Grateful Dead

i'm so stoked about today's selection. another huge slab of Dead!! a nearly 16 minute EOTW. that eyes outro is very cool. weird sounds from all the players as it flows towards drumz...

happy hunting, heads!

someone mentioned the hint a few years ago (not mine) about "asian girl band" which was the 5678's from the Wayne's World movie. that was a good one lol

Several comenters on different sites bare eyewitness accounts about a Robert Hunter and Bonnie Rait afternoon show preceeding the GOGD in said city, and that the venue was ridiculously hot, as in sauna hot, and that during Iko Iko (which I have seen spelled Aiko Aiko on bumper stickers sold int he lot, and how I named one of my dogs), Jerry, Bobby and Donna were doing a hula hula dance. The drums pre-Iko came in at over 16 minutes, and 'twas Billy's 32nd B-Day. Before the encore, Phil says, "Actually, we seem to have lost our drummers. Let's give a hand for our drummers, shall we?"

1. Iko was only played from 77 on
2. Donna on backup vocals so you know it’s 77-early 79
3. Only 2 instances of this exact combo in said time period.
4. This is a SBD recording. Other only has AUD’s

Side note: The encore for this show was appropriate given the date.

So happy for the calendar!! keeps me grinnin' from ear to ear. Mid-western Night Owl here: I usually search at the end of the night, so when 3 a.m. rolls around i look at the answer/winner before sleep and yesterday, twas I ! HOOT Hoot! Using my trusty Re-listen, (Deadbase is back on the western edge of the u.s.) i refuse to look at the comments till after i submit my answer. Too much, TMI there, especially this year. Today, i also experienced Re-listen as off-kilter, that's where ETREE came in for the rescue for Iko/OO/BP. That is one Revved up Iko! Thanks & Peace to Dave & Krewe! Always a Hoot!
