    Almost Acoustic

    Credited to the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band. Originally released in 1988. Nice album.

    Finally, 10/2/76

    Can they keep the drive alive?
    Been a Hellava stretch, they may have peaked slightly already?
    As always, it’ll be fun/interesting to find out…
    Onward!

    Edit: (same review as DaP 53 page)

    Finally worked into the rotation.
    As a representative example of the tour/year, this is a fine show.
    I can totally appreciate why Dave went with this one.
    You have to think there is some professional considerations involved in his processes that we civilian nuts might not consider?
    The audio is nice, the playing solid, nearly flawless, good selection of tunes to compliment other releases etc. So why am I not shouting “RJ”?
    I can see how some might find it a tad subdued, especially the JG tunes, depending on how your pleasure tends, but I think that’s kinda on purpose, and perhaps not as exciting, certainly not a fault?
    But I’m struggling for the right word to describe how it made me feel? I thorough enjoyed it, but perhaps it didn’t hit me as much as, imho, the peak sweet spot of this tour, the four from 9/24 through 9/28. Fortunately, we’ve been blessed with 3 outta the four (so far 🤞)…
    The next four are also quite good, but perhaps that’s it, too “good”, like some of 77 for me personally, their too shiny clean and sparkly good?
    Jimmy’s “super model” analogy?
    They’ve been on the road just long enough to get jiggy with it via those spicy unusual jams and sequences, work out the kinks, and by Ohio evolved into a smooth, velvety goodness? So all good, but personally, I think those four or five, “worts and all” were more up my alley? Ya know, more dirty but daring? Obviously subjective conjecture certainly influenced by bias…
    Fortunately, David himself discusses some of this in his notes, which to me intimates promise for more of this tours awesome, underrated goodness!

    Actually listening to 10/3 as we speak and this one’s even better than I recall, though admittedly I haven’t given it a good shake yet?
    8/2 was perhaps a practice gig, and 9/4 takes a little time to get up to speed, but then, oh boy! I felt 9/23 was good, but comparatively the “warm up gig” for the tour. But from there onward, mighty fine indeed!
    Next up will be those awesome Oakland shows, then the 2 shrines for the first time. It will be interesting to compare them all upon completion!
    Onward!

    Wow, this stretch just seems to keep getting better…
    Gonna try and sneak 10/1 in today so hopefully I can get DaP 53 proper treatment mañana!
    Onward!

    Hope that’s just a cold PF…not “quademic”…chicken soup and zinc time!

    Did Disneyworld? (Fla) at night on veggies once, big fun!

    Just got back from a trip to Disneyland

    Besides good times and good memories, I also brought back a cold. I escaped it for weeks, and it caught me.

    Shheeyit.

    Disneyland was a very welcome bubble from current events.

    When I get back to normal I will be doing more El Monte stuff.

    The best way to experience Disneyland is by having a specialty snack.

    When the going gets weird…

    4/21 is a beauty, but as good as it is, I preferred the 2 or 3 proceeding, and perhaps the next night as good or better, Duke they seemed burnt, which is understandable…But hey, that’s just me lol, but what a stretch there!

    9/25/76 to start today…
    Just don’t tell ‘em ya know me!

    If I get any weirder,..well, they have places for us…

    I'm just gonna be more weird and unique as possible......

    Mornin', rockers!

    Right now? Providence April 21 1971. Because CRUNCHY. Plus it rocks a tiny bit. And there's some good Pigpen. And it's going to be in the first April 1971 box set. Did I mention it's a rocker????

    The more you embrace the weird crazy things about you, the more you find your tribe......

    Rock on!

    Doc
    Embrace your differences and the qualities about you that you think are weird, eventually, they're going to be the only things separating you from everyone else.....

    They seem to have stopped releasing shows from the European tour on vinyl. At least for the time being. If they release further ones, as I hope they do, this one would be great candidate to get the ball rolling.
