Yeah! Nice!
And what a great job the Comanche does too.
Like Dad was a Strat and Mum was a Les Paul - Z-coils are special.

Re: Umphrey's McGee covers Pink Floyd -G&L content
i've become a rabid UM fan since i 1st saw them in 2008. their live shows are totally awesome: they have amassed over 100 originals, and their musicianship is impressive. best light show i've seen as well. they always do a different cover song in their set each night. $35-40 for a ticket for close to 3 hours of music. then, if you liked the set, download the mp3 of the show from their website 2-3 days after the show, for $9.99, to revisit it. I can thank Jake C. for attracting me to G&L guitars. I will see them in Baltimore 7/19 for another round!

Love UM. Love Comanches. Always felt "validated" that Jake played G&L. Was really glad to see that G&L finally got a Comanche into his amazing hands (that whole band is insanely skilled). I saw them Halloween 2008, but ever since they've played my "region" on the day the clocks get set ahead, so the long drive back + the lost hour of sleep have kept me from seeing them again. Thanks for posting the video!!

seems like red rocks in Colorado would be a really cool place to catch a concert!

Brings back memories of the days of listening to Pink Floyd at night with most of the lights dimmed. The variation at the last couple of minutes of the song was very nicely done.

I was at this show, as I am a huge UM fan (let alone a Jake Cinninger fan), which lead me to my first G&L purchase. If you want to hear a nice tone get a hold of this 2015 Red Rocks set and have a listen to the 2nd "Pay The Snucka", his intro solo is literally RIPPING.
Also, this is my first post. Hello there G&L Community!

Hi DrewTech, welcome to G&LDP. I caught Um last night at Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Pier six, outdoor amphitheatre.
It was still over 90 degrees at show time, slight breeze off the harbor. Although not comparable to the stellar Red Rocks performances, was still strong as I've come to expect. New song called Stinko's Ascension, very cool. That red comanche jake uses is a beauty and sounds great, especially in his hands. He came back out for encore with a black Fender Strat, sounded thin by comparison.
