  1. 2 nights of THE BROTHERS at msg. I wish this band played together more often and maybe they will. Warren Hayes is the man as he did mostly all the signing (chuck leavell stepped in a few songs on piano and sang) but Warren took the lead solo on some of the songs and hammered them, the next night Derek took the solos which was super cool they took turns. These two guys absolutely tore the garden open. Derek is an absolute beast. And one of the greatest guitar players I’ve ever seen. There’s a video of him shredding whipping post and his string breaks and just keeps hammering the song. They did 17 minute Elizabeth reed night one which my highlights soulshine being annother and they only repeated the songs they basically had to play only doing two nights. Blue sky, whipping post, dreams , and when they played nobody left to run with anymore they had a tribute screen of all the Allman brothers band members, they all got big cheers Duane and of course Gregg but Dickey got a really big cheer people still hurting from that loss. And all crew and managers and then they got our boy PHIL in there and the crowd went wild it was a huge roar for him. Very special stuff. And Jaimoe came out both nights to play a few tunes but had 2 drummers helping along Joe Russo being one of them. Jaimoe said a few words, which was cool to hear a legend and original member say how much he loved being at the garden and doing shows. Crowd was super quiet and respectful and then cheered like crazy, the man still truckin at 80, I saw him for his 80th bday with Friends of the brothers and he’s still got some gas in the tank. Excellent heartwarming shows. two nights wasn’t enough

    JITS 2025 - Night #4

    Once in awhile you say to yourself that was THE best show that you’ve EVER seen or ONE of the best shows you’ve ever seen. but soon you catch yourself saying it a lot lmao that being said, the second set of the final show of the week was up there with one of the best I’ve ever seen. morning dew to start that monster double decker sandwich was something I needed to experience PITB>UJB>umbroken>d/s>imagine instrumental with the crowd singing some of it >last time >DARK STAR>PITB>UJB. This was totally amazing. Dark star was all ready sending me into orbit when we got the pitb reprise and ujb reprise. You don’t want these nights to end but they have to. the whole week in Jamaica is just amazing and I really loved the matinee. Wasn’t sure it was gonna be topped. Something about a daytime show that warms your bones differently. But that last set was something I’ll cherish for quite sometime, especially as I sit here in NY in the snow thinking about my sunsoaked week, of great people, beautiful weather and music that makes me happy beyond words. They are second to none when it comes to re creating the Grateful Dead music and the vibes that come with it . Ending with ripple my cup was beyond full. Dark star thank you once again, much love, and thank you Melvin and JGB!
  7. I Love catching these 60s shows. Psychedelic and loved it. Super fun!! And ooh happy thanksgiving to all you crazy people out there who are extended family
  8. Very special show for me and my family. My wife’s and sons first time here and my 8 month old first show. Headphones for him and a blanket and he was very content watching the kids run and play and dancing with his mom and dad. What beautiful night on the water, couldn’t have asked for anything more. short first set but I said to my wife earlier I wanna hear Mississippi tonight so that was cool, and what a beautiful birdsong. when the lights go down my boy was loving the lights and music still. He made it to Truckin and then we had to keep truckin, he was toast. thank you dso for making this special for us. Great mini road trip for the fam as we headed to Mass for treehouse brewery. See you guys in the fall!!!
  9. When you get these kinda shoes you have to appreciate it. Keep on growing is always good to catch. Foolish heart had a great groove to it but i really liked the unusual scarlet>gdtrfb. It was a great transition and unexpected when you’re waiting for those fotm chords coming in. This was My first time here as well as my 8 month old!!!! This was his second show after we hit up Thomson’s point in Maine. i really like this venue. Has the black mountain vibe a little…but the 4 beer limit is a little absurd lmao
  10. I understand the logistics of this but try to start south at the cap and then head up north. Been a long time bro but I’ll most likely be in Boston or New Haven.
  11. When DSO put this on the tour schedule i was excited. I saw Billy and the kids last summer at the Pier and it was great. The view is insane and if you get a day like Sunday there’s nothing like it. but other than that, unfortunately there hasn’t been any reason to go there for any music. DSO hasn’t been to the city in years, maybe since coney island 6 years ago. Definitely haven’t been to Manhattan in 8 or 9 years. It’s falling apart again in this city but it’s nice to have a show in your backyard. So the day was perfect, sun shining, a cool breeze and Alotta smiles. I love how the guys in the band talk about playing at home. I heard some reminiscing of club wetlands !!! Minglewood and Row Jimmy first set love. Sugaree.. thank you dso for everything as always, it means the world to all of us
  12. Hey everyone! Anyone have any info on this place. Looks super bougie. Is it an outdoor show? I wanna take the little guy. Thanks!
  13. What great show, finally some good weather around here. Barraco said at the beginning of the show the front row on stage was at this show!! The stone pony is cool for obvious reasons but it always gets super packed. A lot of families are down the shore vacationing and they go there regardless of who’s playing to hang. show was incredible. Start to finish everything was perfect. Haven’t seen the boys since the spring so to have a perfect show on beautiful NJ night was awesome. Weather in the northeast has been brutally humid and gross all summer. Loser is a song that I’ve loved since I got on the bus, but when Jeff gives it that little solo extra extension it warms my heart. Kind of like 7/7/89 off the top of my head. thank you dso as always, see you soon back in NY
  14. No word on any of the rooms yet? Usually this happens before the summer.
  15. Late night on the east coast sometimes I would watch pac 12 or wcc college hoops if he was broadcasting just to hear him say the funniest and wildest shit. He always peppered in some dead lyrics, something about being on tour or just talk about Jerry or the band. during Covid one of the games they had cardboard cutouts of people in the stands. He made sure there was a Jerry cardboard figure behind him. His recent special on Sportscenter is called “Luckiest man Alive” and it was a really good. very special to the dead community, NBA and college basketball world. Alotta love poured out for him today. RIP Bill
  16. Yea rude I was waiting for DSO to show up in this article. I was getting a little annoyed at first. On a side note if anyone gets a chance to see Sam grisman project it’s def worth going. Those Garcia/grisman songs are being done very well by that young man and his crew. I caught a show last year and I was so happy went….Catfish John and hobo song were unbelievably good.

  18. Hahaha…You two are great. I miss you guys and Eventho I can’t see you two that much or as much as I used to, I can see you and hear you going at it through here which still makes me laugh. I’m looking forward to bringing my son to a show. Not sure what the outcome will be at such a young age but I’ll figure it out. on that note I was also hoping for red rocks this summer cause Europe is out for me.
  19. This was a show that has a beautiful flow and setlist… of course dso played it to perfection.Flawless show…thanks DSO for a real good time. I’m really diggin this filler. I liked it last week on the stream but seeing it live was even better, high energy closer
  20. One of the best electives I’ve ever seen. The mashup of The band, the Beatles , Dylan was awesome. band was flowing all night from help slip franklins. Loser was a highlight through masterpiece and I always always love Jack a roe. After GSET I said what a great first set to get a fireeeeee tangled. Hey Jude to playin reprise second set highlight. Thank you dso. 3/23/74 tonight????????
  21. Encore: US blues F: Take a letter Maria I think barraco said a NRPS song. It was a gem Love these streams, love even more 2 shows next week. NJ, NJ here I come
  22. Anyone have trouble with the first set stream? I missed a lot of the first set with technical difficulties anyways second set was without any troubles and awesome but loved the encore and fillers. ready to stream again tonight
  23. The living room livestream with the wife and newborn was definitely a good time . Made my way to the dance floor around the second set 😂 I hope they do more livestreams I was listening from the other room when i thought I heard GSET then stop and then around and around open. Then to close the 1st I’m pretty sure they started around and around and closed with GSET…..is this accurate lmao I was a feeling pretty good by set break. This west coast tour looks amazing as always but especially that 69 Sunday night show. Hope everyone’s doing good out there and hope to some friends down the line this spring east coast run
