In this episode we dive into what is arguably the most classic set of Counting Crows shows - 3 straight days in Wellmont, New Jersey to close the 2008 Tour (October 28, 29, 30).  In these shows, they basically repeated no songs and provided a great retrospective to fans who stuck by since the beginning.  Oh, and Chris was THERE (for all 3 shows).

Eric also talks about getting front row Center tickets to Hamburg, Germany
