"We were in the Pacific Northwest...between somewhere in Washington and some other where in Oregon. The road took us to the lip on a ridge, from where we could see around us for many miles in all directions … It was breathtaking to behold, but as we watched, we had a firm realization that we were witnessing something even more beautiful than our eyes could ever take in … Life causes life. Heaven and Earth dance in this way endlessly, and their child is the forest. And so there we were, epiphanously watching that grandest and most glorious dance of life—of which we are just a tiny part—awed by a magnificence without beginning, without end..."

Bob Weir, “Sell Headwaters—Everyone Wins,” San Francisco Chronicle

The Pacific Northwest offers up a rich feast of land, sky, and water. It is ripe with influences, abundant with symbols, deep and spirited. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that the Grateful Dead played some of their most inspired shows on these fertile grounds. It does, however, sometimes take a breath for the elements to re-align years later. It seems for us, they finally have and we are able to present not just a glimpse of the band's extraordinary exploratory tour through the region, but a two-tour bounty as the PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS.

For PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS, we've paired two short runs made up of six previously unreleased shows - P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, B.C. (6/22/73); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (6/24/73); Seattle Center Arena, Seattle, WA (6/26/73); P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, Canada (5/17/74); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (5/19/74); and Hec Edmundson Pavilion, University of Washington, Seattle, WA (5/21/74). Each show has been mastered in HDCD from the original master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. The transfers from the masters were transferred and restored by Plangent Processes, further ensuring that this is the best, most authentic that these shows have ever sounded.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS comes in an ornate box created by Canada’s preeminent First Nations artist Roy Henry Vickers (more on this tremendous artist soon). To complement the music, the set also includes a 64-page book with an in-depth essay by Grateful Dead scholar Nicholas G. Meriwether and photos by Richie Pechner.

Due September 7th, this release is limited to 15,000 individually numbered copies and available exclusively from dead.net. You'll want to grab a copy while you can and sit back, relax, and enjoy all the exclusive content we'll be rolling out over the next few weeks.

Looking for something a little more byte-sized? The collection will also be available for HD digital download in FLAC and ALAC, exclusively at dead.net, on release day. You can pre-order it now too.

Get it while you can.

Wheel of Fortune slot

I won $500, my friend won $1000. Same day, different casinos.But seriously folks, the sure way to beat the casino is at the Prime Rib and Crab Buffet. You can easily eat 3-5x the cost of admission (compared to buying it in a restaurant).

....I remember that show! Going to YouTube it now. 21 year old twins? In Vegas? You've got your work cut out for you my friend. The sun rises at noon. Been there. Too many times to count. VegasBorn. https://youtu.be/dij4b7UdwIE 106 degrees? It's 96 in the shade. Better than shoveling snow for hours or slipping on black ice. But that's me....plus, titties. The universal truth.

Spearmint Rhino. The steakhouse in the Fremont casino. The free nudie-cards the freaks hand out on the strip. Collect enough, make a deck. Winning $1,000 on a Wheel-Of-Fortune slot at the Excalibur, and another $500 at the Golden Nugget. The wave pool at Mandalay Bay, and the sand in your toes. Driving through Hoover Dam re-construction, coked out of our very minds and holding an ounce; having the elderly cop on duty at the checkpoint shine his flashlight in our faces and saying, "have a GREAT time, gentlemen!" as I got the hell out of there knowing an angel was on my shoulder. This was like 4am in a rented white Malibu from Denver. Rick said as long as we had a white car (and were driving across Utah, a virtual rolling felony), they'd never nab us. He was right. Taking the chopper ride at night bombing down over the strip and knowing I never wanted to be in a helicopter ever since Stevie Ray and Bill Graham crashed and burned, but doing it anyway. Getting dumped off from a limo at the Bellagio on New Year's Eve, and going in with my boy Bruce dressed up like Hunter S. Thompson, white Chuck Taylors, hawaiian shirt, cigarette holder. All that shit. Flask in hand, hash smoke bellowing out like Cheech and Chong. Go Raiders. \m/

from LV, not to LV

I would have looked up the good Mr. VGuy, but it was a core nuclear family thing (celebrating twins' 21st birthdays). Valley of Fire and Red Rock Canyon are magnificent, people. if and when you go to LV again, drive your car or rent one, and go to these two places, and then drive through the Nevada desert. c'est magnifique. Did you know it gets hot in LV? 106 degrees, it was. seeing the GD on 6/25/94 was 116 degrees. the show sucked donkeys. the next night was one of the top three of 94, but I had to return to Seattle, and didn't attend. (aww...)

Right On Led/Ded!

Great post, agree with 98% HST; was one of the greatest American writers of the late 20th century! (IMHO that’s being extremely conservative) Can’t believe I lived so close and never got to meet him....bummer.

HST, etc.

Hunter S. Thompson was an American treasure, like Hemingway. Yes they were rough around the edges and extremely politically incorrect. As if that's a problem. I just finished the Joel Selvin book. I believe I was the first to speak of it here. I wasn't in any great hurry to rush through it and it was boring. I've devoured most of the rock biographies out there and this one had precious little dirt. Selvin took the high road. He did seemingly have an axe to grind against the Leshes, but whatever. After what Phil has been through, I try to overlook some of the micromanaging. The best part of the book would be the play-by-play of Fare Thee Well. Having attended the shows, I more or less agreed. My axe to grind is Trey. He brought too little too late, energy, phrasing, pacing - all of it. The lead guitar chair was offered to him and he was mostly a shrinking violet. I've seen him wail like a man possessed with Phish - only a few times, they're not one of my bands but I had to experience it to form an educated opinion. I think he was just a little intimidated, under-rehearsed and not wanting to step on toes. Who would want to receive the obligatory tongue-lashing from Jill Lesh? No one, it would seem. Which will lead to my brief John Mayer sell. This guy doesn't have any issues with going out and playing Jerry Garcia in the band. He sings and plays and wails his ass off every night, uninhibited, confident, inspired. John Mayer has righted his career and cemented his legacy as no longer a goofball joke pop star, but a real musician, generous, talented, and keeping this ship afloat. Can't wait for the Boulder end-of-tour shows. Oh, and Water World was a blast. \m/

Don't miss out on the hotel pools....

....the scenery can't be beat. And buffets. Some are outstanding, some not so much. Do some research. If you're gonna gamble. Some great craps odds if you know where to look.

I'm on the fence....

....if I even want to read that book.

Re: KevJones/'76

Well said. I get '76 GD. When I am in the mood.. there is nothing more soothing. That being said, I get in the mood for just about every era if you give it enough time. When I am in the mood and find just the right show, it's like food for the soul and keeps me going. 1976. Yes please. Mattress Firm Amphitheater. They better have some really comfortable seats..

not inclined at all

to read Fare Thee Well. Do want to read Barlow's Mother American Night.

RE: using "their" traditional story-telling iconography

The artist, Roy Henry Vickers, is a Canadian First Nations artist.

Fare Thee Well

Will not read it.Fare thee well the book will be relegated to the close out book store sale tables of the near future, whereas the work of John Barlow will last as long as humans still listen to music.

JImInMD RE:76

Yes, I wait all year to listen to 1976 Dead. Particularly June and July each year. So much fun. Has a little of that pre-retirement vibe, but also moving towards the tightness of 1977. The most wholly unique year in the band's history in my opinion.

76 :)))

I love it

1976 tangent

Is there anything better than a '76 Scarlet or Lazy Lightning/Supplication? I wait all year to listen to the June '76 shows. They are so special. Again, the most unique year in the band's history. Where else will you find Help>Slip>Frank, St. Stephen, Cosmic Charlie and Crazy Fingers all sharing the same setlist? Disco Dancins? Not to mention High Time, stand alone Playin's and Eyes with the '74 jam (Stronger Than Dirt) at the beginning of the song. So magical Oh, and don't forget those muscular NFAs

Just ordered Barlow's bio....

....no fence on that tome. Regarding '76 Dead. It hits all the right spots when I want those spots hit, which may not occur every day, but those days do arrive.

Spinal Tap

Rock and roll wives can be trouble. The Beatles. Spinal Tap.

Someone earlier was asking....

....what the PNW 73/74 Box dimensions are. Let's hope they don't pull a Stonehenge ala Spinal Tap.

fare thee well, or good bye Phil and Jill

Yes, it's sketchy, why Steve left, who wants to just play in a band when the leaders wife runs the show (a non musician running a band never works out). I remember rumors of her telling them all there would be NO drugs on tour, not even joints. When Steve got caught catching a fire, she flipped out on him, told him that Phil could not take the temptation and that druggies were not welcome. I too would have told her to go ...herself. Furthur broke up due to the drug use by the band around Jill, not Phil. In my opinion, Jill broke up the band, not drug use. Then she sells out for one more big paycheck that was FTW. Should have been called LTR (laid to rest) The FTW line up had no heart, because she has no clue what the band was meant to be and could be with the love that made them what they were. She will go down forever as the Yoko Ono of the Grateful Dead. Now, no one but Bobby will play with Phil, so, she took all the toys and went home, how's that working for you now. Phil went from one of the greats to being a restaurant owner. Sad, really sad.

smile, smile, smile

What’s been posted about the FTW book is enough to appease my curiosity. I get it-- can imagine what it would be like if I was still living in a house with my old college buddies and their girlfriends. Tempers flare hottest around those you know best. Best to just go on your own and listen to some June ’76. Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a pile....

'76 Indeedee

Kevjones I'm right there with you man. They don't call me Seventy-Sixtus for nothin' And never forget June 11th 1976, which I tout at least 76 times a year - an all time favorite among many other favorites in a favorite year. FAVORITE!! https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-11.141709.sbd.miller.fixed.flac16… Tigran comes home today. I'll put some '76 on for him. Seventy-Sixtus

76......

.......not a big fan. It seems I'm in the minority here (-all dead is good dead-) but it lacks the imagination of 72-74, and lacks the power of 77 (or 78). I'm hoping for some primal 60's or 79-81, now that I just got 6 hot shows from 73-74. But hey, I'm sure I will be happy with whatever I get. Hope everyone is well. I've been listening to a lot of Yes lately, as I'm seeing them in Detroit on Saturday. Close to the Edge is an album that always works for me.

Jill Lesh....

....sounds like a bitch. I bet she rocks one of those "I want to see your manager" bob hair styles too.

76

Huge fan of 76, my 1st show was 10/9; by the fall of that year they were firing on all cylinders. Too bad(for us) they took such a long break before new year's eve, the last show 10/15 is a barn burner with one of the best 2nd sets of the year.

re: 76 - got some DL V4 spinning

All this seventysixtus talk... Got the Capitol Theatre show streaming from the Download Vol4 release. Never gave those DL's the nurturing they deserve. I guess I'm biased towards the physical product I can hold in my hand... Bonus nothing better than a Mission in the Rain from 1976 unless it's one from JGB in 1978 ;)

76

I'm with Doc (and Thursday) on this one. 76 = The GD on Valium. Does nothing for me. Lot's of folks love it, but I get bored silly listening to it. By the way D&C seem to be headed down that path as well. The summer shows have been way to slow for my taste.

Slow D&C

The cause of the slow tempos are detailed in the FTW book; it's all Bobby's doing: his concept is to sing the songs very slowly, to emphasize the story telling aspect of them. I'm guessing he might have gotten that from Jerry, for example when he slowed down Friend of the Devil(which I never understood: the original tempo conveyed the running from the devil exactly perfect)

RE: fare thee well, or good bye Phil and Jill

Well said Unkle Sam... "She will go down forever as the Yoko Ono of the Grateful Dead."

re FTW

To me phil comes off as playing in a Grateful Dead covers band. I never have had any interest is seeing any post dead. It seems that Bob is trying not to recreate what the dead did but pay the music homage by presenting it in a different light. I am now interested in seeing Bob again in something like his campfire band or even Dead and company. I think like the wheel he has moved on from the past and embraced the present with a view to the future. Good for you Bob and our drummers.

FTW and 1976-count me out

I can't say I'll be rushing to read this book on Fare Thee Well. From what people are saying on here it sounds ghastly. In fact, I'm amazed such a book has been published. I'm not keen on 1976, either. Some of the drifting jams appeal to me-but it sounds like a massive comedown from all the previous years to me. It seems quite an easy listening sort of year. And the shows in 1975 had such promise, too.

D&C slowness

Was watching the rebroadcast of the Mansfield show and one of the commenters who was commenting (or was that trolling) during the broadcast was railing against the slowness and suggested changing the stream to 1.25. I did that and boy did the music seem normal pace. I felt that the D&C shows I saw at Fenway and the Boston Garden were painfully slow last year. More so than the Worcester show for that 1st D&C tour or that first Fenway run (Loved that Acoustic Dark Star). I still loved going to those shows, but after seeing D&C 7 times probably not up for the exorbitant prices the enterprise is charging for not the best seats when JRAD, JGB, DSO can scratch that itch for a lot less scratch. I'm glad the music is out there and hope they continue to perform as long as they're putting quality performances but getting a tad bit too slow for me. Bobby just needs to let John, Oteil and Jeff run with it for a bit. BTW - who is Grateful Dean (Dean Stiller) - I think he is hillarious for his YouTube reviews and seems pretty spot on.

Bobby's Greatest Hits....

https://youtu.be/j0VM5DkErMs....as per Grateful Dean.

Psst..

You didn't hear it from me.. but I hear Steve Parish had Bobby's lovechild and has been raising it in secrecy all these years. It shouldn't surprise any of us that after 50 years there are squabbles. If any of you come from bigger families.. I bet there are a few skeletons in your closet too, and I bet we would be horrified if someone researched and wrote a tell-all book. The truth, we weren't there and no matter what was written there is a likely more to it then how it reads. I have no doubt it's based on real events but it seems to focus on the negative. I sincerely believe deep down inside these guys still love each other and are proud of the body of work they left behind just like I love my brothers and sisters, but I won't be moving back in with them anytime soon. I'm also sure there's a little bad blood.. I threw a screwdriver, a pair of scissors and a can of Spegetti-O's at my brother one day (although honestly.. he deserved worse). I'd like to think all is forgiven.. and honestly, I think we are better off in the way they have diversified and played / interacted with different artists. As for who is the biggest poser and the cover band aspect of it all.. Really? These guys have earned the right to play GD music how ever they see fit. I recently saw Phil Lesh and Friends backed up by the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and it was hardly a cover band. Fresh interpretations that strayed pretty far from the original arrangements. It was fresh, powerful and downright wonderful. I'd see that lineup again in a New York Minute. Let the music play.. it speaks for itself. Step to the side of the small talk and gossip. Just my opinion.. As always, I reserve the right to be tragically and horrifically wrong.

FTW: to set the record straight

Most of the book focuses on the business dealings; what comes across as negative gossip is tied to these events. The exception being the "encounter" between Billy and Jill's twins :-) but really, it was only a quick one sentence mention.The detailed descriptions of how the post-Jerry bands evolved, how Terrapin Xroads and Bob's TRI studio came into existence, of the organizing of the FTW shows, and more are indeed quite interesting.

They love each other ("core 4")

JimInMD writes: "I sincerely believe deep down inside these guys still love each other and are proud of the body of work they left behind..." Old story I think, I first heard a statement similar to that was about in early 1996 just after they retired the name Grateful Dead and still deeply mourning the death their dear brother, Jerome John Garcia.

Re: Cousins

Does that mean I am not forgiven for throwing a can of Spagetti-O's at my brother? :D

Nigeria came so close...

I really wanted them to win. Hope the French crush Messi and his buddies next Saturday!

Spagetti-Os Incident

It all depends if the can was opened or closed.

Variety

I think it’s Grate that 76 doesn’t sound like 74, 75, 77, or 78.It would be pretty boring if every year sounded the same.

Spagetti-O's Incident

It was closed.. left quite the hematoma as I recall. It's one of the few brawls that I clearly won (he's older).. so I am a bit proud of it. If I had given it more thought, I would have opened it first for good measure.

Brawls

Funny, my last brawl(I was 17) started after I dumped a rice plate over this guy's head durimg lunch...rivalry over a girl, no less.

Jimmy's Can Toss & FTW Summary

As always, so eloquently said and very fair. All excellent points. Speghetti-Oh's story made me chuckle out loud, I have two brothers myself and fully understand said 'brotherly love'. Be well my friend. Sixtus P.S. icecremconekid - your point is also spot on. Life is all about variety, change, adaptation, and love. All Good Things.

Spaghetti-O's....

....yuck. No nutritional value whatsover. Would make a good blunt weapon i suppose.

Book

I haven't read it yet but I'm sure I eventually will (seems like the perfect book to buy in the airport before a long flight). From what I've read and heard though, all of this seems pretty tame compared to other bands "tell all" books. You mean to tell me a band that's been together since 1965 has had their ups and downs? Has had to deal with power struggles or strong personalities? I'm shocked. Also, there isn't a band in the history of bands who didn't have an incident where someone made a pass (or worse) at another guy's wife or girlfriend. Meanwhile the shows (d&c or Phil) continue to be a great time and the music coming out of the vault is as exciting as ever.

Spirit of 76

I really enjoy 1976 Dead. In fact I always go back to Dave’s volume 18. Those 4 discs are phenomenal.

UH OH

SpaghettiOs! Sorry.

Today in Grateful Dead history....

....a show from this box!

fuck yeah! spaghetti-O's w/

fuck yeah! spaghetti-O's w/ meatballs! hated the hot dog one. I miss chef Boyardee pac man pasta was a big hit with kids like me who was way into Atari. spaghetti o's, cherry kool aid and Atari. 'MERICA! FUCK YEAH! lol

@frosted Box Material

I'm hoping for some kind of wood... my cynical soul is saying plastic... Damn... I hope it's not plastic. There's too much of it in the oceans already; it would be kind of depressingly ironic if this one were made of plastic, given the artistry it bares.

Box Material

They are typically heavily processed wood (some sort of glued fibers or essentially a form of cardboard). I hope I'm wrong but doing something like this out of wood just isn't that common and production can be problematic. I am thinking something along the lines of 30 Trips. Plus.. it's painted, so they cover it up anyway. Just being realistic.. I have a ton of box sets, not just GD and the only one I have that is made out of wood is the Warlocks cigar box, and even that is pretty cheesy. ...but if it's wood, I vote for Cherry. Love Cherry, or perhaps zebra striped maple to look like Mayer's new guitar. That would be something.

House to Myself

This week and next.. what a wonderful thing. Plus, it's still raining here almost every day and the creeks are full.. but back to the music. I am a closet streamer.. when I am interested in something I purchase from Nugs and sometimes just don't have time to watch and listen, but they seem to stick around for a while. Last week I noticed for the first time that one of my unwatched streams was about to expire (from five years ago). Blasphemy I say. So I watched it and by the end of the night I was in no shape to start work by 8 am the next day. So I worked a half day and life was good. Tonight, in honor of my favorite GD cover band I am watching for the first time a Phil N Friends show from 2014 at the Brooklyn Bowl, Vegas (..not slated to expire). JK and Jackie Greene on Guitars.. some simply killer slide guitar on GDTRFB from Senor Greene Joe Russo on drums. Seems ok to me.. Hipsters, tripsters real good chicks sir.. everybody's Doing That Rag. It's too bad this technology wasn't around say.. 55 years ago. Oh.. and the tempo is fast, and it is loud enough to shake the plaster off the ceiling. Fortunately, the river is raging outside so ambient noise gets lost in the shuffle. I bet my neighbors can't even hear it. Life is good. Might sleep in a bit mañana (don't tell my boss).
