Fear The Lion!

I think this one might be it Speedway was 1970 to 1991 - I think 70-89? I think

No Deadbase . soooo: What song has the longest hiatus of from last time played to next time played? I’m going to guess New Speedway Boogie. Whatcha Got?

Here's my Annual lovefest with the 1990 MicNichols, Denver, CO run! 12/12 + 12/13 get all the shine for the A-Mazing song selection but don't sleep on 12/14! 12/14 has got a few of *the best I ever saw Live* : To Lay Me Down, Foolish Heart, Women-R-Smarter, He's Gone, Knockin on Heavens Door https://archive.org/details/gd1990-12-14.sbd.miller.89127.sbeok.flac16 Other than TLMD, a weird list of <best I ever saw> but they were crafted sooo damned well. This whole run simply crackles with fierce energy from Jerry ⚡ 12/12 had me 5th row, smack dab in front of Jerry (Thanks, Ruby!). I'll Never, ever forget the time I had with my twin brother at these shows. Till we meet again on the other side, Keith ❤️ I'll always treasure the memory of this time together - it was the Best of times. https://archive.org/details/gd1990-12-12.sbd.miller.109289.flac16 https://archive.org/details/gd1990-12-13.sbd.miller.108981.flac16

Where there's a will, there's a way

I streamed most of that Hyryder 3rd set and it was indeed bonkers! Best I’ve heard them sound - Electric ⚡️ Woulda streamed the whole thing but I found a local dead cover band while visiting my mom in Ann Arbor! Wasn’t expecting too much but they brought IT! This place was tinsy-tiny - dance floor held about 30. Judging by my soreness after, it was a good time! Deadicated at The Rumpus Room, Chelsea, MI - 12/10/22 The Way You Do The Things You Do Waiting For A Miracle Dire Wolf Run Rudolph Run Whisky In The Jar Stop That Train Positively 4th Street Black Throated Wind Rubin And Cherise > Let It Snow Sugaree > Let It Snow Uncle John’s Band Mr. Charlie Doin That Rag > Till The Morning Comes Greatest Story Ever Told Cassidy Cats Down Under The Stars Eye’s Of The World > Drums > Space Mississippi Half Step > Going Down The Road E: Brown Eyed Women

Why doesn’t Santa Claus have any children? Because he only comes once a year and it’s down your chimney

Not in the cards for me. Gr8fulpair?

Being Deadbase-free myself, I'm still gonna guess that the bulk of these 2nd-setters happened in 1976 + 1977. Could be wrong.....

A woman walks out of the shower, winks at her boyfriend, and says, "Honey, I shaved myself down there. Do you know what that means?" The boyfriend says, "Yeah, it means the drain is clogged again."

Mouth Agape 😶 U of M played great despite their strength being silenced in the first half. Shocked OSU was so poor with making their own adjustments. G-O B-L-U-E

Without a running game UofM is gonna have a long day. Too many 3rd and longs so far
