Matches Dead Base for the date. Shape a Bust out? Praise DSO.

Love the newly minted Terrapin Station leading the second set. Original show part of the Get Shown the Light Box Set release. Enjoy the snow and stay warm Full Timers. Praise DSO.

After being a mainly 2nd set song, 10 of last 11 Spoonfuls were of first set variety. Opening duo of the second not exactly a China>Rider or Scarlet>Fire. A 4/4 second set probably a rarity for the era. Enjoy the warmth East Coasters. Praise DSO.

Thanks for reminding me to get my tux to the dry cleaners. Praise DSO.

Can't argue with you on that one. Venue buoyed marginal shows in Hampton, although the lists looked fine on paper for 92. During the opening notes of Satisfaction at the Cap Centre I remember thinking how incredibly appropriate that selection was after the performance that evening, 14 songs?, Ugh. Praise DSO.

92/03/05 Hampton Coliseum, Hampton, VA Set One Help on the Way>Slipknot>Franklin's Tower>Same Thing, Jack-A-Roe, Tom Thumb Blues, Let It Grow. Set Two Eyes of the World, Way To Go Home, Estimated Prophet> He's Gone>Drums>Space>The Wheel>I Need A Miracle> So Many Roads>Good Lovin'. E; US Blues The final run for the boys at the spaceship kicks off with this solid list for 92. Same Thing #3 after the reboot, So Many Roads #4 total. On a personal note, I commuted the 3.5 hour one way trip for the two shows and worked both days. Love of Jerry and youth, along with some chemical assistance, an unstoppable mix. Praise DSO.

Word. Praise DSO.

90/10/31 Wembley Stadium, London, England Opened the show with Help-Slip-Frank. Opened the second set with Scarlet-Fire. Jerry's a little worn out, first one I thought of. Praise DSO.

Call Me the Breeze. Praise DSO.

Crazy Fingers>Uncle John's Band, Foolish Heart, Truckin'>Other One, Casey Jones, Scarlet Begonias. Great to see old friends and dance the winter blues away. Random friends were having dinner nearby and heard the music. Cumberland inspired, All Over Now a hoedown and the Big Railroad stomped. Crazy Fingers well executed, Foolish the highlight of the evening as the second set cut down on hard 11:00 curfew. Big fun. Heard Dancing Days from Zep on the drive home and was having a ball. Stay safe West Coasters. Praise DSO.

Have yet to catch a 60's recreation. I missed the DEW for 56 shows back in the Dead days also. Poorly timed touring I suppose. Praise DSO.

BBBBBAAAAMMMM. Praise DSO.

Thanks much Dharmada for informing us here on the East Coast. Hope Bob was able to keep up. Praise DSO.

Pre drums looks especially tasty. Praise DSO.

You are killing it out there Dharmada. First set was one of my early cassettes. Thanks for the update for a rainy East Coast. Enjoy the Warfield, great venue. Praise DSO.

Well done Dharmada. Enjoy the shows. Praise DSO.

Posting the list was part of my show experience In FL, I enjoyed spreading the word. Praise DSO.

In 2003, our band played Bay Center in Dewey, DE after a day of severe thunderstorms. Maybe 50 people showed up. The dance space stretched for days. Praise DSO.

I squeaked in a Big Boss Man at Oakland 87 New Years run. Praise DSO.

Chasing songs I had not seen motivated heading to the next Dead show. Being a Touchhead, plenty of the boys songs were inaccessible, until a band named Dark Star Orchestra came into my live. I spent years with the Dead longing for the songs I slowly realized I was not going to get. Recently, I wondered how many songs in the Dead library were DSO able to add to the frequency chart. Broke out the Dead Base the other day, an amazing 46 songs. Songs ranged from 'common' St. Stephen to 'hardly touched' Golden Road. Atlanta gave me Big Boy Pete and Frederick 2019 yielded Day Tripper, both a complete joy to hear, among the 46. The first Viola at the Ledges was a revelation. Which songs were you thrilled to hear DSO perform, that the Dead did not provide. Feel free to share. Praise DSO.

I doubt Belichick will forget the TD pass to an offensive lineman when you were up 40-10. Praise DSO.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop, Avl Dug. Safe travels home. Praise DSO.
