neutrino Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 I was looking at the setlists, and using the individual locations filter. I noticed that there has apparently never been a DSO show in Hawaii. Is this logistically just too difficult and costly? Some shows on Oahu and Maui would be awesome!! Just wondering why this has never been done, since many other artist play there. Maybe DSO is not willing to use the existing equipment at the venues, and it's too expensive to ship their own gear? I'd book a trip from California for this! Always looking for an excuse to visit the islands. I know a number of Deadhead living there , and they'd love it.

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted February 24, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 I think they had some preliminary talks about Hawaii after Baracco played with I believe the David Nelson band. Those talks clearly didn’t go anywhere and I really don’t know why. Maybe a band member can shed some light here but I also know the nature of business and it is none of ours. What i I do want to do here. Is outside of one off gig. So they need to set up at least 3 to 4 show run. One venue several venues I don’t care. Multiple shows in Hawaii. My lady and I and possibly the kids are there. Who else would make this a must do trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted February 24, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Agreed. They do everything involved when they do jam in the sand. I ‘m guessing it has to be at least four shows to justify the expense of getting everyone and everything across a large body of water. The Grateful Dead never made it to Hawaii, did they?

The Grateful Dead never made it to Hawaii, did they? They sure did. 5 shows in Honolulu in 1970. JGB did Hawaii, too. GD never played Mexico. Alaska, Canada, Jamaica, Africa, and Europe have all had GD shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted February 24, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Yup, They played Hawaii. Just looked it up. It turns out I had the original concert poster for those shows. That’s the one with the surfing eyeballs. Surfing eyeballs are the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And worse case for Dso is they get 2 tickets to paradise even if it’s not a big money maker. I’ve also got my passport ready for when they leave Hawaii and head to Thailand. Pretty sure the dead is super popular in Bangkok with the “ladies”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Island Bro Posted February 26, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 They could slip a 3-4 show Hawaii run in between Jamaica and West coast tour in late January/early February.... Although I've heard that the band and crew actually have lives outside of producing the finest live music available and that breaks and rest from performing their craft serves them well...go figure...

Forum MVP Rude Posted March 2, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Now that Southwest is doing Hawaii flights I can’t think of a better time to do it. I’d suggest goin ahead and getting your chase southwest card now bevahse it takes a few months to get your 50k mile credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Rude Posted March 4, 2019 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 That’s 4600 capacity? Looks like it’s 1/4 size of the anthem and if theres an upstairs the beams seem like that would be a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
