Portland ME you've changed...hadn't been there since March of 1986 for Grateful Dead Cumberland County CC 3-28-86! So much development. It's a trap. Demillo's on the Wharf was great, Michaela rocked.
Cracker took the stage on time and a tip of the hat to cover/opener...."Loser" by said GD. They killed it.
6 pc band, David Lowery vox Acoustic & Johnny Hickman lead, no fiddle /with pedal steel...fantastic show lasting 2 hours. Playing a well rehearsed set of old chestnuts.... that many fans knew the words to.. bartenders and staff were friendly,helpful and quick.... "Cinnamon " was slightly paranoid and no fun. Drinks $6. not bad.
Clarion Hotel on Congress was the best deal at $64 a night, for two nights total was 150...drinks $8. Big pool warm hot tub next to gas/convenience store. take a cab to venue.$7.
