  2. Salvage Station, Asheville 6/18

    in Reviews

    Posted

    Im at a place where I’m less enthused by 1976-1978 setlists, so when I arrived & saw the set up and the Travis bean, I was a little bit let down (while also absolutely loving that Travis Bean tone, FYI). 
     

    I decided to make the most of it, trying to place the show. When I head the Bertha>good lovin, I knew it wasn’t 76.

     

    When the three slow songs happened in the first set, I realized it had to be 1978. Why they ever needed three slow songs back to back, I don’t know, but DSO played them like consummate professionals. 
     

    Eaton won me over with his slide guitar all night, and Barraco was playing really well. At set break I figured out it was 9/16/78, and wondered how the second set would actually go.

     

    it went fantastic! The energy grew and bounced between a great crowd and the band and it is in those moments I felt some lift off. 
     

    it’s a reminder to me: no matter my headspace or what the set list looks like:  when the band is playing well, it doesn’t matter what the set list looks like. I had a blast in Asheville!


     

    Thanks DSO!

  3. Jubilee night 1 23

    Listen to the stagger Lee on the original show 2/7/1979, then compare it to the stagger lee a week before. I’ve never heard Garcia so slow before or after. 


    DSO did a fantastic job, but the set list they played was:

     

    Set 1: Don't Ease Me In ; Mama Tried > Mexicali Blues ; Jack-a-Roe ; Looks Like Rain ; They Love Each Other ; New Minglewood Blues ; Stagger Lee ; I Need A Miracle > Bertha

    Set 2: Scarlet Begonias > Fire On The Mountain ; Dancing In The Street > drums > Black Peter > Good Lovin'

    Encore: U.S. Blues

    Filler: Love the One You're With

  4. Dark Star Jubilee 2023

    I just want to say thanks to the band, Tim Walther productions, and everyone of you I met up with-I had a spectacular weekend, one of my favorite Jubilees yet. The shows each night were perfect, the crowd was perfect, and that Waffle House in Jeffersonville, Ohio on the way back home to KY was perfect (as always-its the standard by which all WH should be judged).

    As long as Jubilee's continue, and as long as I can, I'll spend my memorial day weekend there. Thank you!

    I’m getting a bit old to be sleeping on the ground, so we got an Airbnb. We still need a parking pass for day trippers. Eventbrite was a bit confusing. I’m wondering if we need a separate $25 parking pass for each day? Anyone know?

     

    thanks

    My understanding is that if you are parking by day and staying elsewhere at night you do need to purchase the $25 car camping pass in addition to your regular ticket

    It’s outdoor with a flat dance area. That’s all you need!! I’d love to do this weekend but she got freaking denied on her PTO request. Denied… Its gonna require an eventual talk with the boss saying this is how we deal with life stressors. Shows. If we get denied then it may not be the right job. On that note that would have been the 1st of 4 straight weekends out of town so we didn’t throw down the gauntlet 

    After I got off tour in 2001, I got married, had 3 babies, worked full time while full time getting undergraduate & graduate degrees and we had no family for 600 miles. Then as we worked our way into better jobs, we had many of the same experiences of no money or no time off that was allowed. All that to say: I totally get it. Even now, though I have more free time and flexibility,  with my oldest about 20 & in college, my 14 & 16 year old are happy and healthy and still in school & participate in stuff that keeps us really busy.

     

    But I wish you luck on her time off for your mental health excursions, because trust me- I know how helpful they are

    When I was touring full time, Summer 2001 was my only time I really caught SCI. The summer tour tangled a bit with Phil's tour and I coordinated a few of their dates in the West/Midwest in the midst of Phil tour to make traveling easier. The SCI shows in Colorado & midwest in Summer 2001 were fun-the audience was really young and different than Phil tour, and we were some of the only vendors for many of those shows-not too unlike DSO shows.

    Accuweather just released the Jubilee forecast. 

    Friday 83/56 (hot day 65% rain)

    sat 81/49 cooler night 50% rain 

    Sun 73/49 perfect finishing weather. 
     

    the good news with this finalized forecast is it will be 80 all week before so there should be no mud 

    Hope the Accuweather Jubilee prophecy comes true cause this has been the coldest spring I remember as a whole in quite some time 

  21. Phish - do you like them?

    I was a teenager listening to the Grateful Dead in the early 90s, and a friend suggested I might like Phish, since I liked “alternative” music and the Grateful Dead. I bought “A Live One”, and got some live shows on tape, like 7/25/92. 
     

    I liked it causally, but the whole humor in music thing doesn’t do it for me, so if you play me guitar solos and jams, I’d prefer that. 
     

    After the 1998 Further Festival/ The Other Ones tour ended in shoreline, I did a smattering of Phish summer tour dates making my way back east. Haven’t gone to a show since 

     

    pretty much ambivalent but occasionally listen to select concert jams of theirs from 1992-1998
