On June 11 in Harrisburg, moe. and Umphrey’s McGee finally took it to the next level. After more than two decades of sharing the stage in multiple contexts and co-hosting a festival together, at long last the groups embarked on an extended series of co-headlining dates.
RECAP
Widespread Panic recently embarked on a rare Western tour. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the group was in Missoula, MT for two gigs at the KettleHouse Amphitheater. Opening night featured a number of memorable moments. The evening opened with a spirited version of “Pleas.” The first set also featured a fine run from “Walk On” into “Up All Night,” “Hatfield” and “Blue Carousel.” The second set began with a another strong sequence that moved from “Proving Ground” into “Conrad” then back into “Proving Ground” and “Free Somehow.” A bit later the group offered a 10-minute take on “Low Rider,” which Panic has performed just twice since 2009 after revisiting it in April. The band closed out the night with a version of the Talking Heads’ “Heaven” for the first time since last November.
