I can't recap the whole weekend... YET, but I found some tidbits about the double encore that I thought were cool to share, along with some other SPAC stats for those of you that like this kind of stuff.
"While most of the band's double encores happened in Europe, there have been some in America. In fact, before last night, the most recent double encore was at the third night of the Randall's Island Caravan in 2011. Before that, though, the previous full-band show with a second encore in the US was all the way back in 1994 at the Ivory Tusk in Tuscaloosa.
It's also worth noting that while the second night in Charlottesville in 2010 almost had a second encore, the entire band didn't leave the stage, so we count it all as one encore."
DMB at SPAC by the numbers
28 — Number of shows Dave Matthews Band has played at SPAC, dating all the way back to September 3, 1994
21:28 — The length of the longest DMB song played at SPAC, a version of “Seek Up” August 27, 2003. The band opened with “Seek Up” Saturday but kept it to a trim 19:49
12 — The number of “Don’t Drink the Water,” “Too Much,” “Crush” and “Two Step” performances at SPAC, making them tied for the most-played songs at the venue
