My 21 year old self could barely comprehend what was happening on stage when Branford came out that night. I’m so glad that it was well documented. I missed the Ontario shows (Mrs P didn’t have exams and saw those shows too) but that was a hell of a tour.Quote:

38 years ago tonight, I got on the bus.
Someone in this thread or another was saying how the Dead were not political. For the most part they were not outwardly political, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to read between the lines with them over the years.
This vid just popped into my feed. Go to the 2:45 mark and you'll see what Bobby thinks of Trump.

This one was a hoot. This night and the following got the city’s brass all fired up. The streets were a mess which sucked but it was party. Worth a spin if you haven’t heard.
Hmmm…I guess I suck at the internet and can’t figure out copy and paste from the ReListen app. Look it up. I think you guys will be pleased.
Happy Bicycle Day, Deadheads.

I definitely regret bailing on heading to Oxford after Rochester in ‘88.
I went to SPAC and Oxford that summer. We camped by the little airstrip outside of the racetrack. It was a party. I was under one of the massive delay towers during that insane Jack Straw, never heard bigger bass bombs than that. Phil was possessed!
In retrospect, I'm not proud that I got into SPAC during a gate rush in the back of the lawn but it is a funny short story to tell.
On another note - Tucker Carlson interviewing Phil Lesh several years back: https://www.wpafilmlibrary.com/videos/165411
Black Throated Wind, 8/27/72 Veneta, OR.
Com' get it!
TIGDH - Robert Hunter wrote Ripple, Brokedown Palace, and To Lay Me Down in one afternoon.
That fact has always amazed me.
The show opening The Music Never Stopped from 5/26/77 could be the best ever version for me
This just popped up on my feed, it’s outstanding. Newly remastered. Heavy Phil mix, just the way I like it!

Just watched whole show of jgb 9/1/90 on hazards channel- there’s not enough volume to do that justice.

Wow the scene was so chill back then. The first time ever saw a hacky-sack was 1980, that’s pretty wild.
Doesn’t it make you wonder who had broken his heart before they left for Europe?Quote:

Speaking of Phil, is there anyone that Brent couldn't make sound better? ;)

Oh and Bobby's shirt.....
Always loved, Tons of Steel, Jerry’s country-twang tone was perfect for this song.
I've been on a Dark Star kick lately and came across Oklahoma City Fairgrounds 10/19/73. A slower, melodic journey that I'm really digging.

Belt up for the minglewood! On gas from there!
Happy Birthday to Robert Hunter! I’m heading down to Boston to see DSO tonight.
Also 1985 was my favorite year seeing the band. 20 years old and ready to dose at any given time!
