It's been... 2 Years 3 Months & 1 Day Since Dark Star Orchestra has played Penn's Peak. The venue and fans desperately miss you! Please find it in your hearts to come back around. “I love Penn’s Peak. It’s got one of the best vibes of all the places that we play,” he said. “It’s a beautiful place just to start with – all that wood, and that big room. The energy in that place is just like second to none; especially the night before Thanksgiving when everybody’s home and ready to have a good time. It’s a wonderful tradition.” ~Jeff Mattson 2015

Nice work gumshoe! https://archive.org/details/dso2019-09-26.akg568eb.sos.ford.sbeok.flac16

Came across some killer Legion of Mary April 9, 1975 (Early Show) Bottom Line New York City, NY. Martin Fierro was on saxophone who I wasn't too familiar with. His Wikileaks said he played with Dark Star Orchestra before. It says he died in 2008 so it must have been DSO's earlier days. Does anybody know of any shows they played with him? Also are there any other sax players that toured or played with DSO? I'd love to catch a Without a Net recreation some time! Also that LoM show was a Betty board...some choice stuff

They should have just made this a Netflix series. Like 10 episodes. That way you could have gone through the progression of Jerry/the band. How do they play on condensing 30+ years of touring into a 2-3 hour movie. Plus if you're changing out band members that will also need 15-20mins of setup/explanation. Is Bobby gonna be in the movie with makeup on to make him look 19 again?? or do they just go with a whole cast of actors. If so, they're gonna look funny trying to play instruments and lip singing. I think this is gonna be a hack job

I wonder if he's gonna chop his finger off! #MethodActor

Brit Floyd puts on one helluva show. But if you go prepared to be in your seat at a theater the whole time. It's weird not being up and dancing. A few tunes you can get up but it's like a hockey game, if you're standing the people behind you kind of frown upon it. https://www.britfloyd.com/tour-dates/269-2022-north-america

31...PA redneck, what no NASCAR questions? Luv that song! I'd love to spit some beech nut in that dude's eyes 'Cause a country boy can survive

I caught the some of the Oakland show this AM on the GD channel. The Masterpiece/West L.A. Fadeaway was pretty hot. I think the one I heard yesterday had the NFA clap from the audiance that seemed to last 15 mins.! I was thinking to myself, that had to be one of the longest NFA crowd chants out there. I wonder if anyone knows the longest documented NFA crowd chant

Scarlet>Fire.... unless the show was in Colorado

Have fun with Ardmore music hall. In order to get in you need a stool sample, you finger printed, need to identify your pronoun, need proof of vaccination and a valid ID matching your vaccine card (which I've read is racist), & must where a muzzle "between bites of food and sips (or gulps) of drinks" I guess they throw you in a pit or something if they catch you with your mask down breathing air in between your gulps. I would imagine they do contract tracing there as well all for you own safety of course. Vaccinated or not vaccinated I don't feel like spending my hard earned money on businesses like that. I feel bad for the bands that play there who I'd like to support and the smaller crowds they might play in front of because of their policies. I don't think it's a sustainable business model on their part but whatever. I've been to many shows there in the past but no thanks unless they change their ways

Wow, don't know what to think of this. I would imagine it will be cool either way but really Jonah Hill??? I mean Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison was good, Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash was on point. But Jonah Hill as Jerry?? I just don't see how that works on any level. We'll see but he definitely wouldn't be my first choice https://variety.com/2021/film/news/martin-scorsese-grateful-dead-biopic-jonah-hill-1235115213/

Savage, High Energy, HIGH ENERGY, Hi enERgy, Hi EnErGy. Got to stand on the rail in front of 8 JBL 4 foot tall speakers for 4 hours while DSO just shredded the Pennsylvania night. I had a weird thought about the deer I'd be hunting in the mountains in a couple months. They had to hear the show from there resting spots up on the mountain. I'm wondering what all the wildlife is thinking up on the mountain when the band is just laying down a killer setlist. Had an awesome time. I love how the temperature slowly dropped during the entire show. The start of the show it was sunny and 85. The end of the show breezy and 65. Awesome elective set, hopefully the band will make this a yearly stop. I would vote for a monthly stop but I realize they gotta spread the love all over the country, so once a year is reasonable. Once again the best Dark Star show I've ever seen which is what I say after every show.

Got the day off. Gonna be out fishing on the lake in the AM, then a nice pregame grill out. I'm stoked gonna be a killer show!

I missed DSO had to work Thurs./Fri. I did however make it up to the Peach Festival Sunday. I was able to score a free VIP ticket from a friend. I ended up buying them Dark Star's show from the Peach as a thank you. I listened to some of it online but he said it was killer and the band was so happy to be in front of a crowd. I can attest, there were A LOT of people there on Sun. The seats were pretty filled and the Lawn was packed. It was very refreshing to see everyone having such a great time singing, dancing, and sharing the good vibes. It was my 1st time at the Peach Festival and between the camping, onsite water park, 3 stages, loads of vendors...they were setup pretty good to handle a large crowd.

The Grateful Dead played the Spectrum 53 times, by far the most of any musical act. Live albums recorded here include Dick's Picks Volume 36, Road Trips Volume 4 Number 4, Road Trips Full Show: Spectrum 11/5/79, and Road Trips Full Show: Spectrum 11/6/79. And although Pearl Jam was officially the last show at the Spectrum "The Dead" with Warren Haynes did a proud Farewell (2) show appearance there in May of 2009 which included a killer Sampson and Delilah to end their final show there.

Also was at the rain show. If I recall Rob B. keyboard was shorting out with all the water that was dumping on it. Haven't seen DSO in like a year and a half. Way too long. Thanks for the PA stop, very much looking forward to this

"Bertha" was a giant industrial floor fan with no grill cover that was so powerful it would move across the room in the GD's studio/office in San Rafeal

It would be irresponsible of me to not bring up any of the Penn's Peak shows. They all roll into one for me, but the boys had us in a frenzy this night. Just look at the energy coming from the sold out crowd. Video shows about 1/10 of the crowd. 2nd Set: Why Don't We Do It In The Road? ; Lost Sailor > Saint Of Circumstance > Terrapin Station > Dark Star > dums > space > Hey Jude > Throwing Stones > Shakedown Street Shakedown-->

Well if I'm a puppet and and a pawn, then you're a cantaloupe or half eggplant. What I am is a free thinker. You can try to put whatever label you want on me. All I wanted to do was respond to this thread because I heard a lot of hate coming from a couple people for a while. I'm not on any sides and I don't appreciate being labelled anything. If you're so well informed do you know anything about things like The American Eugenics Society? Read up on people like Francis Galton and Margaret Sanger. There are evil people in this world. Evil people who want to get rid of a lot of us useless eaters who they think are inferior to them. And these people have the wealth and contacts to do it. If I saw someone breaking into my neighbors house looking to rob or kill them I'd let them know, sound the alarm if you will. Anything you don't feel like researching or are afraid to admit is happening you just keep calling "conspiracy theories" bury your head in the sand and hope it goes away. Where do you think this ends? We're talking covid passports, cashless society, mandatory vaccines, armed A.I. robots patrolling the streets, people getting arrested for not wearing a mask. Who wants to live like that? It's the worst Sci-Fi movie on steroids. Open you eyes man, it's already happening all across the world in Europe, Australia right now, and it's not by accident. Look into the people who made all these decisions. Bilderberg Group, World Economic Forum (Davos Group), look into Event 201, Crimson Contagion, Operation Lockstep, and Disease X drill. All these things that happen. They've not been made up, & they're not "conspiracy theories". They are Facts. I deal in facts. And just because Bill Gates wears a pink sweater and tells us he loves us doesn't make him a good person. Ever ask yourself why a retired computer geek is so worried about injecting every person on the planet with a shot? Don't take my word for it, I suggest everyone do their own research. I doubt you will though. It's a lot easier to just stick with name calling from your high horse. But I challenge you to call me a liar that the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation hasn't given millions of funding to the WHO, CDC, NIH. Or how Gate's dad and IBM worked with the Nazis to help facilitate genocide through punch cards. These are not good people. When I see bad things happening around me I tend to warn others. There I'm done commenting on this stuff. This isn't a political or medical forum. I'll be sticking strictly to Grateful Dead on any future comments going forward. Just felt like I had to respond after being falsely accused of being a pinocchio Much Love Praise DSO
