Forum MVP Tea Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 My guess is that was Jeff's first I Fought the Law . Maybe? It's also been a minute since Attics...I saw my first Attics on 10/16/89 and chased it around till the end. "I have spent my life, seeking all that's still unsung." Quote Link to comment
t.bell Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Wow, not sure if/when I last saw desolation row on a DSO set list. Hope it went well. Would love to see it pop up from time to time. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Dead duck Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Wow a ‘93 smoker. Rare indeed Quote Link to comment
deadheadmike07 Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Happy Friday, TBell--- not 100% sure but I think I saw them do Desolation Row in Evansville, IN a year or 2 ago-- I remember it being something "special" at the time because Rob Eaton made a statement about its been a long time since they played this song. I think Rude back in the day was "chasing" this song too and he posted something on this But this is all off memory so don't quote me on this...LOL Enjoy Friday Quote Link to comment
Fireonshakedwnstreet Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Very cool! Pre-Drums looks amazing Quote Link to comment

Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 My memory escapes me from time to time, but I’m pretty sure that’s a killer set list for ‘93. No duds. Not much excitement for me post Brent/ beginning of the end for Jerry. That’s what’s so cool about what DSO does. They can infuse their energy into a Grateful Dead era that had marginal band energy, breath more life into than it ever had before. I’m sure they nailed it. 4 Quote Link to comment
tombellanca Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 There are no Desolation's on DSO nugs.net, and two on archive.org. 5/8/12 Higher Ground (gd 6-12-91) and 5/17/07 State Theater. Interestingly 5/17/07 is a recreation of the same 12/17/93 show https://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3ADarkStarOrchestra AND "desolation row" I am pretty sure I have not seen them play it in my 20+ years seeing them.

I began to drift off after Brent, but DSO can do those 90's shows some deserved justice! 🙂 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Yep, DSO polishes those ‘90s gems til they shine. I caught the 5/17/07 DR. That was part of the run up to the beloved 5/19/07 extravaganza. Many happy memories! 1 Quote Link to comment

What a gem of a show on paper; I know it was a paper airplane to you all who saw it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Forum MVP BillK522 Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Ah the days of multiple nights at little State Theater, followed by multiple nights at Rams Head. Yes, 2007 was a good DSO year. Praise DSO. 1 Quote Link to comment

I was there! They wouldn’t let us out of the venue at set break- but awesome show, and awesome jam out of Terrapin Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 I was at that original show. My buddy and I were to the left, looking at the stage, second level. We figured the first set was done so we left our seats, headed to the bathrooms. When we got to the railing on the second level, close to stage, Bobby broke into Desolation Row. I, honestly, never heard the song before. Bobby was at his absolute best that I have ever seen him during that song. I’m not even going to try to explain. Just leave it at that. As soon as he finished the tune, he walked away from the mike, apparently to catch his breath. Fuckin’ Jerry hits the opening guitar riff to ‘ don’t ease me in’ and Bobby has to run back to the mike to participate in the singing. Jerry was laughing his ass off. Yea, Bobby rocks. 3 Quote Link to comment

Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted February 14, 2020 Forum MVP Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 The State - a sauna in the summer, a sauna in the winter; I too loved that place. The State was the site of Scott's last show, and it is really hard to believe that was nearly 15 years ago now. 5 Quote Link to comment
