  1. The Rochester minor league baseball stadium show is fun, they usually play there every year. Not a huge venue but still a fun time and great place to see DSO.
  2. Recently tried Mike’s Amazing Mayonaisse, if you see it in the store it may be worth breaking your allegiance to your favorite brand to give it a shot. Good stuff 👍
  3. Hey Jen, depending on heavily sold the venue is (which will probably be the case on NYE) sometimes they will wristband for the floor, so you could only get down there if you have GA. If it’s packed, though, the floor will be tough to find a space to dance. You’ll still be able to get down to the front lobby section, which is ok for space albeit a little quiet. Some dancers will also take up residence in the upper hallway, also pretty good for space but not very loud. Hope this helps, see you there!
  4. This show was indeed killer, I left the venue completely soaked from dancing my brains out the entire night in the upper balcony floor. Looking forward to the Cap run for New Years 🌋⚡️🌪️
  5. Well, that’s a great review! Glad you got out to see a show and great to see a good ole happy, detailed, glowing review!
  6. Just did a quick dive, and wow! Great job and thanks a lot. I’ve wished for a searchable online Deadbase and this feels like just the thing, amazing work ⚡️⚡️
  7. I talked to a guy like this at a show, he was so mad about the setbreak and drums and space in particular and also saying how these guys aren’t the Grateful Dead and being mad they didn’t play Terrapin or Eyes or another one of his favorites. Pretty sure he left during drums and space. I thought it might be the same guy but the show I saw was an 85 smoker at the Stone Pony. This guy was really going out of his way to communicate to me how shitty of a time he was having 😂😂
  8. We gotta get back with the kids and see more stuff, need some time there to explore.

  10. Tonight was killer. I had a lot more fun, felt acclimated to the altitude and spent the whole night down in the first few rows twirling around in circles 😄. After another short rain delay, the sun came out bright and hot. The band came out breathing fire right out of the gate, and the crowd really felt electric and fully into it. Lisa killed it on Strange Man, really enjoyed hearing Liberty and So Many Roads, it’s been a while since I’ve seen either song played. Skip started off on oxygen in Tom Thumb’s, love his substitutions in there and this one was great. The crowd was really into the “spent a little time on the mountain” line. Alligator was a lot of fun, and Mountain Jam was a nice treat. Was, of course, as always, hoping for the Dew, and it felt like its arrival was being foreshadowed throughout the second set with some of the 80s pre Dew songs. Gimme Some Lovin, Wheel and Watchtower had me feeling like maybe it could be coming and it was a surprise to get it out of GDTRFB. The Morning Dew was perfect with Jeff nailing the vocals with emotion. Skip was also killing it all night and was laying out the big bombs during Dew. Really enjoyed being down in front and watching the band when I was able keep the front of my body aimed at the stage, resting up tonight and hoping to drive to Yellowstone early tomorrow morning, that was fun😁

  12. Well, what a great start to three nights at this amazing venue. We got in over here on Thursday, have been driving around this beautiful area, it’s really cool here. Rode the gondola to the top of the mountain, where there are a couple buildings under construction. Passed by few food trucks and a beer tent, to the concert area, a small flat area followed by a short, steep incline up to another flat area at the top. Started down at the bottom and spent most of the time up top enjoying the view of the stage, with the staggering expanse of Grand Teton National Park providing the backdrop. Start time was scheduled for 6pm, had a rain delay of maybe 30-45 minutes, but the storm passed quickly and the sun came out and warmed everything back up. Love the early start outdoor shows, sun was setting early in the second set. I had a good time and the band sounded excellent but I had a hard time getting my legs, usually seem to run into that on the first night of a run, where it could be any number of factors, but I think the elevation was giving me trouble so I took it easy most of the night. Gonna go hit em again tonight with renewed vigor, probably gonna go poke around here again today and see what we can see. Thanks DSO for playing here, been wanting to visit here for a while and this was the perfect time 😄

    Jubilee night 3 23

    Well, what an amazing weekend and this night was my favorite of the three. I’m gonna agree with Rude’s assessment here and go with all the superlatives. High energy first set and the band came back and topped it with their best set of the weekend. Easy Wind was indeed killer with many friends ripping it up on the dance floor. The Other One began softly with Eaton beginning the first verse out of a quiet part without the usual walloping bass kickoff. The jam ensued, finishing once again softly, followed by an enormously high energy, walloping intro into the next verse, which maintained the energy until coming in for a smooth landing into a sweet Stella Blue. Walrus kicked ass, it was cool to catch the first one (not the first! Consulted starbase and it was played 3 other times in 2007, two Terrapin Nation shows along with a soundcheck)😀
