Nice review from Fitzdave from CountingCrows.com:

Awesome show, awesome set (all but one missing song), festive crowd, a ton of drunk people .. awesome fan club members .. met Skate Betty, Round Here, I love Hanson and Amy... we enjoyed our time together ... If they are showing up to a show .. you better get there early to beat them ...2:45 got my wife and I fourth and fifth in line - by the way Jules - there were non CC early entry folks in OUR line (they got them from the baseball team).

The show was phenomenal. Live was fantastic and CC was even better - so much energy from the entire band ...I saw a few mentions of Adam and Charlie … Dan was “into it” as well … I would not call Collective Soul boring ...maybe old but not boring … the triple play lineup was good ...

Regarding the stoppage, it was because some drunk Jack*** kept trying to work his way up to the front and was causing a scene .. this was the second time he did that .. the first time during Live ... there were a bunch of crowd surfers ... they sold 5,500 tickets not counting walk ups ... the place was packed ... you could not get on the field after 6:45 ...things like this don't happen very often in Frederick ...

Its funny because I asked the Aberdeen crowd how the mood of the crowd was there and they said … calm … it was anything but calm during the Counting Crows set … I expected the wild side during Live’s set it was not as crazy …

My only complaint is I did not get to see Perfect Blue Buildings ...only the second show this tour they have not played it .. oh well, there is always the next show (thanks for posting on the website though) They could have come out and played that song and left and I would have been happy ... but on the same note .. I can't pick a song to take off the set list ...

I can't wait for the new album and the tour that goes with it ... I think they should always have Live tour with them ...

Review from Jilly from the fansoflive myspace:

It was amaizing. I went with my sister and brother to the concert at Harry Grove Stadium in Frederick, MD. Live was really awesome - so much energy - you could really feel it!

The only think I would say was that at the venue (the stadium) they should have either set it up so you didn't have to walk around the entire stadium to get to your car - or at least put some lighting where you do have to walk.

But the concert itself was awesome - and I love Counting Crows too - so it was like double fortune!
