I love snowboarding and I love Widespread Panic , so when Panic announced they were taking New Year's Eve on the road to play two shows at the Pepsi Center in Denver, CO I knew I had to be there.

I was so close to the Mile High Ro...

Enjoy and hope to see everyone out at New Years!
And Don't You Forget It!I'm not a big "Jam Band" fan but when Phish called it quits it seems like my own private little secret Widespread Panic took up some of the slack. I first came across this album Space Wrangler back in the late '80s while looking for used punk cd's Widespread Panic sounded punk enough so I bought it and boy was I surprised and I really liked it too! One day when I was lis...

Lucky for me, I got to see them perform it this past Sunday in Richmond. My 10th Panic show; and oddly enough, my 5th time getting "Climb To Safety" in the setlist. They must love...
While _Ball_ is seldom listed as a Panic fan's favorite album, it definitely has some quality tracks on it."Tortured Artist" is one of those songs that I can listen to and then immediately listen to again.
