Oteil Burbridge Tickets

As I scrolled through my social media an add for Oteil & Friends popped up. I opened it up for the details, $60.10 per ticket at a GA venue. I thought that sounds like a deal & a really good time. I researched the venue because I hadn’t heard of it. It sounded like an old ornate theater but turns out it’s rather new with a history of a dance club under another name. I forgot what the lower entry way bar tender told me what it was, the term strip club was also mentioned. The Bellwether was a great place to see a show. Parking was across the street in a gated lot for $15.00 The show started just about 8:30 PM Oteil came out seemingly a little sad to announce some unfortunate news. Melvin Seals wouldn’t be joining us tonight. I’m sure there were a few who may not of seen Melvin for quite awhile an we’re looking forward to seeing him tickle the keys, I know I fell in that category. Well the show went on and it was a very fun great sounding night. I did find myself returning to the bar more frequent than I intended but I hadn’t been out much this last year. Didn’t make it out to any sphere shows. The set list was good but I could’ve used one or two more Dead songs. That goes without saying. I would come out to see Otiel anytime his in town. The after lot party was fun too! ??

Wonderful time. Loved the venue-clean, shiny, new, perfect temperature, nice and friendly staff and bartenders. Incredible show. Great sound.

Oteil and the rest of the band brought it Thursday night at the Bellweather. We missed Melvin Seals who, sadly, was out sick, so Jason Crosby did double duty handling both the keys and the electric fiddle solos. There were straight ahead, beautiful performances of Allman covers, with some Dead and JGB woven in. But the musicianship! This all star band creates astounding vibrational environments with mashups, and impressive re-interpretations of well-known material, delivered through fresh jamming. They also graced the set with several articulate and inspiring original songs. Lamar Williams Jr. provides the soul-funk and Steve Kimock’s son is a shining light on the drums. Can’t wait to see them again.

Not much too say, but GHANK YOU FOR ARRAL GOOD TIME !!!

Bummer was Melvin was not feeling well and did not perform. And Oteil & Friends created a first set of a lifetime!!! The jams, song choices, and mash ups were truly mesmerizing. Friend of the Lithium Devil is for the ages. The crowd was high energy, with spinners and dance zones all around the perimeter. Catch this tour while you can.

Great show. Fantastic sound system. Oteil and Friends really entertained us. Excellent music, great musicians who all had a turn to shine. Melvin Seals is a delight to watch, Jason Crosby on violin and keyboards was superb. The other musicians as well as the singer Lamar were great. Oteil really put on a good show. Always enjoy seeing him from Allman Brothers - Dead collaborations.

This was one of the best shows I’ve seen in years. All the musicians were incredible and great songs.

Oteil and his incredible group of "friends"exceeded my expectations. Totally creative versions of Dead songs, and a throbbing version of Whipping Post.

Oteil & Friends were amazing! It almost feels like you are just hanging out with them as they jam some great songs and have a great time doing it. Every musician in the group is excellent and full of love that they radiate to the crowd. The Sound is a new venue located at Del Mar Track/Fairgrounds. There is a lot to love about this venue. Great sound and layout and easy parking. They even had cups of water ready at the bar. One note: the parking is expensive.

Outstanding show!!! So glad we made the three hour drive to see it.
