Grateful Dead

Don’t think anyone had mentioned this one today, but it’s certainly worthy....I blasted it through my neighborhood at 9:00am this morning while shoveling the latest round of winter with nothing but stems and caps.....followed it up with the complete show from 03/03/81 at the Cleveland Music Hall...both phenomenal and played directly from the archive....my driveway is now shoveled and my garage is clean 😊

Then back inside to the fire and Jimmy Cliff, and now velvet underground....Max’s KC...so, so good!

Happy Sunday Dead Peeps...hope its been good to you!

I'm familiar with the Jai-Alai 6/24 Dark Star and the Let It Rock I think was the one released as a bonus track. Would love to check out the whole shebang. Will PM you.

yeah, that Anthem bonus show is a nice little gem, especially considering there's only, what, one other official 1967 complete performance (30 Trips). If you're interested (or anyone), I shared out a link to some unique cover art I made for that 10/22/67 show, aka "Anthem Of The Moon"

Nothing like a rousing game of Risk. I've been looking for the version I grew up on, where the single armies are y shaped and the group of 10 armies look like an asterisk. tough find, even on Ebay.

...hello everyone, hope everyone is having a ‘grateful’ Sunday safe and comfy.
I can’t remember the quantity but I think the vinyl is 4,600 and the 2CD is 2,600, I don’t want to confirm this statement because of memory problems because of medical. I’ll have to look into that...
I was listening to 4/16/72 at the university in Denmark. The fifth show performed during the Grateful Dead’s Europe 72’ Tour which was released in the box-set as # 5 !!!
Great recording made and saved/preserved inside a university. ;)
Really love the energy and playing from the whole band and on top of that Jerry is just sweet as roses IMO. Have s safe grateful loving evening, god bless brothers n sisters : )

....don't mind if I do!

Just for the anticipation alone. We are getting new DaPs, we have a new Garcia box on the way, more Dead boxes for sure, all of us have tickets coming in to our various events, we get to see our friends in our favorite settings.....god dammit this is better than Christmas. Good times abound!

....my radar pinged. We need to get a petition going. They played there three times, and all three are grate. I'll buy two, if that helps. You people know how to get my attention. Love Risk as well. Old school rules though. Not the new ones. Huge difference....Go Knights Go!! It's time to drop the puck.
....edit. Anyone know how to make the Bouncey Jam a smartphone ringtone?

Lovemygirl, thanks for the set list. Looks like this is kinda a new release since the original Arista release selected songs from the entire Warfield and Radio City runs.

I LOVE that 67 bonus that came with the Anthem 50th release! Primordial Dead, for sure!

I'm having a nice Sunday here in B'more too... playing some games with the wife (just destroyed her at Yahtzee... now on to domination of Essos in Game of Thrones RISK - that's a LONG player, for sure!) Also, I picked up some Jai-Alai IPAs from Cigar City Brewing (Tampa, FL.) Sure, I've already had one, don't judge ;)

Found it only appropriate to put on the Hunter Matrix of 6/24/74 at Jai-Alai Fronton. What a unique show! It definitely has moments that are a little shaky, but it's just such a quirky little gem, with some truly fierce playing throughout. 1st closes with WRS>China Doll, the 2nd set opens with a gorgeous little Jam>Ship of Fools... oh, there's the only (I think) Let it Rock, and a Dark Star>Spanish Jam too. Good stuff. Methinks this would make a good pick, but then again, what about Santa Fe? :)

Happy Sunday, DeadLand!

documentary about Bob Weir

nothing Earth-shattering, but a good docu.

God bless you, Bob.

Icecreamconeheadkid - I was also bummed about not seeing 2/28/69 this year. I don't even have a functioning system to support a turntable, but I was ready to pull the trigger if it looked like we'd be getting all 4 in 4 years.

Brandon - it's funny, I damn near wrote the exact same thing you did yesterday about the 4 versions of the The Eleven. Captcha was kicking my butt though, so I made a quick getaway.

Anyone find an Eleven better than Two From The Vault? The previous night at the Shrine 8/23 gets a lot of fanfare, but I'm missing something in that one, compared to 8/24. Seems like the jamming and vocals are not as tight on 8/23 (but as far as Elevens go, it's still top-shelf). I also like 11/2/69 quite a bit. I think that's the one. Jerry gives a vocal "whooooooooa!" in the transition from St. Stephen, it's really intense in the car with the volume turned up to....(Dr. Evil pinky grin).

Gotta multi-year mix going with some French Roast. Things couldn't be better, as far as moments go.
