    So close!

    Forgot that the run overlapped with the 25th anniversary of the legendary July '78 shows. The first show was my favorite of the first 4 shows of the run (I think I headed home and missed the last show) but it was all sweet and good with that line up! I bought the cds for at least 3 of those - been a long while since I've spun any but really need to dig em out.

    7/6/03

    Set I - Jam > Scarlet > Fire > Good Lovin' > No More Do I, Queen Jane, Roses > Weather Report Suite

    Set II - Jam > Cryptical > Jam > Days Between > He's Gone > St. Stephen > William Tell Bridge > D/S > Peggy O, Cryptical > Eleven > Bird Song > Other One > Music Never Stopped Encore: Samson and Delilah

    edit - a Pat Metheny concert? - jelly - its tough for us living in the middle of "nowhere" when it comes to live music.

    Pat Metheny

    Last night, at The Paramount in Rutland, VT, Pat Metheny solo concert, on many different guitars through the evening. His twenty Grammy Awards only hints at the depth and breadth of his music. Primarily acoustic material first half, he pulled covers off several other instruments and a double bank of percussion a la Orchestrion period for the second half, as well sampling and looping parts to stack. Pat has not spoken about himself much at past concerts, shared some stories, though probably many of the folks in the audience long time fans, knew much of it. He spoke especially about Gary Burton and Charlie Haden. His interview with Rick Beato on utube is outstanding look into his works. He's been on tour in Europe this fall, I almost missed it when he scheduled a few shows up this way. Highly recommend catching any performances in the states later this winter into spring. Many thanks to a wonderful friend who made this possible, Pat, part of my musical fabric nearly fifty years, almost as long as the Dead. Next up, Mr. Sun does the Nutcracker at the National Gallery of Art, down the street that night, Mickey, Bobby and Billy are part of the honors at the KC.

    Broke out the Citizen Steely Dan Box this AM

    I've been whetting the palate with early/mid years of that - Then going all in with Winterland 2.23.74 next (extended by 'interpolating' so to speak, the 6.22.74 Jai Alai Fronton bonus disc in the middle to get the Playing, China/Rider, etc w/only repeat being Eyes) ... A very tasty sandwich!

    Strange how we almost crossed paths.
    I was at the 7-7-2003 The Dead @ Red Rocks. Called it my 25th anniversary show. Did a one day round trip from Montrose, including Crested Butte where my buddy lived. Phil asked us how many were here 25 years ago. Lots of hoots and hands up in answer.

    Setlist: 1- Jam > Stranger > Baby Blue > She Said > Jam > Loser, Court of Paradise (meh), Cold Rain & Snow > Even So > Deal.
    2- Jam > 'Til the Morning Comes > Jam > Candyman > Jam > Mason's Children > Jam > Piece of my Soul > Come Together > Drums/Space > W. LA Fadeaway > Sugaree, Sugar Mag. E: Box of Rain!
    Joan was superb as was Jimmy H.
    Have a burned copy of the CDs one could order on site after the show.
    Cheers

    Joan Osborne - How Sweet It Is

    Was lucky to see Joan with The Dead during the 2003 shows at Red Rocks. Such a gorgeous voice and presence. Days Between that first show! Later in the run she traded verses with Bobby on Hard to Handle and it was awesome!

    J918 - do it!

    Love 'em! Sound is superb. Very comfortable. Purchased in March on sale for $295 - replaced another pair of Senn's, can't remember which model - which I also really liked but the 650s are a whole new level in terms of sound, comfort, and build. A lot of my listening is off a Mac desktop and recently picked up an iFi ZenDAC3 headphone amp plus an iFi IPower2 5 volt power supply for the amp. Super happy.

    I see that Senn website has them on sale for $310.

    BLUECROW, how's the Senn's HD 650 treating you?

    I have a pair of Audio-Technica that are very nice

    I've seen mention of the Senn's on here and been tempted to try them

    Needed an early Bird Song and decided to go back to the source. First listen with the new headphone amp and the Senn HD 650s. A desert island disc - stunningly beautiful!!

Currently rewatching Couch Tour of the Austin show. Charlotte, Austin, how lucky you were!! Some great shows this tour. Never was in a position to follow the band thru tours. Had to pick my shows. The couch Tour is pretty great, especially for an old guy. Hope this isn’t wrong. Not trying to promote or advertise them, but thrilled to see every show of a tour, so conveniently.

AOXOMOXOA 50th anniversary disc 1- 1969 original mix

This entire production is first class, from the 3D cover (a la rolling stones satanic majesty) which I certainly would have appreciated staring at back in the day, it is truly wonderous.
The sound is perfect, the live stuff sounds better than ever, but really should use the original shows complete, in the order that the Dead created them.

Listening to Good morning little schoolgirl by the Dead and comparing it to Ten Year After version...well, what to say, as much as I dig Alvin Lee (RIP), I MUST say that Jerry's version has more soul to it. Great cover by the Dead (off their debut album!).
