I get that same goose bump inducing vibe, whenever I hear old dead shows and Bill Graham introduces them. Really puts you in the moment.

I am 63 and I have followed them for years, started not long after they got started. I have seen a great number of their shows. Ironically, I was at this particular show as well with one of my good buddies, and we were fortunate enough to be invited to camp out in a guy’s backyard that we met at the show. That same friend and I will be attending 3 shows in Asheville, NC this July.

Word

My girlfriend at the time, who was from the Bahamas, and I got to Athens for this concert I believe the day before the show. When we arrived to the show it was around 2 or 3, and the crowd was really growing at that point. I loved when JB first came out on stage and said “evening ladies and gents!” The crowd went nuts when he said that. JB is such a kind soul, just a good guy, as is the whole band. There is a certain warmth and love in panic’s music that is truly priceless. I saw so many panic shows in the 90’s, from 93-99, and I know this sounds crazy, but it was like literally a calling to all of their shows, and the first time I ever heard them which was in the fall of 92 on cassette, I was immediately hooked, no question about it. I knew right then I would be a panic fan forever. Sunny, you are the bomb dude!!!!!!

I'm glad you enjoy this band and came across this video and enjoyed the video. They stream all their live shows on panicstream.com and you can also listen and download their previous shows . Never too late for anything. Some fans prefer shows before the original guitarist Michael Houser died in 2002 but they still play to this day and they still jam. My first show I went to was in Danville Illinois and I was 20. 2 years later the original drummer had to call it quits due to an illness that killed him in 2020, so I am blessed to be able to have seen him up there on stage as well. Their drummer now is Duane Trucks which comes from a musical family, his uncle was Allman Brothers Band drummer Butch Trucks and his older brother is Derek Trucks who is a former member of the Allman Brothers Band and currently performs with the Tedeschi Trucks Band, check them out as well Derek Trucks is a amazing on the guitar. My brother's got me hooked on Widespread panic when I was about 15 years old. My brother's had this on DVD and always showed me it growing up and I always wanted to show my buddies the video now days being I somehow forgot about this whole video over the years and I could not find the show on KZread or anywhere in general and could never find it for some reason. Then one day I remembered to get and rip the DVD that my brother had, so I could upload and share it with everyone, since it was not on KZread. The video really does justice for this show. But I could never find the video, so I'm blessed I was able to upload this video and share to everyone that has seen or has never seen it. They might even stream some of their live concerts on KZread, I'm not sure on that but there is a lot of videos of the band out there. Check them out! I'll try to get time to upload more widespread panic shows for all of you!

Everyone played off Houser's energy and his changes.(yes that's the guy seated and has stage 4 cancer making that guitar his bitch) Panic was truly passionate about their live shows. Still are it's just different....a different landscape. Some of the shows I attended in the 90s especially in Pelham at Oak Mountain (always a 3 night run) you couldn't help but show your own energy whatever that may be. It was all good tho!! "Listen... If it feels good we shake"

I only got into Panic 10 years or so ago. Went to see them at a theater in Minneapolis around 6 years ago-my first and so far only live show. I remember Sonny was wearing a black shirt with the words “home team” on it. There was this celestial glow of white and gold light radiating from him. He radiates love and welcoming and joy in the music. Granted, I was rolling my balls off. But man that was a powerful sight. I couldn’t stop staring at him.

This might be Panic’s best show but they are still the best band to see live. Coming soon to a town near you.

I get goosebumps watching this. I have the dvd but its been a long while since I watched it. We are smack in the middle front row, I'm to the right of the dude with the white hat on the rail with my "Welcome To The Schoolszone" banner. That's the day I fell in love with Athens, GA. Miss you Mikey & Todd ❤‍🔥We got there a couple of days before & made it to WA St early in the afternoon. The entire street was blocked and the rail was actually at the very top of the hill. As soon as folks began trickling in, the crew instructed us to pick up the rail and walk down to the stage with it. Wish someone had filmed that, it was fun. I always wanted to get a hold of one of those "Light Fuse Getaway" banners & hang it from my deck. My bf then was going to climb up on one of the poles to get one like others were doing but I asked him not to. Amazing show. Best Day Ever. We were so lucky to have been part of that amazing experience. After Panic we went to see Day By The River. 💖

Our little crew made our way to the 40 watt around noon that day after finding a sweet parking spot underneath a bank drive thru awning the night before. Hadn’t slept a lick or skipped a beat when we started to notice the sheer number of people that seemed to just keep growing. People had started to find showtime real estate at that point with no black top even showing a good 100ft from the stage so we got with it and staked our claim Slightly to the right of stage left if that makes sense. This was at 2 pm by 5 it was all I could do to turn around and look back up Washington to see the largest gathering of People I have ever been a part of still even to this day. I’m Sure I wasn’t the only one that looked down around set break to see a pretty steady stream of “liquids” from the thousands of people behind me spilling beer and heavens knows what else making it’s way even further toward the stage setup. My brother and 2 buddies I was so blessed to experience that with even know the time counts on the video where they repeatedly show us groovin ever so briefly. Our wives and girlfriends are so sick of get together’s from over the past 20 years where the night ends with one of us finding that CD and playing it and talking about that magical moment that night I’ll never forget. It makes me get emotional when I relive it in words like this but at the same time so HAPPY I have to sit on my hands to keep from CLAPPING ..! I’ll be 50 in October but it still feels like it ALL happened last year..! Love to my SPREAD NECKS and SPREAD KIN and I’ll see y’all at the next Show..!
