// UMPHREY’S MCGEE MEDIA RECAP //
Tuesday, September 6 – Friday, September 9
Umphrey’s brought their incredible show to the Bowl this week for four straight nights of all-out madness. And with them came guest sit-ins by Bob Weir, Biz Markie, Steve Molitz, tons of covers, and the sickest light show in all of the land. See below for photos, videos, recaps, setlists, and more!
Get funky and share your photos & videos from the four-night run on our Flickr & Vimeo groups!
