Wow 2 outdoor stages in March in New York. I’m guessing they will have toasty heaters for the band onstage.

Lots of friends here affected. We didn’t know the extent because we couldn’t reach many for a few days. Send home builders and contractors. It’s going to take years to rebuild. Some good friends are living on their bottom floor of their house a wall is missing on their main floor plus some of the roof but they are lucky they still have most of their home intact. A few houses over it’s just a pile of rubble. It went 20 miles south of us so we are lucky.

I have a ton of them on my ultimate dead drive. They sound great. Plus you get to hear the local DJ chat it up before the dead starts each set. Very smart move by the dead getting a radio station to play your show on a Friday and Saturday night 8-midnight. I bet that created a lot of fans.

My boring list is live dead. I know that dark star by heart skeletons from the closet. Bmg music club ftw!! europe 72. Omg that was transformational. reckoning- the spatial sound quality on this was spectacular. without a net. The 1st time we had a board of the late 80s on CD. I literally played that Althea every time I started my car. I had this 88 Toyota Supra with a targa top that was always removed and would cruise the bars to see if my friends were there and turn that Althea all the way up to be cool. It’s why I still sing come on Georgia it’s Saturday night. dicks picks 1. Getting that gorgeous 73 board on CD was amazing. 1st time I heard here comes sunshine. Even though it was only 1 CD it was gold and being 1st song that HCS was played a ton. I had no friends that were tape traders so I had to rely on releases back then. Then I found sugarmegs and burned hundreds of CDs and really learned the dead. dso also introduced me to so many songs I didn’t know like Masons children, pride of cucamonga as well as so many one or few time covers the dead did.

I’m not saying they are a playoff team but think they are one of the 3 best. It’s like the undefeated 2007 patriots who lost to Eli in the SB. They were better than the giants but lost to them. Michigan has come on strong. They peaked at the right time and that DE of theirs is spectacular. He actually may be a successful nfl player even though Dallas and many other teams have bitten into the fools gold on Michigan D linemen and lost. Taco charlton still leaves a bad taste in my mouth when TJ watt was taken right after him. Ugh.

I didn’t say they deserved a playoff spot but I think they are one of the top 3 teams. They weren’t ready to play Michigan. That’s for sure but they were dominating teams all year. They lost game 1 to Oregon but OSU has been a notoriously bad team out of the gate in the past decade. They have some really bad wins in the opening weeks.

Georgia was completely dominant all year long. Their defense allowed 6.9 pts per game. They allowed 7 TDs in 12 games. They finished 12-1. Bama went 9-1 vs FPI top 40 teams. Bama played 10 top 40 FPI teams this year which is nuts. Georgia went 4-1 vs top 40 FPI in the easier East but they dominated all comers. Cincinnati deserves the playoff spot but they didn’t play the way Georgia did all year and Houston wasn’t even an FPI top 40 team. Cincy was 1-0 vs top 40 FPI teams. Cincy can prove they belong by playing Bama close. luckily a 12 team playoff will be coming soon. I still think Ohio state is a top 3 team this year and I despise OSU. This year they dominated after the slow start and the snow game in Michigan. In a 12 team playoff they would have a good shot at winning it all.

Losing Metchie with a torn ACL only means you have 1 1st rounder receiver to cover. But you have to get pressure on Bryce.

it’s definitely exciting that a non power 5 made it in. I think Michigan Georgia will be a good game. Neither Georgia or Michigan have big offenses so it will be a defensive battle.

You guys will get to play Bama game 1. Ouchies. Bryce young is a generational QB with maybe the fastest release of any QB on earth literally. It’s probably a 50% shot of another SEC final. Michigan Georgia May be a game but if cincy keeps it within 14 that will be a win for them. Bama running that hurryup with the number 1 draft pick in 2023 at QB gives them so many chances. That auburn game where they refused to block was a wake up call. I’d Metchie has a serious injury it may be a bit closer but 2 1st round receivers and the number 1 overall lock in 2 years is going to be hard to stop. edit: unless Michigan loses then you will likely play Georgia game 1. Bama has the 1 seed. Michigan and Georgia will be the 2/3 in whatever order and cincy the 4. Cincy will prob take the 3 if Michigan loses which is doubtful vs the worst power 5 offense in Iowa

It’s funny that Riley ran away from the SEC and Kelly ran to it. Sorta crazy to bolt before a potential playoff appearance. Riley is like now that Oklahoma is in the SEC I’m looking at 3 loss seasons being the norm so let’s go to the last cupcake conference left, but Kelly thinks he can recruit the 5 star guys at LSU he couldn’t get at notre dame. Interesting divergent paths.

Well the last big game between them was that national championship OT game thriller so bet this will be a good one

I’ll guess 27 points. The bigger question is can Georgia score against Bama. Bama has 1st round offensive skill position guys and prob the 1st QB in the 2023 draft. Georgia doesn’t.

These recordings almost sound like a matrix. The quality is outstanding. I didn’t see any mics set up. Where was he recording?

you think concerts will ever be the same? I don’t think many will ever be over this. We’ve had 2 years of shit pounded into our collective heads and the country needs therapy. We will continue to do all the shows we can but many are still too scared and may never attend an indoor show again. My parents skipped the stones for covid fears and know my dad wouldn’t see an indoor show at this point and the stones was even outdoor. If Dso plays here again in 2-3 years, we’d definitely make the trip. It’s really nice having food hotel and venue all right next to each other. It’s an easy weekend setup and not many places are set up like this. The only thing that sucked were the bars mostly closed at midnight or 12:30 in the battery when most of those would have been 2am in 2019. And the bars were all huge pre baseball game type monstrosities. There were no dark quaint bars to have a drink post show right there.

thats 1 game. They have been a top 2 offense all year and have the best QB in football.

Alabama’s best offense is probably equal to Georgia’s best defense. The question is can Georgia score against Bama bevause Bama will put up points

If Bama beats Georgia, we will see that game again in the finals. If Bama wins its 1. Bama 2. Georgia 3. Cincy 4 Michigan if Georgia wins you can’t include Bama b/c they can’t play Georgia again as it makes the sec championship irrelevant. No one wants to see Bama at 4 and Georgia at 1 having to play each other again.

True that likely Bama won’t get in but they are only 6.5 point dogs. The game is on turf in a dome on a neutral field. Well it’s actually not very neutral as Bama dominates in the Georgia dome. Who would be the 4th team in if Bama loses? It’s either Bama or Ohio state. Unfortunately we won’t get to see Bama vs Ohio state. Wanted to see that one. Cincy should be rhe 4 no matter who’s in as they are by far the easiest team who can be in the playoffs and Georgia deserves getting them.

It’s hard to really feel that early 70’s hard jamming psychsdelia when at the house mostly because the quality of the boards won’t let you get all of the intricacies of the original. Hearing this on that amazing PA system in all its glory is hard to describe. I thought their compositions were all so original. The style was unique, the transitions were improv genius and they really stretched a lot of songs to their limit. 16 minute other one, 18 minute lovelight, 9 minute GDTRFB. They didn’t skimp on the jams. It was superb. Pig shined in this original. Got home a few hours ago and feel rejuvenated. There were these folding chairs zip tied taking up half the space in front of the board so we pushed several rows forward and several rows backwards and had this protected area that was around 25’x10’ for meili and I and a person here and there that wanted a lot of get down space. Slowly over 30 minutes I moved those rows of chairs as people would get up until we had this amazing area 20’ in front of the board where we could get wild and no one could interrupt. It was awesome. It was like some roped off vip area with just us using 200 sq feet of dance space. I wish the band would have sold more tickets but it was great for fans. Georgia @ Georgia tech was played that afternoon in Atlanta which definitely didn’t help. Met a group of 6 young guys who did the game then the show, but that definitely hurt attendance. I also think the area isn’t great for attendance. It’s sort of touristy with expensive parking on the outskirts of town near Marietta. It was great for a travel weekend as we had food and drink and venue all within a couple blocks. Hung around the Braves stadium Saturday afternoon after lunch. It’s definitely a solid spot for anyone who flew or drove in from out of town but could see how it may not be an ideal location for locals, but there are thousands of parking garage spots within 200 feet of the venue so it’s super easy to get in and out of considering they have parking to hold the 40k baseball fans who come to the games literally 20 feet away. Another great Dso weekend is in the books. We are very grateful to the band and to our friends who came. :))
