With a second song. Always nice to hear Patterson play some lead on When They Banned Imagine. Cooley is in his Willard's Garage t-shirt. And now Patterson is singing What It Means.

Word is we should keep watching. I'm thinking Isbell is going to join them for a song.

I wasn't planning on turning off the Dimmer Twins. I already missed getting their t-shirt.

I wasn't prepared for that to hit me that hard. I heard it with a few different words addressed to a kid who might live near Little Rock. You could tell they were feeling it. I sure was.

My comments in close to real time:

"Wow, that was something. Well worth your time. Super slow, achingly beautiful "imagine" and voicebreakingly passionate "What It Means" complete w/ changed lyric (something about wagging fingers insteand of spinning it for the anchors) by the Dimmer Twins and then Jason joins for a powerful "Outfit," as good as any version I've heard, w/ great backing vocal by Patterson and acoustic lead by Cooley."

How much would you pay for a tour of 12ish Jason and the 400 Unit songs, 12ish DBT songs, then an 8 song encore playing together?

$0.00

I'd like to personally witness Jason sitting in with DBT for a few songs but I have zero interest in the scenario you describe above. Mostly because a 12 song DBT set makes me slightly sick to my stomach.

Same. If Jason wants to sit in for an entire set and mix in some of his DBT material that's just dandy. But Jason solo songs at a DBT show? No thanks.

Seeing Patterson and Cooley play along with Alabama Pines and Cover Me Up in Florence back in 2015 is one of the best things I've ever seen live.

I really dug both shows I saw on the Rock and Roll Means Well tour, but this set-up wouldn't be the same. The 8-song encore would end up being mostly Jason songs or would dissatisfy too many people still living in the past.

Completely disagree. Jason loves playing hood/Cooley songs. I think you'd get encores with Heathens, Decoration Day, Zip City, Lookout Mtn, Never Gonna Change, etc.

I'm completely floored people would be against this

I didn't say playing a DBT-with-Jason encore would dissatisfy the band. All three of them would love it. You could see that on their faces yesterday. I'd love it, too.

What I am saying is that there are too many people in the audience who it would dissatisfy. Do you really want to have people yelling for Jason songs when Patterson or Cooley are trying to play theirs? There was this one guy at the Hood-Cooley-Isbell show, a tall dude at the front, far stage left, who was so obnoxious. He didn't do that, but judging by how he acted there, he would be doing it at this show. So I'm not against the idea of some sort of a joint tour. If they want to do that, I think that'd be great. I'd pay whatever I've paid for a DBT show to see it. I just think the way you've hypothesized it is guaranteed trouble. Longer band sets, shorter encore. Then you're talking.

ETA: I bolded the part of how you put it that set me on this line of thinking. I don't want to see a nostalgia show.

ETA Again: Not that I regard those songs as nostalgia. Far from it. But either an encore inevitably made up of them or audience members hassling about it? No, thank you.

If it was only one song Jason was sitting in for at the rawk show, I would love it to be Decoration Day.

I don't see how the audience would be dissatisfied, outside of the nouveau-Jason fans who don't know DBT's catalog

Let's see...eight song encore. You've just heard Patterson and Cooley do six songs each, and you wish Jason had never left the band. Decoration Day, Outfit, Never Gonna Change, Goddamn Lonely Love, The Day John Henry Died, Danko/Manuel, When The Well Runs Dry, TVA. Do you really want to have that argument with the audience?

There are still people for whom that's the version of the band. I get that, even though I don't share it. And that hypothetical tour would bring them out.

A one off show with Jason sitting in would be one thing, and an alternating headliner tour would be cool, but yeah I think we're too far past the scenario Zip described.

Although lately it seems that if I say something will "never happen" it almost immediately thereafter does, so who knows.

Jason doesn't even play more than 3 DBT songs per night at his own shows. The occasional sit-in is fine but I am happy with DBT shows the way they are now. I am seeing one Jason show next month and I'm sure that will tide me over until 2018.
