About 15 mins before showtime I heard whispers that Bob is here. Where is he, etc. Then I got some water after Music and there was talking and a loud cheer. I came back and Bob was on stage. Lisa was on for most of Bob’s songs though Eaton was not. The tempo was obv different but I’d say it skewed towards DSO than DeadnCo. No SSDD btw. yeah Mission was a great capper to the California run.

I know but my mind wouldn’t have held up.

It was a stand-alone “set” after about a 15 minute break from the acoustic set. Then it was a full setbreak before St. Stephen. It was odd. I re-labeled as their printed setlist had it. They also skipped Viola Lee after Shakedown. That woulda been too much.. 🙃

The Woolly Mammoth. a lot of tusk jokes

Ahh funny thing is Lonesome and a long way was on the printed setlist. Think they needed a shorter song before curfew. I forgot what song they were playing during the massive Tangled jam. It was a fine classic venue with beautiful murals on the ceiling and a new sound system. The pit fit 100 dancers and people got down. On the way to Monterey…

I’m in SLO for a 4 nite run to the Warfield. I’m willin’ to give it a shot. But I’m easily distracted by weed, weirdos and wine so don’t get yer hopes up.

That list could also measure how old you are. Kids don’t do those things anymore. I got 28 and I grew up near Chicago. One I would add is have you ever captured an animal with your bare hands? (garter snake)

Unless you’re an epidemiologist, let’s just move on. Anyway, these shows look like a real real good time.

So nice to listen to again. Had no recollection of Estimated. Was lost somewhere between the sun and the mountains.

It was as bouncy a Box of Rain that I’ve heard. Sunday: 5/9/77 Ripple filler The dancing, the setting, the people, the music, the weather, the trees, the grass ... was all as magical as you can get. Felt like what it would be like back in the day at Golden Gate Park.

Yep, 5/7/72

And with Alligator in the midst, could be a ‘71-‘72 set.

According to the ticketing site: This is a LIVE concert performance "An Evening With Dark Star Orchestra" on stage and in person at the Soldier Field South Parking Lot with real amplified sound...
