Dave Matthews Band doesn’t normally take a set break, but it did last night in Alpharetta, GA. Just a few songs into the band’s show at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre, DMB was forced offstage for nearly an hour due to lightning in the area. When Dave Matthews Band returned, the group fittingly resumed the show with Led Zeppelin‘s “Fool in the Rain”.

“Recently” opened the show for the first time since June 28th, 2022, per DMBAlmanac, and the band fired off “Grey Street” and “Stay or Leave” before pausing the show for 53 minutes. When the group returned, the jovial keys from the Led Zeppelin classic picked the mood right back up, as Matthews crooned, “Why don’t you show up and make it alright-yeah? / It’s alright.”

Despite the delay, Dave Matthews Band still managed to fit 19 total songs into Wednesday’s show, including a “Jimi Thing” featuring Tedeschi Trucks Band saxophonist Kebbi Williams. Alpharetta also witnessed the tour debuts of “Captain” and “Drive In, Drive Out”, older cuts “Where Are You Going” and “You Never Know”, and covers of David Bowie‘s “Let’s Dance” and a set-closing “All Along the Watchtower”. DMB ended up circling back around to Zeppelin by adding a snippet of “Stairway to Heaven” to the “Watchtower” jam.

Back for the encore, Dave Matthews Band poured up a glass of Tex Ritter‘s “Rye Whiskey” before sending the crowd home singing with “Crash into Me”.
