They killed it tonight. Straight fire all night long. And yes the outro-solo on Comes a Time was perfection. The segue from NFA back into St Stephen was so freaking tight. Jack Straw was a monster, as was Minglewood. Great show from these guys. I really like DSO.
Last night's DSO show was fun. The FOTM jam and drums into the Other One were both excellent.
However, I'm going to say that I won't be back. Somehow the scene just didn't do it for me. The musicians do what they do well, but recreating something that has been gone for a long time wasn't hitting the right spots for me.
Sums up how I feel about dso. Jrad, while great musicians, are so far from the dead I don't see the point (they're fine if you can separate actual dead songs from the blazing guitar and drum fury). No soul, but that's not the point of jrad I guess. I wonder if they could write their own songs, rock out, and be content w 1/10 of the audience. Or just keep some dead song chord changes to jam from and skip the lyrics. I'll be at dead and co in boulder cause my wife wants to go. Last year was half-decent nostalgia trip. I kinda miss further w jk, but that probably was good to have only lasted for a little while... got stale in the end. Coming up on 30 yr anniversary of my first show. Am I old yet? Thank god for tapers.Quote:

Sorry wyeaster.
I truly miss seeing shows in Eugene, that was such a great time place. Pull in the day before, find the right spot and stay for 4 days then head up to Cougar Hot Springs or out to the coast. Fresh salmon out of the river for breakfast, fresh cherries picked right off the trees at the girl scout HQ across the street and all the fresh veggies you could want from the farmers market down the street.
Happy veneta day!!! :D

Was low in the paint working my home field advantage that night. Ripper.
That was a great run. So many moments in the memory banks from B.B. The h-s-f in particular. Then navigating the swamplands after the show, losing our ride, ...the adventures never stopped.Quote:

That was the beginning of the end for me. Scene was turning dark. Much different than 1983 when I went to my first show.
I can't even imagine the horror that kid went through.
Sad stuff
That feeling when you discover (or rediscover, in my case) a show! 1970-6-24. Wow!
After the let down of the last Dave's Pick. The RFK boxset came last night. The multitrack recording really brings out Bobby ( who Healy would turn down in the mix). It's pretty darn good. Brent is in top form, and if I'm not mistaken (didn't look it up) I hear Hornsby on piano.
That tour ripped. I missed rfk but saw foxboro, buf and giants.
Apparently Hornsby played accordion during some of the first set (yawn) and keys only on women r

That Park West show was so chill and such a killer scene being on private property so we could do pretty much anything we wanted without worry about the UT tough legal scene. Leaving was another story, it was a solid line of cars pulled over heading to I80 but we went the other way to head home to Steamboat. I flew home for a few days to catch a couple of shows on the EC tour and saw three at MSG in September then saw two of the three at Shoreline in October. That whole year was filled with absolutely awesome shows, glad I saw so many. I would debate whether the 5/2 show was better than Easter, 8/11 on the Rocks or 8/20 at Park West.Quote:

Dave's 25 showed up yesterday 1977.11.06 Binghampton NY. Great show, the Scarlet>Fire>Good Lovin' is fantastic!
Listened to this show this morning, forgot how good it was although not surprising considering the time period and +1 on the Scarlet>Fire>Good Lovin despite some sloppy moments but the Samson to open the set is better than average, even for 77.Quote:

RIP Barlow. Sad day.
I'm glad that he participated in the mega documentary. RIP

Definitely! So many incredible songs that would never have been without him.
