man, what a treat. The band absolutely nailed it. Bobby and Phil shared vocals on this one. Next came the third and final song I had not seen – New Potato Caboose. Phil handled the primary vocal duties on this one and carried it off pretty well. Just as the New Potato came to a close, the band hit the opening notes of Help on the Way > Slipknot > Franklin’s Tower - the holy trinity of Dead jamdom. The version did not disappoint. The difficult and intricate slipknot was played perfectly and the crowd sang every line of Franklin’s. Roll away the Dew indeed. For the encore the band came out and gave us the traditional Sunday night Samson & Delilah. This version was particularly powerful and contained a very long intro from the drummers with Warren doing some classic slide work.
Overall I can say without a doubt that this is the best I have heard any post jerry version of the Dead. The only thing that was even really close was Phil & Friends with the Q. However, the Q was great for intense jamming and exploration, but did not really make an effort to play Dead tunes the way they were originally intended. This group being the core 4 with only one guitarist sounded more like the Dead with Jerry than any other incarnation of the band. The band had clearly practiced and appeared to be on a mission to the prove to the world that they can still deliver the goods. Catch this act if you can.

A very Bob-centric show. Even though Warren isn't an original member, I thought, soundwise, he would be treated like one. He was turned way down in the mix so Jerry songs didn't have the energy that they could have. The sound was sort of monotone the whole way through. I felt like I was at a Panic show. Otherwise, it was great to be there and kick off the tour. For a bunch of guys pushing 70, they still rock.

Ok y'all...beautiful day, couldn't ask for an easier parking lot to enter and exit from. As far as the show went, I was totally satisfied. I really liked 'The Music Never Stopped' and 'Jack Straw' was played well too.
I feel like Warren dropped the ball a couple of times...especially during the bridge on 'Estimated Prophet' and the solo on 'Touch of Grey' was kind of pedestrian. Instead of doing the cool scales he just played the melody of the song...oh well he has some pretty big shoes to fill and Jerry didn't always nail everything. The difference is Jerry wasn't afraid to make mistakes and I wish Warren would just go for it more...if he messes up, big deal. I thought Warren played the more blues based material excellently and 'Caution' was awesome! In fact everything from 'Caution' on was pretty cool...'Drums' could have been crazier but when Micky started goin' off it was awesome.
All in all it was great to see them havin' fun again and I had a great time...can't wait for Hartford!

Great show, first time I've seen them since the Further Festival days and they still have the energy I remember. Jerry was not there in person but his presence permeated the show, giving new meaning to the lyrics of He's Gone and I need a Miracle. The parking lot was very relaxed, lots of friendship and interesting people to meet. Warren fills in well on lead although occasionally stumbles where Jerry would soar. Over all it was a great show, I'm definitely looking forward to the next time they are in the area.
