Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 8, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 I’m tempted to pull the trigger on the Q. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Rude Posted September 9, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 New York is never in my plans. It sort of intimidates me with the thought of driving plus everything costs so much. It would be nice to see Vic up in Por Chess’ tuh. Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 10, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 We are doubtful. Between it being a difficult ticket and the travel expenses. Plus having two kids. It’s just not in the cards. I even think we gonna have to sit Cincinnati out. I’m hopeful we get more DSO before Jamaica but if that’s the case Jamaica will be all that much sweeter. We get that Halloween run here in Colorado too. Not DSO but certainly quality Dead music. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted September 10, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 I’m kinda concerned about the lack of shows on the horizon. When you think about the work it takes to get a venue booked, lead up time for ticket sales, etc., I get more concerned. It’s not like this Covid shit is easing up and indoor venues are ok. There’s still time and we all have plenty of hope but yikes! I need a show, Especially after reading that set list from the last show. Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 10, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Covid is on the rise again. I don’t think we going to get more shows again until the Spring but I don’t know anything. Maybe we get something. Just don’t think we will. 2 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Ammagamalin Crew Posted September 10, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 If this is the end for the year, I think the band did the country right by playing Asheville for all the deadicated folks on the east coast, then Utah for the western folks and finishing off with a reasonably priced Cincinnati gig for midwesterners. 1 Quote Link to comment
Brian NJ Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 I don't see anyone booked at the Anthem Dec 4th! Probably the best indoor venue I've seen DSO. Plenty of room for social distancing. Who knows? 3 Quote Link to comment
Fireonshakedwnstreet Posted September 11, 2021 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 I am for two of the Q shows. Am also concerned about the lack of scheduled shows. The Cap is open for New Year's Run! I need DSO very badly! Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted September 11, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 We’ve been here before, not too long ago. A little different that time, scheduled shows were postponed then canceled. DSO found a way and they came back, playing to cars in parking lots. It worked, felt good. That evolved into outdoor shows. That’s fine, it’s summertime. Now Covid is evolving (because its still hanging around) , there’s great concern if we are honest with ourselves. It is simultaneously to be feared and respected. It is wise on the band’s part to not have anything scheduled for the fall (yet!) some more outdoors shows would be nice but I understand how they’re not scheduling indoor events yet. We just don’t know. They need and love us as much as we need and love them. They’ll find a way. They haven’t let us down yet. ….seems a common way to go…. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Rude Posted September 14, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Here’s the thing. DSO could schedule a 13 show tour over 16 days indoors but the economics likely aren’t there. How many will come to an indoor Indy show on a Tuesday right now? I just don’t think anything other than destination outdoor weekends makes fiscal sense right now and once it gets cold we are screwed. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 14, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 DSO can't schedule a 13 date indoor tour right now. They wouldn't if they could in my estimation but the promoters and venues won't sign off on it. A DSO tour when and where it happens is up to more than those that deliver us the goods. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Greg from Chestertown Posted September 15, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 There’s gotta be something bigger going on here. Last Halloween they did three nights at Fredrick fairgrounds, Maryland. It went so well they came back in the spring. Why can’t that be something we’re looking forward to right now? They’re not even scheduling outdoor shows. Makes you wonder if those drive in shows were financially worth their while for the band. Sure hope I’m wrong and dates get announced. Orchestra withdrawal is the worst. Quote Link to comment

I checked out tickets and it’s like 180 cheapest. I’m debating it but that seems steep man. Lataaaa rudeeee Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP found Posted October 11, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Got my ticket for Wednesday. Curious if anyone is going... Finally got around to seeing JRAD this past weekend, which was fun. It scratched the itch and had moments but it all but confirmed my preferred dead experience. Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Tea Posted October 12, 2021 Author Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Not a bad way to kick off the Cap Theatre run (10/11/21): Set 1: Mason's Children Doin' That Rag The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys > So What > The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys She Said, She Said Night of 1000 Stars Set 2: Shakedown Street > Viola Lee Blues > New Speedway Broken Arrow Cryptical Envelopment > Wharf Rat > The Other One > I Know You Rider Encore: The Real Thing 1 Quote Link to comment

Forum MVP found Posted October 14, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 Went last night. Little slow out the gate but the show from help on the way to the end was absolutely smokin. Very cool to see them reprise so what, low spark and wharf rat during dark star. musically, it doesn’t hit those searing highs of blissful euphoria for me but they have great chemistry and communication. Very playful and impressive playing. Molo and Herring are the real deal. Barraco was outstanding handling a lot of the vocals as well. 2 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP PoetryGirl Posted October 14, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 I saw a clip of St-> 11. It was tight and a musical smorgasbord. Evident was there are consummate musicians playing our favorite music. Wishing I was close by and in attendance. 1 Quote Link to comment
Forum MVP Island Bro Posted October 15, 2021 Forum MVP Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 I’ve been streaming these shows and thoroughly enjoying…The Q was a great run back in their heyday and they sound excellent at these shows… Really fun to get to hear Barraco singing so much…stuff like China Cat, Franklins, The Wheel,,etc… Tight band with all top notch musicians! Helps me remember how much I enjoyed catching this band 20 years ago. Also fun to notice Skip grooving up near the rail in the crowd on night 3 😉 1 Quote Link to comment
