Grateful Dead

Three shows, 65,000+ seats, tickets upward of $300+ for the good seats, $60+ for seats at the other end of the field in the nose bleed section, over booked hotels, scalpers galore, 100,000 ticketless dead heads and phish heads mixing it up on Shakedown. Jerry looking down and shaking his head saying, "What the f&@k were they thinking?" The only redeeming thing would be a box set of high quality soundboard CDs of all three nights along with DVDs of the complete concerts made available for purchase later in the year for those of us too poor and too far away to attend this hysterically historic event. Lots of luck guys, you're going to need it.

!!!!!!!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!

I was really hoping for a few different locations at more intimate venues (under 63,000!). This feels like a re-run of the final sad tour. Great line-up, I sort of hate to miss it. But given the location, venue, expense, likely heat, etc., I’m afraid I need to shine it on. After all the anticipation this is a let down. I’m sure it makes sense for the band, but not for me.And why Chicago? WHY IS THIS HAPPENING ANYWHERE BUT SAN FRANCISCO???
