The living room livestream with the wife and newborn was definitely a good time . Made my way to the dance floor around the second set 😂 I hope they do more livestreams I was listening from the other room when i thought I heard GSET then stop and then around and around open. Then to close the 1st I’m pretty sure they started around and around and closed with GSET…..is this accurate lmao I was a feeling pretty good by set break. This west coast tour looks amazing as always but especially that 69 Sunday night show. Hope everyone’s doing good out there and hope to some friends down the line this spring east coast run

69/01/25 Avalon Ballroom, San Francisco, CA Dark Star>St Stephen>William Tell bridge> The Eleven>Lovelight. Dupree's Diamond Blues, Doin' That Rag, Cosmic Charlie, Alligator>Drums>Alligator> Caution>Feed Back>Bid You Goodnight, Filler: Easy Wind, Sing Me Back Home, Next Time You See Me, Take a Letter, Maria, Sittin' on Top of the World, You Ain't Women Enough, Mr. Charlie, Ripple. From the first bars of Dark Star, to the final notes of the Ripple, this show oozed special. The first stretched out in all the right places, the Star particularly devastating in its development. Lovelight a full Pig version. Doin' that Rag a mindblower, Cosmic Charlie slowed a beat. Caution epic. Killer Filler. Reaching deep into the catalog for a couple of gems, and they absolutely slay Easy Wind. What a close to a five show run, infinite magic. Thanks Band and Crew. Praise DSO.

Ahhhh…stoked you guys got the old school bomb dropped on you down there…figured it was gonna show up somewhere on this tour and was quietly hoping maybe up in the NW but glad you guys got ripped to the core on a Sunday night in Napa!! That filler on top of that show just looks way dreamy… 🤘🏼

Sounds ridiculous coming from a guy who just catches the occasional local show here and there, but that HAD to be the show of the tour. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. 😁 Two approximately hour long sets of straight to the veins 1969 vintage Dead, then an intriguing and varied essentially full elective set. Damn. Sing Me Back Home was particularly epic. Venue funky, both good and bad. Had a balcony ticket and there were sizable flat open sections on either side of the seats (I think there were only about 40 seats total) so was able to get loads of space against the balcony rail. Sound up there was tremendous.

Ted is great. Haven’t seen any videos from him from the warfield show yet but here is my video of the Quinn encore:

Ted’s a good dude.

I overheard one usher tell another at Radio City, ‘80; “ they told us you’re going to see people smoking but don’t do anything about it.”
