During the mid-1970s, the Grateful Dead saga was unfolding like a Greek classic. The Sisyphean Wall Of Sound had nearly broken the band. From it spawned a Medusa head of countless side projects, all deliciously fruitful but woefully not the same as the whole. The chorus lay in wait, pondering the reemergence of their heroes, and wondering if "THE LAST ONE" had really been it...

But in early 1976, Apollonian light and healing would shine upon our intrepid wanderers once again. No more epic battles for the people with cops and lines and tightness, the Dead would return triumphant in smallness, playing intimate theaters and renting equipment along the way. No more ticket scams and greedy promoters, they'd give back with first ever mail-order ticket program, one that had a few kinks to work out but eventually served the fans well.

Musically, June 1976 signaled a Golden Age of harmony and prosperity for the Dead. It marked an Odysseusian-like return for Mickey Hart. Donna Jean was in lock-step with the sirens' call. Jerry and Bob delivered orphic delight with solo musings like "Mission In The Rain" (the only tour they ever played it on), "The Wheel," and "Cassidy," emboldened by group effort. There was fresh repertoire from Blues For Allah, breathing new life to the Dead's continually morphing sound - as Weir once said of the '76 tour, they wanted to play "a little bit of all of it." Old favorites were re-envisioned with cascading tempos and unique sequencing, making the crowd question if they'd ever heard these songs before. And there was comfort and joy in the familiarity of watching the band make it up as they went along. By all means, it was clear that the bacchanalia of live Dead would reign on.

And now the revelry from this epoch, evidenced by the near-studio quality sound captured on two-track live recordings by Betty Cantor-Jackson, lives on, bolstered by Jeffrey Norman's HDCD mastering. It's housed for posterity in a handsome box featuring original art work by Justin Helton. It’s documented in liners by Jesse Jarnow and photos by Grant Gouldon. And it’s ready for a spot on your shelf.

As part of our pre-order for this Dead.net exclusive boxed set, we'll be delivering downloads of each listening party - one for each show included in JUNE 1976 - to purchasers from now until the March 20th release. Order at any time before release and you'll receive all the listening parties to date.

Walking Vom

My personal favorite vomit story is from '92, I think. Had tickets to a 4 band show(Big Audio Dynamite, PIL, Live, Blind Melon. Got well oiled prior to arriving. Was drinking the last of my Samiclaus Beer(14% alcohol). Trying to get down the last of the Sami quickly, it came back up. I turned my head to the right, puked on the wall beside me, IN STRIDE, never missing a step. My buddy who was with me said "Did you just Vom"?? I smiled and replied in the affirmative. After the show, we went to a friend's house, did the best blotter I've ever had, and stayed up until daylight. A great night.

Maybe next time, I'll tell the "puked in my girlfriend's bush" story. No, it's not what you think. Get your mind out of the gutter!!
Peace and stay healthy everyone.

All this talk of Ralph unfortunately brings back the memory of seeing Monty Pythons The Meaning of Life and “that” nasty scene...people were literally running out of the Theater....thank God!

Mr Jimmy, GET A GRIP MAN! Remeber, when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro! Screw the lecherous thieving bastards! If I wasn’t under a self quarantine beer exile I’d be there in a Cassidy minute. We’d be there before the weirdness even started. But these wort hog string worm suffering inbred imbeciles are probably all ready tripping over each other each other and landing in a great big pile of drooling JP prom night madness....no mi amigo, we’re better off away from these evil bastards. Think Hot Tub, green coffee beans, high powered smoke, and chilled ripple, all powered by a good gawd dang dose of Ge-rateful, fuggin Dead, yes sir my man I’d say you got it on them shlubs,
God bless the Chile who has his own! Fuck em all but six!

Imbibing To Excess

Had a few vomit inducing drinking episodes, pissdrunk at least once. To quote Dean Martin, you're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on. Long time since I got drunk, but I remember.

Mayhem and Hoarding

Yeah, I hear you Icrmcnkd. I went to the bank in the supermarket in my town and it was chaos, lines from all the checkouts down into the aisles, no toilet paper of course (why is that the first thing to run out?). Cruised on up to the Missoula Costco for the regular shopping I do every couple of weeks and wow - virtually all of the fresh meat was gone, no TP, and pretty packed with shoppers. I'm pretty stocked up since I generally buy in bulk, but still kind of a weird vibe. Unlike VGuy I only have one freezer though. And this is at a time when Montana has no confirmed cases of Coronavirus, and most of the adjacent states had their first confirmed cases in the last day or two. Crazy.
Edit: Turns out we have 4 cases in Montana as of today.

Re: Italian

I'm actually only about 10% Italian..

To pivot.. I'm just a little deflated because I had the perfect week off, festivities planned. The whole trip being kicked off by a hijacking a full, ice cold, refrigerated beer truck delicately parking and carefully hiding it under the hemlocks out back . Alas, my plan was been foiled by some clever lurkers here, the only place I still hold trust..

And somewhere up North.. perhaps a mere 8 or 9 hour drive there is a raging party with a big screen TV, lots of folks we know carrying on partying down with plundered pilfered ice cold beer from the stolen neighborhood beer truck from down the street, dispensaries abound.. and no invite for me. I bet tomorrow we hear of some mighty fine puking stories. Out of respect.. folks, please PM the puking stories from tonight, I am very week and emotionally fragile after the loss of my beloved, stolen, refrigerated beer truck.

True.. I cannot prove KCJanes stole the beer truck moments before I intended to steal it myself, True, he drove it directly to central Mass where the real fun apparently is. But..., honor amongst thieves I don't hold a grudge. I am just a little down for not getting the invite. I have been checking my PMs twice a minute since 10:02 yesterday morning hoping I could gleefully share in the plundered spirits.. but no.. Thirsty as I am, apparently there was not enough to share. I get it.

argh.. to late to drive anyway I am giving up..., reaching for the last bottle of ripple in the wine cellar. Sort of like celebrating Christmas alone while a party rages next door.

Nevermind.. have a great weekend all. Just me and some ripple. cold. tired.. I'll be fine. Really. man, this is a nice brokedown palace they are playing. I never realized just how lonely and sad this song is. Hunter was a genius. A depressed, lonely, sad genius, but a genius nonetheless. So much to be thankful for. Kumbayahumbug.. thud (forehead coming to a sudden rest on the cold cement floor of the basement).

Beers, green, tunes, and madness

RougeDeadGuy: Nice Tunes!...and yeah, that’s why they call it the “Green Rush” Good Work, Keep your eye on the beat son!
VGUY: Dave’s 16, perhaps my favorite? That DS is a real Boobie Dazzler. And speaking of cases, stocked up on a hole plethora of liter stuff. The weather has finally started to change and with the extra day light we’ve been hankering for some lighter stuff: Surly, Mod Pod, Can O Bliss, Pilsner Urquil, Arrogant Bastard, Narwhal, WtFO, and finally able to score some Kalamazoo Stout....yum, quaffing the fresh as we speak!
Life’s been so weird lately, I’m considering putting my self in a self quarantine beer exile!
No Hockey! Shit, I haven’t had time all season, was really looking forward to the playoffs...Sabre’s suck, but the AVs were looking good, bummer!
ConeKids Vault...are you referring to Music, or beer? Bet you have a “primo” stash of both eh!
Happy Fiday folks, be safe and play Dead

All-In for Scooby-Doo Dark Star Vguy

I just geared up for a walk and put on Spectrum Specters Rebooted (aka 1973 Spectrum show Dave's Picks + my own bonus tracks snucked in); but heck if you're going with Scooby Doo House, that works for me. Change in venue coming right up. They're pretty much the same way week anyway right? May as well start with Disc 3 and get straight to the face melting stuff.

Vomit stories... Where do I even start. I think I already told the one about the Hotel balcony New Year's Eve in Montreal. That was the night it was so cold you couldn't even walk two blocks to the next bar without your face getting freezer burned. I forget what floor we were on but it was high up. Pretty sure the vomit froze before it hit the ground ( all 10 times between 4 and 9AM).

Rolling Stones Bridges to Babylon tour. I wasn't planning on going but changed my mind the day of, due to all the excitement on the radio. Usually within 24 hours of the show all the tickets sharks sell their inventory back to Ticketmaster, so there are some good seats available at face value. Ended up going by myself. Not an unusual occurrence. Concert parking lots are the easiest place to make friends. So I got there about an hour and a half early, got nice and primed (balloons were everywhere). Didn't have any weed but fortunately the guy next to me inside did. He got his ticket that day too, and was also solo, so he was more than happy to share. We split three nice size fatties, along with some other seagulls nearby. He was good to go halfway through the last one (and so was I), and he said keep it. So I put it in my pocket for later.

The show was magnificent. Our seats were great. Spent an hour in the Vet Stadium parking lot afterward, just waiting for the traffic to let out - so more Rolling Stones balloons it was. Oh and I forgot, this dude had a flask too, so I was pretty well loaded. Finally ran out of cash and got in my car to go home. There was still a line of cars trying to get out of the lot. I would say it was about 10 minutes later that I finally hit the road and ended up, I think on Packer Avenue. Traffic was stop-and-go on my way to the Walt Whitman Bridge back to Jersey.

And I started feeling queasy... so about a minute later I determined the traffic was stop-and-go because there was a cop directing traffic to the bridge. So I drove along on my way, and don't you know he holds up his hand to stop traffic beginning with me. At that point I felt vomiting was an inevitability, and the thought of handcuffs and flashing lights and a night in the tank started going through my head. Then I remembered the half a joint in my pocket and added possession to the list of bad things that were about to happen to me. The cop was no more than 20 feet from me, which is REALLY close. Eye contact close. A minute went by that lasted an eternity, but he still didn't wave me on. He kept looking at the line of cars that was stacking up behind me so that he knew when to let my line go. There was no way to lean out the door and do it. That would have been an instabust. There wad a half full Burger King cup in the drink holder. And that was it. I took the lid off and filled the cup to overflowing. When I looked up he was no longer looking in my direction; he had just put his hand up to stop the traffic that was passing in front of me. He looked me in the eye and waved me on. There is no way he wouldn't have seen me leaning into that cup had he been facing my direction at the time. Needless to say I drove home with the windows open. About halfway home I started feeling queasy again and just sparked up the other half a joint. No more queasiness. What a show. They played Crazy Mama that night. I was happy.

Alvarhanso, glad to hear you broke out Live at Leeds, on vinyl no less. Such great stuff. The Isle of Wight show from 1970 is also widely available on CD and video and vinyl too. Pretty sure they have that one on red white and blue colored vinyl.

The Scooby-Doo Dark Star IS one of the better ones Vguy - I'm well into it at this point.

Oborious, hahaha " boobie dazzler" - curse you for getting me thinking about boobies. Mrs. KeithFan can't have too many spiked Seltzer's tonight or she'll fall right asleep.

76 Box Set # 834 just arrived

Really looks great in person. They packaged this really well. I am going to listen to the first Boston concert in the set right now. Looks like they did a great job on this Boxset. Hope everybody gets theirs ASAP !

On its way, but with whom?

From the tracking info shown below, it can be seen that my order was passed to the dreaded UPS Mail Innovations and they have subsequently passed it on to the local post office for delivery, still in Fontana, CA. Bearing in mind that this is an international order that is shipping to the Netherlands, I suspect that it is now going to continue its journey with USPS and then the Dutch postal service (bless their wooden clogs), no doubt with a stopover at a Dutch customs facility where presumably taxes and duties will be levied, along with an "administrative charge" which, whilst unwelcome, is less than that charged by UPS. I may be wrong, but otherwise why would UPS hand it to the local post office.

Thanks Brown truck

Thanks Betty, ABCD Enterprises, Dave, Norman, Plangent, TPTB, Rhino, etc.

6-14 is spinning and sounds grate.

Yes, I did wipe down the outside of the box with Chlorox.

“1000 cycles ladies and gentlemen....”

Let's hear it for 1000 cycles

Always liked that comment from Phil

3 23 74

Listened to that yesterday

Nice show

Simonrob

Maybe only USPS can bring stuff into Europe at this time?

Future 5

June 10/11/14/15/19, 1976

Yes, 6-14 sounds mighty swell.

Decontamination procedure

I sprayed Chlorox bathroom cleaner on paper towels, then had paper towels in each hand, and picked up the box and wiped down the sides.

You also could wear gloves and remove the Box from the outer cardboard box. The inner Box is wrapped in plastic.

I save the shipping boxes, so I cleaned the outside.
Pretty cool how the shipping box is a single sheet of cardboard that is cut and folded to make the box.

UPS and international shipping

I received an email from UPS today regarding their operations during the current crisis. Nothing seems to have changed for customers except that they are not required to sign for packages. Mostly it was about precautions to safeguard their workers. Nothing about restrictions or cancellations of international shipments.

I think in general restrictions on international flights refer to people/passengers (and bats, naturally) rather than freight.

Re: Future 5

Right on ConeKid...I will confess, those are mine as well ha ha. Maybe I'll start with 6/11 though....hmmmm.
What spurred you to a 6/14 opener, just curious. That Slipknot! is one of the all-timers if I recall.

Good handling instructions.
I just got our mail for the first time in 2 days...that's another way to pull it off I suppose. But that was just me being lazy - ha.

Sixtus

Just Exactly Perfect

Mine arrived this morning.
Couldn't have come at a better time.
Should make this shelter-in-place a bit less stressful (though I'm not stressing much these days).

Been wanting a June 76 box for a while now, so thanks to Dave and company for making this happen. And, man oh man, the sound quality is primo.

Also, thanks to those who have checked in on me. Some days are better than others. But for now, I'm still kickin'.

Really wanted to order this

Finally got out of a long stretch of unemployment just to have my new job end up in a long term layoff with no known end in sight. Bummed. Won't be able to afford this anytime soon and will definitely be long gone before I'm back on my feet. I have the worst luck.

No doubt everybody is feeling the pinch, or soon will be. Enjoy the music if you're lucky enough to spend your quarantine time jamming out to this.

Box Set Just Arrived, quality control issues

Looking it over, I noticed minor scratches on multiple discs and the booklet seems to be missing its spine. As a Deadhead of some twenty eight years (yeah, I know, newbie), I appreciate the fact that the band/Rhino takes the time to release high quality sounding shows. But for the amount of money we lay out for releases like this, it would be nice to see better quality control. Not sure who the buck stops with here, but just wanted to put this out there.

BTW, my copy is number 544, if that helps anyone.

2/23/74

Amen, a fine show.
Currently listening to the Dicky Betts Warren Haynes version of the Allmans- Second Set and Live at The Beacon Theatre 1992-hot stuff.
Less so the Miles Davis documentary, "Birth of the Cool." I'll try not to let it put me off the music.
I am not-so far (never say never)-getting this 76 box, but am also looking forward to the reviews which will hopefully start filtering through soon.

Spacebro

I suspect that this Box will still be available when things come back around.

Seventy-Sixtus

I had all of these shows on cassette and 6-14 was my favorite, so that’s why I went with that first.

Actually paused listening because the rain stopped, the sun came out, and the temp went up to 73. Now it’s raining again, the temp is 66 and headed to 30. I opened all my windows and filled my house with warm humid air. Now back on the couch and playing 6-14 set 2.

SpaceBro

if PNW hasn't sold out yet, 76 won't sell out, either, at least for a while.

The economic impact of this...thing...is going to be gargantuan.

There's always the archive. Not the same as full-Normaned discs, but it's still there.

Skulltrip/New Box

Good to hear from you Skulltrip. Glad you got the box and will have time to enjoy that.

Love to hear more about the box!

Enjoy the box all.

Mine is still scheduled for Monday.
Train derailment or something. They won't deliver on Saturday because it is ground service, which is Monday through Friday.
I just hope it gets here before they shut the State down.

MR. ONES

Check your PM.

California has a new problem....

....people without tp are flushing other items down the pipes, clogging them. Trickle down issues.
Box is out for delivery. 👍

June 1976

Package just arrived. 5 unreleased Betty Board shows! So very thankful that the packaging for this box set is smaller than a microwave oven. PNW is pretty, but the container is almost as large as the Europe 72 suitcase with 70 + cds. Less is more as far as packaging in my opinion. Thanks for the soundtrack to the next weeks at home....

13 min Slipknot! on the 14th

Hey, it’s 4:20 as I type this

I just received my ‘76…

I just received my ‘76 boxset. Literally just opened it. Is the spine of the book supposed to just be exposed glue, or is mine just defective?

Booklet spine

It is designed to have string and glue.
At least that is my guess. That’s how books are generally bound, then a cover is put over it. This just doesn’t have a cover.

Ok Seventy-Sixtus

The 11th is on deck.
Is that your favorite, or the 10th?

Thank you Dave, Dead.net & UPS!

07925 arrived safely. Disinfected. Discs and book seem to be fine. Beautiful weather now that the sun has come here in N.Y.C.. Summer in March! With some good Ole GD!

Of course positive vibrations, thoughts and prayers going world-wide to everyone. Like Wake of the Flood; we will survive this thing.

Box 9005 in the house in Colo.

Seems like they've sold a lot if I got 9005. Sanitized and ready for the Heil AMT 4's to shake the floor. Bass bomb Phil!

SpaceBro

Check your PM, yo.

In the nick of time

#01074 showed up today. I had it shipped to work. Good thing it came today because today is the last day I’ll be able to be here for the foreseeable future. All my musical activities have been cancelled so I’ll have plenty of time for listening this weekend.

Stay well, everyone!

11397/12000 in Baltimore

Beautiful box arrived today, and it is a perfect size - a tad smaller than the July 78 box, but a similar idea.

My book also has the exposed glue and string binding... I guess I don't mind, but if it was intentional, it's kinda sloppy.

Otherwise, box looks great! I hope all the CDs are ok - I know the music is primo!

Edit: Upon further reflection, I bet the binding issue on the book is a mistake. As long as the discs play well, I won't ask for a new one over such an issue, but still...

Peace

re: On Deck

....it's the June 11th show....so goooood. That second set. I can only describe it...drippy-good.

That Sugar Mag > Eyes....oh man. The Eyes is an all-timer on this end. Just love that 2nd...
It is all enjoyable. Phil Bombs. Deeeeep Bass. Jerry's sweet tone. The mix.
I am counting the moments....UPS said by 4 PM...clock is a tickin'.

First IPA cracked in anticipation. 8.5% Wachussett Larry. Go Big or GO Home. Oh wait. I'm already home. Forever.
Hope All are enjoying as much as possible. This site is truly a ray of sunshine amidst cloudy weather and a wonderful place to go for a happy diversion.

Seventy-Sixtus

Wasn't suppose to arrive until Monday

Checked this morning and it was out for delivery for today!!! Just got it!!! Be safe everyone. bob t

2015 in Plano

LL Rain on 6/10 sounds very nice. Package very nice like always.

New Box for quarantine

I hope you all get your’s soon. I have seen UPS deliver on my street on Saturday before, so fingers crossed for those still in waiting, you shouldn’t have to wait until Monday.

Sixtus, this Big River from the 11th is cooking along. Who says 76 is slow? If this was any faster they would be complaining that it was an ‘82 cocaine-fueled rendition.

No box

I had my 76 box sent to my work and today was the last day they would be open. It was scheduled to deliver today and went out for delivery at 7:30am. At noon the status changed to Held m. It said due to a health crisis my delivery would be rescheduled. Now at 5pm they just updated my package as return to sender in Carlsbad, CA. I really was looking forward to listening this while locked down on quarantine. I have no idea what will happen now. If they will resend it or contact me. Man in super bummed.

Poshy

Edit:
Call the 1-800 number right now.

Is anyone else having…

Is anyone else having trouble loading this set on to Apple Music? It seems to be ignoring whole disks in each show. Any thoughts, help?

Thanks

They took down the 1-800 due to too many calls. I have an account with the UPS site but they never attempted delivery so it won’t allow me to change the address or schedule a pick up.

Mission in the Rain

So good!!!!!!

76 box

I just received my box. I won't open it until I get home. "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND".

Poshy

I think that UPS My Choice will let you have it held at a local facility.

00384

Lowest number set I have ever received. For some reason they delivered it to my house even tho it has my PO Box on the label. In this case, it saved a trip, but normally, I use a PO Box so I don't have a box sitting out side to temp the passersby. I use dbpower amp to rip 24 bit and it was flawless. I started at the end, June 19th - Help on the way >>> as show opener must have been magical.

Carlo

I went from bottles to kegs after a few years, and now that I brew 1.75 gal. batches, I've returned to bottling. You want Cornelius kegs, preferably with ball (not pin) fittings. There are some 3-gal. Cornie kegs floating around, and even some 1-gal. kegs that fit well in a regular fridge. I've also had luck putting the beer in growlers with carefully-measured priming sugar (and slightly less (~30% less)) than normal, and then carbonating just like in bottles. If you want to spring for a tank of nitrogen (besides the tank of CO2 you'll normally use), then you can even have a keg that dispenses with that gas.

I do enjoy XTC, especially Skylarking.

I think my box is coming via the USPS, but I saw the carrier come and go at the curbside box, and he didn't shove any packages in. :(

Brewer

Thank you. I'm going to go with the Cornelius 3 gal. And just buy a keg fridge with the post and faucet set up. Thanks for the intro suggestion. I think I will go all the way since I can now afford it. Also thanks for the ball instead of the pin suggestion. There is nothing to good for my beer. P.S.-thanks jim for the beer help too.

Kegs

Less than two gallons doesn't work well for kegs. I actually don't brew much anymore, but when I do it's all grain (no syrups), liquid yeast and as fresh hops as I can get. My house batch is a 50 lb sack of grain (why, because it's cheaper and better) which roughly yields 30 gallons of beer. I give most of it away, which can at times give me mayor status in the tiny little hippie town I live in.

So 1 sack of grain, fresh hops, yeast and water and I get either 3 5-gal kegs for a half batch or 6 5-gal kegs for a full batch. I find if you are doing all grain, it matters little whether you brew 2 gallons or 30 as far as time, and it's much cheaper and higher quality to buy materials in bulk.. so there you have my calculus. Same time input, cheaper and free beer for my friends and river rats.

If I never sanitize another bottle in my life.. than I will have lived a good life (ooops, bad timing on that comment). Seriously.. if you are going to go, go big and all grain is the way to go.

No box for me, no box for me.. god only knows where my box be...

P.S. I have a few extra 5 gal kegs for free now that I don't brew so much anymore. free, of course. If I do a batch every three of five years, that's a lot. Then again, like most reading these posts.. we might just have more free time quite soon and the price per pint if you make your own, is a fraction of buying it from the store. (and better tasting, better for you and did I mention cheaper?).

Free lessons but only if you dare the rapids that are just upstream....

Re: Booklet spine

>>>>>>>>>>
It is designed to have string and glue.
At least that is my guess. That’s how books are generally bound, then a cover is put over it. This just doesn’t have a cover.

Just opened my box (#2126) and had the same booklet spine issue as others have reported. I believe this is indeed by design. I re-watched the unboxing video in full screen mode on my PC and right at the 1:56 mark when the book is flipped over from front to back I was able to stop playback and see that the spine on the book in the unboxing video looked to be just like what I had received (string & glue).

Really Nice Box

Just got this box and it looks awesome, really nice box. Almost exactly the same size as the first May '77 box. Lots of detail in the art on the box, pleasing colors and a nice touch with the unusual way the box opens from the side. Packaging for the individual shows is essentially the same as the first May '77 box and the July '78 box, again, nice colors on the packaging for the individual shows, and more detailed art on each one. A nice bright spot in an otherwise lackluster day. Looking forward to diving in for a first listen.
