100+ New Shows From Dopapod Are Now on nugs.net

You’re in for a treat this week if you loved the first collection of Dopapod shows that we added to the nugs.net catalog earlier this year. Over 100 new shows are now available to purchase or stream with a subscription. Listening to a Dopapod show is unlike anything else and with over 100 shows, there’s plenty to choose from. We talked to Dopapod Keyboardist Eli Winderman to find out about a couple of the band’s favorite shows from the new collection.

2/23/2013- Blockley Pourhouse, Philadelphia PA

“Ah, the good old Blockley Pourhouse.  We loved playing this now-defunct Philly music venue.  I think it’s where we had some of our best shows leading up to this time.  I grew up outside of Philly so we always had a bit of a connection to the city.  This particular show was added last minute after playing two nights in a row.  In between the last song and the encore they asked if we wanted to announce a surprise 3rd night and we agreed.  What transpired was basically a one-song set.”

4/27/2013- Higher Ground Ballroom- Burlington VT

“I listened back to a lot of our shows while preparing for the bands return and this show really stuck out to me.  It was the last show of a very grueling and never-ending tour and in my opinion, I think this may be the most “dialed in” we’ve sounded.  But that is all up to everyone’s own opinion of course.   Coincidentally, it was the same date as our recent Capitol Theatre return show.”

9/22/2016- Resonance Pink Floyd Set, Thornville OH

“This was actually the first set back after Fro’s hiatus from the band from 2013-2016.  We had a blast putting together a Pink Floyd set and we really tried to make it unique.  I’m proud of the different arrangement ideas we came up with for these classic songs.  We even brought in an Arp Omni string synth to replicate the sounds on “Welcome to the Machine”.”

4/9/2017- The Warehouse @ FTC, Fairfield CT

“This show was really fun for a few reasons.  I believe it was a Sunday show and we had Adrian Tramontano from Kung Fu/The Breakfast join us on percussion (which is always a treat).  We did some fun variations on songs including a reggae version of “Nerds”.  Then at the end of the set we switched instruments for a long and fun improv jam.  I’m pretty sure Mike Gantzer from Aqueous joined at one point, although my memory is a bit fuzzy and I could have just completely imagined that.”

7/14/2017- Rochester Public Market, Rochester NY

“This is the infamous rain set.  We got completely rained on.  Like monumentally drenched and just kept playing.  There was no cover over the stage and as the rain started we just said F*** it and kept going.  It will always be one of my favorite memories of this band’s journey.”
