    VGuy - About an hour to go now. You’re getting in the Zone. A little music, perhaps, while your thoughts percolate. You have shooed the little lady and the family out of the viewing area. Your Knights are here, the third round (some say the toughest round), and the only thing keeping them from the Run For The Roses - the FINAL - is the Habs, a team the Orcs would be if they could skate. Only the Habs (and their remarkable goalie Carey Price) are keeping you and the Golden Knights from vanquishing “the rest”, before getting to the Final. The Big One. The Stanley Cup.

    You got this.

    a low chant and slow clap going for that fall '72 box?

    They've got plenty of good fall '72 tapes in the vault. Of course, the 2021 box is already being mixed and mastered and artwork proceeding furiously, while Dave keeps an admirably tight lid on the contents.

    The only other era I can see getting the treatment is spring '69; plenty of available tapes (presumably, arrgghhh) for that era as well.

    That is all.

    I listened to the board of 6/13 last night and I really forgot how great a show it was. Now it was always a favorite of mine but the board tape second set really shines.

    Jim I cant remember which day/night was so cold. I think it may have been friday because I was like we are in Southern California in June on the beach how can it be this cold. Of course, it really wasn't cold, it was the wind. I think highs all weekend were in the low to mid 70's but the dang wind was 25-30 miles an hour both Friday and Saturday. What the wind did was mess up a lot of tapes. Even on the first set board you can hear an up and down swishing noise. That is the wind blowing so hard, that even with their mouths directly on the microphones, the wind still played with their voice. And out front, it added to the psychedelic frenzy. One reviewer over at Archive says the tapes are not good enough for release, and it is primarily due to the wind. Now the second set where less singing and more jamming goodness happens, you do not hear that swirling noise because the wind only impacted the drums (mics) at that point. I had a blast last night reliving that day.

    During Shakedown, we were taping FOB to the right of Healy. Always wanted to abide by the rules of not interfering with his line of sight. There were 4 of us in a circle. Shakedown pumpin, 2 joints and 2 pipes, all with different strands of weed. Hit, pass, hit, pass. All of a sudden slinking thru the crowd comes a real old hippie. I mean this guy was in his 70's (no offense to those that are 70). He was slinking to Shakedown and swimming thru the crowd when he spots our circle. He just jumps right in. He was smoking one of those huge (extra large) Sherlock Holmes (??) type of pipes. We all just hung there in space and time, hit, pass, hit pass. He had on a white t-shirt with I heart drugs on the front. I had on an all black taper shirt, so on the front left chest area was a reel to reel with mic stands. On the back was a big eagle wings again with the tape deck and mic stands, at the center. Written over the top was "Death before Dishonour" and below was "Drugs before Lunch." We never spoke a word, he just danced his way on out of the circle with a wink and a nod. We were in our early 20's and so it was kind of like a passing the torch moment.

    Jim, I remember us writing about Ventura several years back as we both did the Ventura-Greek-Alpine trifecta. Talking about get back home and patch my bones, it was needed. Seems I remember a story about you having your favorite hippy car breaking down on that journey. I don't know how you did it. We spent 2 weeks in California that trip. Flew in to LAX, as Strider ( I think said), the Monday before the Friday Ventura show. Hung out in LA, then went to Ventura (actually stayed in Santa Barbara) before heading to the bay area for the Greek shows. After those shows we drove back to LA to fly back home. Stayed home 2 days before driving to Alpine Valley.

    This was a very fruitful run as we (I) made friends with 5 tapers from San Diego, New York, Pittsburgh. We also made some other contacts that help us fund our fun times. Plane tickets hotels food tapes etc. You know, little shipping powders back and forth thing.

    Speaking of passing out. There was a guy from the Navy there for his first Dead show. He was hammered as we were setting up the taping equipment. He ended up passing out just a few minutes before they hit the stage. Ends up throwing up, and then sleeping rolling around in a vomit/sand concaction for the whole show. Dead finish, we are packing up equipment, he comes to, pops up, and a couple of buddies find him and were asking him where he had been. We didn't tell them he was a pig in slop the whole day. However, they could tell by his clothes and his funk.

    Nappy, I think it was your post about a bridge and one side cool and other side, not so much. I am having a hard time remembering that. We parked Friday and Sunday in the lot. And if I remember street parked a couple of blocks away on Saturday. Saturday is when we left after the show for a while and some drunk teenagers were walking in front of us. Horsing around but kept getting in our way. My brother is a pretty big guy. One of them pushed a friend into my brother. His sunglasses came off and went right under my brothers feet. Crunch. They were so young they just let it be and got out of our way.

    Any way more on Ventura, next time we run this ground again.

    Got to post this first as it was longer than expected, will come back and edit in a few...

    OK did a little editing...

    As all shows there is still a lot more to write.

    Grateful Dead, Ventura & Alcohol...

    I think maybe the second time there were Ventura shows we witnessed a perfect example of alcohol not going well with outdoor all day shenanigans...in line waiting for the gates to open we noticed one group of youngsters (we were already all in our mid 30's or so by then) getting pretty schonkered and especially one guy in particular who was already swaying to and fro...gates open, we go in and settle into are usual dead center 20 ft in front of the board location...running over to the restrooms for my pre-gig pee i saw a couple of the guys we had seen partying coming out of the head saying stuff to the effect "serves him right, screw him we told him..." etc...I went in and there was a small utility closet to the left of the entrance that had the door open and their friend was laying on the concrete passed out cold...during the show my friends and I would go to use the facility and everytime he was still there passed out but as the day went on he was covered little by little in garbage, by the end of the show he was totally covered with only a bit of his face showing...I saw one of his buds and he told me they had to go check on him from time to time to make sure he was ok and that the trash was the penalty for ruining the show for them...you crash, you burn as we always used to say...

Kind of surprised to see all the hockey talk around here, when the REAL sports story right now is the amazing SF GIANTS, who despite being projected for yet another losing season, have the best record in the National League! Woohoo!

In the Bay Area, love for the Giants AND the Dead can be almost hereditary, and the Giants are well aware of the cross over. They have been hosting a Grateful Dead Night for decades, and also a Jerry Garcia tribute night, with appearances by band members, special seating sections, various swag. (I’ve got a cool t-shirt with an orange and black SYF on it.) Band members often sing the national anthem for those games.

If anybody ever did a ranking of various Star Spangled Banners by the Dead, like some people have done with Dark Stars and whatnot, I think this version would rank pretty high. Listen to the crowd response at the end!

Thanks Crow for reminding me of that absolutely patriotic moment! First heard it on the David Gans GD hour very near the date of its performance which was the Dead's first. In an attached interview on the GD Hour when asked why it took them so long to be asked to do it Bobby smarts off saying, " Because they knew it would take us a long time to learn it". Jerry takes the more thoughtful approach saying, "We are like bad architecture and old whores. After you've been around long enough you get some respect". Priceless! Vince really nails it and his harmonies get the applause especially on the high note. In another part of the interview Jerry is asked if he is a big Giants fan and again Bob jumps in with the dig, "Well he's not the smallest Giants fan." And again Jerry gives the more thoughtful reply, "Yeah, thanks (asshole). I guess we are like everybody; when they're doing well we start watching them. But I'm a San Francisco fan and they are our team."
How many National Anthems have they done?
P.S. It was not only the Dead's first time but it was opening day and the first female ballpark announcer in the history of baseball was also on her first day. Very historic indeed!

So the Grateful Dead Movie premiered today on June 1,1977. Anyone around here old enough to remember seeing it that summer. I went from Baltimore to DC to see it as the DC theater had an enhanced sound system especially for the movie. The opening animation was spectacular for its time (I actually still think it holds up quite well). The movie is a great tribute to the band and the audience (us deadheads). Captures the Dead concert experience quite well. If I didn't have every scene and line practically memorized I'd watch it again tonight in honor of the premiere. Oh, heck, why not one more time.

Thanks man. Just typical of this team. Like Jerry said about the Dead when it came to playing the “big” shows like Woodstock, they didn’t bring their A game. Must be the drinking water from Lake Ontario, has the same effect on the Buffalo Sabres, not to mention the “clutch kids”, the Bills.

I’m with you - anyone but Boston. Not to jinx, but the AVs are a pretty dynamic team, all down the lineup, so unless they do a Leaf, the Cup is theirs to lose. Vegas should come back swinging after the debacle the other night. But good luck to the AVs.

1st for those too you to remember, in the 70's Miller beer brought out a 7oz bottle of Miller called ...you guessed it ponies. If my memory isn't totally gone there were 36 in a case. The idea was they wouldn't get warm at the beach
Where am I going with this? I received the Dave's glass today ( after they told me it was canceled). It's rather small. I like it but I'd like it better if it fit the beer I make

I got my drink on and finally had a shot to listen front to back without interruption. Zowie! I have never heard Bob Weir sound this good before. The audio is ok to me. I understand some people didn't care for it but I don't hear any issues other than the piano being too low. I should say steady issues. There are some spots where the audio drops but that is normal for these old recordings is what I have found.

As good as Bob Weir sounds, Jerry Garcia is playing some excellent stuff too. He always sounded good back then but there are some shows where he plays a little more frequently in a song. Me and My Uncle for example. He plays so many notes. Or Tennessee Jed. He plays an excellent guitar solo. Big River is as good as I have ever heard it. I would take a whole box set of these!

I think what they are saying in the back and forth below is the box set announcement will come today at 4:00 PM EST. The 2021 box set will consist of the June 1973 RFK both the ABB and the Grateful Dead, every note and the Watkins Glen 1973, the complete recordings.

I think I will try my hand a reply.... again in German.

Yo rockers!!!

Atlanta. Chaos at the start. Bad vibes............

However, somebody who was there told me that once the radicals were calmed, that the music was good.......

Listening almost 50 years later, while the show has its moments, it pales in comparison to most other shows from November of 1971.

Just one man's opinion.

Hafta run to the morgue and start working..............

Rock on!

That was a pretty vicious hit by Scheifele, definitely dangerous, and from the book of a Marchand or Kadri, but rooting for ….the Habs!?
Say it ain’t so, Jack!!

My money is on the AVs - these guys are like a steamroller. Pretty damn hard to stop them.

I don’t know, the Knights did a pretty good job of slowing em down last night.
Unfortunately perhaps a few “non playoff” penalty’s in the mix, fug dat, let em play..

I don’t mind the Habs, I just like seeing other teams make it, but they sure look good right now.
Don’t think anyone saw that coming.

That hit was brutal, I still hurt!
It’s another one you have to see in real time as slo mo makes it seem worse.
Not justifying it, but if you see how fast they all were going you can maybe understand it?
I mean he was trying to stop a goal, BUT, like Enzo or somebody said, he never tried for the puck, just steamrolled the poor bastard. To me that’s the smoking gun. He wasn’t thinking about the puck.
Hope Evans is ok, cause he literally got run over!

It always seems to me to upset the balance of things a bit, announcing two Dave's Picks - and the bonus disc trick- at around the same time, in order to attract subscriptions. There then seems to be months and months with no decent announcements at all.

Too funny!
Let’s hope not!

Now I’m losing my mind (what’s left of it), but I coulda swore that Dave said on one of this years videos, perhaps the last one, that there were going to be 3 more releases besides DaP.
Maybe it was for the S&R chat, so I don’t think that one counts, and no it’s not the AB bonus show, this was after all that...
I also seem to recall they used to do more releases for the holidaze, which would make sense from a marketing position. Remember a few years I had already used up my allotment with Santa, them all of a sudden these guys would drop something that I just had to have, which of course pissed Santa off cause now we’re over budget!

If I was in charge, we’d get 1 big (ger) box, 1 smaller i.e. RFK, 5 or 6 Dave’s a year, plus....?
Hell, if I were in charge I’d be spitting out as much of the vault as they can lol.

EDIT: it seems like maybe, finally, they rectified the shipping issues as I don’t recall seeing here too many problems this time, of course that’s DaP, ahem, not glassware etc...

VGuy - That’s awesome you are going to the game Sunday - you’ll see a great one. However, you mention about “ They need some vguy luck”, and then I see your current avatar….
Just saying.

Recommendation:
No - Strong Recommendation: While we await a box set announcement, for those that enjoy their jazz sans horns, the new Dave Holland “Another Land” is amazing! Great guitar by Kevin Eubanks (who used to be in one of the tv talk show house bands), and Holland is incredible, as always.

Anyone else notice how few, if any, delivery problems were reported here for DaP’s 38?

I suspect they’ve quietly addressed the issues that were widely discussed/shared for previous releases. Yes, wishful thinking is involved here.

Gives me confidence that a box set or two could be successfully announced/delivered this year.

My guess is that Rhino has been dealing with the same supplier/distribution issues that many companies are still facing.

Gotta believe Rhino is just as anxious to increase income as any other company during these strange times.

I think we’ll be hearing from Dave soon.

Gainsville - I haven't heard that shout out in a looong time.... Gainsville indeed!

And I'm glad that the shipping issues seem to have abated following the DaP37 fiasco. Perhaps they did opt for a different vendor or fulfillment provider. But very strange no box set announcement yet.
