- This archive release comes from a pair of mid-week shows at Rockingham Dragway in Rockingham NC during the Summer Tour 2001. The two-day festival featured The Del McCoury Band, Leftover Salmon, Keller Williams, Acoustic Syndicate, and Junior Brown. The Rockingham shows have always been among my favorites from the 2001 summer tour, and we're excited to release these shows, as we KNOW you'll enjoy them!

  1. It is no mistake why this show is the most reviewed on Friends of Cheese site. I took my Famiy (wife, 11 & 8yo). This was the second concert there,Metalica being the first. They actually reduced their security once they realize we were harmless Hippies. Lots of diehard Colorado folks, great laid back hassell free lot. we TOOK OUR BLANKET AND CHAIRS RIGHT UP TO ABOUT 50' FROM STAGE. MY CHILDREN DANCED WITH THE hula hoopers and the band mingled throughout the crowd during Kellers set. Travis practiced on a drum pad next to the board. I met Nershi and thanked him for their wonderful vibe.You can tell right from the onset there was something special happening, the music was awesome building up a frenzy of energy.As the show progressed so did the Crowd/Band energy,it has been the closet vibe to a Dead Show for us. It was sick! The gorillas and dancing bears were the toppers for sure. Hot more ways than the temps:), they had a misting tent and a carnival atmosphere of vendors, I cannot recall any negativity, Peace!

    2. I was there too, it was during the week and I could not get anyone else to go so I went solo. It was hot as Hades but there was this crazy breeze coming up the hill from the dragstrip so it wasn't that bad! Been a fan ever since then!
