This was a very weird show for me (more to do with the emotion of a long run of shows coming to a close than the performance). At 1:15:00, you hear Dave pluck a note and just stare somebody down... I don't know who it was or where they were or what noise they were making. That sound (not to mention the look on his face) was so piercing, it took me a couple songs to recover. I felt that shit! I was outside this stage door too, we probably crossed paths.

There are some light rumples at the top from the way it was rolled into the bag at the show, but has been stored in a tube ever since. If anyone is interested, I will sell for $30.00 and donate 100% to Austin Pets Alive!, one of the organizations currently focused on Hurricane Harvey rescue. (I looked over several and have chosen this one based on their location and mission.) If interested, send me a message! It'll be an additional $7.00 to ship within the US, so $37.00 total, with $30.00 donated. (If no one is interested here, I will list on eBay under as a charitable listing.)

  RunningRattie Does anyone remember the name of the diner where Dave & Gill got their Last Pharaoh hamburger receipt? I can't for the life of me and all that's coming to mind are dinner names I probably heard in the movies.

    RunningRattie I could swear it was a literal diner, like with "Diner" in the name, specifically in Nashville. They said the name once or twice when introducing Last Pharaoh, but I just can't remember. Thanks for the help!

You use the Buy Tickets button on the DRM tour page, and enter the code. I looked at three dates - Bloomington, NOLA, and Jackson - Jackson was the only one whose ticketing agent (Ticketfly) requested a promo code, and then passed me on to the fan sale page. I took this to mean that someone didn't do the best job of setting up the pre-sales, or else they weren't starting at 10am (both EST and CST). None of the others I tried even requested a code or referenced the pre-sale in any way. Luckily, so many are GA. (Update: I just tried Columbia, and it asked for and accepted the code so I guess that one's functional.)  less

I know Brittany Haas is doing a Mount Kilimanjaro climb for charity at the end of this month... wonder if she's already gone abroad. Nothing AT ALL against Hargreaves, but I'm glad I got to finish out my round of 2015 shows with Brittany. I would have been shocked had she not come out to take the stage.

No tour dates listed or anything so anyone could hang this regardless of whether or not they caught a show. LOVE the artwork, and would rate condition 9/10 due to two small creases from the tiny bag they rolled it into. The band was selling them for $40 signed. Send me a message if interested.
