  1. A few of my favorite Brent songs are Blow Away, We Can Run (sorry to have missed the DSO Newport version) and Take You Home (of course outta space with a lilting Jerry intro). He did lay down some nice keyboard banter in the 79-81 Shakedown Street jams.

  2. Well, I'd say you got a damn good show opening with Meet Me at The Creek! That was a show closer for several years. He's been doing some 200 shows a year since like 2012 and moving in all kinds of directions, but now, I mean now his band is at a whole nother level. The upcoming threesome at the Ryman is streaming free on nugs. I've also heard he's got a couple hundred songs that will be unleashed in the coming years. 

  3. Possibly waiting on ticket sales for the shows currently scheduled before adding to their commitments?

    Nothing has sold out and there are a lot of exceptional cover bands throughout the nation now.

    Also, if you look at the number counts on each of the posts here, there isn't as much action as there used to be.

    The Covid experiment may have deep reaching tentacles in the subconscious that could be playing out in ways we never saw coming, bands and audiences alike.

    Hopefully tomorrow everything is snatched up!

  4. Freakscene: The Story of Dinosaur Jr. being released in theaters May 31st. I've never thought about seeing them although the synopsis says they preceded the grunge scene and after reading of their recent show in Nashville here on the forums has got me interested.

  5. That 6/30/84 has a raggy audience video with sbd (voodoonola) on YouTube. It's nice to see the outdoor facility. I've enjoyed that taped for years thinking it was an indoor show 🤔

    As for the 85 Spectrum shows, that was the end of the tour but they laid out some gems in that three night run, esp 4/8/85. Happy GD birthday FB, won't see you at Buckeye but maybe down the road sometime.

  6. Interesting that they played Richmond right before Richmond.  This has always been my go to morning dew, echos rippling out of a typically astounding 85 space.

  7. The space had a spanish jam approach then went industrial before quieting up for the first notes of DMF. It's refreshing when Help Slip goes into Franklins and a stand alone Fantasy, not to mention the power of Days Between

  8. Respectful and kind of the band to spread the shows for those outside USA. I'm sure this will sellout immediately as there are lots of Deadheads that contribute to archives and sugarmegs from Europe. I sent a few JGB 1987 Stone master tapes to a Sir Mick for him to transfer to digital and upload. the US gets it share of shows. Looking forward to tonight's event at Ovation (although the new place in Cincy, James Brady ICON music center is a terrible venue), makes me leery of new venues. James Brady ICON music center is set up for the promoters and the bands and how to extract as much $$ out of the goers. We'll see what Newport has to offer with it's new venue 🤞. Hoping to get a ticket at the door tonight🤞

  9. You're probably right. Last time I was there was in 87 and it was just another stop on the road of seeing shows, Telluride, Tempe and Park West lay ahead. I'm sure they've decked it out now and like you pointed out where are the other major musts? Ledges?

  10. IMHO RR is overrated, where at the Frost you have grass tiers while at RR it's just rock.  it was nice to kick off the shoes on a beautiful May day in Palo Alto and dance on grass. Of course, you would have to be in line early to get the front tiers and interactions with the band, The tiers are also only about 10 inches up each one where as at RR the tiers are like 2 feet up each level. I wouldn't sweat missing RR. I've been wondering and searching as to when Stanford University was going to start using the amphitheater again and it looks like Bobby and Mickey are finally getting through. I think it would be the best place for DSO to play, nice and small yet has an upper grass level to sell some tickets to make it worth the bands visit. And, yes, it would be best with a 2pm show time.

  11. "Saw Bobby last night in Nashville Indiana in a venue the size of a high school orchestra hall. Was pretty awesome. He was chatty and engaging, was a real good energy all night."

     

    You definitely got in a good show.. I knew he was coming there as that's where we're seeing Emmylou, but I forgot it was this weekend. There is a Columbus show coming up on Wed. but it won't be as intimate as the Brown County Music center.

    Also, big news, Bob Weir and Mickey Hart are playing The Frost Amphitheater on Sunday May 1st! So glad they're opening up shows again at that supreme venue, kudos to Weir!

    Glad you got in a good show Duck
