What, no love for https://spaffnerds.com/shows/2018-03-05???
That show will be talked about for years. The jamming throughout, even during the Mind's Unchained, is so patient. Sometimes intense while other times just plain beautiful.
Also forgot these from 2017:

https://spaffnerds.com/shows/2017-11-15These were some of my most repeated listens from fall (even more than Halloween and Fort Collins). Dig in.

We've definitely talked about it on Facebook but I dont think here. Overall, I am definitely let down by the nugs soundboards - I've got the subscription so its great to be able to hear them so quick now but I think some of them the mix is a bit off and almost all of them are very quiet with some worse than others - that Crystal Bay 3/5/18 show being a good example, very quiet and bass gets kind of lost in the mix.
I think it started in the Fall last year, I am not sure what changed - my Asbury 2017 download sounds great - good mix, good volume, and I'm pretty sure it was available 2-3 days after the show. Compared to the SBD from Asbury 2018 its crazy - volume drops and the mix gets muddy, vocals can be a little low too. Im still pumped to get the releases but would love them getting a little better treatment even if it means we need to wait longer to get them

I thought so...its pretty apparent. I too have every Nugs release in 24bit and it sounds like their board is not set right. Thank God for quality EQs and well made amps and pre-amps for they helped out a bit.

@tpace A few shows ive noticed a little bit of buzzing as well - again, that Crystal Bay show comes to mind but I've noticed it on others as well

I am 3/4 done the 2017-02-12 Charlottesville show that a lot of you rave about and I'm blown away. It's definitely a 5 star nug. That Postman sammy is incredible. People don't understand why I have invested $11 000 in an audio/video system yet drive a 2001 Subaru with bad brakes but you guys might
-
@dontjudgedave @Cody This one holds a special place in my heart guys, this Charlottesville show was the first show i ever downloaded and listened to end to end. I loaded it up boarding a plane to Jackson, WY, and proceeded to cruise around town all week with that on repeat with snow dumping. and epic conditions Been hooked every since, and i'll never forget charging through the glades with Bunch blaring turned up to 11!
Moments like that are what life's all about
-
@PhillySpaffnerd that 2/12/17 show really is THAT good gonna have to listen again its been a few weeks now
-
Boise is really good. Eyes, Longview, Plans, Ain’t that Wrong>Down Under, Walls.
-
2/1/17 > 2/12/17. Listened to 2/1 a lot
-
Just finished listening to Houston https://spaffnerds.com/shows/2017-11-03 and it got my morning started just right. Both “Lonely” and “Memphis in the Meantime” brought the heat for being set openers, and set the tone for the rest of their sets. Earliest show with Cam on drums that has really stood out to me.
-
Maybe I overlooked but do not forget 2018/01/26 Raleigh It's a Bunch and 2018/01/27 Atlantla LTLO. The LTLO might be the heaviest shit I heard Moss serve. One of the most inspirational jams my ears dun heard.
