The setlists can easily be compared to that of the 2009 tour, but DMB are still promoting their new album and Europe is finally getting more DMB love. You can hear for yourself with a few of the tapes that have surfaced from the tour that the "Big Whiskey" songs are already evolving and becoming more polished since last years tour. One of many highlights is Tim Reynold's longer solo on "Seven".
