I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: February 4, 2026] Umphrey’s McGee

I saw Umphrey’s McGee ten years ago.  I didn’t really know that much about them but I had heard that they were a lot of fun live.  This was at the Fillmore and for the first half of the night I was upstairs, far from the action and I was kind of bored.  But for the second half I got down pretty close (people went for drinks during the intermission) and I enjoyed myself a lot more.

I’ve considered seeing them again and seeing as how this show was at a relatively close place, I thought I might go.  But Mayo Pac is all seats and that didn’t sound like a lot of fun.  And since I haven’t listened to them at all in ten years it was just easier to stay home.

There’s a guy I follow on Instagram who has been to over 200 Umphrey’s McGee shows.  Incredible.
