Dang, and I went home after Monterey! D’oh!

nice footage! I’m sure we’ll see some clips from Ted in a day or three. He was definitely there shooting

Finally some room to dance! Every venue I’ve hit this run a has been super crowded. This was the most casual show of the five I caught, but also the most definitely FAMILY crowd vibe. Stir it Up, dedicated to Aston “familyman” Barrett was a real treat. Warm and heartfelt.

Ted’s a good dude.

also you might find some footage on YouTube. TedToob channel is a good place for find Bay Area shows online.

Slim chance of an AUD recording appearing on archive. If you can wait a couple years Eaton might put it up on Nugs…

scorcher of an elective show! Second set was really something special set 1: Box of Rain Touch of Grey Hell in a Bucket Loser My Brother Esau Lay Down Sally CC Rider Keep on Growing Masterpiece Shakedown Street set 2: Help on the Way> Slipknot> Franklin’s Tower Corrina* Birdsong* Drums>* Tomorrow Never Knows The Last Time Visions of Johanna Throwing Stones> GDTRFB Encore: The Mighty Quinn *w/ Jay Lane

Only opened a GD show four times!

DSO are absolutely my #1 band to see live, but I’m damn glad they still play smaller venues. And I can’t imagine being irked about Billy Strings’ success. The kid has a crack band with its own improvisational style, plays tremendously well, sings with great emotive force, and writes fantastic original songs. If he could dance, he’d be bigger than Taylor Swift! He has his own thing and the cover versions are just the icing on the cake music is a collaboration, not a competition. DSO tour hard but they can’t hit every town every year. And we need young talent for “this music” to continue.

Stunning show from my favorite of GD eras. I didn’t realize just how TINY the Guild Theater is. Seemed like they oversold it last night - either that or fans took advantage of their hand stamp policy. Gott Dang hippies!

2/23/74, show was a doozy! Started just after 7 and ran shortly past 11, pretty late for sleepy Menlo Park. Both sets packed with gems, band continued in top form. Set 1: Around And Around, Dire Wolf, Me And Bobby McGee, Sugaree, Mexicali Blues, Here Comes Sunshine, Beat It On Down The Line, Ship Of Fools, Jack Straw, Deal, Promised Land > Bertha > Greatest Story Ever Told Set 2: Row Jimmy, Weather Report Suite Prelude > Weather Report Suite Part 1 > Let It Grow > Stella Blue, Big River, Ramble On Rose, Me And My Uncle, He's Gone > Truckin' > Drums > The Other One > Eyes Of The World, One More Saturday Night Encore: Casey Jones, Johnny B. Goode > And We Bid You Good Night Casey jones played as set closer, not in encore

they definitely did the Playin jam between BMR and Miracle. It was great - as was the post-Miracle jam into drums. My first time at The Sound - it’s well named. Extremely hi-Fi acoustics. Still has a sterile feel as a brand new place. The pit area is enormous, with no clear aisles, so it’s a bit of a mess, though the crowd wasn’t uncomfortably dense, just huge and disorganized. I’ll have to explore the balcony next time. Definitely a welcome addition to San Diego’s thin selection of venues. We needed one this size.

Agreed on so many points. The sound in the Wiltern was far from as crisp as it was at The Sound in Del Mar. packed house in LA had definite D&C spillover and heady big city vibes compared to laid back San Diego. both shows sold out, arguably oversold. We had to bail from the Wiltern pit due to extreme squeezing - it just wasn’t fun getting pressed up against that much flesh. Found some empty seats up top. Lovely view but people were shorter when they built those seat. Jeff’s extremely animated this tour. Pushing things to the brink again and again. we’re skipping SLO but looking forward to some winter heat in NorCal

Filler: Golden Road

Show is 7-13-81 Denver

Hope to see a few of you there tonight!

neither was a ftp but they were very new for sure

Filler: Mr Charlie Shape I’m In White Rabbit excellent show with quirky setlist - Skip was loud as heck on the Irwin/Modulus. Jeff was in great spirits and just tearing it up. highlights: LLR(!), birdsong, playin jam >Miracle > jam into drums, Comes a Time

Show is 12-27-86. skio on Phil’s one-piece molded graphite bass (thanks Jason!)

Last night in Tempe was a mid-80s flavored elective selection, so I’d say the head has the edge between those two. but who knows?

I would welcome a ‘77 set. Or a 73-4. Or both!

Pretty excited to start a five-show Cali run in (basically) my hometown. The Sound is a brand new venue, looks promising. lots more sold out shows than usual this tour, I guess because people aren’t blowing their cash on D&C tour? Whatever, it’s good for DSO and good for fans. LFG!!!

DSO at the Warfield is always special. One of my top events of the year.

yeah both nights were prime cut DSO.

sound was mostly great last year, only major sets with any issues were Oteil being delayed and limited to 20 minutes, and the preceding Circles Around the Sun who got some loud cracks. The JGB set went smoothly. Prices are way high, but there were early options for less, and there are single and 3-day passes as well. There’s room for Skull and Roses to improve, but the event also has a lot going for it. Atmosphere is amazing and you get to spend a week with the California fam
