For some of us, part of this DSO experience is reliving the past. But truly speaking in this case, the past comes up on me- so the past is reliving me. I did not attend the Long Island shows but when I saw Revolution in the setlist I was immediately transported back to the Olympic Arena Lake Placid and Carrier Dome Syracuse circa 1983. Just from reading the set list. This fall tour 2018 has been very special - four magnificent shows for me. If I ever get the nerve to share 3/25/90 experience that came around again this 11/17/18 in Albany, I will. It is ultra personal and I'd have to ask the other person involved before putting in a public forum. I'm not the first person to say, "Praise DSO".

This forum is for REVIEW of shows and this thread was intended to be specifically about the Penn's Peak show. Since, apparently, there is nothing more to say on that subject it is now closed.

I saw them do 4.22.86 on 4.22.17. My first Visions since JK. Fun show although I was hoping to be a little more lathered up before Visions sprung out of nowhere - I was barely into my 'popcorn'. Very happy memories - until I got home that is.... Glad they rolled it out again!

I can't imagine ANY deadheads from the 70s talking this lingo,

Yes yes yes PG. Winter dormancy,,time for root growth,,gathering energy for spring bust out...all part of the natural cycle. The seeds that were silent all burst in to bloom and decay... night comes so quiet, it's close on the heels of the day... The February run lines up so nicely with the returning of the light...cool way to celebrate Imbolc! 🍁

I follow this intuitive healer and her latest blog talked about the end of summer and descent into fall that, for many, is all fine if you talk about cozy sweaters and pumpkin spice, but not the death and decay that comes with it. I have been learning to slow down in the winter, sit by the fire with books, craft and enjoy slow stews and the quiet introspective hibernation where the time is ruled more by the moon than the sun. I find this lack of struggle against the season changes to be nourishing and more in line with what my body is telling me to do. Last year, the 4 day run after Christmas and back to work after traveling left me upside down striving to find up again. It would be diff if I didn’t have to travel of course. About Feb the promise of March and longer days I perk up and looking forward to the travel to begin to spread my wings again. 💗
