Wow! What a total fu*king ripper!

Yikes ⚡️🍾

5/8 was one of the great shows in GD history - DUH! Not quite at the top of my list BUT it was soooo great to have such a high quality recording of a high quality show as I was cutting my teeth on this music. I was obsessed with Cornell and explored just about every nook and cranny of it. Very fond days of cranking up this show in the lot, on the beach, in the car, on my walkman - everywhere. It was many, many fans crown jewel tape of the GD!

Pretty often actually - I’d say about every 3rd show. I was convinced it was a 73 show but that playin sandwich to close the 1st set had me scratching my head. The music this weekend was just soooo good. It’s only rival was the incredible people I got to share it with

Mother Nature held on just long enough to squeeze in the show and then unleashed her rage - driving home after was maybe not the best idea...

Couldn't resist:

I liked the Stella Blue the most even though I hadn’t lived enough life to really get it. I remember being shocked about 2 things: The fact that the band members never moved from their spots and were not even slightly demonstrative. Weird. Second - It was BOTH their drummers birthday’s!!! What were the odds? Turns out those odds weren’t very good after all.

Today is the 30th anniversary of my first Grateful Dead show. http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1988/4/11 I really didn’t quite understand the hype - it was like an inside joke that thousands were in on. I skipped school and went (was taken) on to Chicago. It was like nothing I’d even imagined - my DNA got changed and that was it. Like it was written in my soul.......❤️

Somebody spent way too much time lecturing me on how I should raise my children. Apparently raising principled boys of character and compassion wasn't good enough. Well here's how I see it:

I went directly to the I'll Be With Thee first. That was indeed sweet. Thanks to the taper and BOO to the jackwagons who were having their cocktail party when a DSO show happened to break out unexpectedly - geez. Their tickets costs the same as everyone elses I guess and more ticket sales for DSO ain't bad
