Rude

I don’t know why I thought this was a small venue. Isn’t there a small ballroom in Denver that DSO has played. I googled mission ballroom and realized it’s about 4k capacity. Looks like a great spot to get down.

He needs to stock up on black sweat pants and black tees with an occasional red tee thrown in there. He was smoking a cig so he’s got that part down. did Jerry ever wear a full tie dye outfit or is that creative license. I’m sure there will be a lot of that. A pure Jerry docudrama would likely be a tad boring or at least based on his last 15 years. Play show, hide out, go to Hawaii.

There’s been a bunch of dso shows where I begged for a ballad to take a breather. With the last couple years of fewer shows and a more sedentary life, I think we’ve all lost a step or 2 on our dance game compared to pre pandemic so I need a ballad or long tuning every other song. Play Freebird.......ballad style!!

I hope Eaton drops one on archive.

That’s a great Atlanta dead band name for sure!!!!

Starting out with a 69 to begin tour in Tahoe is the way to do it. Haven’t caught a 69 since Louisville in 2018 but caught 4 Straight of their 69s over an 18 month stretch from ‘16-‘18. This was actually the 1st 69 recreation since 11/19. Ugh. I knew I should have called social services and said I need a foster parent for 2 weeks so I can fly out west to see some shows. Those foster parents only make like $600 a month so that’s pro rated to $20 a day. That’s some cheap babysitting and pretty sure they are available at a moments notice. The Baby Kennel chain is pretty expensive in our area at like $700 a week. That would add up after a long tour plus they only play Christian music all day long but they don’t allow dancing as that leads to fornication. The boss likes Talking heads followed by Dead, so that’s a nonstarter and he dances a lot so don’t want him getting lashed while we are away.

That is the worst analogy I’ve ever heard. Bobby being on stage didn’t cost dso a shot in the jam band finals. This is music, not a scored sport. The creator of this music sat in and for 40 minutes they played a slightly different style of music with a legend. You’d likely hate jazz fest as at 2am on Frenchmen St there are tons of collaborations where a member from 5 different bands come together to do something different. My suggestion is see more shows. The more you see, the more you crave something like this that’s a bit different. Gr8fulpair and I freaking loved when Donna joined the band in Birmingham for a Jerry band show. We saw something unique. Bobby has joined the band like 3x or so ever?

how many are you doing. Did I last see you in Utah or Asheville?

I’d be thrilled to see bobby join dso for 5 songs even if it is slow tempo. It’s Bobby FFS. The band loves it too. It lends credibility and the articles about Bobby playing with them get shared across dead sites leading to more potential ticket buyers in the future. It’s good for the fans and the band!!!! Eaton plays Bobby guitar. He’s happy to have a sit while his idol fills in.

well my friends are spread out over the country and we get together for show runs. Locally you’d be extremely lucky to get 10 friends to do anything much less traveling. I’ve probably got more close friends from dso shows than I have locally considering kids, life and jobs get in the way like you say after 40.

Boring

The current reality sort of discourages a whole tour. You don’t have many who are on the road too which takes a bit of the fun away and covid restrictions are a cherry on top of the shit burger that’s our reality atm. I’ve been pulled on whole tours with peer pressure. The more the merrier and without friends on tour, it’s not the same. If 10 friends were like Tahoe baby, I maybe would have snuck out there for the weekend, but alas no. I think the lack of pull from different friend groups really hurts attendance. If your local friend group isn’t going to a local show for whatever reason you may not either. We are pulling some St Louis friends to Jrad in the Lou right before a 3 show dso run, but if we weren’t going, they wouldn’t either as they need that peer pressure. I figure I’ve gotten friends over the years to purchase 400 dso tickets and one year we had 7-8 from my hometown pack up for jubilee. MC was a huge peer pressure driver of ticket sales. He was maybe one of the best dso promoters ever as he’d make peeps get in his car to hit the next show. I was nrver like that but I put my share of peer pressure on friends be it local or far away. I think that’s sort of gone since the start of the pandemic. Turn and face the strange ch ch ch changes

So you have the right to spout your views but those musicians can’t. Talk about being a snowflake. Oh no. A musician pulled their music for their beliefs. I’m going to lose my mind. Joe Rogan can do what he wants but they can’t. Got it. It’s the mind of the right wing. They want to cancel anyone who doesn’t think like them and don’t understand the hypocrisy of their stance.

It was sad to see him have to be golf carted in and sadder to see the golf cart get stuck trying to turn around to take him 4 feet closer to the stage. You just don’t survive severe obesity into old age like that. You don’t want to see talented people like that die. A human body can survive most things into old age, but severe obesity isn’t one of them. He’s 68 years old. That’s pretty much a miracle and not to be morbid, but making it to jubilee at that age with that health condition is in no way assured.

saw him at the caverns earlier this year. I don’t think he’s long for this earth sadly. You get to a point to where you either decide to make a change to live or you don’t.

St. Louis vs cincy in the SB Mahomes had an epic collapse starting with 5 secs left in the 2nd Q. Crazy. It looked like he forgot how to throw. He was putrid after a hot start. then Stafford tried to lose and had the easiest int of the year dropped. Wow.

My buddy is like Burrow won the game. I’m like bro, Tennessee was driving. Your defense won the game. Burrow refused to throw the ball away and took 9 sacks. On at least 3-4 of those he should have thrown it away and he took a sack in FG range end of the game that forced a punt when it was tied 16-16. The only thing you can’t do at the 35 is take a sack. If your 1st read isn’t open on 3rd at the 35, you throw it away.

KC can’t get to the QB like Tennessee. They also don’t have an inept QB like Tennessee.

So we are in for Cincy, DC and Richmond. Booked a direct RT flight from cincy to Reagan and then it asked do you want to upgrade to 1st class for $75 a person. I’m like hell yes!!! RT 1st class for less than $250. Thats a deal!!! Actually used miles that have been accumulating for a while. Renting a car at the airport Saturday morning and driving to Richmond then back to DC early Sunday to catch a flight back. We contemplated doing Panic in Vegas as it’s on her actual birthday but this will be our belated 50/30 birthday celebration and didn’t want to have to do Vegas in a freaking mask at Caesar’s properties. Screw that. Going to do JRAD the weekend before to get us in shape to be ready to dance as long as the pageant eliminates their mask mandate. Doing athletic activities in a mask just isn’t for me. What’s funny is we had JRAD tix from their original 2020 shows in St. Louis and it’s been rescheduled a whopping 4x.

Game 1 Sunday the Rams did their best to lose fumbling 4x in a 30 minute span. Game 2 both teams were desperate to win. Crazy games

Burrow needs to learn to throw the ball away. When he took the sack that took them out of FG range late, I thought he was gonna cost you the game. Luckily tannehill showed his true stripes. Throwing into triple coverage with 20 secs left in a tied game. Boneheaded move. Those 2 games yesterday both had defenses that dominated the offenses. It shows why a dominant interior D lineman is key to a great defense. Chase is a game changing receiver. That kid is fantastic. He’s impossible to cover.

It looks like a prototype, not a production model. You need a small fan to keep those pants filled up with air vs wire mesh they are using which would likely rust from dancing sweat. Then you would have a very squeaky outfit as well as needing tetanus shots.

This will be the hot fashion at Deadco LA shows

Jake Jolivette went easy on the dead and phish that game. There was one game where he had 3 dead, 3 phish songs and finished it off with Tuesday’s gone on a rare tuesday game. my Cowboys were horrendous. 14 penalties. 3 of their 1st 5 drives were destroyed with penalties. 4 of their 1st 5 drives ended with 3rd and 13+ failures. You can’t win in nfl with 3rd and longs and not 3rd and 16’s. My favorite was a 3rd and 4 with 2 straight false starts leading to 3rd and 14. After all that they had a shot and a dropped 2nd and 11 then a 4th and 11 where the receiver slipped turning to catch it at the 20. FIRE MCCARTHY!!!
