i am not going to sit here and complain about something I have zero control over.
It was a hell of a good time in the lot and inside.
whoever said it sounded like Bobby was struggling in the beginning last night... I 1000% agree. Thought his voice was going to blow.
Not a fan of Mayer's singing but when he sings 'althea'...he does it good for me.
and that other one>dew..... made my night
can't wait for Bobby & Wolf bros to tour again......that to me is the best post-Dead stuff happening now.
GL, very little turn over in the Grateful Dead. Keyboardists died or became a shitshow. Pigpen was not good enough to continue with the band as they became bigger and better. The core has been there forever until Jerry died. The Grateful Dead died when he did. I'm shocked Billy came back and went with Dead n Co. He was not a fan of Furthur and called it a money grab directly to my friend.
They're having fun and making money, so good for them.
The sound at the Gorge on the lawn was outrageously good. By far the best sound I've ever heard at a venue with more than 5000 people, and probably as good as I've heard anywhere. Just spectacular.Quote:

Don't get me wrong, I will see the Wolf Bros again if they come to town, but it's funny how we are all different. Fuck me, maybe I am just becoming a John Mayer fanboy. Wolf sounded dope as fuck last night.Quote:

Yup. Don't get me wrong, I dig Pigpen's vocals and harmonica playing, but he was getting lost in the band. This is well documented.Quote:

Look I'm not hard core into this point but we just disagree. In my world, the Dead died with Jerry. It's how I feel.Quote:

Dead & Slo.
See you at Phish.
Because, well it’s funny

That is funny, and there is another one to put together the full two-night run.
Foxboro is the first time I've seen them live and I wasn't Blown Away but it was a good time. Who is going to Martha's Vineyard to see Phil and Friends ?
Wmvy just played new Speedway Boogie and it wasn't a dead show anything just in rotation. Call it whatever you want, dead and Company make a lot of people happy. That's good enough for me

great show and really held it together. my favs was fire, dont ease (Bob was fired up for this), and estimate. I was into bass line that night, oteil is so good. best dead and co show I have seen.
Maybe this is well know, but it’s new to me. THIS is why D&C is not, and will never be, TGD.

The Dead had set lists too
and telepromters .... still couldn’t help jerry remember the words.
I feel like such a loser, the boys just played 4 good shows within an hour or so of my house and it wasn't in the budget so I didn't go to any of them. It's 35 years (and a few months) since I saw my first show and it was at Nassau Coliseum.
26 people got arrested. Sounds like a bit of a shitshow outsideQuote:

Both David Gans and Gary Lambert, (about as in depth of knowledge as you’ll find, IMO), have mentioned multiple times when asked the question. Now I could certainly be slightly off but from what my ears have heard when listening to Tales From the Golden Road is the boys likely started with rough outlines when Keith joined the band. Not sure how that evolved. Same when Brent came on. Sounds to me like they became more rigid with the sets. The hosts never seem to say exactly when they used them or that it happened every night. More so, they indicate the band used set lists as a tool to help the new guys develop. Shit, I can’t imagine coming into a band with that extensive of a catalog.Quote:

If my memory serves me right, Big Steve Parish also talks about formation of set lists in his book. Could be dreaming there tho.
No first hand knowledge but I’d put my $ on the GD used set lists at least as a guideline for a decent chunk of their touring history. Just my .02. Doesn’t really matter to me though. I loved the shit out of every show I saw, even the really bad nights at the end.
I remember reading this a long time ago and just got motivated to find it.

^^^thats always been my understanding. Bob and Jerry would discuss the first few songs of the first set before heading on stage and might actually follow that. Similar to opening of the second set.
Of course by the late 80s, the sets were pretty well structured but they still weren’t using a list of the entire show taped to the stage like most other bands of the era.
I grew up a mile and a half from the coliseum (closer for a while) and used to walk there as a kid, saw lots of shows there and felt bad when they played there as well and didn't go, but by then (mid 80's) I wasn't going to NY shows anymore (and nothing but outdoor shows later on). I think by then it was harder getting tickets outside the shows and the parking lot wasn't as much fun with constant police presence in many places (coliseum included).Quote:

Tour is back on. I’m hitting up ATL for sure but those Wrigley shows have me thinking about a road trip.
