Uncle_Sam Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'm sure this thread has been done before, but I don't see one specifically for this purpose... I'm taking a trip back in time and listening to GD shows in chronological order by year...and I'm wondering what are yall's favorites?? I'd love to hear from the community on this one... Thanks!!

Forum MVP Mango Posted February 28, 2015 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 depends on the day....but I love me a good 1973 show. A second set with lots of ">"s I started off liking the early stuff the most....pigpen, pschedelia... Definitely always down with 76-78 but in recent years have come to appreciate the later years quite a bit (79 with Brent >...) It's all different....It's all Grateful Dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP John A Posted March 2, 2015 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Not that (of course) I wouldn't trust you, Tea, but I spot checked two of your links - '85 and '88. The shows you chose from both those years would very possibly have been my picks as well. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Tea Posted March 3, 2015 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Maybe I got a touch of the 'tism' for this music - I'll cop to that I guess. "Come-on Tea. It wasn't 2/5/78 at the Unidome - sorry. I know you thought you were right but DSO is actually playing 5/5/78 at Thompson Arena at Dartmouth College. It was an honest mistake - it's ok buddy."

Forum MVP HelpSlip Posted March 3, 2015 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 good pick for 85 but i'll add this one, always been one of my faves https://archive.org/details/gd1985-06-27.sbd.gmb.79382.flac16 81 i'll add this crispy DickLatvala SBD, amazing ChinaRider https://archive.org/details/gd81-02-26.sbd.lutch.4597.sbeok.shnf 84 one of the best of the year, incredible J.Straw to close first set https://archive.org/details/gd1984-10-20.sbd.miller.105445.flac16 82 has some of the most creative setlists in Gd history, can never forget about Phil's Earthquake Space https://archive.org/details/gd82-04-18.sbd.miller.18116.sbeok.shnf and the next night's The Raven Space https://archive.org/details/gd1982-04-19.sbd.clugston.28291.sbeok.shnf 1989 is an extremely strong year, i dont care what anyone says, the 3night AlpineValley run in July and both nights as "Formerly the Warlocks" Hampton run in October are proof, many gems to be found, like July4th, Miami and the 3night GreatWesternForum tour-closing run in Inglewood in december Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of dancing room in a wide open field. Nashville is as empty as I've seen DSO. 5 ft from stage with as much room as u could ask for. In 2012 I was 1 of about 15 people inside when DSO started. Was actually pretty weird dancing by myself. Filled up with around 200 people. Needless to say they only schefule Nashvegas every couple years and doubt it will be in the rotation now that they have cut touring down a tad.
