  1. DSO and crew simply knocked it outta the park on one of the best stages!  More importantly, it was clear to me that they were having the time of their lives up there!  Just Wow.  So happy for the DSO family - they deserve only the best.  It’s been a LONG winding road for them and their families.

     

    So kind to kick down a free webcast and the goosebumps started almost immediately! I obviously knew what they were going to play but I still found myself surprised as they would go from song to song.  It was just so wonderfully produced and the sound was literally dynamite!

     

    The highlight of many highlights for me was the DSO family Drums!  So cool to see  that stage brimming with so much energy and love.  It made me miss my DSO family more than a little but I kept coming back to how cool it must be for the band and crew to have that experience.  I imagine it was a ton of hard work to pull it off but it’s always been a labor of love.  

     

    DSO is a world-class band with a world-class crew - hands down!  An amazing performance at an amazing place in front of a sold-out crowd.  So happy for everyone who got to see the magic unfold.

    Sounds great! Any guess what they'll play tomorrow night?

    I’m sure it’s all gonna be gravy.  I wonder if they'll feel compelled to ‘finish’ the Dark Star - that might provide some insight.

     

    Go out and get it tonight !

    Notes

    First set From Robertson Gym, UC Santa Barbara on 1977-02-27. Show was truncated due to promoter LANCE STERLING not verifying the city curfew limits and signing a contract with DSO that says band can play till 11:00. The band found out five minutes before 2nd set start time that the show had to be over by 10:00.

    The local radio station says:  “The Grateful Dead and Company - together again!  Playing all their hits from the last 50 years!  Don’t miss this groovy experience!”

  8. 5/8 was one of the great shows in GD history - DUH!  Not quite at the top of my list BUT it was soooo great to have such a high quality recording of a high quality show as I was cutting my teeth on this music.  I was obsessed with Cornell and explored just about every nook and cranny of it.  Very fond days of cranking up this show in the lot, on the beach, in the car, on my walkman - everywhere.  It was many, many fans crown jewel tape of the GD!

    Also, it’s worth noting, that with the threat of oncoming thunderstorms, the band played whatever they liked. They did not recreate a show. Does anyone know how often this happens?

    Pretty often actually - I’d say about every 3rd show.  

     

    I was convinced it was a 73 show but that playin sandwich to close the 1st set had me scratching my head.  

     

    The music this weekend was just soooo good.  It’s only rival was the incredible people I got to share it with
