I also passed on the Bethlehem show due to the way the venue was setup and pricing. It's only a hour away from me. I opted to go to the Freehold, NJ show (2 hrs.) on Saturday. Got a ticket for $30, GA outdoor venue. It looks like Wind Creek Casino does setup some concerts as GA all on the floor. Not sure why DSO wouldn't be setup that way. I believe it was the 1st time they played there so maybe they'll tweak some things if they go back. The Musikfest Cafe show last year (Cornell) was packed with people so if it wasn't a sellout it had to be close to one. Not every venue can be as cool as Penn's Peak!

Did Jeff M. eat a handful of Valium before the show?? #MethodActor

We got a Hero Dose of some fine Dark Star Orchestra on this night. The juice was flowing a little harder than the night before. There was spice in the air. Box of Rain was moving. I couldn't help but think about Phil during the song, but then I thought about Grahame Lesh and what that song must mean to him. Mission in the Rain was divine. Always love when I can catch one of them. Think that was my first Baby Don't You Do It, & Can't Find My Way Home. The second set was straight Tungsten hexafluoride, very heavy stuff. Terrapin, Shakedown, St. Stephen, NFA ~ All rockers. And then they Let it Rock to end the show. Once again grate venue, awesome 2 night run. Got some skiing in at Elk mountain an hr. north of the venue Sat. Fun times were had by all. Thanks DSO! ⛷️🎵🎹🥳🚬🧉 -

DSO kicked some major butt on Day One at the Fred Morgan Kirby Center. Loved how the first set closed with LLR, Scarlet>Fire. Was a pretty quick Drums, went up towards the bathroom then heard them kick into The Other One and pulled a quick U-turn. Lots of great jamming. Don't recall seeing a Strange Man before. They set the stage for an epic 2nd nite for sure -
Even though it says Sold Out, if you click on the Sat Tickets link (from DSO's site) there are verified resale tickets available I ended up getting a 2 day pass after seeing Saturday's show was sold out, paid like $50 more than if I would've bought them separately when they went on sale. Seems like people/corps/AI are buying up all the tickets then reselling them for a profit.

LFG! will be blowing 30mph at the Peak. Makes for nippy smoke breaks. My AlgoreRhythm has them doing an elective. I'd like to a hear a Standing on the Moon, Liberty, When I paint my Masterpiece, New Speedway But DSO knows better than me and will deliver what's needed

Happy Birthday to the Greatest Band in the Land. Never stop doing what you're doing. There's no other band I'd rather see tuning up on stage. Official Countdown to the Peak is on...14 days!

Great ambassador for the Dead in the Delaware Valley. He would always say "God bless the Grateful Dead" You'd always catch him in tie dye. One of the last true disc jockeys. He was a walking party Here's a video of him at one of the Cardboard Classics taking quit a bump https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMMa92-T-yI Here's a cool video of him interviewing Phil https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_fFtP7YD08

Barton Hall - May 8, 1977 General Admission: $7.50 Set 1 New Minglewood Blues Loser El Paso They Love Each Other Jack Straw Deal Lazy Lightnin' Supplication Brown Eyed Women Mama Tried Row Jimmy Dancin' in the Streets Set 2 Scarlet Begonias Fire on the Mountain Estimated Prophet St. Stephen Not Fade Away St. Stephen Morning Dew One More Saturday Night Filler: Ripple Woke up yesterday with a weird feeling that DSO was gonna do something special at the base of some stacked steel in the little town of Bethlehem, PA. I wasn't prepared for what they layed down. The joint was jumping, packed in like sardines on the floor. First set highlights for me were Jack Straw, Supplication, & Dancin'. Reality didn't set in until set break when I realized what we were witnessing and what the 2nd set was going to be like. DSO didn't disappoint brining the thunder in the 2nd set. They opened a portal that brought the spirits of Jerry, Phil, and Keith on to the stage where they collectively all had grins and nodded in approval. I don't think there are 7 other people on the planet who could have pulled off what happened in that second set (sans a couple drummers who could have sat in) and it only took them 3,343 shows to get dialed in. Truly a special night. Any time you get the chance to see DSO on a weekday in Pennsylvania don't waste the opportunity. Epic things happen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nw0IkqQTPcI
