Foggy morning coffee with 76/09/24

William and Mary.  Wormhole thoughts

regarding Help on the Way. To DBX.

Played 110x. 

75-77   27x.  Shelved for 401 shows.

83-85   27x.  Shelved for 284 shows.

89-95  56x.  Played every year.

 

Interesting there were more plays after

the 'breakout'.  All 27x plays between 

83-85 located in the second set.

 

Led to associated wormhole, how

often was H>S>F interrupted?

EVERY Help followed by Slipknot.

Slipknot NOT followed by Franklin's 

a total of 8 times.  Slipknot appeared

twice in 1974 as a stand alone (6/20, 7/25).

Slipknot>Music 75/09/28.  Lindley Meadows.

Franklin's Tower played several songs later.

Slipknot>Fire on 91/09/20 Boston Garden.

The only instance of separation after 76/12/31.

Franklin's Tower not played.

Left are four occurances of Slipknot>something

else, all in 1976 and all followed by Drums.

 

1.  76/09/24 William and Mary

Help>Slipknot>Drums>Slipknot>Franklin's.

 

2.  76/09/27  Rochester

Help>Slipknot>Drums>Other One>Wharf Rat>

Slipknot>Franklin's.

 

3.  76/10/09  Oakland Stadium

Help>Slipknot>Drums>Samson and Delilah>

Slipknot>Franklin's

 

4.  76/12/31  Cow Palace

Help>Slipknot>Drums>Not Fade Away.

No Franklin's Tower this evening.

 

The Rochester and Oakland shows read like

something JRAD, Holly Bowling, or perhaps

our band would do in elective form.

More evidence of the 'anything anywhere'

setlists of 1976.  End Wormholes.

 

Praise DSO.

Thanks Bill!   I love the 10/9 'Day On the Green' suite a bunch but this one really speaks to me.  DSO has gotta get on this one - STAT!

 

My DeadBase X was accidentally (?) discarded by my wife as old junk.  The cover was ripped off and replaced by a cover that lovingly read 'EdBase'  OK - I'll just go and buy another one - yeah right.  Back when this happened, it was online for $199 from a private seller.  Look now:

Thank heavens for the wonders of modern technology - along with half of a printer toner cartridge.  Deadbase restored!

Hey FREE delivery.  A while back I had thoughts

of acquiring a DB50 for the updates and all the 

Jerry Band, Ratdog material.  Costs were similiar,

I found I could live with DBX.

 

Praise DSO.

Very fortunate in this respect. My Deadbase III was gifted as a friend upgraded to IV and DB50 was a Christmas present from Anna back when they were original release prices in 2015. Both got a workout by BillK during the 6/24/85 recreation series in Cincinnati 🫠 with further investigations into the mysterious 1985 experiments.

my DB50 is on sale this week only for $389.99 with free delivery!!!!


this sounds weird. Help slip was only played 110 times ever?? Peggy-O was played more?? That seems weird. I hear HSF so much it seems 

 


so checked star base. Dso played help on the way 16x in 2024. 12 were electives. So DSO loves it wayyyy more than the dead.

it’s definitely great. But the way deadbase is set up and I have mine with Tabs so I can go right to every time played plus 10 other important tabs. If you don’t make tabs, deadbase can be a bitch. Now I bet at least 1 is gonna take my advice. Get some thick index cards and cut some tabs. I used sticky flags at 1st. They last a bit but eventually flattened out and hard to read.

With all the respect in the world for Deadbase, which has been the beloved and go to reference for decades, gratefulsets is the bomb; state of the art research portal for all things Dead lists.
