DMB put on a huge first night opener at UMB Bank Pavilion in St. Louis. A big show went off with a bang opening with Granny and moving right along until they dropped Raven in slot four.
Raven has been out of totally out commission (no teases or partials) since 10/24/02. Also, in our recent interview with Boyd Tinsley, he said that of Raven, Kit Kat Jam and Busted Stuff only one was likely to return. (Process of elimination here says KKJ and BS are out for the rest of the tour)
Perhaps more telling is that Boyd also specifically said that he thought Dreaming Tree would come back this year. Hopefully that information holds as well.
The new songs soundchecked yesterday did not show up, so either the guys aren't ready to play them out yet or they're holding on to them for a later.
Here's the full setlist (DMBAlmanac):
Granny

Note the midset PNP->Rapunzul and of course JTR and Proudest Monkey -> Satellite. We have a few pictures of the stage people took from their camera phones. You can see there is some kind of lattice or window type thing going on with staggered video screens. It looks pretty cool.
Here is the first set of mp3's from the show:
JTR 5-30-06
Raven 5-30-06
