Milehighjoel. Posted July 30, 2020 Report Posted July 30, 2020 Mm if you please those blue hue tinted buds up north. Haven't listened to the set yet but I'm thinking the sitting on top of the world is gonna smoke. Gets that poppy pipe organ groove sometimes Quote
Forum MVP DesertDead Posted July 30, 2020 Author Forum MVP Report Posted July 30, 2020 This whole show smokes and should be required listening to attain Deadhead status. If I started to comment about one song, I would be leaving out the others. Greg, Baby Blue is in here. 😄 Quote
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted July 30, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted July 30, 2020 Ha ! I checked it out this morning. I was thinking earlier today how Dark Star Orchestra, this forum and it’s posters, your deadbase game, the internet, etc. has opened up the Grateful Dead universe to me. I started in 1980, so have always been a Brent fan and always drawn to that time period as far as listening to tapes. Catching Dark Star shows got me listening to seventies shows, seeking them out on the internet, getting an understanding of that era. About a year ago, I started to pull up shows from today’s date. A great way to explore all of the different eras of the Grateful Dead. There is so much to study. They make you listen to every note. All of it is important. It’s deep. I credit Dark Star Orchestra for keeping the wheel turning and keeping me from not fading away. Moving forward, I’m thinking one of the nights in Philly will be an elective possibly with a theme fitting of these crazy times of late. 3 Quote
Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted July 31, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted July 31, 2020 Billy Strings is doing two drive in shows in Illinois and it says each car is giving an extra car space so if people want to get out of their car they use this extra space. I think those that got philly tickets are going to have a real swell time. I wonder how many cars the lot holds ? Hopefully all goes well with the follow up health reports. I don't see 1000 people packing into any clubs any time soon. Kudos for DSO for venturing out and for everyone who bought tickets and for all the forum folks for keeping a torch lit. FYI Lindley had a statement on his cds that said if you make a copy for someone please send $5.00 to a po box in Boulder. He said he wasn't funded by any corporations. 1 Quote
Forum MVP DesertDead Posted July 31, 2020 Author Forum MVP Report Posted July 31, 2020 I sincerely respect Lindley’s right to manage his vibe with his music however he sees fit. But copying his CD and sending him a $5 kicker is light years from him getting exposure to tens of thousands of ears whilst appearing as a guest of Phil and Jerry and him saying “no taping”. He was looking a gift horse in the mouth. 🐴🐴🐴 1 Quote
Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted July 31, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted July 31, 2020 Yeah , he was. Bruce Cockburn caught me taping one of his shows and cussed me out I'm front of the audience. Wrecked my experience and I wasn't selling anything., just gonna turn more people on to him Quote
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted July 31, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted July 31, 2020 I like what Jerry said about tapers. After we play it, we’re done with it. They can have it. Talk about moving the music forward, experimentation. 2 Quote

Hey - saw 'em both then! The Laguna Seca isn't ringing a bell though. And speaking of rare songs, when Believe It Or Not slipped into the ballad slot at Laguna Seca it felt like something that was probably there to stay. Alas, no. 1 Quote
Forum MVP DesertDead Posted August 1, 2020 Author Forum MVP Report Posted August 1, 2020 August 1. To celebrate Jerry’s birthday, let’s go ahead and give a choice. The Grateful Dead only played 4 times on Garcia’s birthday. Only three are on the Archive: 1973 https://archive.org/details/gd73-08-01.aud.weiner.gdADT08.9145.sbeok.shnf 1982, at the Zoo in Oklahoma. (DSO played the Zoo in Minnesota.) https://archive.org/details/gd82-08-01.sbd.willy.10226.sbeok.shnf 1994 The show in 1967 doesn’t have a setlist and is not on the Archive. There are shows on July 31, and some the first week of August, but it seems evident that, for the most part, Jerry preferred to not be playing on his birthday. Speculation on my part, but it does seem to be a trend. I went to the Detroit show in 1994, Jerry’s 52nd. The show didn’t start until Stagger Lee, when the volume got turned WAY up mid-song (wtf, Cutler?). Music was good. Set 2 of that show was very strong. VOTC Scarlet Fire (only Scarlet/Fire of Summer Tour) Samba Estimated Prophet Drums/Space Watchtower Stella Blue (very emotive) Satisfaction (hot) E: Liberty https://archive.org/details/gd94-08-01.set2-sbd.georges.1026.sbeok.shnf 1 Quote
Forum MVP John A Posted August 1, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted August 1, 2020 That 8-1-94 Stella stands alone with 3-21-94 Richfield OH as the "Garcia vocal jam" late era Stellas. The man had virtually no chops left, but he could still muster a way to bring it. 1 Quote

Forum MVP DesertDead Posted August 2, 2020 Author Forum MVP Report Posted August 2, 2020 8/2/76 Hartford. Last time outdoors in Hartford before moving into the Civic Center for the remainder of their visits to the insurance capital of the free world. Good audience recording. https://archive.org/details/gd76-08-02.gatto.aj.245.sbeok.shnf/gd76-08-02d2t06.shn 1 Quote
Forum MVP John A Posted August 3, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted August 3, 2020 That Keith Gotto '76 Hartford is a pretty solid audience capture , which is good because no board circulates! Quote
Hardpan Posted August 3, 2020 Report Posted August 3, 2020 I know this is TIGDH, not TIDSOH, but this is one of my favorite recordings I made, two years ago today, at Frontier Field in Rochester, 8/3/18. Had the perfect spot and tremendous sound, made friends with sml that day, along with a few other friends who I hold dear to this day, it was really a splendid show and time. Killer Blow Away 🌬 https://archive.org/details/dso2018-08-03.nak300cp4.flac16 4 Quote
Forum MVP DesertDead Posted August 4, 2020 Author Forum MVP Report Posted August 4, 2020 8/3/82. Kansas City. I have three words: Charlie Miller soundboard. https://archive.org/details/gd1982-08-03.sbd.miller.77196.sbeok.flac16 Quote
Forum MVP John A Posted August 4, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted August 4, 2020 There's a set 2 only with AKG mics and an Uher deck (rare and very nice German portable cassette) that's also a pretty sweet listen for that 8-3-82. It's worth seeking out. Quote
Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted August 4, 2020 Forum MVP Report Posted August 4, 2020 8/4/89 Cal Expo, my one and only set of shows there. I believe this is the one the had a Cumberland Ryder?. The Scarlet fire of this series is one of my favorites. Had to use a 100 minute to capture the pre drums 2 Quote
