DaysBetween Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 There aren't that many. Candyman and slow FOTDs come to mind. And Must Have Been The Roses. I am BIG FAN of the Jerry ballads, which makes my least fav dead tunes all the Stranger (pun intended). I guess those three I mentioned are just the lowest rungs on the ladder, so to speak.

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted October 3, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Tennessee Jed can be tough to get into for me. This may be the only song other than drums space that I skip with any regularity when listening to shows. Some of the obvious ones apply for me... day job, push comes to shove, wave to the wind. Im not huge on might as well. Chucks piece on eyes was hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP bs69 Posted October 4, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 I think a lot depends on if you are at a show or just listening at home or in the car. There are a lot of songs that aren't my favorites that can be really fun at a show (cowboy songs come to mind) and others like roses, BTW, slower FOTD etc. That can slow a show down but I love listening to traveling in the car. The one song I've never been able to get into is definitely NFA. Nothing screams head to the exit and listen for the encore from a distance more than that one to me.

Forum MVP BillK522 Posted October 13, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 "Rediscovering" music and energy I thought was gone through DSO has made me much more appreciative of any and all song selections played at a show. That said, Jerry first set songs that were played frequently (TJ, BEW, RonR) would be less positively received because I always hoped for one of lesser played first set Jerry songs (DDB, DW, ALT, SL) Praise DSO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratefulDevil Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Great thread!! Ship of Fools - ugh! I always think "why couldn't it be Stella or Black Peter or Wharf Rat instead?" Jack-A-Roe - "why couldn't this be Peggy-O instead?" Comes A Time and To Lay Me Down - just never a fan Easu - "at least its not Picasso Moon" Rooster - "at least it's not Wang Dang" Wang Dang - "at least it's not Rooster" Touch - "at least its not Alabama Getaway or Don't Ease." And how much fun is it to have a drunk touchhead dancing wildly into your back screaming all show right into your face All Over Now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.STVN Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 my least favorite would probably be Pride of Cucamonga. I can't stand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
