Then hear Umphrey's McGee road merch manager Sam Sutton talk about what it was like to work the event and check out a little of the show from a fan point of view. Sam also shares his own experience with traveling for work now and offers some insight on the night one merch snafu.

Tune in this week to hear Umphrey's McGee manager Kevin Browning and I talk about the drive inn shows in Chicago IL last month, why the event had 2 “n”’s in the spelling, what its like planning events during a pandemic, and what he thinks the future of live music looks like. Kevin also reassures fans that even though the shows in Atlanta were the last full band shows of the year, there is still plenty for us to look forward to in 2020.
