Solbury Hill
I'm lazy, does anyone know if the band has played this song on an official live release?

DMB has never played it. Only Dave & Friends have. No D+F release, so no.
Edit: Although now that I think about it, I think that the Bonnaroo performance was released - let me check

Does anybody here think D&F butchered Solsbury hill? Or at least did a lousy job of doing it justice? That is just my personal opinion, but I have always prefered the soulful, acoustic and piano driven Peter Gabriel version to the goofy sounding electric laden D&F version. The bonaroo version sounds all techno and sped up like a sound track to an old video game.
I say that because there are many covers that D&F did that I like more than the original version (i.e. Tell Me Something Good, Hey Bulldog, Thank You).
Solsbury Hill is not one of them.

I think they did a good job with it. I still like Peter Gabriel's version a whole lot more. I've seen him in concert a couple of times. He puts on a good show.
"Thank you everybody so much again for tonight. We hope you had a good time with us. We're kind of relaxed and y'all hopefully y'all relaxed too. This is beautiful humidity. We enjoy it and everybody take care of yourselfs. Muaha..." DM

Does Peter Gabriel still tour? I adore his music and would love to see him live.
