9 versions, all in '85. 1st set, pre-drums, post-space, encores - you name it. Anyone have a favorite? Or general commentary? I do as I am want to, but I'll refrain for now. Why drop this, Jerry? The Garcia/Kahn treatment clearly drove the muse, but how did it not work with The Dead? Of course just one of hundreds such questions, but that doesn't mean we can't ask 'em aloud...

Hey hey hey! I was so sad when the forums went down because I e met so many cherished people through this platform. Really and truly. The best! Where is that donate button? http://dsoforums.net/donate/donations.html

We all owe Ron a big "Thanks" for all he does for our DSO community. Those few days of darkness should remind us that staying in touch with our friends is so important. Ron told me that the renewal date for the forum's domain name snuck up on him and he appreciates the reminder. I don't know how much it costs to run this forum but in the past there was some method to kick in some funds to help Ron out. Maybe someone can remind us how we can do that. Thank you, Ron. Peace and Love, Doc

Thank you Ron…you help us stay connected to the music and each other!!

Thanks Ron or whoever for getting this back up. Just the other day was reading some 5yr old posts. Brought back lots of memories. Lots of good stuff on here.

Another fabulous launch topic, JohnA. Always partial to 85/11/21 Kaiser, last play. A cherished tape in my collection, lost to a break-in outside Pittsburgh Civic Arena. 11/21 a capsule of 85 goodness, beyond the SBTM, they opened with Big Boy Pete (7 plays) and encored with Walking the Dog (6 plays). The show itself may cloud my judgement of the song. It happens. Praise DSO.

Many thanks. Row, row, row…….

And a big shout-out to Bones for telling the gate keeper to green light my account!

Agreed - Ron is a national treasure here and beyond ❤️

Been on this board since 2005 and am grateful for Ron for providing its pulse. Many fun times and acquaintances started here.
