  1. Rewatching Hyryder's set and for some irritating reason they show the drummer during Charlie's leads. Actually they show everyone else more than him and ET might as well have not been there. There is zero footage of him. WTF, not a del a production, this is not a video from the vault director quality. Overly produced, way too many camera changes annoying and disturbing like most production live music video
  2. Backpacks with false backs worked. When opening the backpack at the door your hands are holding the false backing in place and they're concentrating on what's in the backpack. But, you had to remember to have something in the backpack. One time when going into the Warfield with this custom false back backpack we only had a copy of a physician drug reference guide and a sweatshirt. Not really appreciate as it was summer. We also put equipment in the back of our arms. By lifting up your arms for the search, they'd start patting down on the chest working down to the feet. Most stealth tapers also had a back up D6 going in with another person. The AKG 460's and their battery packs and two 6 foot cables along with a battery converted dbx unit and the D5 was a mound of equipment that was daunting at times when there was only two of us going in
  3. We're coming up early Friday to get the full weekend. I haven't done Jubilee after being spoiled by the ledges for 3 yrs. My wingman is in the process of creating a keg of homebrew and I planning on filling a cooler with three days of vegan delights: quinoa nori roll, jalapeno poppers, tamari tofu fillets, diced up garlic tempeh and if I can figure out how to make my sourdough breads during a work week. He's bringing the keg and I'm bringing the food I was taught at the telluride bluegrass festival to have foods prepared so more time can be spent at the stage. can't wait to hear the sound system they bring in for this event ⚡
  4. This sure is some clean audio How nice to watch without leaving home and paying $3000 to get there although I'm planning parties for the next two nights. Soo looking forward to the upcoming DSO event
  5. Just getting in, positively 4th, oteil making it real, grateful for the stream
  6. I think there was the show, a Sunday afternoon show, at the Greeks, TDIGDH where it was so sweltering hot that our mic stand guy collapsed from the heat in the second set. It was his turn to sport the AKG 460's in a horn hat with cables running down his pant leg to a D5 operated by the second crew member that set. I didn't make this series but picked up the equipment after the four shows in Alpine to record the rest of summer tour. Didn't do Oxford Plains, regrettably after hearing the fantasy.
  7. I've tried to paste links throughout the day, no luck. Very big day 4/6/84 my first long distance drive for a show and clearly remember the china ryder and eyes and the mushrooms and using the cc my dad gave me for emergencies at college. He didn't think buying a case of beer in Las Vegas as an emergency and took that away. It was my only contribution to the trip for our group heading out of Laramie. Then 4/6/85 the only show of the Philly three to close out spring where I learned the hard lesson that you have to tour the dead as you can see what happened at the two I missed. I was chasing after that mistake
  8. I remember clearly, the first night, bringing full cups of beer down to our 2nd row center seats as Scarlet Fire was starting up after set break, spilling as the joyful spinning was beginning, so happy to be with good friends up close for the celebration. Then the second night the coveted High Time gifted to us all in the first. Jerry loved us all so much he just had to play a little dark star to finish off this series.
  9. https://archive.org/embed/gd1988-03-27.schoeps.unknown.gotfob.88250.sbeok.flac16 Let's not forget Hampton 88 with the first Thin Man and the return of TLMD. This is a really good quality recording. Never miss a Sunday. Security at this series was so lax by the third show we were taking in six packs of brew along with recording equipment and setting up camp on the floor at sweet FOB spot.
  10. my only Greek shows and this one was kinda a clunker The last fire before the coma.
  11. I believe there is a dentist on the board and maybe a doctor or someone with similar experience. My long time guitar playing friend had a stroke that left fluid on his brain. He going in for surgery to remove it since meds aren't doing it. The reference he has is from a co worker who had this same surgery being told odds are in his favor; however, he didn't survive. The surgeon says he has 87-90% of making it through. I was with him last night and he is terrified. He's going to get on April 4th. Does anyone here know of someone who had this done and can give us another perspective? Thank you for letting me post. As you all know this forum is a place I go to lots and respect all who engage. I'll probably delete this after thinking about what I just did.
  12. That must be what makes that the 12/31/78 so exceptional, esp the harmonics going into it. The last version only the first verse was needed to get Jerry on the slide with the leads. Thx DD⚡
  13. Whenever you can go see Billy Strings. Every note of his three nights in Cincinnati were golden. Everyone I met was going to Jubilee. Every song is always changing and evolving. This fame and fortune couldn't have happened to a better person. Gonna have to wait for that Stranglehold
  14. Kingfish every song is choice Speedway > Fantasy>China Doll and a Satisfaction. But then I look at the rest and every song is top ten material.
  15. Been enjoying the reviews and look forward to tonight's
  16. Benefit show at RL for the Freestore Food bank in Cincy. I Dig Pig opened followed by Fairbanks then two sets of Pushing Up Daisies. Nothing spectacular except I learned that the owner has a clause with the bands that if they play Shakedown Street they lose their pay. The last time Hyryder played there they did a Shakedown and that was their donation to the benefit put on by local promoter Zinger. Very average musicianship and predictable setlists. I took off at 8:30, started at 6 and I had made the rounds to see my people and meet two new friends. It was their first time at RL and of course they were blown away by the venue and plan to come back for the Hyryder April 14th show. A lot of folks are not going to the upcoming three Billy Strings shows next week due to the terrible James Bradley venue. Apparently the Goose nye shows put them on ice after the nights were over.
  17. Two of my most favorite musicians Emmylou on Friday and Lee Owen with Born Cross Eyed on Saturday. .. I was out on a limb in Atlanta while the BCE experience was like being in the fold. It's always reassuring see Too Much Fun on the dance floor. There was a newcomer who asked who was the new guitarist sitting in, he had seen the shows where Mr. Owen was absent. He was in full force along with everyone else in the band. Hopefully he will get the 20 yrs of born cross eyed I've been graciously treated to starting at Terrapin Hill to the perfect Zbar. They got decent food, an outside area, a couple of six inch levels leading down to the stage which is waist high. Hoping for good weather for the folks hitting up the next to set of DSO concerts. Touch to open Death Don't to close and a lot of trippy landscapes through out. Even though I don't have any Cincy folks going to Jubilee I'm psyched to wonder the grounds and meet up with the people I haven't met yet and hopefully run into forum folks and to jam out with Dark Star
  18. Report from inside the arena. It is packed completely full. Funny thing about tickets is I got my Emmylou ticket for next Fridays show in Atlanta the minute the sale started getting 13 row center for 79.99, now there's a ticket in that row asking $256, it took awhile to fill the Symphony Hall but it did sellout regular tickets leaving only expensive verified resales. The tickets I got this year orchC row H are the exact same 13, 14 seats that they sold me when she played there in 2019. One and done is hard as once in the fold it breaks my heart to not have a follow up. I know DSO fans can appreciate having to have a string of shows when heading to the first. They did us right with the two November 2021 shows, especially dropped the 85 Riverbend
  19. Star lake amphitheatre in burgettstown PA. Anybody ever do the dead there or any intell on camping near the venue?
  20. I just got word from one of the officiating refs of today's game: Eagles 33 Thiefs 23
  21. I thought hsf was a Warlocks breakout in 1989?
  22. I went to visit a psychic. I knocked on the door. She asked "who is it?" So I left.
  23. Looking forward to three shows coming up in three months! Enjoying the field reports and setlists from the current west coast shows!
  24. Not much of a hiatus, but a notable 76, 77 and 78, coming back solidly in 79 with it's new pairing Alabama Getaway > GSET (think Riverbend 85 as a rendition), then Pittsburgh 89 tripping with GSET>Bertha Weird evolution of both songs as they changed radically. Lots to consider, esp the actual words of each song bleeding together for one message, one song. Both uniquely Grateful Dead and indicative of Jerry and Bobby alternating songs at a show.
