Agree bpasek95. Just saw them last night & there were so many drunks it almost ruined the show. I tried to tune them out but was very difficult as there were a LOT. I would have loved to have seen them in a calmer (read: less drunk) setting where I could have fully appreciated the band, which is what I paid to hear & see.

The best live performance of this song I've seen... Great video quality. I liked this venue, it was little too crowded if you ask me. My wife and I had a good view from the stairs near stage left, but again, overbooked and people just wouldn't stay put. Lot's of drunk people of course, I don't see why you would want to get wasted for an Avett show...they are just too good to waste it on being smashed.

Thanks bpasek95 - we love being right up front and close to the guys, but there were a lot of loud people up there who pushed their way in right when the guys came on. I agree, the Avetts are so amazing you want to be able to appreciate and enjoy every single second.

all of your videos are very nice from this show. I was at the show in philly the next night. Hoping to see some videos posted from there.

Thanks TABrmayes! I'm in need of a new point and shoot, so it was nice to be up close so I could get better video quality. Wish I could have made it to Philly too, sounded like it was an awesome show (but what Avett show isn't?!)

nice crowd participation.

It was my first time seeing this song live, and it was cool how everyone knew the words. I'm normally one for appreciating the Avetts' quieter songs without a lot of people singing, but the vibe in the room was really nice during this.

the crowd last night in Urbana was the same - the whole freaking night i could hear the crowd, every song - but in a respectful, i love this band sort of way. it was very very cool.

Thanks :) Was happy I had enough battery to capture this - makes me tear up a bit every time I rewatch it. By the way, you have some fantastic videos! Every time I see you've uploaded one, I know it's going to be great.
