You've totally convinced me! Jiffy Lube IS totally worth going to!

Enjoyed Neil.  Won't be going back to Jiffy Lube ever again…pretty sure anyway.

I think if it hadn’t been for the storm approaching we would have gotten two more songs in the encore like Camden did…but it’s hard to complain….show was so inspiring

Same.

Not because I wouldn’t go but because I can’t think of any act they will book that I need to see…..

It did take me 48 minutes door to door going and 88 minutes coming back (half of that time I just sat in parking lot parked..didn’t even try to move)

The concessions situation was really bad but worked in my favor as I didn’t consume anything and was able to just stay in my seat and not worry about bathrooms.

I had to yell at two different people to shut the fuck up. But they shut the fuck up….largely. Who the fuck talk yells through Cortez????

All in all spending $113 all in and they mailed me the new cd for basically a 30th row seat was a great value. Although I picked the wrong side as Neil plays a lot with his back to his left…

For the first 9 songs I felt like I was watching the greatest show I had ever seen. Then the acoustic solo set flagged a bit and then Crazy Horse came back and we were beginning to get liftoff when they prematurely called it a night because of approaching rain and bad lightning (saw it driving home…).  First nine songs were just unbelievable.

makes sense about the weather cutting show.  Really enjoyed the show, and was happy with the extended acoustic set.  Parking lot leaving was a mess of course, and I drove through some long torrential downpours getting back to MD.  Luckily most drivers were freaked out and driving at reasonable speed and kept distances.

They may also have cut staff early cause there was no order to parking lot. There were some staff but it was pretty much leave like you can. They knew bad lightning was coming and probably didn’t want too much staff in lots.

Kind of a miracle show happened at all given storm before and after!! Gorgeous 🌈 too

I really couldn't ask for a better, more inspiring show. That was total bucket list for me. It went by so damn fast. Neil sounds pristine, and goddamn he can shred. One of the best concerts I've ever seen. I actually loved the solo acoustic portion…I loved all of it. "Love and Only Love" was just unreal. All of it. "Cinnamon Girl" sounded as perfect as it could ever be. The sound was just incredible. I never thought that I'd get to see a band at this stage of their career and lives put on such an incredible performance. I could have watched them for another hour and still probably felt like it wasn't long enough.

And thankfully I think it only took about 15 minutes to get out of the parking lot. Got there at 8pm, saw Rev. Billy's last song…we ended up in a parking lot that wasn't too crowded, which made getting out relatively easy. Was back home in DC in like 45 minutes I think? Really not awful experience, but I was bracing for something much worse. Was home and in bed by the time the storm hit.

+1
I am still in awe. Just got goosebumps

I swear to god at one point I turned to a stranger sitting next to me and we said to each other “This is just incredible”


And it’s not that Neil is 78. It was incredible period. I feel very blessed to have been there after all these years wanting to see him.

Anyone else going?

If you can get me a ticket I am.  But I refuse to take part in IMP's LYTE ticket scalping scheme (Lyte).
