I've been enjoying this guitar teacher break down the Jerry parts of some live Grateful Dead. My understanding is he isn't really that familiar with the Dead, but he seems to be enjoying it quite a bit. Apologies if someone has already posted this.

Second set was probably 45 minutes. First set was quite long, so I wasn't surprised. My guess is the Dead played too long for their first set that night and realized they needed to do an abridged second set. I thought the setlist in general was odd. I can't recall ever coming across an electric 2 set Dead show with every song played as a standalone song.
Second night at The Hamilton was definitely the better night, and I am not just saying that because it was a Pig-o-rama. I would give it a solid 8/10 and the first night a 6/10. Could've been an even better show if the second set matched the calibur of the first.

How could one not walk down the street and pay $40 to hear DSO do a Dark Star>Two Souls?
My only regret was going up front for the second set. Apparently I have forgotten everything I learned.

The DSO version last night was much more like the The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan version than that Ratdog version. Maybe was even faster than the original Dylan version. It's a great song lyrically. The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan was always one of my favorite Dylan albums. Very much worth a listen if you have never heard it before.

Positive it was Masters of War. I also, wasn't sure if they performed Wonderful World before.
The Masters of War was awesome with Lisa singing it. I would hope DSO adds it to their acoustic repertoire.

*Notable performanceVery much enjoyed the show. It is never the high energy dance party of an electric, but still great stuff and you always get to hear some less common songs. I am sorry for Eaton's family situation. I did enjoy the different mix of songs due to his absence. The Masters of War was a real treat, and the Box of Rain was a very heartfelt rendition from Skip that stood out. I honestly forgot how good of a singer Skip is.Goodnight all-

RIP Herdy🙏

When I discovered DSO and came onto the scene, I knew of Herdy as a staple who had been around for a while. Although he had stepped back a bit from shows at that time, I was able to meet him and get to know him better over the years. It was such a pleasure every time I saw him. An absolutely hilarious guy and always smelled incredibly good for a hippie. A complete teddy bear. So sad to have lost a brother like that. Truly a great loss to the whole DSO community. I saw him briefly at the last Red Rocks show. I wish I had spoken to him longer. I always feel that way when someone goes. If anything, it is a great reminder to appreciate the ones we have in the moments we have them. RIP Herdy. May your cloudy dreams be real.
