It's weird having a free weekend to see some college football. Missed 3 straight weeks(I did record games to watch later) with tour. I did get to see the worst game of the football season-OSU vs MD in person. it was a pro team vs high school team and the pro team knew it and barely played for a 41-7 halftime lead. If they played it would have been 56-0 at the half. When you have 2 kicks blocked and turn it over in your territory, let the opponent run back a 100yd kickoff TD and you still lead 41-7 at the half you know it's bad. There was even an article from an OSU blog saying if OSU plays like this vs penn state they lose. Not many times do you say that when up 41-7 at the half. To tell you a little more about this game, the starting 3/4th string QB didn't throw a completion for 26 minutes and it wasn't because OSU was defending them. This QB couldn't play catch in a front yard. He's so bad that on 2 3rd and 5's vs a top tier run defense, they try to run for it. Needless to say that was a fail. They finished the half with 1 total yard of offense only because they had 10 yards on the last drive. They were at -9yds through 25 minutes. That 1st half was 2:10 long. Brutal. Luckily we got a pair of decent tix for only $50 total and had a DSO show after and boy was that a doozy. I think the band was like let's give the boys who went to that dog of a game the goods tonight.

I love that Smail kid who posts all the setlists too. It's like snail but with an M. SML is not initials but short for the word smail.

The wrigley the seats weren't very confining but we were in the fat cat big seats behind home plate. In Charlotte we danced in the concession area

Your tuning is currently set to understanding tour people. It's a completely different language than kid.

The Taft is where my ear problem started right in front of a speaker in the front. Did you say something?? Talk louder please.

Have a blast tonight peeps!!! Wish I was there!!

Also I wish I could change the post title. It's supposed to say randomness not less. No way to edit title

This ain't their future so they don't care. Plus they are probably partying until 3am like most of us did on our 20s. The key is for you to stop caring. Drop out and tune in, bro...

Yeah......internet. Chuck you've always been the caretaker here.

Turns out I was wrong. There aren't enough cops in hampton https://ibb.co/nLKdC5][/url] hd pic upload https://ibb.co/mqpWzk] hd pic upload

Talked to a guy from the show in his 60s about the contrast of live free or die and the police state in hampton beach. He lit up a joint and said something to the extent you did. Live free our way or die. He said the whole state is a police state.

Wave to the popo. They love hippies there. Having a cardboard sign would probably get you a ticket, serious. The newest biggest building in town is the police station/jail right on the strip with fresh razor wire. They ain't posin'. It's 500 feet or less from the venue and concerts are a good revenue stream for the jail.

Good article about the experiencing self and the remembering self regarding vacations(tour). The remembering self favors new experiences and many different ones. Taking 2 week vacations has much less impact on our mental well being than shorter ones with different experiences. Also says planning well in advance and talking about the experience after will add to that. I guess the planning in advance gives you something to look forward to and remembering can bring back the happy memories. I'm a firm believer in this. Having a trip always planned on the horizon definitely will keep the blues at bay. With nothing to look forward to, life has you by the balls. If nothing else, jubilee is a great constant and provides lasting memories. Also I believe part of the differing experiences involves the different people we interact with. I'm using tour as an example as my travel is nearly exclusively devoted to music as we have no kids, but hanging with varying groups of great people is also key to me and even interchanging friends into different groups like our fun Boulder group creates a different dynamic that varies the experience even more. God forbid I'd have limited vacation like 10 or 15 days a year but if I did I'd be exclusively doing as many 3-4 day weekends as I could do. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/theres-scientific-reason-why-2-145000104.html

I highly recommend the movie Baby Driver. Fantastic soundtrack as music is a key part of the movie and just a bad ass movie in general. It's a theater must see. Don't read anything about it. Just go in blind. It's stylish intense action/suspense. That's all you need to know. Im an ultra rough movie critic and this movie was stellar. I think being a GD fan makes us expect perfection a little more with our art than other people who are ok with disposable art like much of today's pop music.

Heard a rumor that the elusive Tea for Texas was making a 2-show appearance. Note this is just speculation at this point, but if the rumor holds true, it should be a party for the ages. Vip packages are available CID entertainment for the Tea meet and greet. Edit: this is sarcasm so dont kill my Ron for muddying your tour info page

4th of July fireworks seemed to be missing something this year............. I know what it was. They werent playing dead while shooting them.

After deep discussion tonight with the gf, I realized that I'm just creating negativity comparing DSO to deadco and we as fans should be happy we may get more shows now. Most of these emotions of mine in the deadco thread came when talking to people at deadco that to me felt like they were disrespecting DSO or just uniformed and this was my defense mechanism at work. I need to stay on the bright side of the road and avoid needless negative vibes.

I wasn't disrespecting anyone. I was making a joke how people don't realize that any dead type show is not a seated event. When the Iowa city show started there were literally 6 standing. The 4 in our group and 2 other DSO regulars. By the end almost everyone was up letting loose. When I read the quoted part it made me laugh as there's no crowd like a dead crowd and a DSO crowd is definitely a more serious musical crowd than deadco. Not a lot of tourists are at most DSO shows. Definitely the people I meet at DSO shows are a step above crowds you meet at the large shows with massive lot scenes. DSO crowds are much more serious deadheads imo.

Shortly after sunrise, from mid-June through mid-July, rows of lawn chairs begin appearing between the limestone cliffs of Veterans Park. It's the time-honored method for reserving a prime spot for a great evening of entertainment! Get your chairs ready for our 51st season of admission-free summer concerts, music and theater, and join us a Springfield tradition - The Summer Arts Festival! Get those chairs ready people for a great night of sitting and knee slappin'. I'm gonna sit my ass off at this show. Let me know where everyone is going to sit during the show so we can all sit our butts off together......

Yes it's his 1st and mine as well. We can't wait. Love new experiences!!!! Fuck things. Give me memories!!

Sorry for your loss. The music will help ease your soul. Amd on a bright note, the weather looks epic. Clear skies with Mid-high 60s at showtime and finishing at around 60 degrees. Can't ask for more perfect conditions for an outdoor show.

Did you tell her she's prob got a 15-20% chance of one? But then again thats why we keep coming back. These current pop artists and even solid artists from the 70s and 80s have the same setlist night after night. I've wanted to see the pixies for years but was looking at their setlists night after night and are identical except for a 1-2 songs. How could u follow them. But the good news is I just want to see them once. I've been in my deadhead type bubble for a while. Pretty much dead or panic is all I've seen for 3 years. It's my safe space. I'm a dead snowflake. Seeing van Morrison in September may be strange. His music has a definite dance groove similar in ways to the dead's beat, but man I don't want 50 people videoing me dancing. That's not an issue at any GD related show but do that where half the people will have their phones out and I'm afraid I'll become a meme.

I never used the word fart until at prob 21 yrs old. Always hated that word. Am I super weird.

So thought this would be a good thread for random thoughts or things that dont fit in a category, i.e. Seinfeld like randomness. So was listening to some pop station today, and some rapper came on in the middle of the song. I didnt comprehend why it was needed but it seems to be a trend where you have as many people credited as you can. So......it reminded me of this SNL digital short which was brilliant. Keenan Thompson is so funny in it. Its short so watch it.
