Great pic! is it possible to please identify who we’re looking at?

Damn, that just gets down to business and does not let up. Not a throwaway through it all.

Natural born easy

Ah, the one song in between part is critical here. Obviously not applicable to the Alpine show I mentioned, or the Rich Stadium show that I’m thinking of. going to get Deadbase now...

I’m surprised that this only occurred 5 times for the GD, as it seems much more common since Bobby became the sole architect of setlist design. I have not yet consulted Deadbase to confirm the other two... I know one of the other two for sure, as I was there: 7-18-89, Alpine. If I had to guess the other I would say Rich Stadium in the late 80’s or early 90’s, but I’m not positive. Thanks for the cool fact, John. Please share the answers when you see fit?

Hang on. Are you saying that you do not expect any more DSO California shows in 2019? Or are you saying that, if there are some (and that is highly likely), you won’t likely be in attendance?

Looking good. Can’t wait to see the West Coast dates!

Boots were of leather A breath of cologne Her mirror was a window She sat quite alone All around her The garden grew Scarlet and purple And crimson and blue She came and she went And at last went away The garden was sealed When the flowers decayed On the wall of the garden A legend did say: No one may come here Since no one may stay

WOW

Haha, that’s an awesome post, Greg. i can’t help but thinking if the grass is the victim or the crime here?

Hope you’re serious, RD. And the reason that you make many life-changing decisions on or right after tour is because you are always either on or right after tour. 😁

I hate cell phones at a show (I don’t get how a person could be more interested in recording what they’re watching vs. just enjoying it and imprinting it on their soul), and don’t want to be around cigarettes anywhere, but the notion that everyone at a Grateful Dead show (or any concert) is going to follow the rules established by others is not realistic. It’s also contradictory to the spirit of the Grateful Dead scene. The irony of a hippie telling someone else what they can and cannot do is a tell. And the implication that increased popularity and show attendance is a bad thing is not fair to the band. Money is a thing, and they are entitled to more of it if the market allows. What if DSO could fill Alpine Valley? Good or bad thing? I think it would be fantastic, but it sure as hell would not be as easy as rolling into some bar to see them. Fascinating topic. Change is hard at times. Hang in there.

Thanks, Greg. Likewise, I didn’t want to try to be funny as I wasn’t sure if you were playin’. Everyone here, including me knows that you are a great dude. I appreciate you coming back and clarifying.

Not sure if serious? But, yes.

I saw a guy named John Kadlecik play last night in Los Angeles. Talented cat. 😎

Wow. I have never seen this setlist before right now.

Ken Nordine and Edie Brickell are on line 2 for you.

I don’t care what the reason may be, any show where you get TWO Help on the Way’s is aiight by me.

Cubensis in Hermosa Beach. Recreated Without A Net. I would recommend them and will see them again.

I can’t remember what life was like before Al Gore invented the Internet.

The GD did SSDD to close the second set the next night. https://archive.org/details/gd91-04-28.sbd.vernon.6112.sbeok.shnf You’ll also like the encore, Greg. 😀

For those not familiar with the original show, you should check it out. Warning: prepare to be rocked and rolled. This is an extraordinarily rowdy display.
