Fall Tour 1991 doesn’t get it’s due and may never will. The music was way beyond my expectations and some truly epic times were had. Disregard at your peril. https://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1991/09/22

Congrats on the addition of Gus to your family! So beautiful ❤️

Awesome Sauce thanks for the upload to the photo gallery! Siren Song ❤️

The contrast can be quite extreme when the energy crackles like a thunder-cloud for hours on-end....

8/21/72 - Nuff Said. My favorite GSET - by far. https://archive.org/details/gd72-08-21.sbd.hamilton.150.sbeok.shnf If you don’t have experience with this show - get to know it. 1972 is chock full - show after show

That Terrapin was an absolute monster. Simply vicious. The Crazy Fingers was the perfect fuse for that 2nd set DSO + Crew are just so dialed-in! So thankful.

Maybe you were really cool but just didn't realize it:

Also - my apologies for prompting an unnecessary visit from local law enforcement. I apparently I did not have the proper permits for an outdoor after-hours open-mic performance. Shit. All’s well that ends well !

Both shows were chock full of moments where we all seemed to just levitate together. The band managed to expertly communicate feelings of joy, wickedness, beauty, solemn truth, peace, love, doubt, strength, loss, and inspiration! Really, really great fun! The people - wow, the people! Put these things together and you’ve got heaven on earth The best of times ❤️

Does Uber run out here? Where can we get muscle milk and sushi? We need to eat dinner by 4pm? What time is check-in? What time is check-out? What is the actual showtime? Is there Re-Entry? Where is the smoking section? Does the venue have a coat-check? Where's my ticket?

Love this quote: There’s no way to measure his greatness or magnitude as a person or as a player. I don’t think eulogizing will do him justice. He was that great – much more than a superb musician with an uncanny ear and dexterity. He is the very spirit personified of whatever is muddy river country at its core and screams up into the spheres. He really had no equal. To me he wasn’t only a musician and friend, he was more like a big brother who taught and showed me more than he’ll ever know. There are a lot of spaces and advances between the Carter family, Buddy Holly and, say, Ornette Coleman, a lot of universes, but he filled them all without being a member of any school. His playing was moody, awesome, sophisticated, hypnotic and subtle. There’s no way to convey the loss. It just digs down really deep. - Bob Dylan
