The String Cheese Incident :: 4.5.17 ::
Palace Theatre :: St. Paul, MN

Colorado jam act The String Cheese Incident began Spring Tour on Wednesday night at the newly refurbished Palace in St. Paul, Minnesota. The band will soon release a new studio album entitled Believe and they played the title track within the second set and encored with “Sweet Spot” off the LP. SCI opened with the 2017 debut of “So Far From Home” as part of a first set that included a cover of “Mouna Bowa” and a career-spanning collection of originals such as “Let’s Go Outside,” “One Step Closer” and “Joyful Sound.” Wednesday’s second set featured the 2017 debut of “Seventh Step” and concluded with a 30-minute “Outside & Inside” > “Just One Story” > “Way Back Home” > “Just One Story” sequence.

The String Cheese Incident provided a free audio webcast of the tour opener via Mixlr. Cheese provided similar audio streams for most early 2017 shows and it is likely the trend will continue this tour. Photographer Tim McGuire was on hand to capture the action in St. Paul on Wednesday and has shared a gallery of photos:
