Haven't caught DNB yet, but saw New Riders awhile ago in SF at Great Amer. Music Hall and they were great. They don't play SoCal much., but I'm waiting to catch DNB and/or New Riders again. I first dug New Riders a million years ago when I was a college student in Tampa, Fla. The first album w/Jerry is still the best for me.
Saw Dave Nelson & Friends at the Brookdale Lodge a few weeks ago. Great show, great people, just a great scene in all. Too bad I had to leave at 12:15 a.m. - I was getting a bit sleepy, and had an hour drive through the woods to get home!
DNB/DNF is a great live experience. If you're a fan of traditional Dead or NRPS songs, I highly recommend going. Besides David Nelson's excellent songwriting and playing, Barry Sless on lead& pedal steel guitar is something to behold. My only fear is that the band will get too popular and stop playing small, intimate venues!
They haven't done yet
great band, yop of my want to see list
please David south of Spain would be nice
Bob

Spanish Jam
I've missed the last two years when DNB played here on Maui but am looking forward to their shows at the end of the month.
They'll be playing Stella Blues Cafe on Feb. 23 (restaurant in Kihei that is liberally decorated with Dead and Jerry posters) and then at Charley's in Paia on the 24th.
Looks like Molo will be the drummer with DNB this year instead of Kreutzmann.
BTW, the Kreutzmann, Papa Mali, Hutch Hutchinson, Matt Hubbard lineup that played pre- NYE at Charley's on December 29 was alot of fun. Following that with another jam band of the DNB caliber is fantastic!
