Turns out that the deer deercreek parking lot is just as it's been in previous years with free, all day tailgating and the usual 1/2 mile Shakedown city set up bringing in some of the country's finest artists and imaginative crafts people.

Very special, esp with having 2 intimate indoor experiments during the summer tour with two big looming stadiums ahead to finish. Excitement was building from the beginning of tour as to what Roanoke had to behold.

Standing on the Moon>He's Gone> KY Jam... It's on the 1990 Pittsburgh Vault DVD as filler. Jerry just didn't want to commit to one song so he played them all without any words

Second that emotion. Not many people posting on here , ever since Aaron left. I've tried to stay off here because, I don't like seeing my posts as the only one on here, thinking maybe i'm scaring people off, so I steer clear.

Tonight would be a perfect time to recreate Hershey 85

Agreed there's some insight to Jerry. I kind of got annoyed when the author reached a point that merited more insider's information, like when he touched on the meeting of Joseph Campbell and the symposium held at Berkeley on November first 1986, immediately following the halloween show at the Kaiser. There was mention and a picture, but he really didn't go into detail about that day, which if you were in attendance was a turning point in understanding the celebration of life at a dead concert. Tim Newton is more of an uninformed historian of GD culture than an insider deadhead. Constantly throughout the book one has to sift through 2 to 3 pages of reading about Ronald Reagan and black panthers history, ect to get to get 2 - 3 paragraphs of Jerry. Granted, the book has a nice title and there's a really good picture of Jerry on the front cover; however, a weight has been lifted now that i've returned it to the library and don't have to sift through it anymore. Also, I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this problem, but AI is really fucking with my entries into something like this forum. It's editing out my cusswords and rewording my thoughts changing their projections in subtle ways that discourage, rather than encourage, me to continue participating at any community based writing activity.

Going to have to disagree with you on this one John A. I found the book to be extremely hard to get through until I started skimming through pages. Really, the last 100 pages have anything that keeps the interest to continue reading it. Way to much writing on politics and very little on Jerry and The Grateful Dead. I don't recommend this book for the experienced deadhead, it's boring

I wonder how many setlists will will include The Race Is On at shows tonight

Frosty flakes shows coming up. Palo Alto with roses growing everywhere and the 2pm showtimes were a special treat, didn't have to wait all day ~ everything in broad daylight This would be right up there with Greek Theater and RR for DSO to schedule

Sad and Deep as You, World in Changes, We Just Disagree let alone all his Traffic material and All Along The Watchtower , always delivered a moving Dear Mr Fantasy. I taped him using a friend's high end deck, Marantz 420, and quality mics for my first "real" taping experience back in April of '85 @ Bogarts. Only You Know and I Know
