Rude

Lol. Half the fun of touring is planning and thinking about the options. I need to pipe dream also for my mental health. I live in an escapist fantasy land which is the best place to live

I tried to buy tix but said show not found.

I love those theaters with perfect sound!! Dso has such great sound. Jrad was muddled. It was super loud but bounced around everywhere. Luckily Dso had Cotter on the board. Dso has the best sound by far of any dead group I’ve seen and that’s a huge plus. Cant wait for Birmingham outdoors. There’s no bounce back outdoors. And that’s a loud PA. Getting within 20 feet of that stage is playing with fire. Our king Solomon’s marbles didn’t record Jeff’s guitar because it overloaded the iPhone mic that badly. That’s how loud the bass was. Yes I’m already dreaming of ourdoor shows. It’s 65 and sunny today. Winter has officially been broken. It lost its spirit to keep fighting. It tried to break me New Years in Indy with below zero temps for 2 straight days. But spring has taken hold. I plan several long road trips to help accelerate global warming to kill winter once and for all!!!! Damn u winter even if you kill mosquitos and fleas. Without winter, depression could be wiped off the map!! Everyone try to drive an extra 5 miles a day accelerating wildly and if we work together we can warm the world. Fix up a car from the 60’s that gets really bad gas mileage and drive it everywhere. Turn your lights on and leave em on. We can save Canada if we work together!!! Think of all the jobs that will be created for people having to make sea walls and water pumps. And gr8fulpairs house can become a beach house instead of a lake house!! It’s a win win win win.

Sorry I’m mistaken. Alaska May be winter tour 2020. Perfect time to do Alaska.

I’m looking at this amazing suite at Humphrey’s. 4 beds with a private large balcony overlooking the marina. 1000 sq ft can go 10 deep easy. Someone book it and I’ll go in $100 on a bed.

Heard rumors of Alaska instead of SoCal. I’m hoping these aren’t true. Alaska is a beast of a drive.

Parenthesis are balanced....now

Probably 3 of my 100+ have been anniversary shows. Like mr Vegas said they are the exception rather than the rule. Rob Eaton has a complex mathematical formula to figure setlists. Talk with a nasa scientist and they can give you the formula. I used to know it. (China + Rider -3(last played in x(city) - y(era last played) + z(venue type)))/sqr root(Jerry band)

Juicy set list! Lots of goodness. I don’t recall hearing Dso do an old style Minglewood in any show I’ve seen. How often did the dead do that before new was released. I’m thinking New Minglewood was 76 and new new Minglewood was 78 with the t for Texas.

2nd set is a pure 80s set until that surprising viola. Bet u guys didn’t see that one coming.

Carnegie Mellon is a great resource but they are notoriously inaccurate. I’ve posted 2 from there that I was like they are missing several songs.

Good looking strange setlist. Those are the kinds I like. Wheel, JBG to start lol. The 1st 6 are about the strangest opening I’ve seen in a Dso setlist. They must have been been feeling sporty when they wrote that list.

my crowdsourcing site is set up. $250 donation- I will personally dance with you for 1 set(cannot request which set) $500 gets you a pre show meet and greet(1 alcoholic beverage included up to $10) plus introducing you to friends and 1 set of dancing with me. $1000 donation will get you a custom made t-shirt, $30 to spend at DSO merch plus all the benefits of the $500 package and the excitement of being able to live vicariously through me with daily tour updates(daily tour updates not included in any other packages). (best value) $50 donations will get you a personal thank you on forums $10 will get you a pre-written thank you email Once I hit my goal of $20,000, I will produce a small documentary slideshow of tour and putting music behind it that will be available to all who donated.

Was that part 1 or 2 as the BM shows are the 2nd leg. I’m guessing Midwest will get some late summer love too. And I always say the last year was my banner year never to be beaten, and every year since I 1st saw Dso, I’ve done more shows the following even though I don’t see how I can get to 40 this year....unless...

He said break before redrocks-no connectors. Deadco shoreline should fill the gap as I bet Dso finishes right before those shows, but a week in sanfran ain’t a cheap stint. Likely will stealth camp 100’ up a redwood in one of those suspended tents with a ladder hanging down to save on lodging. I’ve always been curious how I’d do selling merch in a lot. I was thinking officially licensed dancing bear rolling papers. One of my promotional suppliers sent me a special on some organic hemp custom full color papers with organic soy ink. I actually thought that would be a solid Dso merch item as people always need papers to roll cigarettes. Give me a holler Ellie for the link

Don’t we all. My need to plan is creating stress. I have a feeling I’m gonna be selling my deadco Midwest tix as I’m hoping Dso will be in a beautiful western area in late June. If they are doing west coast early summer then they won’t annouhce until they finish west coast winter.

My melted snow had roof pieces in it. Roof cracked from ice and water came in. Have to pit a new roof on this week and roofers cane to scrape the snow off my roof on Friday to minimize the leakage.

I love headhunters. They played it at setbreak at black mountain this year.

On Sirius, tigdh is always a different day than today. Not sure what’s up with that. Maybe tea needs a radio gig. Pretty sure it would pay at least 15k a year, ed and I’m sure u could do a better job.

Prerty sure you need to switch the word important for “fun”. It’s definiyely not the most important thing being done on the planet. It may be the most fun but there are many more important things than shows. Many go to shows to get away from the important things to get a break or escape from the world for a short time.

I agree with MC. Environmental factors are huge. Crowd energy, speaker quality, room to move and friends all contribute to my intake of the music. Things sound better when you are really happy. I think most Dso shows are equally amazing. Rare shows and songs are always exciting. I don’t know if that ‘68 was any “better” than the following ‘91, but that rarity factor elevated that show in my mind. That ‘91 following was in the most epic music venue I’ve ever been in. Out of this world sound. Epic sound quality like with Betty boards elevates our feeling of the music. This year it became clear that ranking shows is futile. Everyone experiences the show differently and has different parts that meant a lot to them personally. Luckily Dso doesn’t really have off nights. An “off night” for me would be a set list I’m not as much a fan of or a place with bad sound or a show with zero room to move or lots of talkers. Mango—it’s greaf that you think every show now becomes a best ever. That means you are happy and the goal of seeing music is happiness. If each show tops the previous it means you are of good mental health.

Happy New Years. I’m psychically dancing with you all tonight. Wish I could see everyone’s smiling face as we ring in the new year. Love u guys. Inspire everyone to get down tonight. Leave it all on the dance floor. This is for the championship. If you aren’t willing to give your all, we will pull you and put in someome wiyh no ticket who wants to hustle. You shouldn’t need any pep talk at this point. This is what you trained for all year. Lets go out and dance your dance and have fun and we will bring it home. You have at least a month of offseason to recover so play through the injuries. If you don’t give your all you will look back on this moment with regret. We only have 1 shot!! Lets dance this one for the gipper!!!

We got the wiz wit on our only time there. And if you are at a hotel, Uber it. It’s going to be cold as shit and parking will be the same as 2 Uber’s. We caught a ride back my 1st show there with someone parked and The parking lots double as nitrous shops. They offered drive thru service. Note never hand the driver a balloon and also note that a car can only hold so many balloons. Also if you see goingbacktowhere getting in an elevator, take the next one. Just trust me there. Security may say just get in the elevator, but don’t do it!!!

Gonna be 10 degrees.

Awesome!! This is your 1st New Years run isn’t it? You should probably get a $6 Uber. Bad area and will be freezing. Ask Gr8fulpair and tea about our 6 block walk in Asheville and you won’t ever contemplate walking in the cold again.
