Who's up for a revolutionary evolutionary ride? DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 1/2/70 captures the Grateful Dead as they make their first foray from the experimental 60s into their early 70s acoustic Americana period. Yes, this one is a little bit country and a little bit (psychedelic) rock and roll.

When the "Magnificent Seven" - Pigpen on percussion, T.C. on keys - first took the stage on 1/2/70, evidence was clear that the trip was about to take a turn. From their western wears to the twang in Jerry’s “broken-string blues,” it appeared they'd brought the Bakersfield sound to the Big Apple. They worked through much of what would become Workingman's Dead, stunning the crowd with laid-back numbers like "Uncle John's Band," "Casey Jones," and "Black Peter." Just the same, they satisfied 60s stalwarts with magical versions of "Dark Star," "St. Stephen," and "That's It For The Other One." Sonic alchemy, indeed!

DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, New York 1/2/70 has been rounded out with a bit of 1/3/70 (the subscribers-only bonus disc features the bulk of 1/3/70). It was recorded by the great Owsley "Bear" Stanley and has been lovingly mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30 is limited to 20,000 individually-numbered copies*.

*Limited to 2 per order. Very limited quantity available.

posted again for slow dog noodle - USPS not UPS

I received the shipping email with the tracking number over a week ago. Every time I checked the shipment was going nowhere. The tracking number goes to the UPS website so I copied the tracking number and pasted into the USPS website and it says it should be delivered today. Everyone who is seeing that the UPS tracking as not giving the shipment status try going to the USPS site.

Favorite team vs. a good game

Depends on the sport. Ask any lifelong Red Sox fan if they would give up coming back from an 0-3 deficit and beating that team from ny in 2004 for not having to endure generations of disappointment. Not a single one of them would. That is why it was so meaningful.

As for the sports themselves.

Squeakball is a joke. I could care less who wins. It is unwatchable.

Baseball is not far behind. I only watch the post season any more, but even that is becoming less frequent.

Football? Rapidly losing interest in that as well. Go ask the NO Saints why.

To me, hockey is (or at least was) the lone remaining sport yet to be defiled. The players, for the most part, are in it for the game and to win the Cup. Not the money. There is no money in hockey. That is why I like it.

I'll take a good hockey game regardless of the outcome over my team winning every time. I am a Red Wings fan and have no allegiance to the outcome this year. The third period last night was some great hockey. Watched and enjoyed every minute.

But, the refereeing this post season has really soured me. Taking that goal away last night was egregious. It goes against everything the sport is supposed to stand for. You want to take a goal away because a player who is a 100 feet away and has his back to the play is a bit too slow getting off the ice. Fine. Then take it away. But at least be consistent and give the Avalanche a "too many men" penalty as well. Simpletons.

The sport has been played for generations where it is accepted that during line changes, the player going onto the ice jumps a fraction or so before his counterpart gets off the ice. Never a problem unless you are involved in the play. He wasn't.

Alligators / El Paso

The main plaza of El Paso used to have live alligators in the fountain . Thought I would mention something interesting. Still waiting for 30 in back water America. Take some deep breaths , breath in, breath out, on and on.

Disc 3

I pretty much feel like disc 3 alone is worth the cost of this release. Haven't had a chance to listen to the bonus disc yet, and my initial listens of discs 1 and 2 were pleasant but distracted. Currently giving disc 3 a second listen and digging this Dark Star a lot, particularly when they launch into the jam of Soulful Strut starting about 23 minutes into the Dark Star. I know that a lot of people refer to this recurring jam as the Tighten Up jam, but if you compare it to Soulful Strut by Young-Holt Unlimited I think you'll hear the similarities, particularly the melody, whereas it does not sound like Tighten Up by Archie Bell and the Drells. The example in the 10/31/71 Jam after Dark Star is strikingly similar to Soulful Strut and is probably the best version to hear the similarities.

Dead Night in the City of Light / Day of the Dead

I just finished up the second Paris show and Bickershaw.

Bickershaw is a fantastic show. Everyone knows about the great Dark Star into The Other One. Everyone knows about the great Lovelight . Check out the Rider, BTW, and the PITB. Of course they're all great on this tour, but this show features a snapier Garcia on those three tracks. Black-Throated Wind - did it ever sound better than Europe 72? Keith is very audible throughout most of the show too, which is tragically not the case for many on this tour. Don't get me started on the engineering...

Butch - yeah, didn't you read the story I posted about emailing him for the tracklist of the bonus disc? We tight :D. No, but seriously, he had nothing to do with it and I've never met him. The RFK thing was something that I did to let him know that all of us message "Board Heads" would gobble up a 1973 RFK two show mini box. He was gracious enough to reply to me ( I say gracious, because I imagine he has more work to do on a day-to-day basis then I can even imagine; so for him to take the time to reply to it was a gesture that I think goes beyond his call of duty). In any event, his reply about the RFK possibility was one that he preferred I kept between us, so I did. He was going to give us a shout out on the next Seaside chat, but I think he forgot.

Darkstar - apology accepted, no worries. Sometimes things tldon't come across in writing the way we intend.

I saw a Golden Gate Park video from 1991 of the Dead playing Touch of Grey. I guess there's a whole video floating around somewhere. That was fun to watch.

Now I have to somehow fit Buffalo '77 in. Take two hundred and seventy-six, you know this used to be fun...

Dave's 30

I too am in tracking purgatory. Really like to hear this one but I guess in the meantime i'll have to keep playing Electirc on the Eel and Zorn's Salem 1692. Maybe UPS just wants to make sure everything is just exactly perfect with the shipment.

1/3, AVs, Weed

1/3/70; only superficial listen so far but besides that amazing disc three, I’m with the 1/3 crowd. Perhaps my reference point was more in order for 1/3, but overall it does seem to be a bit tighter etc. Also think perhaps there’s a little more energy from 1/3s first show versus 1/2...... of course all that is splitting hairs as both have their yin/yang, and so far none of it can compare with that monster Dark Star and all of disc three. (Had to check that out again!)
Imho that was more than worth the $25 bucks right there!
And like Jim says, it’s a great snapshot of GD history and though perhaps there is more sloppy stuff on here than normal for a Dave’s, it is interesting to experience them figuring things out. Perhaps not unlike the first Estimated and Terrapin from the last release. Those obviously were a little farther along and the band was hitting a new stride then, but same idea. I’m sure the stuff they started on later in the year will be even more raw and unpolished and with less of the monster jams, but one could argue that 72 wouldn’t have been so great without this transitional period?

AVS; we’ll they came to play but you can’t beat the cosmic forces of sports, or the refs.....I’m not that invested in it, hell not that into any sports anymore, like A.J.S., or cone Kid?, says it’s not worth it, and this is a good example why.....it seems to me that more and more things are not say “fixed,”, but that the various leagues seem to sometimes help certain teams along, which since it’s all about money now is not surprising. From what I saw of the last three Knights games and the whole AVs series it does seem like their a tad pro Sharks....and yes that NO GOAL still is hard to swallow even after all these years. There is no way the Sharks should of made it out of round one, even without the “call”!
I watched money ruin my precious childhood love for Baseball, the NFL is a fucking joke now, and Hockey is following the same path, sigh.......but that’s why then and now I always felt like you won with the Dead, even a meh night was better than most sports!
WEED; all y’all have gone round most of this, but as someone who has seen so much go on with this issue for many decades now, and who lives in a Green state, I would just like to make a few points....
- Generally didn’t dig Wrecked’s post, but sorta can relate to the concern about a majority of folks being high all the time. The thing is, the evidence has clearly shown that usage among the general population has not changed, which is what the initial research before legalization suggested. In other words just because it’s legal, doesn’t mean the whole world is using it. Which is good only because;
- The only real issues that the authorities and the media have reported is the miss use of, especially edibles, usually by out of state tourists who are not properly informed or experienced. This to me is just another case of irresponsible behavior, which IMO is the problem with most things.....it’s no so much the substance (s), it’s wether it’s used responsibly or not. Similar to the whole “guns don’t kill people, people kill people” argument. It’s not the weed, it’s the misuse off. So education, or mentoring like most of us old timers got when starting out is the more logical answer, not locking people up!
The cool related thing is here, if your outta state, the bud tenders will try to question, suggest, and give guidance, but of course you can lead a horse to water, but......
The other issue in Colorado, is they left the home grown thing a bit too loose i.e., quantity, so that the black market folks have an easier time with illegal grows and then are transporting it through other non legal states who are going out of their way to find it, then bitching about how much it’s costing their states to fight it. This also has led to a whole profiling situation not unlike being a Deadhead on the road back in the eighties!
But the biggest problem I see, and perhaps relates to Trainwrecked’s comments, is the ole “careful what you wish for”.
Meaning, the cops now are going way out of their way to look for illegal use especially with driving etc. They have been in a frantic rush to try to quantify thc in the same unconstitutional methodology they employ for alcohol.
Don’t get me wrong, there are unfortunately too many people who are not responsible, don’t have enough experience, have acquired no tolerance and/or who’s bodies metabolize these substances differently than most.
So though I believe there needs to be some criteria, once again, the law is going about it all wrong, and many innocent folks are going to get fucked! But that’s part of what you get when you create for profit government institutions, but I digress, sorry!
All I’m saying is be careful folks and be safe! Here it is almost the norm now for a search for any traffic stop, probable cause or not. That is one of the shitty consequences of legalization......

1/3/70 Bonus Disc....

Is superb!!!!!!!!!! Non-subscribers need to reassess just based on this one! :) Anyway - I dont know if its blasphemy or not, but aside from the Dark Star and Pig rave-ups on 1/2 Im really enjoying the 1.3 stuff a bit more - the Cryptical- Other One is epic and lush and frenetic and fucking beautiful. They just seem a little more "on" and the ,ix seems more balanced. Agree with some others that Phil's bass always says yes, but sometimes his vocals say "no" and there are a few rough spots with his voice. But isnt that what we love about this band - the humanity of it? The total experience of a Dead show could sometimes be a microcosm of the larger game we all are playing - things move from cringe worthy and unstructured to transcendent and harmonious for a few splendid moments before the entropy takes hold again. But you still gotta be a grateful participant in both high tide and low and keep trying! The ride IS the destination :) That was always the message I got from this band and their music! So Phil's shrieks are, in thier own way, just as welcome as his bass lines rocket launching me into into Never ever land! :)

Bolo hint.....

His last post earlier included the language " at the Oakland Coliseum Arena, where I spent many, many nights listening to the GOGD."...this seems to hint towards an Oakland Coliseum Box Set, the GOGD played end of the year shows there from 1979-1982, bring it on!!

My main guess would still be a Warfield Box Set....how long do we have to wait & why are they selling that ridiculous Woodstock Box set on dead.net?!?!

Captcha

I forgot to mention that I use the ultra power saving mode on this site. I do this because I don't need color and it saves me battery time when I'm out. This may be the reason why it does not sign me out. It has to be something I'm doing because I never need to do all those pictures. Strange.

6-18 anniversary

6-18-74 in the car today.
As Jim pointed out, ‘chop job’.
Maybe time to revisit with a Plangentization of the whole show. Returned reels?

Box Set announcement withdrawal.......

reCRAPTCHA disaster

The system seems to be operating very slow.

Or maybe they are just trying to drive us away since there is not going to be a new Box announcement this year.

Or maybe Count Vlad is hacking the system in an attempt to get back the reels.

SPAC and Random Weirdness

Checked out that article on the SPAC shows VGuy posted, brought back a lot of good memories. I was giving the 6/27/85 Crazy Fingers another listen after almost 34 years and once it gets going that is some good stuff. Continuing with the Supplication and High Time. I would be all in for an official release of that '85 SPAC show. While listening to some of the '85 show I scanned the rest of the article - which brings me to the random weirdness.

Over the weekend I stepped out onto my patio and much to my surprise heard what sounded an awful lot like some dead coming from the direction of the neighbors house. I must have looked like the RCA dog to my wife and daughter, who gave me much grief and chuckled at my homing in on the sound of the dead. After listening for a minute, I could hear it was a live version of Row Jimmy followed by Victim or the Crime and then someone shut the car off and the music stopped. While reading the SPAC retrospective and scanning the set list for the '88 show, I noticed the show contains a Row Jimmy followed by Victim. Random weirdness.

Boned by Amazon

Ordered cd and lp copies of Warfield from amazon 2 months ago(+/-). Emails saying it's coming, then coming tomorrow, then today by 8, then sorry we ain't go no lp's and we'll let you know about the cd's!

Bastards!

Re: Charlie3

Was the car a maroon BMW with CA tags? I'm pretty sure that was just Bolo fucking with you.

SPAC '85

Hanging from the balcony wasn't really an option for me- there simply wasn't anywhere to stand or sit. You have to remember, this is the night they crammed 40K into a 25K venue....but honestly there was a part of me that wanted an exasperated Bobby to holler "don't hang from the balcony idiot".

I forgot about the Road Trips WoS anniversary. Those might be the best sounding shows from '74. The Wolf sounds extra crispy. Getting dialed in now.

Hanging from the balcony....

....I told keithfan "No! Thal shall not pass!" But he did. He said the gravity was fine. Who am I to argue? Until Phil and Bobby sent us to the corner with no pudding. Smokestack set us on the correct path though.

Warfield '80

Dennis, the CD is still available here at dead.net, not sure if you knew.

Jim, I will Be On the Look Out for the maroon BMW.

LOTR's

Nice Lord of the Rings reference VGuy.. like this crowd wouldn't notice that...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wpx6XnankZ8

All you have to do is answer three questions. ..and you can pass.

I also threw in a Wall reference....

.... pudding is the shit!
And the Holy Grail from you. "Green. No blue!"
Listening to SPAC '85 currently. Yeah....sounds....drippy.
My Warfield CD came all the way from Germany in between "in stock" and "out of stock" notices.
The next night is Blossom. One of the first tapes I got. Yum.
Dammit David Lemieux! Summer '85 would make for a great box.

Calling out marye and davidl....

....how about an AMA from you? I know you are listening. I have front row tix.

the box?

So have we reached a consensus on what's most likely for the next box set? Probably a '91 Hornsby-era box, right? It might make the most sense. There hasn't been a Hornsby box yet, and it would coincide nicely with the movie meet-up. The digital sound quality should be excellent and musically the Hornsby era is highly regarded. That would be fine with me, especially if we get some good jams, maybe a Bird Song or two? I'm not familiar enough with the era to guess which shows would be good candidates.
I did re-read bolo's clues. complete gibberish this time

Box Set Prediction

I am just about 100% sure that when the box is announced we will be discussing it on the DaP 31 thread. Since DaP31 is supposed to drop around August 2, seems like that announcement should come by mid-July, well before the next box set is announced at the MUATM.

...random SPAC / charlie3

...funny, I was JUST listening to that Crazy Fingers > Supplication myself last evening right before the boys went on at SPAC....that '85 show is a lot of fun, balcony idiots included.

Sixtus

P.S. any time a Lord of the Rings / Gandalf reference and pudding are made in the same sentence, this makes me happy

*Re/ First Boxset 2019

...”I feel thin... stretched. Like butter scraped over too much bread”...🙏❤️💀

...today’s listening pleasure will begin with, ‘Daves Picks’ #5, UCLA performance. I wish I had the Bonus Disc, I’ve long gone sold that CD for some meds...still, this show is a “Killer”!!! One of my top Five Favorites performances released from the Daves Picks Series! (Vault/Audio Quality)...

Box set 2019

You'll be amazed my friends! Every Deadhead will be overjoyed by this box set! Lemieux and Norman have done such a great job with the selection and the quality this time that nobody is going to be disappointed who's a Dead fan! It won't be long now. Stay patient my friends. And the artwork is Primo.

Lovemygirl

You wrote in your subject: "*Re/ First Boxset 2019".

Are you saying that there is a clue about what the box said is in your post where you go on to say:
"feel thin... stretched. Like butter scraped over too much bread”...🙏❤️💀

Obviously another Lord of the Rings quote, but is ot a clue or do you not really know the box set? Just curious

2019 Box Set is Here!

I couldn't wait any longer and put together my own release. I uploaded Miller FLACs to my VOX player this morning.

6/25, 27, 28, 30 and 7/1 1985 - listening party in my truck!!

EDIT - I posted this and then scrolled down to read recent posts and see that these shows are already in the news around here - synchronicity?!!

Warfield

Thanks for the pointer to dead.net for the Warfield CD. I ordered one from the dead and cancelled the Amazon cd order. But I did find that although "amazon" was unable to provided the vinyl, one of their 3rd party vendors had it. (MovieMars). The lp's were 40 bucks.

I guess I'll find out if I'm really getting them soon enough :-)

2019 Box Release

Okay MinasMorgul, have you seen the box? What else can you tell us?
When is the announcement coming?

Thank you!

MinasMorgul

"the Minas touch"

do you reeeeeally know something we don't?

I agree we will like it, but I'm sure someone somewhere will complain about something.

I am getting a bit starved for GD. lots of unusual occurrences in my life right now, severely limiting my time to listen to the band beyond description.

my guess is he knows nothing...

Just being Mean-Ass Morgul, trying to make fun of a frequent poster on here.

Box set 2019

Nobody will complain? You're kidding right?

No. It was More like rubbing the jeanie bottle

Train wreck asked a question to my good friend LMG. I was being rambunchus and piggy backed off his question. Trying to get my good friend LMG to speak further to it since he does know. Nothing more.

Two years ago I would have concluded this post with something to the people who responded badly about my original post with something like 'but thanks for rushing to judgement ya dickheads'

But that's not me anymore. I told you. I tried changing to MinasIthil on dead net but it errors out when I go to login for the 1st time. Box set? I've seen way more than a box set. The box set seems momentous right now to everyone. but in the timeline of every person reading this it's about as important as catching your breath after getting the wind knocked out of you. That's a fact.

I haven't rubbed my genie bottle for quite a while...

and I haven't rubbed a box set for quite a while, either...

Just Curious

MinasIthil, is that an image from "What About Bob?" as your avatar? For what it's worth, your initial post about the undoubtedly fantabulous upcoming box seemed like a fairly good natured jab at the sometimes intense speculation about what the next box will be, at least to me. I will admit, I am glad others were critical so that you could demonstrate your emotional maturity and restraint by not calling them dickheads;) That cracked me up.

Emotional Maturity

It's a long road Chuck.

B buster

I think when tensions get high, ball busting is just a whole lot of fun. Some people are just to sensitive on here. Us guys have to bust balls when stupid things are said. It's in our nature. Peace!

This Release

Gave discs 1 & 2 of this release another listen this afternoon after a little break from the dead over the last few days, and man is it hitting the spot. I liked it the first time that I listened to it, but disc 3 was so good it just overshadowed the rest of the release. Particularly digging the Pigpen stuff this time through.

Emotional maturity is something that I am sure I lack. I generally just stick to faking adulthood. I seem to recall a poem by Hartley Coleridge on the topic...

Long time a child, and still a child, when years
Had painted manhood on my cheek, was I, -
For yet I lived like one not born to die;
A thriftless prodigal of smiles and tears,
No hope I needed, and I knew no fears.
But sleep though sweet, is only sleep, and waking
I waked to sleep no more, at once o'ertaking
The vanguard of my age, with all arrears
Of duty on my back. Nor child, nor man,
Nor youth, nor sage, I find my head is grey,
For I have lost the race I never ran:
A rathe December blights my lagging May;
And still I am a child, tho' I be old,
Time is my debtor for my years untold.

no dice

Prospect fell through, lil bummed. But not end of world. Thanks for the support all.

Well said Carlo

So true. I threw up in my mouth a couple weeks ago when someone was griping about getting busted on for a comment they were most certainly asking for. If you're going to spew questionable nonsense and then play the dodge and obfuscate game when called upon, then someone's going to take notice and call BS. And if you don't like it, just say tough luck ya dickheads (Minas). Guys are guys and we bust stones from time to time.

Wilfred

Sorry it didn’t work out, but maybe something better will happen in the long run.
“I don’t trust in nothin’, but I know it come out right”

DARK-STAR

And how!!! P.S. this new box set seems to be on everyone's mind. I hope it's a short and sweet one. The small boxes seem more interesting to me and less chance of problems like the PNW box, like I've heard.

Shoreline 89

Ah yes...Shoreline 89, I believe that was the second year of Shoreline. Shoreline was fun, as long as we were in the 100's, which we usually were. We called it the house that Bill built.

Shoreline....

....we used to call it home away from home. The sun sets behind the crowd, so sunglasses by the bands playing there were a necessity, esp on Sunday early shows. God I miss Jerry.

More ball busting for the guys

Maybe the humour, if such it was ,got lost in translation. It always seems better to me when someone is trying to laugh with someone, rather than at them. Maybe I've got it wrong...in which case apologies all round. But if be careful, because tomorrow the joke could be on...you.

Have a grateful day everyone! I’ve been in bed recovering for the last week or more. One day at a time. In lots of pain recently. I’ll be better soon, I’m not a victim I’m a survivor !
Rock on my brothers and sisters, god bless and smile smile smile! Time is precious!...

Little boxes

.....makes me think of that old song that they used for the theme song for that show Weeds....
Speaking of boxes....

WADEOCU; your box sounds perfect!

Charlie; say it ain’t so.....but your probably right about finding out about Dave’s 31 first, but man I hope not..

LMG; “first box of 2019” so there’s more than one this year? Hmmmm? Well that would be something, but they better hurry up as some people are on a budget and stacking them up can’t be good for business, and the year is rapidly passing......so you’d think they’d want to space then accordingly etc.....

6/20 Anniversary Show

Thought I'd listen to an anniversary show today at the office and came across this great '74 soundboard from Atlanta. Can't go wrong with Summer '74 and so far this one sounds great to my ear! Very relaxed but not boring. Keith and Bill are very prominent in the mix which is interesting and welcomed by me. The U.S. Blues opener and a Scarlet with great sounding Donna backing vocals are the highlights so far. Can't wait for that second set although seems like a short show for the era. Enjoy!

Joking v. Bullying...

...can be a fine line sometimes. To my sensibilities nothing posted lately seems to have been on the bullying side of the coin, but seems more along the lines of joking with friends and acquaintances. Daverock, hopefully I did not cause or contribute to any bad feelings.

Oroborous, Weeds was a great show for the first few seasons, then it kind of switched up the premise and I lost interest. But the Andy and Doug (Kevin Nealon) stuff in the first 3 seasons or so was the highlight for me, some of their exchanges were priceless. As far as the order of the announcement of DaP 31 and the next box, I'm pretty sure the planned announcement of the box is August 1 at MUATM although it seems like maybe last year it leaked before the official announcement. DaP 31 is set for release on or about August 2, so that announcement will have to come at least a couple of weeks early so there is time for folks to purchase the 3 available for purchase al a carte. Whatever the order, it ought to be a couple of announcements coming between mid-July and August. And no, the comment about there being 3 available for purchase al a carte is not a prediction or inside knowledge, just a sarcastic reference to the undoubtedly low number actually available.

re: Weeds

I remark to my better half Ingrid, often in moments of off-guard wonderment, how I can't actually believe we've finally achieved what occurred in 'Weeds', in real life. What seemed like, literally, a total impossibility but with 'man-wouldn't-that-be-fucking-awesome-if-it-were-real' as the running mantra...BOOM! Here we are. Weed is legal. At least in my state, and several others. It's only a matter of time.

This was all a dream we dreamed, one afternoon long ago

Yea, after over forty years of being a “criminal”! It’s still hard to fathom....unfortunately, I’m still paranoid lol, old habits die hard! I predict trump will try to use national legalization to put him over the top come election time....
a) it’ll help him with the youth vote, and
b) all the one percenters are seeing how much money there is to be made and are bummed their missing out!
And like it or not that’s who he needs to please.....
In Colorado all the top players are all wealthy business types.......they may have the kind of folks people would expect to be running the day to day stuff, but the top dogs are the last folks on earth you’d expect to be into weed!

If only el Andy was in charge 😉

ooohhhhhhh....how I want to say something.....

but it would a political rant
