Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted December 30, 2012 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Reliable sources also reported a Tenn Jed before MAMU and a Greatest Story before Pocky Way. Glad to see Dylan so well represented! Sorry to miss this run. Sure doesn't look like it is a snooze fest...keep warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrapin_Sedation Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Confirm on the Jed and Greatest Story. I think the Big Boss Man came after the Uncle>Big River but wouldn't swear to it. Also a Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys jam out of Space......(and a Puff the Magic Dragon intro before UJB, but would want to hear the recording before being quoted on that)..... There was at least one kind taper there and he said he would put it up on archive. It sure was a packed house..... With the chugga-chugga Bertha into Good Lovin and Peggy O, I thought it was a 73 or 74 show, but the Big Boss Man confused that and the Visions made it clear it was an original setlist. Many many highlights, including Big River...NFA and Throwing Stones .....but the Tangled Up in Blue blew my socks off..... Big Dylan night....with the Visions and Quinn. DSO does not fail.

Cosmic Mike Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Ah...the Philly show . This show was my favorite for multiple reasons, and I actually might consider this my favorite DSO show I have seen yet. For one the music was just awesome, two it was an elective and I always love an elective because you never know what they are going to play next and you get to hear some rarer songs, three I had a killer view and dance space just above/behind the camera guy for the second set, four the crowd was my favorite of all the New Years shows, and lastly I didn't even think I was going to make it to the show when my car broke down, so I was absolutely just filled with joy to be there. Okay so now for the music. The first set was great overall. I thought they did a particularly excellent job on the Big River, Visions of Johanna, Greatest Story Ever Told> Hey Pocky Way. Man was the Greatest Story rippin' and Lisa did an awesome job vocally on it. Now the second set was something else, it was utterly off-the-wall. I frickin' loved that Foolish Heart, incredible interplay/soloing between Jeff and Rob. Man Smart Women Smarter was very groovy indeed. The St Stephen was unbelievable and just full of power, everyone was really throwing it in. Some people aren't a fan of drums/space, but I am. I think this was the night when Rob was making some crazy Peruvian pan flute noises during the drums and I was really diggin it. I love a very tribal drums, it always make me feel like I'm exploring the rain forest, and who doesn't love the rain forest? The Low Spark theme was something new to me, but I really enjoyed it. So Many Roads poured with emotion and was a nice way to slow things up for a little bit. The Throwing Stones>Tangled Up In Blue was just full of power, they really threw it down hard, and I mean hard, for both songs. Mighty Quinn is always a great song and really sealed it off as a night that honored Bob Dylan. I couldn't have been happier. I had the biggest grin on my face the whole show. Thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted January 7, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I think I agree with Mike that this was the show for me. It certainly was the show that hit me the hardest emotionally and I think had the greatest impact on me as a person. I must admit I had a rough time getting into the first set. I tried to force my way upfront with a group of my friends, but they were already packed in pretty tight and adding me to the mix didn't leave much room for dancing. I am happy for the band that they got to play to the largest crowd the E Factory has ever seen, but at the end of the day, it did not make for an easy dance environment. Thus, I retreated to the back for the first set and what would be the duration of the show. I also must note that visions always makes me miss jk. I feel that the DSO JK visions are the best visions out there, including the Jerry versions from 86 that are also hauntingly beautiful. Despite this caveat, it is always a treat to hear this song and Jeff and DSO certainly didn't disappoint. This night was sure to be a psychedelic mind fuck from the gate. We played straight through after Baltimore. We raced to grab some friends in Jersey before the show and we made it to the venue just in time. The colors were bleeding; the walls were breathing. Tonight I would give up the keys and really let my mind go. Thank you so much sober buddy for leading the lost boys home. I hope your feeling better. As previously stated, the place was packed and dance space at a premium. However, there was certainly room in the back of the venue, especially during the 2nd set after some good ol philly labor came and move some stuff around to open up the space. We arrived to the venue just in time, but I waited outside with a friend to make sure he secured his ticket before entering so I came in after the band had already started playing the opener. Sucks to have been running a little late. I love a bertha-good lovin opener. Can lead to some big dancing or as some others around here put it, flailing. However, I spent most of the first few songs finding friends, figuring out where I wanted to dance, and saying hi to some good friends I either missed in Bmore or did not attend Bmore. There was certainly a good group of friends at e factory show. A few of them very dear to me that I would only get to see once on this run. Love you guys. By the visions, I had found my space in the back and although, impossible to find a quiet space on the e factory floor; I could find a quiet place in my head. Vision is just a very moving song. One of my favorite Dylan tunes that the dead covered. GSET and hey pocky way are always some good dance numbers. By this point some of my good friends would begin to retreat to back with me. By the start of the 2nd set, a good group of dancers had assembled. The 2nd set was hands down my favorite set of the run. Starting with Jack Straw I was on an emotional roller coaster. Sometimes racing/dancing around like a madman. At other times, very quiet and still. The Foolish Heart was fantastic. Definitely worth a 2nd listen, but the set really culminated with the So Many Roads. I had to retreat further back as the tears slowly rolled down my face. This song always has the ability to touch me in a momentous way and tonight I was unable to hold the emotions back. Thank you DSO band and crew. I really needed that. As previously stated, the Throwing Stones and Tangled were outstanding. This elective DSO set had a little bit of everything with some early dead psychedelia to some bouncy and very danceable 80s dead. After the show, we would retreat to where I used to live for some after hours fun. A great group of friends showed up and we had a rocking good time after the philly show. We listened to music until the wee hours of morning and shared great stories. Sorry for ranting and raving a little bit guys. I couldn't contain myself and this night would lead to a diminished voice and a sore throat. I would like to note that it was very special to share some of my dad's last bottle of scotch with a few friends and get to share some stories about my father. It still very tough for me to talk or think about him most of the time and I am happy that I was able to share stories and smiles about my father. He was a tremendous man and deserves to have his memory honored. Next up, long island to ring in the new year. Love is Real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Mango Posted January 8, 2013 Author Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 nice review there, Rick, keep em coming. I thought I would add that I brought my mother to this show. She was super impressed with the show, much more than the previous one she caught which was two years prior at the Wellmont(late 69 recreation). Maybe it gave her an inkling of why I do this so much...I gotta say I was impressed with how well she hung dancing and socializing with my friends. Very cool...go Mom! She says she'll go back to the next philly show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP John A Posted January 8, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I also must note that visions always makes me miss jk. I feel that the DSO JK visions are the best visions out there, including the Jerry versions from 86 that are also hauntingly beautiful. The Visions for the ages was the one JK did with Phil at Terrapin Crossroads - by candle light. The power has blown and there was no amplification whatsoever. Talk about haunting. Unfortunately, I'd be shocked if anybody made a tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blindman Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Agreed John. That Visions at TXR was one of the best experiences in recent memory. Fortunately we have a couple bands these days that keep those wonderful Garcia songs alive. Looking forward to spring tour... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP GoingBackTo Where.... Posted January 20, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 I still have chills. I Danced my ass off that night, and thank god for some awesom philly heads, that gave me room, to do it. Really cool people mixed with one if not the best "Shows" I have ever heard. My eyes were closed most of the time, as I twirled and jumped around!!! But really-------the show had everything you want in a show. They were so flipping tight that I could get out my feelings fast enough. The St. Stephan brought tears to my eyes, and the So Many Roads just left me jaw dropped. The brillance and fun of these guys. God I love DSO-----I just hate that I now found them. Nearly a decade loss:{ After nearly a 2decade break from good live shows. No point going to see anyone else after 95:{ But really----Thank you DSO, you have given me back something I thought I loss forever:}!!!!!!
