There's the SF⚡ I don't see 7/14 following, but I could be wrong. That's what Lemmon can make you be🫠

Wow⚡ you all got dosed hard. Throwing Stones has always had the propensity to reprise and to come out of a wheel and into a wharf rat with a Gloria is really nice. I can only imagine the great crowd interactions during set break and then the anticipation as a 2nd set opening with Shakedown would further confirm the gathering for the everyone that was there. So glad it happened and for the experts who attended. Thx for keeping us in the loop!

Always bring ear plugs. Stanleys Pub had a box of them for the Ugly Radio Rebellion Band considering it was an older audience seeing as they are a Zappa cover band. Last summer Billy Strings had them available at the soundboard area for the two Indy shows. John Entwistle had them at his merch table when he did a mini spring tour in 1996 at local bars. $1.00 and tickets were only $15.00. You know he had the cream of the crop for his band. Couldn't talk Cincinnati peeps into going to the Dayton (McGuffeys) and the Louisville (Toy Tiger) gigs, but they all showed up for the Annie's show and realized what a big deal these were. He played from midnight to 2am and it was possibly the loudest I've experienced. Later that year The Who did a Quadrophenia tour at $60.00 for coliseum shows.. I passed after getting spoiled from the $15.00 bar shows. Thunderfingers indeed! Ear plugs and peppermint candy canes for when the cotton mouth sets in and your on the rail.

I hope to contribute when it gets to 88, 89 and 90. Used AKG 460's with 60 capsules corded into a real dbx home unit (that was secured in foam as a false backing to the backpack, the dbx was converted from ac/dc to batteries encoding>D5 capture. The masters were transfer from A to D decoding properly with a dbx 224x t into a tascam CD.

These MAC and SBD reels to listen to was unheard of when I started trying to get recordings of the shows I was at in 84, 85 and 86 until the coma. When he came back we had the AKG460'S >D5 in place, with an occasional D6. However to get my first tape of a show I was at (Syracuse 10/20/84) from a solid source, I had to give this guy my only tape deck for like 3 weeks before he returned it with the two Carrier Done tapes. I know he was using my deck and his to make a ton of tapes, but didn't think badly about it because I was about to have the Syracuse tapes. Later tapes we acquired by mailing out 10-15 90 min cassette with material that someone wanted who had 10-15 shows of what i wanted. Do all the copying with flipping every 45 min, labeling, packaging and then to PO to send off. It could take weeks even months to get a package back with tapes of shows I'd choose off their list. Made connections in cities all over so boxes of tapes were going everywhere and Maxwell and TDK were making out like Charlie Sheen. Thank God for our central library so we don't all have to get copies. Thanks for the time, expertise and the thoughtfulness of those uploading. Screw read Stephen King, this much more pertinent

Recent additions is part of my daily readings esp since it's listing like every show, fun to see the names and the equipment used to capture and transfer. With today's addition it interesting to see Seattle was played 6 days before a three show onslaught in Alaska where they probably hadn't played and probably won't get back so they had to lay everything out for those shows. Then the return was 8 days later in Pauly pavilion (I think) , they never let up because there's a three night Warfield 9/25, 9/26, 9/27, starting the 30 marathon that happened in October. First Alpine show was in August 1980, Althea played almost every night. This is could be the boost effect of Brent that looks like relentless time on the road and on stage. I hadn't given much thought to the Alaska shows until now when I see them in the context of Seattle heading there and the return CA shows with not much time between and the magnitude of possibly first and last show for those heads.

Ugly Radio Rebellion a Zappa cover band out of Michigan. Ike used to play with them when they came to Cincy for 8-9 yrs, Camilla Brillo>Muffin Man, Joe's Garage, Catholic Girls, Cosmic Debris, Uncle Remus, Trouble Coming Everyday, Crew Slut, Why Does It Hurt When I Pee?, Willie The Pimp, Apostrophe, My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama, Filthy Habits, Bobby Brown, Peaches En Regalia, Honey Don't You Want a Man Like Me, Carolina Hardcore Ecstasy, lots of others, 3 set show, encore: A Whole Lotta Love. Second time these three played together. The night before in Sandusky was they're first. Very talented bass and drum. They talking about bringing Ike back for a mini tour.

Wonder if anyone saw a band in Jamaica last night?

That was about as boring as it gets which ended up being a good thing as my violin friend and I got to continue working on Evangeline>Pancho>One More Cup of Coffee and got to add a Forever Young>IKYR>Senor>Sandman (America), due to Washington's QB not showing up, but hell it was supposed to be a championship game, WTF

Got my first Golden Road to Unlimited Devotion last night at the trap. Monumental moment like getting my first St Stephen at Bonnaroo in 2004. They opened with an extremely slick transition from Sugar Magnolia into Hell in a Bucket and towards the end of the first set, getting ready for the countdown set, played Lucy in The Skies with Diamonds and Midnight Hour...Viola Lee>HSF to start the year, Promontory Ryder>St Stephen...Sisters and Brothers...China Ryder, Black Peter esp good for all of my friends

Go Cowboys! I can't believe I'm watching my alma mater here in Cincy and we're up 6-3! ☀️

With regards to your not any justice to Tomorrow Never Knows, I was talking with a diehard fan after a recent show, commenting that they're playing a lot of dead songs better than they did. (No disrespect to Jerry or any other band member) His response was they get to jam out more. Then later at the after show bar, they're were two women who had just seen their first DSO concert asking Barraco how the show was so damn good! I don't know exactly what he said except that he said beautifully and articulately that each musician is listening intently to each other through out the show adding to it as it develops. I thought that was a great way to introduce them to what they experienced that night. A big part of being on the rail is watching and listening to the interplay. Throughout the night, unexpectedly, one of the musicians would grab my attention as I was tripping on another in a way that I don't remember having had that same pronounced impact at shows in the 80's or 90's. We're fortunate to have this current lineup, all bringing knowledge and expertise to the stage.

Easy ups with sheets of tyvek hanging down the sides in case oh the dreadful wind and the rain

Pretty cool they practically opened with the course of must follow blind, without a look behind it, very generous to grace Huntington so early in the show. Can we get a link tea?

Alligator (the song) might be there too I think. I'm in.

a chair?

Wrong, turn it around you're holding it from the lit side.🥁

My sister and brother in law (the dentist) just saw the St Paul MN Eagles/Steely Dan show on the 18th and said it will be their last time as the band was noticeably old. This in comparison to when they saw them two years ago in Pittsburgh. Travelling to see the Eagles has been their DSO; however, this last show was a let down. Aerosmith is playing Columbus and when I told coworkers lower arena was $300+, the response from them was why so low? It's a shame that todays concert goers think that's normal. And when they get in the arena they're goin to have drunkin' screamers around them who want to get the most out of their $300 seats. TB use the scheme Rude did with Stones floor seats by slipping the wrist band worker $$ to band you up front instead of your very back. 😏

Once again DSO stakes the claim not to leave at the encore like heads used to do at shows. They nailed that home with Morning Dew on a work night . What a nice cap of shows from Milwaukee to Columbus. Thanks to the band, crew and all the nice people in attendance

Jack Straw Candyman MAMU> Big River Sugaree El Paso Stagger Lee It's All Over Now From The Heart of Me The Music Never Stopped Scarlet> Fire Miracle> He's Gone> The Other One> D/S> Space> Wharf Rat> Sugar OMSN Easy Wind (Lisa Harp) Werewolves. Couldn't ask for anything more at a show. Who taped this one? Was really hoping for the S/F and they took it out there

and what was the band you saw last night?

I know nobody wants to hear anything more about Billy Strings, but check this out: I got an email yesterday about "your upcoming visit" there will be door dash food and beverages delivery starting at 11am in the lot and continuing through the show (you get notified about when to go to concession, not delivery to your seat) Billy merchandise will start at noon in the lot, only one poster per ticket holder, and then there is the parking info. This past summer when we saw him in St Louis, I found a $9.00 parking lot less than a quarter of a mile away (7 min walk) whereas the main event lot (at $25.00) had cars lined up out on the highway waiting forever. My biggest concern now is to find the perfect parking. There are meters and various lots. Co-workers are asking if I'm excited about the show tomorrow night and my reply is "after I get parked" . I've learned not to get too excited until the lights go down. Even then, I'd have to wait until the standard openers were through to see if a To Lay Me Down was going to show up or some once a tour song. Also, no bags, including purses, will be allowed into Van Dal Arena for the show.

The one that stands out and I still remember how spectacular it was , esp with the sunsetting over the river for the scarlet fire is that summer time show at Annie's which is now RL in Cincy. There was a Money, Money and a St Stephen after the SF. There was also a State Bridge show that opened with Here Comes Sunshine that is my top shelf and then that Terrapin Nation show at the ledges in 07 or 08. As far recreations, the Newport in Columbus, an 84 show with a China Rider opening the second set and Zappa was played before the show and at setbreak. I remember telling my nephew that I had seen Zappa in November of 1984 at the Newport. He came away from that show saying one of the best part of the experience was how everyone was so in tune with what was playing and having fun trying to guess. Had never experienced an audience that was talking amongst everyone about every detail.
