Just got my recording of this show uploaded to the archive if anyone wants to listen to it: https://archive.org/details/dso2018-12-01.nak300.cp1.cp4.flac24

I played Low Spark with Phil and Warren as early as 99. I sang it with Phil and Friends in spring 2000. It became a staple of the Q in fall of 2000 with Warren singing. It was also a staple of The Zen Tricksters when I was a member as early as 89 with Mattson singing

Thanks so much for your recording efforts Hardpan!

Haha, it was great swapping tales with you. Just passed by BillK's old street of residence on my delivery route, as I do almost every day, small world.

If you get confused, listen to the music play.

Boss in NY this week, everyone else gone for the day. Time to crank! Thanks again Hardpan!

Yea, I kept telling myself, shut up, Greg. You talk too much, but to no avail. A great time was had by all.

Thanks for the recording. Can't wait to listen. I was there at RFK in '73, along with just about everyone I knew back then. Yes, it was unbelievably hot and humid. Just the start of a sizzling hot summer that continued with Watkins Glen (with Allmans and The Band) and 2 nights at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City (with The Band.) DSO keeps it all alive -- so grateful for them.

Journeyed through first set so far... this is one squeaky clean recording dude! Thanks again Hardpan

Right on Rob! I was curious if it threaded back to Tricksters days... Well will all be patient for re-emergence now 😉

Great sound! Incredible job! Thanks so much, and thanks for the fishing stories.

I use a comfy insert and running shoes and realize I need to upgrade again. I may get some usain bolt track shoes that weigh 4 grams but think those only last 400 meters. I’d have to carry 4-5 pairs to survive a show. We were talkinj after the show about how did the fans survive allman brothers then a 4.5 hour dead show in the heat. We know the answer really. There weren’t 45-65yr olds at the show and in 73 they probably walked 4 miles to RFK and didn’t think twice about it. They just took off their shirts and got a great sunburn and got to experience one of the great pleasures of life. It’s best not to think too long about those kinds of things though even though I lived vicariously through probably a 15yr old rob barraco who said he lied to his parents to go to that rfk show. I wonder if he ever imagined when he was at that show if he would have played with the allman brothers 40 years later at their farewell shows. That’s sort of crazy to think about. I’m guessing if you said that to him at rfk “you are going to play keyboards with the allmans someday” he’d have laughed his ass off and asked how much acid you had eaten lol.

Clbrosh.... Here you go 😊
