I realize alot of you have seen too many shows to be chasing anything. But, for ever mine was rubin & cherise. But still chasing some.

1. Viola lee blues

2. Mission in the rain

3. Standing on the moon

And Lisa

1. Strange man

2. Hurts me too

3. White rabbit

So what are some of your faves that you are still chasing or just some you are hoping to get this round.

The Eleven was the white whale for me which was finally landed at Jubilee last year.  Viola Lee still eludes as does Russian Lullaby.  Here are othe ones I always relish:

 

Visions

Gomorrah

Mission

Cats

Midnight Moonlight

Harder They Come

Simple Twist

Attics

Low Spark (come on Jeff and Rob > get your mates on board)

Tangled

Dear Prudence

 

Ask me tomorrow....there will be others

The Eleven was a big one for me too and was absolutely delighted to hear it at the last Jubilee. Stop That Train was a big one for me I never thought I'd get.

 

Here is what I can think of:

Caution

If I had the World To Give

Clementine

Desolation Row

Dark Hollow

Positively 4th St.

Knockin' on Heaven's Door

Let it Rock

Days Between

It takes a lot to laugh

Mountains of the Moon

 

There are a few more early Dead songs and JGB songs I haven't heard that I'd really like. Thankfully have really caught a lot of great stuff when I look back.

Gabe is always talking about what he really wants to see from DSO.  looking over the lists and thinking hard, I just can't come up with much.  He really wants a Cats down under the stars….. OH YEAH, 

 

ROB B SMOKESTACK LIGHTNING, THAT is what I WANT.

 

I missed it in CO that time cause I was still in CALI and hadn't made it home yet.  GRRRR! I need this one! Also, don't think I've seen the Katie Mae he does either……. I WANT!

 

Other than those, I am very grateful I have been at the right shows at the right time to see most of what has been listed here that they play.  Some great memories and I look forward to more.

 

When are we gonna get some pre-69s?!?! even if just one set and a huge filler show…..?

I saw the GD do their final performance of Rueben and Cherise at Buckeye Lake in '91

My jaw hit the grass once those first notes surfaced. The vitamins were taking over as that started. Wow. I was fetal for the LIG that followed - pulled it together at break :)

I've never seen DSO do G-L-O-R-I-A. I know I'd like it.

According to Edbase (through 6/2013), Lucy in the Sky has only been played 1x since JK left.  That show was 4/20/2010.  For the life of me, I'm not sure if it was Jeff or Stu Allen playing lead.  Someone out there will know: 

 

Show 1795 - Tue, Apr 20, 2010 Eureka Theater, Eureka, CA

Original Setlist

 

Set One

Samson and Delilah ; Dupree's Diamond Blues ; Hell In A Bucket ; Easy Wind ; High Time ; The Music Never Stopped > Deal
 

Set Two
Feel Like A Stranger ; Doin' That Rag ; Playing In The Band > Uncle John's Band > Drums > Space > Dark Star (verse two) > All Along The Watcher > China Doll > Good Lovin'

 

Encore

Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

 

Not sure why it has never resurfaced.  That could make some serious hay with that tune.

 

Also > At the risk of being extremely repetitive:  LOW SPARK OF HIGH-HEELED BOYS.  They'd own that shit.

World To Give

Tore Up

Black Muddy River

Strawberry Fields

Baby Blue

*Lather, Eskimo Blue Day, Wooden Ships

 

I can't catch a Black Muddy or Baby Blue to save my life and I have been seeing these guys  every time they come to town as well as a few other places since 12/3/99

 

*I would like them to see them put one more  Airplane tune in addition to  White Rabbit  on the Elective Rotation...I love the Airplane...
