If you’re looking for mellow Jerry vibes, turn your head, for this ain’t it. (and I ain’t superstitious!) https://archive.org/details/gd85-04-14.sbd.jeffm.3667.sbeok.shnf/gd85-04-14d1t04.shn 2 Quote
Forum MVP DesertDead Posted April 15, 2023 Author Forum MVP Report Posted April 15, 2023 April 15, 1970 is Winterland. When Cold Rain ends, stick around for a young Bobby screaming with joy. Fun stuff, killer 1970 show. https://archive.org/details/gd70-04-15.sbd.kaplan.14354.sbeok.shnf/gd70-04-15d1t01.shn 1 Quote
Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted April 17, 2023 Forum MVP Report Posted April 17, 2023 I think there was the show, a Sunday afternoon show, at the Greeks, TDIGDH where it was so sweltering hot that our mic stand guy collapsed from the heat in the second set. It was his turn to sport the AKG 460's in a horn hat with cables running down his pant leg to a D5 operated by the second crew member that set. I didn't make this series but picked up the equipment after the four shows in Alpine to record the rest of summer tour. Didn't do Oxford Plains, regrettably after hearing the fantasy. 3 Quote

Forum MVP gr8fulpair Posted April 30, 2023 Forum MVP Report Posted April 30, 2023 You’ll still find me on street corners preaching about 4/29/71 being the greatest performance the Dead ever did, which of course includes the best Hard to Handle ever performed. Tea has a rookies ear and really just doesn’t listen to enough GD to weigh in on this topic. Nice guy tho. 1 2 Quote

Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted May 7, 2023 Forum MVP Report Posted May 7, 2023 That’s a good one, gotta check it out. I’m guessing a late era Race is on, second set opening reads like a first set opener, Playin’ into Eyes must be heard, I think. I’m on my way… 2 Quote

Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted July 7, 2023 Forum MVP Report Posted July 7, 2023 Alpine 84, with the night before spacing into Dear Mr Fantasy and the following shows being the Greek series with the Friday the 13th experiment. That Fantasy was a big deal around here in 84, made Alpine a destination site for years to come, getting bigger and longer until the final rainout series in 89 and the end of the most spectacular parking lot camping EVER 2 Quote

Forum MVP DesertDead Posted July 22, 2023 Author Forum MVP Report Posted July 22, 2023 July 22, 1984. Ventura County Fairgrounds. As most of you may know, this venue is literally on the beach. Skull and Roses Festival takes place there every year. Show has a Dancin opener, I Just Want to Make Love to You, Dew out of Space, and two encores. Also, apparently Jerry thinks that some woman named Bertha should not ever come around there anymore. https://archive.org/details/gd84-07-22.pcm-sbd.miller.30650.sbeok.flacf/gd84-07-22d1t02.flac 1 Quote
Forum MVP John A Posted July 24, 2023 Forum MVP Report Posted July 24, 2023 For 7-22-84 Ventura, listen to Loser as loud as possible, paying particular attention to the Phil bomb at the end of the jam and Jerry's ensuing vocals. Good shit! 1 Quote
