Now, that’s how I like it. Rockin the Tabernacle. 
 

It would have been sooooo much better than the emergency vet with my daughter’s cat last night.

Looks like a smoker.

Enjoy the ride.

 

Praise DSO.

The Grateful Dead environment has strange and interesting things happening. I was just feeling fine as we approached the Tabernacle and the gathering crowd. There was a man with a large beautiful Madagascan lemur , gray any white, on one shoulder and a parrot on the other. We got to talk with them for a while.

Approaching the check in inspection place it got more puzzling for instead of the normal shakedown I was set to the side and this nice security man was telling me his name was Michael too. But at that time no one had looked or scanned my phone tickets. Maybe he knew me from past times, I don t know. He explained they would take care of us and take us in. The next thing i knew a lady was putting us on an elevator. It was small with just enough space for Jill and I. I had to hold a button and we were carried up higher and higher and then we were escorted to the front of the room.

After the show when we split from other friends they escorted us out the back stage area. Outside the same security folk walked us through some security area and opened a gate to the street scene but behind the Tabernacle. They treated us like we were their grandparents or something.

Eventually we caught an Uber and after starting out Bruce shyly asked if we could drive around the front of the Tabernacle. Turns out he was looking for a lady he had met. She had told him they should meet out front. Sadly we could not find her among the remaining deadheads still partying on the sidewalk.

 

Peace and Love,

Doc

For sure a fun time along with several good friends.  I was on the rail right in front of Jeff for the whole first set. Second set was setting in ADA just off the left side of stage.

So good to be with you brother! Had to retreat to some pretty nice open dance space (Ed needs about 100sqft) in the back on the wood floors. To say this was a barn burner wouldn’t do it justice. Well played DSO. Sound and lights were money too!

Love the looks of that set list…

sounds like it was quite a blast!

ya’ll keep enjoying yourselves out there, ya hear?!
