Forum MVP BillK522 Posted October 27, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 From my vantage point- eighth row Jerry's side The 10/26/89 Dark Star was the best Star I ever saw, the boys made a point to end the tour with an epic version. The timing (26:46) was the longest post break out stand alone Star, a mindblower for sure. I tangled with a semi on the way down 95 in Jacksonville and the Bus limped into Miami. This Star made everything right with the world again. Praise DSO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP BillK522 Posted November 2, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 TIGD&DSOH Show 738 State Theater, Falls Church, VA 11/1/02 recreating 11/1/85 Richmond, VA The boys slayed this show in the original and DSO did the performance more than justice in the retelling. Second set list off the hook, I remember the place an absolute asylum during the Gloria. One of many fantastic shows at State Theater before relegation to 9:30 Club Praise DSO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP BillK522 Posted November 8, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 Thumbing through DeadBase 11/8 a thin date, did come across this: 11/08/85 Community War Memorial, Rochester, NY Iko, Rooster>Peggy-o, Esau,BE Women, Baby What You Want>Jackstraw>Might As Well. Revolution, Estimated>Eyes>Drumz>Other One>Miracle>She Belongs To Me>Sugar Mags. E: Satisfaction To be chasing songs low on the frequency charts, this performance checks a lot of boxes. Satisfaction (31) total plays, Revolution (11), She Belongs (10), Baby What You Want (5). Brent did the Jimmy Reed cover 4 times and the fifth play was with Jorma on vocals 09/07/69 in Family Dog at the Great Highway. 1985 did produce some interesting setlists.

Forum MVP Tea Posted December 13, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 the 2nd nite of the legendary 1990 McNichols run was no slouch despite the bomb from the nite before: http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/13-3/tuning Good Jack Straw to kick it off and a beautiful Ramble On (check out the soaring MIDI). Great H>S>F a turbo Eyes, Other One > Dew with a rare Box closer. Of all these gems - check out the Saint of Circumstance. We still miss The Sailor but this thing absolutely cooks.

Forum MVP BillK522 Posted December 14, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Always felt Jerry playing with the 'MIDI toy' represented a more engaged Jerry, exploring different tones in songs he could play in his sleep.

Forum MVP Tea Posted December 14, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/14/tuning (Use the Charlie Miller SBD) 12/14/90 - Everyone thought this was the weakest of the 3 nite run. Setlist suggested it and there are a couple valleys but this was still solid gold. Everything is speeded up - and I don't mean the source TLMD - compare this to MSG 1990 http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/14-1/to-lay-me-down Let It Grow - fast fingers and bombs http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/14-1/let-it-grow Foolish Heart - Sick Midi http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/14-1/foolish-heart He’s Gone - It's almost too fast - lol!

It just all came together after a pretty tough stretch. My brother + I still wish each other happy 12/12, 12/13 + 12/14 every year. 27 and counting... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Tea Posted December 14, 2017 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I want someone to have a listen to the TLMD here and the lauded MSG version and see how it stacks up http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/9/18-9/to-lay-me-down The solo inside of Knockin (yes, knockin) is pretty damn awesome. http://relisten.net/grateful-dead/1990/12/14/knockin-on-heavens-door Somebody give this shit a listen and see if I'm going gaga or it's just another show. 12/14 was even panned by some - no bleeping way.

It's a perfectly fine listen, but Tom Darian's B&K recording is the stuff of legend. A rare tape where I think mixing in the soundboard can only hurt it. In fact, Tom's recordings of the entire run are jaw dropping. The union security guy tending to that FOB section at The Garden was a Head, and he was getting greased with cassette dubes of each night the subsequent evening. In return, not only did Tom have carte blance to put his stand nice and high on the aisle seat (the center line was the aisle), but the usher was actually making folks near the mics pipe down. Amazing, and to my knowledge unprecedented. So the bottom line is these B&K audience tapes (or somewhat interchangeably Rick Katzeff's Schoeps tapes which were made at the same seat) should be the go to for this run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
