    Binghamton had some pretty epic shows too. Not sure if they were all on SUNY campus though.

    They played PSU twice, both pretty good shows, particularly the 1980 one -- that one is actually very good. There's also a very dope Jerry Band show from PSU

    Since they aren’t steaming anything I assume they’re using the same visuals every night. Kinda lame but I guess we’ll see.

    A friend of mine went out there to see U2, and took shrooms the entire time, and loved it.

    I’m going in June and it’s comical how the weekend is evolving. Started out just my wife and I, invited two buddies in Feb who were on the fence until 3 weeks ago, and now we have 8 people and we’re likely to be in a suite in the 200s. If not, we’ve already bought 8 seats together in 209, so it’s a wash—except the suite comes with free drinks and tickets are the same price as the ones we bought last week

    I’m conflicted about this.

    On one hand, glad to see them keep playing. On the other, it seems wrong and inauthentic to me having them play in residence in Vegas.

    For Weir, he’s probably going to die on stage. He’s basically lived on the road and toured nonstop since he was in his teens.

    He’s not going to stop as long as he can play.

    The sheer amount of shows is shameless IMO. I get it if it was like, more shows = more accessibility and cheaper tix for fans. But it's $800+ for every show and they just kept adding

    Mayer's guitar playing turned Terrapin Station into a metal song and I really enjoyed that, can't remember which song but they did a calypso type jam at the end, Casey Jones was really fun, the Sphere is iMax on roids and as always fun to listen to Mayer jamming.

    How is the sound in there? I always thought it would be loud AF, but I heard it's actually not crazy loud at all

    Apparently he's a creep and piece of shit - sending unsolicited dick pics and being an all around perv to women on the scene. Mind boggling what people think they can get away with in this day and age but I guess nothing will stop a genuine pervert. Sucks I own a few of his shirts too.

    Was there on Friday and the visuals during FOTM were incredible.

    The Sphere is amazing. Highly, highly recommend checking it out. Pics and vids don't do it justice.
