Did you meet his youngest birthed deadhead. His oldest is at college. Both are GD savants. He did well as a papa.
Yes, I met the young samauri Duck and saw the glimmer in his eye.

Boy am I glad I made the trip. Aretha space was powerful stuff. Both shows knocked it out of the park, my boy fell in love with the mountains. I got to put a few more faces to names in here which is always awesome. Next time I get down that way without the kids I’m gonna try to be more social pre/post show, although I prefer to deal with the popo as little as possible. 😆😂
Good to meet you brother. Glad you made it down, and as is customary round these parts, you're welcome back any time. Hurry up and stay a while. See ya next year, if not before.

Yea, that whole second set was definitely not for rookies. Bring it, or get it.

Rained right up til about 30 before show time, cleared and was once again, just exactly perfect. Maybe few degrees cooler. Seemed a good bit more peeps for Sat nite. I loved the construction of this set list. First set HSF then cowboy'd up from opening notes of a blazing Cumberland. Second set just an absolute beast. Good Lord from the jack opener, to an awesome funky expressway, scarlet fire, and from space forward it was an endurance test. Stellar performance by the band, matched a dance party that could've lit a small City with it's energy generation. Time with great friends makes me wish this never ended, but makes next time that much sweeter.

All’s well that ends well !
You'd worked you way up to it, so weren't all that surprised. We needed to be reeled in a bit.

Really fun dance party at our usual spot stage left where the fescue is abundant and forgiving. Weather was just exactly perfect this night with clear skies and a crescent moon. First set was fun albeit a bit 87 list boilerplate and took off at PeggyO for me. Really strong and sort of unusual 3 song first set closers. The second set smoked from start to finish. After the killer fillers I had nothing left to give but to enjoy warm fellowship with world class people before, during and after. Many thanks to this hard working band and it's crew who make this happen. You bring a lot of diverse people from all over together and offer them the chance to experience bliss together. That's fairly special.

Does Uber run out here?
Where can we get muscle milk and sushi?
We need to eat dinner by 4pm?
What time is check-in?
What time is check-out?
What is the actual showtime?
Is there Re-Entry?
Where is the smoking section?
Does the venue have a coat-check?
Where's my ticket?
So Ed, what is it again that you actually do for a living?
Who's sleeping with Sunny?
Is that a blood splatter on the wall?
Do these shorts make my ass look fat?

I was having a fantastic dream last night but when the dream took a turn, I awoke abruptly.
So in my dream, I was hanging with some friends on the front row just behind the “orchestra” seats. Sweet spot right ? We had all the space to hang and dance. The show opens with Bertha -> Don’t Ease Me in, Everybody’s dancing and having a blast. The music is sounding good. They start playing Lost Sailor and with all this room, I was loving the space to twirl and spin and pas deuce beurre. But then the band went into Victim or the Crime. That is when I stopped dreaming and abruptly awoke. I guess that scared me. 😂
YIKES!

Apple is out to take over the world, and so is Google, and I think Google is winning, so pretty soon I'll own all you iPhone pfuckers.

Relisten.net actually works on my iphone now. For months I had to click the view on archive.org button to play shows from my phone.
Hmm but now it only gives 1 source and it’s not formatted right. All the text is on top of each other. Weird
Well because I'm getting the same thing, in addition to all the other things you blame on it, you can now blame my Android phone for this problem...

Just in case ya didn't know. Red Rocks show now up on the Archive and also complete show, including Keller opener is up on YouTube. From the nugs cast, excellent quality. What a grate job DSO did, all around!

Just so we have a spot in reviews for reviews of this outstanding show.
Everyone knows this is a recreation of 7-8-78, also played at red rocks, surely also sold out, also featuring Donna Jean! The fillers we're box and China Rider (which smoked). Everything tonight was just exactly perfect! Every band member was on fire, the crew did a killer job setting everything up, the family drums segment was a carribean delight. Estimated other one eyes was the fucking goods! Really appreciated my dance partners tonight, they kept me churning when the tank was low. Rob E you were right, the sound on row 25 was awesome. So happy for the band and this milestone, and grateful to have experienced it! ♥️

I would speculate 2 things. 1. Hauling taping gear to Jamaica sucks. 2. Too epic to fool around with taping gear.

An i seriously doubt any of you fuckers thought of me for even a second while devoiring that complex and flavor bursting bounty of hot, warm goodness. Oh well, I forgive you. I would not place upon you a burden I would not carry myself. 😊

I haven't heard anyone mention Disco Pizza. Did any get a slice of that heaven in their depleted mouths? Where they even there? Be surprised if not. Cause Disco Pizza and DSO go together like peas and carrots.

Mojo, I'm not mad at you for not liking that setlist, altho puzzled that you say 71- is peak stuff, but 69 is another band. I am aware of the sound and tempo changes between said years. I take issue with 2 things. 1. Pig was an average bluesman.... Bro, seriously. 2. Why can't you just say you didn't like the setlist instead of dispariging the band along with your statement. To say they sucked the energy out, that there were very few smiling faces, that Rob can't construct an elective setlist. I happen to be a fanatic of 66-72 and will see 30 DSO shows before I get a show that sweet. I'll go to 21 more just banking on getting that pre70 treasure (cause I had one 9 shows ago). I don't like the way you talk about the band, but I respect your opinion on the music.

Ladies and Gentlemen: The Grateful Dead!

It’s got just about everything you need
Today, however, is the anniversary of the greatest live performance the GD ever did IMHO, 4-29-71. It has EVERYTHING you need. ❤️❤️❤️

Take the 50% Tix sold, add 40% typical head procrastinators, curtains open, near full house. We got there about 7:35 and there was like 150 people there, no line outside at all. There is a price to pay for procrastinating the pregame. Or was it prolooooonging the pregame?? 🤣

Just a killer barn burning 78 with highlights being obviously the Peggy O. The big river, dancin, other one, and black Peter rang my fucking bell. A shirt wringer if I ever had one. Thanks to dso, crew, and good friends for an incredibly memorable run. Very sad it's over. 😥

Damn, church was good Tonite. We got the gospel good love tonight in Charleston. Thank you DSO for this JGB run that has been by far the most memorable run with good people I can remember. I feel like I need to be baptized in a river.

Sure was fun dancing with all you fuckers! Y'all are damn good, despite what the general public has to say about you.
