The String Cheese Incident

"Lynn, I`m so sorry to hear about your son. I was making CDs for a friend to try and get him turned on to The Cheese, and was reminiscing on shows I attended when I read your post. Twenty-One is so young. Regards, Gary."

"My son was a huge fan of SCI, he toured the east coast with the band and met alot of interesting people along the way. I never even knew about String Cheese until he started playing the songs over and over in his room. Believe me, now I`m hooked on the music! My son`s name is Craig B----. He was at the Fillmore concert Thurs., Fri., and Sat with his close friends. He even had tickets that were found in his wallet for an additionl couple of days in another city. I`m sorry to say he passed away in the hotel room early Sun. morning. He was 21. He will be missed dearly. Knowing that he saw his favorite band before he died makes it a little easier for me as a mother. He probably is still going to every concert in spirit. He loved you guys. Take Care, Lynn."

"My personal favorite of the Denver shows. Enjoy this one. From the beginning to the end a great show."

"This should have been the big peak of the Fillmore run, and it almost was. The energy was incredible, and the setlist was written to be a huge night, but there were a few major mistakes that make me feel Friday was the better show. Most notably, the first half of It Is What It Is was TERRIBLE, marred by lyrical flubs and bad changes. Once they got into the `I Love the Jam` jam though, Keith and Kang really stepped it up. I`m not really trying to be negative, because it was an incredible show, I just feel that the gears slipped a little bit and they didn`t quite hit it the way they wanted to. The bluegrass sit ins were great, especially Bryan Sutton who is on a whole other level. The show definitely reached a big peak though with the Galactic> Shine Reprise. They ARE smart enough! Overall this was a really emotional show, with Jack`s heartfelt and clever speech bringing to mind right away that this could be the last Fillmore Incident ever. Restless Wind to open brought the tears as we remembered back on all the amazing times we`ve had in that room. Roots run deep. I hope a recording of the opening set surfaces, because we could not hear a THING up front during it."

"It`s all about the Galactic...amazing. peace"

"Watching Nirsch picking away on his back like an 80`s glam rocker, then falling as he was getting up was absolutely hysterical. I was so glad i actually looked up from dancing at that moment to see it. Such a fun time and great show."

"DID THEY PLAY WHIP IT!? That show was off the hook . . . highlights were definitely opening with restless wind; valley of the jig; psychedelic bluegrass whip it with michael travis singing; and the last set of encores the fillmore will ever see. THANKS CHEESE! :)"

"after night two i didint think it could get any better but night three had a real good vibe, so its the best. get it. I WISH I COULD GO TO VAIL!!!! have to take a test though, its gunna suck"

"BABY YOU ROCKED ME!!!! on my birthday 3/24. thank you so much."

"Well its just like the other review said, SPECIAL LAND! The 3-24 was amazing especially the galactic > Shine (re)! Everyone was going insane.....r u kidding me, SHINE REPRISE! Then two nice encores and I was more the happyto go home with that. Then came drumz > jam> Sand dollar tease > TEXAS! Shit almighty!"

"What a magical three nights!!!!!! Reprising Shine over two nights - fantastic. I havent seen Devo Energy Helmets since 1981 and I have never heard flatpickin guitar and mandolin solos in Whip It ever. The boys delivered at the Fillmore every night and I consider myself lucky to have been there to see three rock solid performances and a high energy final farewell to the Fillmore. I left with the same fond memories and nostalgic feeling as when the Dead said goodbye to Winterland. Travis, Billy, Kyle, Keith, Mike and Jason - my eternal gratitude for another set of memories. Peace to you all. "

"From what I have listened to so far, these shows sound absolutely incredible. It makes me so frustrated that I had to miss the winter carnival. They are en fuego!!! Also, is it me or does Nershi`s guitar sound a little different? "

"We go to Incidents..and sometimes they are special...this night was an evening in "SpecialLand"..They are all highlights..the chuckle of the evening was the joint band jam bluegrass "Whip it" complete with Devo hats.. Don`t hesitate to get this one..."
