I was expecting a good show with good music, good performances, and a good audience, but I didn't expect the following this band has and how fun the concert would be! These guys are extraordinarily talented performers and musicians, and the audience was the most fun, tolerant, and colorful group of people I've ever seen at a concert. I will definitely go to another String Cheese live incident!

First of all, any concert at the Greek Theater is automatically better. This was our first String Cheese Incident and it was a true SoCal experience. The "mellowness" wafted through the audience relaxing everyone and heightening the sensory experience.
The Cheese flowed smoothly from tune to tune, jamming effortlessly. Their style is definitely unique but lends itself to a broad interpretation. As the sun started to set they cranked up the energy and the place was rocking. Dancing in the aisles abounded.
Definitely an enjoyable experience, even though at times the band was the background to the "ecclectic" audience and their shenanigans.
They even did two encores which was quite generous.

The first set on Saturday set the tone for a wonderful weekend with String Cheese. Everyone was up and dancing with the first chords and did not sit until the conclusion Sunday evening. With Travis and Jason setting the beat, the tempo was upbeat for the most part. The crowd was happy and animated. The Greek was full but not crowded so all had room to groove.
The boy's were enjoying themselves and were generous with their music.
I only regret that I can't make it to the party continuing at Horning's Hideout next weekend.

Amazing musician's putting out amazing energy! Great blend of blue-grass style tunes that would repeatedly crescendo into amazing high energy jam sessions. Hadn't seen these guys for many moons and I forgot just how dang good they are live.

This was a fabulous concert, interrupted by a much needed rainstorm which didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the concert-goers or the band. The return from the rain brought amazing energy!

Saturday night was the first time I've seen String Cheese Incident live, and I was not disappointed. I have very broad tastes in music and these guys hit many of the genres I like, all in one show, and did it all with great skill and enthusiasm. Their talent, versatility and love of music shone throughout the show. The lighting effects also shone brightly, to a fault. The light columns and other effects were stunning, but for much of the second set, the spotlights on the crowd were overbearing and detracted from the music. Tone down those spots, and this show would be nearly flawless.

String Cheese Incident Rocked!!! I have quite a bit of their music, but I have to admit 9 times out of 10 I would choose to listen to the Grateful Dead. This was the 1st time I have seen String Cheese Incident in person. I came away extremely impressed. Loved the show!!! Great night!!!

great show, solid playing (better than in the past) but... there were too many newer songs played, for me. you, see, i've seen SCI probably 35 or so times over the past 15 years, but not as much recently. this means i'm not too familiar with the newer tunes. of course i can't expect a band to play all oldies, but i prefer to hear songs i'm familiar with, UNLESS the new ones are way better or in a different direction. neither was the case, here. GA seating at the berkeley greek is great, if you get there early enough. we were on the rail on the keith moseley side. you can't get much better than that.
