Fans of the Dave Matthews Band must be feeling a sense of relief this week. The band were considering calling it quits up after the death of their bandmate, saxophonist LeRoi Moore, who died in an RV accident last August. Instead, they rebounded, and teamed up with Fuse to gift their fans with a live broadcast of their June 1 gig at Beacon Theater (watch the entire thing below). The concert stretched to nearly 3 hours, and though Matthews was fighting a cold, the band was otherwise in peak condition. Fuse has been broadcasting a new band bio, “Dave Matthews Band: The Road To Big Whiskey,” in four parts: the final installment airs tonight at 8 pm Eastern. The band’s triumphant new studio album, Big Whisky and the Groogrux King, their first since 2005’s Stand Up, is out now.

Here’s the setlist for the Beacon show:

“Funny the Way It Is”

“Alligator Pie”

“Spaceman”

“Cornbread”

“Seven”

“Out of My Hands”

“Why I Am”
