gab check the link I posted it will give you and idea of the live shows cause its a video. Greg and I were watching this last night and we thought they seemed a little more subdued than what you would see at a typical live show in a club. They are a little more toned down, maybe b/c it's a radio show. It's still a great video though. agreed but like I said you get an idea of a live show, theres a lot of posts on their official forum about people saying they don't really hear the punk influence on their studio albums and I agree though I can hear it in a lot songs to truly understand how people say its slightly punk influenced you have to see them live. I really like that doc watson cover though!

Oh wow, thanks Bogo for the video! I thought it was going to be a torrent or something, which is why I hadnt clicked on it. Sonya, that sounds great to me! Im all about dancing, no matter how much I love a band, if you cant groove to it I think the show is not as fun. I absolutely trust yours and Greg's music taste, Im basically into pretty much the same things... and now that Ive seen the vid, Im convinced ;D The only thing that sucks is I hate the venue, can't smoke inside and the bartenders suck. Oh well, I think it'll be worth it. Thanks guys!

yup I saw that, luckily I dled the torrent for that grassroots show u sent me before it happened and am now downloading via dht. I posted on their official forum about their taping policy and the general response was taping is allowed but not trading wtf if they allowed trading it would spread the word about their music way faster. I listen to their live shows a lot more than their studio albums.

I agree with you. It's kind of weird to have the policy of "you can tape it but you can't trade it". Whatever the case, it's a shame. They are an up and coming band and it's great exposure to have their shows available on etree.

Ryan, I want all the details! I'm so excited that you're going to see them, I can't wait to hear your review of the show. ;D Take some pictures if you can. Here's a pic taken by Crackerfarm from the show we went to in Raleigh.

OMG, I just found out they're coming back to Raleigh on Oct. 26th! It's on a Friday and Greg is off call, plus it's our anniversary weekend! I bought 2 tix. They're playing a show at NC State with Guster. I'm not sure if the Avetts are opening or co-headlining. The show is billed as "Guster & The Avett Brothers". I bet The Avett Bros. will get a better response from the crowd than Guster. #dance# #dance##dance##dance##dance#

exactly, they're a lot more popular in NC than they are anywhere else. This show is perfect timing too...Greg was supposed to be on call that weekend but a few days ago he convinced his co-worker to trade with him because it's our anniversary weekend. Even if he was on call we'd take the chance. He works right down the street from NCSU.
We're going to see G. Love on the 31st and Greg was supposed to be off call so we bought tickets...then his coworker submitted a vacation request for that day so now Greg is stuck being on call. We're crossing our fingers that he won't get paged in the middle of the show. Wish us luck!

For setlist purposes that song is called "Shame". Keep em coming! Looks like you had a good spot where you could see everything!
