Black Flag Norfolk reviews
DMB on Fire!
One of the best performances! Missed Jeff Coffin however LeRoi adds a slightly different feel and perhaps a few different chops, which is good. His trumpet adds much to the overall sound, and he looks much healthier as he has lost so much weight. I hardly recognized Rashawn. I would love to see him featured a bit more.
Always loved Dave's acoustic however Tim's electric guitar stylings add fire and edge. Tim Reynolds is the missing link where DMB is concerned. Great tone and feel, KILLER CHOPS! Understated at times and directly in your face at others. Always just right within the framework of the song without overpowering it.
A true show-stealer, Boyd is always amazing! His fiddle is just perfect for Dave's music. So fun to watch and to listen to. Stefan and Carter are, without exception, the absolute best and most under-rated rhythm section in the business today. The time signatures they create within the funk/rock/jazz/alt genres are just amazing.
The man is truly an original, Dave. A wonderful songwriter, a stellar musician, killer frontman, and a generous and obvious loving leader of his organization. One always knows what to expect with Dave: Talent and emotion backed by stellar musicianship and the best audio/visual available. Very playful this evening with much stage banter however not enough to distract.
The sound, as always was phenomenal. Clear, crisp and loud. Just gets better as sound technologies continue to improve. Lighting and visual screens also improve every year but never overpower the band. DMB walks that fine line of all technologies augmenting the music and band as opposed to the fire, lazer beams and monstrosity stages other bands use to hide behind or under.
Have to admit, the best Dave show I have ever attended was the day LeRoi passed in 2008. The fire and emotion coming from the stage was not to be denied. EVERYONE who was in attendance that night at a sold out Staples Center knows what I am talking about and will never forget it. A fitting tribute to a true master. This show was DMB taking a victory lap for 20 years of musical and production excellence. Was very evident in the way they performed.
Yeah, I'm a DMB fan. Always will be. Hate to keep using the word but its the only one that really fits: AMAZING!!!! DMB is the best. No wonder they are most successful touring band of the first decade of the 21st century. They have earned it!
In the OC, the only place to see a show like this is Verizon Wireless. Out under the stars with a 9/10ths full moon, late curfew, no residential neighbors to complain and a pretty nice facility. Parking sucks but you can't have everything right? At least Dave keeps it free, unlike the Hollywood Bowl and its 21 dollar stack parking.
Have not missed at summer since 2000 with a few years of multiple shows. Albeit to this writer's chagrin, a well-deserved break from touring is in order. I just hope it's very short! I won't know what to do next summer without a DMB show to look forward to.
