Literary PSA on a new book: Here Beside The Rising Tide
Ammagamalin Crew replied to John A's topic in Random Thoughts
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

What are considered by me to be worthy of subscribing to anything would be the Santa Fe 83 Wang Dang Doodle show, the Richmond 85 Space>Morning Dew set, Placid Sugaree, Long Beach 81 Shakedown Street and the complete Riverbend and Hershey summer 85 shows. Being still mostly analog dependent sprinkled with some master and 1st gen dbx, beta and vhs audio sources for my listening adventures, some vault dvds and master sbd cds courtesy of some long time GD and DSO friends, mainly dstone from trades years ago. Can't reasonably pay for music with my pennies going to seeing Hyryder live these days and possibly a DSO show every now and then.

Based on the placement, I'm betting Jeff. Really glad to see Easy To Slip and Operator, especially ETS. Bobby loved playing it when he was touring with Kingfish in 86

The Cincinnati Public Library has 8 copies, 6 available so I requested it. Thanks for the suggestion. The synopsis reads well -
The Alladin Theater Las Vegas 1984 & The Spectrum Philadelphia 1985 both long drives for OMSN

Free Mexican Airforce starts with a funny story with something being rolled into a cone shape about the size of the NY Times with one end being shoved in his mouth and a red burning ember at the other end. He said "inhale, and I did inhale"

Positively 4th Going Going Gone Maggie's Farm -
I backed out of the deercreek three shows because it was $421 for a 3 day pass. I gotta get the pricey ADA for my Phish friend who has CoPd and can't stand for an entire show. Instead, I'll take the Jubilee weekend ticket which includes camping. Hell that Phish would have hotel and restaurant costs taking it up to $6-700. Been to way to many concerts to spend that kind of $ on Phish shows. I guess that's probably happening with their Sphere deal. I did end up getting Emmylou tickets for her Peace Center show in Greenville on Sunday June 7th, that was only $75 though and an easy 7 hr drive

Any thoughts on Stolen Faces? My only G L O R I A in 200+ shows. Haven't even caught one from DSO, BCE or Hyryder -

In Louisville, 1993 summer tour, they blew everyone's mind by closing both nights first sets with Don't Ease. I also vividly remember Bobby being way to loud and basically ruining the morning dew with a constant, loud, bang bang throughout, crinch worthy. Does anyone remember in 87 when there was quad speakers set up and during LL Rain they would channel Jerry's noodling around and around the indoor arenas? -
Reaching for the gold ring deep inside! Hell yeah!!!

Good memory Bill, that 84 Aladdin Theater being my 3rd show and cherry broke on having to drive all day and all night for a single show ~ well worth it, grateful to be in that station wagon leaving Laramie at midnight on the 5th. Was also at the Chinese NY run in January of 87 for another space>Eyes, catching the $10 JGB shows at The Stone the Sat and Sun before this SF series. My TIGDH comes from another long ass drive through the desert for another casino city show: Jerry Garcia Band February 21, 1987 Lawlor Events Center Reno, Nevada Set #1 I'll Take A Melody Crazy Love Dear Prudence The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (my first white whale and I was alright with it ending a short set) Set #2 Harder They Come I Shall Be Released Gomorrah Think Lucky Old Sun Tangled Up in Blues Then a quick bite at the $1.49 casino buffet and right back to Laramie for class on Monday morning. My best taper friend at that time, Tom Heiberger and his wife Bobbi, out of Longmont, CO changed his brake pads on the side of the highway on the way out that Friday afternoon. Lawlor Events Center was kinda like a High School gym with a curtain hanging behind the band ~ weird

A new friend last night was asking if I'd seen them? They got a solid no because we were in the fold of a trap ryde with tonight's show up next, just not taking any more applications esp with Hyryder about to drop a whole slew of upcoming dates. Ever since Rude got me into my first show, nothing has come close, $20 to be right at the stage with plenty of dance space makes me unapproachable for going to others. I'm glad there's the others for the masses. Nice looking setlist though, thx for the report!

This tour had exceptional setlists, even slid in an 83 show ~ looking forward to the upcoming March series -
Proud Mary would have been a cover for GD encore

Born Cross Eyed played all Bobby songs except a He's Gone in the second set. A raucous Sugar Magnolia with extra measures and leads emphasizing the magnitude of the event honoring. A 15 minute Jack Straw marking this a special show: #1 Hell in A Bucket Jack straw BTW Esau Uncle River Rooster GSET Wang Dang Let It Grow #2 Sampson Easy Answers Estimated He's Gone Victim Sugar Magnolia One More Saturday Night Johnny B Goode
