Here's the deal: we've all been to shows full of superstars. At the end, they all get up on stage, and play some random fiddle tune or three-chord standard. It's mostly chaos, but it gives everybody a chance to take a picture that has all of their heroes on the stage at once. This is nothing like that (I know - I was at the shows on the 5th and 6th). This was carefully and lovingly arranged and choreographed. The songs they played are not trivial, and they all had to go learn the tunes and their parts. Then they came out and played as an acoustic Americana orchestra. If you have a chance to see this tour before it's over, run don't walk to get a ticket. You will leave the show changed, for the better.

Amen brother. Of the utmost finest musicianship. Sarah noted at one point earlier in this show, reflecting upon the isolating experience of the pandemic, and the relatively isolating experience of being on tour; however with the three class shop they were rolling, they had created a new family, experimenting and sharing the joys and the laments of life on the road together. This tour leg closer exemplifies the bond they created, amidst their innate and incredible musical abilities. So long as I can, I will seek out moments such as these. Big thanks to the artists, for their gusto in getting up there in front of everyone, and laying bare their rhythmic soul.

I love how Emily from Watchhouse is smiling the whole time.

I used to listen to punch brothers quite a lot and watchhouse are just amazing. What a awesome colab. Shame I'm halfway across the world in the UK or I would be at ever show. I really love watchhouse, they're such a beautiful and talented couple.

I guess it goes both ways - kind of get up and watch enthusiasm. But by the same token by sitting everyone gets an opportunity to see the musicians play and soak in their talent. No lip sinking or recordings being played here. Kind of like a Carnegie Hall performance I guess. just sit and watch and be amazed.

Yeah it is Watchhouse

Look at 2:15 as Paul Kowert gets into the fun. That gorgeous growl he gets from his instrument is just butter.

2:14 Just noticed Thile completely digging the cello/bass arco bit.

The Sundays! Brilliant group gone way to soon….

Wildfire. So say it's an incredibly powerful composition is really kinda lazy. It's that song that needs to be played and played ad nauseum and everywhere. Life is quite encouraging of late, with the haters getting louder and louder. That's because there's less and less of them as they gently fall victim to attrition. Ya know, we're getting close. The next big thing will be to get just one of the top 1% of the top 1% to become benevolent. It CAN happen.

I love that they did Where the soul of man never dies--but it strikes me that none of them are actually anywhere near professing Christ. It is saddening, especially in light of Tony Rice being (in my estimation) where the soul of man never dies. I love this song though
