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.

With all due respect, can I get ....

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.

alcohol

I learned early on that alcohol is not my friend

alcohol + GD show for me: doesnotcomputedoesnotcomputedoesnotcompute

I have never passed out or vomited while green
I have never passed out or vomited while lysergic

I have never passed out, but got darn near close, with alcohol
I have VOMITED (oh yes, oh yes) with alcohol

Just saying: alcohol and I do not get along.

Ventura Again

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...

Scored Billy Strings tix for Vegas Sept 4th....

Last names & Seattle

Proudfoot - I was only goofing on my last name. It’s actually only 5 letters, of Irish derivation, but amazing how often it gets misspelled or mispronounced, so I went with Dave Watson, because I knew he’d like the autograph, and it’s an easy name to spell.

Burnsy - Glad to hear you are getting pumped for the Kraken! I’m trying to get Proudfoot hooked on Kraken, too! You are very right about the Seattle Metropolitans winning the Stanley Cup, but I didn’t know about the Spanish Flu putting an end to them, that’s really interesting,. Also kind of weird how we are 100 years later, battling the Kung Flu, and here Seattle hockey rises from the ashes… (cue: music)

Mr Ones: You sold me on The Third Mind, too! I had purchased stuff from their company before - Yep Rock - so I’ll likely order from them, or Bezos if I have other stuff to get. Played them on YouTube (loved the Fred Neil tune), and you weren’t kidding - really spacey stuff, but great jams that go places, not just meander. Thanks for the recommend!

That Mike/Humble Celebs

Mike, that's actually not me on Amazon recommending The Third Mind. I got my copy from the local record emporium. And for the record, I am a Capitals fan, so I have 47 years of sucking/choking/repeated disappointments Etc.(plus one Cup!!)
I was in the music selling business for 22 years, mostly retail, but also mail order and wholesale. I got to meet dozens of musicians, most of whom were truly nice and down to earth. The absolute most humble and easiest to talk to were Steve Miller, Al Green, Alice Cooper and Peter Gabriel.
The biggest dick(and if you read his book, you'll understand) was John Fogerty. I truly love his music, but he was the whole ass.

Fogerty

Mr Ones - That’s cool you got to meet all those musicians, and even better that they were good dudes. I’m not surprised about what you say about John Fogerty - I read his book, and thought this guy has a major ego issue, then I saw him on a solo tour, and he is laying into Jerry and the Dead like they were a bunch of out of it weirdos, which I thought at the time really blew. Who gets on stage and does that!? A-hole.

As for the Caps, I went to see them the play their first season, 1975(?) when they won like 12 games or something, so bad they made the Leafs look like giants. The upside? They are way better now, and always in the mix. Just a bit of a choke come playoffs, but a hard team to take down.

A quick sour note on fogerty

At The R'nR HOF Dinner for CCR's induction, Fogerty told the Foudation he wouldn't accept the award or perform if other band members were involved, which of course included HIS OWN BROTHER!!! They had to sit like idiots in the crowd as he went and accepted and then did a medley of CCR with other musicians, Springsteen included...Screw him, Screw the Foundation for caving in...and screw Springsteen and all the othe musicians who helped this slimeball behavior...And so Stu Cook and Doug Clifford had to sit there and eat it in front of the industry...

Oops ...edit job...Stu & Doug did go onstage for the award but were not allowed onstage for the Musical performance...Tom had passed away a couple of years earlier and the Brothers were on bad terms when he passed...

I might've mentioned this before...

But this Saturday the 21st being Record Store Day I see listed Paris 5/03/72 Olympia Theatre being offered as a six LP box...
https://recordstoreday.com/SpecialRelease/13626

Washington Capitals....

....beat Vegas in the Stanley Cup finals in 2018. I'm not too mad, because Ovechkin deserves a cup. Just wish they didn't put Tom Wilson's name on it. Guys a POS.

And speaking of RSD 2021

The killer three LP trilogy, "Chicago: The Blues, Today!" will be released also this coming Saturday...a mid 60's release on Vanguard that was da chit for us kiddos hankering for da blues!!!

https://recordstoreday.com/SpecialRelease/13659

too bad about JF

I love CCR.

but to treat people like that...laaaame.

Chicago Blues Today/ Nappy

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=e2qgTkeNPuw. Killer l.p. Nappy, knockout version of Rocket 88 with James Cotton. I met him over in Santa Cruz one time at The Catalyst, he was super cool , reall nice guy, one of my favorite harp players.

And now for something completely different . . .

Grateful Dead chatter! (instead of hockey talk) :)

The past four months I made my first "serious" foray through the two Spring '90 boxes. I had dabbled before, but had never done the complete shows in order. I gave myself tons of time, knowing that there was no way I could do the tour on its anniversary dates. I heard some playing that really excited me, but was surprised at how much of the best material had been released before the boxes came out. March 15th and 24th were already out there, as was the Scarlet-->Fire from 3/22, as well as the most interesting songs from the 25th and 26th. And the Branford material had been available in high-quality bootleg formats forever.

What I'll likely do is make some compilations (gasp!) of the best of the rest, as I cannot imagine that I'll listen to every moment of that tour again. The first show (3/14) is a burner, and will be cranked in totality again, but I'll probably make some "shows" culled from many shows' highlights.

And I'm officially done with "Victim". I'm hitting 'Skip' on that one for the rest of my listening years . . . :-O

Dead Day RFK 6/10/73

Listening to this one today for the anniversary. Pretty good soundboard. I've never listened to the whole thing, only the Dark Star and Bird Song. I've decided I can't wait any longer for them to release this. I usually try to wait for the big shows to be officially released so that I can hear them for the first time with the "Full Norman" treatment.

I'm officially (finally) annoyed with the website. I decided what the heck, I'll submit my story of when I got on the bus for that Deadcast promotion they have going. It says you can write up to 250 words, but it stops letting you type in the box after 250 letters. The irony is that I considered submitting my story a couple of times and said nah, don't feel like it. So I finally gave it the thumbs up and typed 250 of the most interesting letters I could think of, and then kablam - no more typing allowed in the box.

Vguy good export / import joke - almost as good as the ahem...two religious leaders who get pulled over by the police.

Jimbo - you're 6'4"? That's some height I wish I had. I just figured everyone here was 5'9" like me.

Sixtus - happy birthday dude. You love June '76! Just wait until tomorrow's 6/11 show, which I assume is your favorite in the box.

gotta hear 6/10/73 again soon

this summer

if they announce it as the next Daves (hahahahahahahahaha), I will wait. Otherwise...

years ago I listened to it lysergically on a cassette walkman walking around Seattle's Green Lake.

WOWOWOWOWOWOW. That was a special time.

Keithfan/ Sixtus....

....I am also 6'4". Not always the greatest though. Was running late for work the other day and didn't pay attention to my garage door opening. Needless to say, there was some blood.
And you remember that joke? That was a long time ago. Good memory!!
Happy Birthday Sixtus! Another trip around the sun completed. Tequila shots all around!!!

RFK 6-10-73

Yep, anniversary of one of my favorite shows of all time. Had to listen again to this today and hoping someday somehow this will be released (sigh...). WE need a miracle everyday.

Alright guys and gals....

....it's almost that time. See y'all on the flipside. 🤞

.

Happy, happy, joy, joy to Sixtus, a Bday and 45 year favs anniversaries to boot!

6’4”, that’s pretty tall! I used to be 6’2” but now I’m closer to 6’....only good thing about being tall was on the floor at GA Dead shows etc!

FAMOUS FOLKS: have met several, have worked in several of their houses (never meet them only their peeps), off the top of what’s left of my head, I’d have to say Rick Danko was always a ridiculously nice guy! Had the pleasure to work with them in the mid nineties and he was always super nice and friendly!
Generally, I’ve found that celebs just like being treated like regular folk, their just people like the rest of you, of course I’m a dog, WOOF!

Go Isles! Sorry to our Mass brethren, just goofing round trying to have fun, no offense meant, though I still hate the Pats and Bs, always dug the Celts and Red Sox though... ; )

I can’t believe the AVS blew that game Tuesday. Now the Knights certainly played hard, and capitalized on opportunities, and they deserved to win, but the AVS coulda, shoulda won that game. Oh well, as Chris Bermen used to say “that’s why they play the game”...think it’s over now...don’t see the AVs going into the fortress and winning, the knights seem more juiced and the force there is just too strong! They needed to take care of business at home...at least it’s been an awesome series so far and the refs haven’t muffed it too much. Well good luck Vguy, it should be another beauty eh!

Sorry to the non-hockey folks, it’ll be over fairly soon and it’s been a tradition here for years.

1st intermission check-in....

....the fortress is loud AF.
Sorry, not sorry. As oroborous said, this hockey talk will be over in a month.
In the meantime, maybe we can recruit some new hockey fans!
And no. I'm not there. Tix get more expensive as the series go on.

2nd Intermission check-in....

....no words.

It's a final!!!....

....the Vegas Golden Knights are moving on!! So is my blood pressure!! Twas a beauty.
Time to study the Habs. BRB

Golden Knights vs Carey Price

Let’s get the battle started!

VGuy - Your guys did great - a come from behind series against a really skilled team! Impressive.

Dooaahh!

A triple deflection?....the gods have spoken!
Congrats VGUY!
Habs Knights? Could be interesting.
If the knights can sustain the energy, they’ll be tuff to beat.

Viva Lost Wages Baby!

Wait a Minute

What exactly does a triple deflection exactly mean. Do we have three more spies (web builders) then we did yesterday? Is Hockey code for deflections from Russia, through Canada to eventually write shitty code and muck up our website? (edit: Oh, not a triple defection, triple deflection.. nevermind)

Actually I saw that play. It was exactly then that I realized I am doing the wrong drugs to even watch this sport. It's better suited for younger, coke or meth addicted fans. I was watching that play, by god.. and I completely missed the goal. It was only when they slowed down the replay that I was able to see what happened. And in all honesty.. It wasn't until the third replay, played.. eeexxxtrrraaaa sslllss.lllow that I saw what actually happened. Where I come from we call that blind luck aka dumb luck. I guess that's part of the sport. But hey, I hear they plan a lot of GD during games during intermissions. That's good enough for me.

Seriously.. great game, great triple deflection. Congrats VGuy.

6/11/69. California Hall

I hope that Owsle y has a copy of this tape, because I would love to hear it, and hopefully it will be released one day. Owsley was taping all the Dead & NRPS shows at the time, so I dont see why he wouldn't have taped this show. Bears Sonic Journals say they have Dead tapes, so I would like to think that this is one of them.

Triple Scoop Sundae

I'm with you jim,,,, I could care a rat's ass about any sport, but hockey WAY to fast. I just watched that play and yeah at normal speed looked like blind luck to me. Slowmo,,,,, still blind luck :-)

FYI - I don't care if people banter about the hockey games (to a point :-) ), nothing wrong with a flowing conversation among friends about common interest. Yeah Habs???

Back to Dylan.

Sorry for the repeat

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KlSXNmHW_8

Sorry for the repeat, but I really, really love this cut. I think I have it set to start at 37 minutes. But start at about 37 minutes for a tune called Nancy Whiskey. Love the tone of this one. I have Joni doing it, meh?!?!

This is the best version I've found over night and I never heard of this song.

Sorry for the repeat.

Musings

Congrats VGuy for what sounds like an otherworldly comeback win in the series for your team. Who knew ICE in Vegas could produce ANYTHING other than liquid???

Thanks also peeps for the Nameday shoutouts and mental projections this way!

Currently spinning 6/11/76 as we all should be, today.

Be Well People!
70-Sixtus

Vguy

Well done and congratulations. Down 0-2 in games and down in the third period of game three against the mighty Avs. Very impressive.

Before the playoffs started, I pledged my allegiance to Canadaland. However, as these events have unfolded, I cannot in good conscience go against your GKs.

As promised, attached is a picture of mom with Alex Tuch. She is (or was) roughly 5'6". He's a big dude.

Sir James. Hockey is a fast sport. Very fast. And the goalies are better than you think. It's not like soccer where the goals are 50 feet wide. It's tough to get the puck past them. That's why you are taught at a very early age to deflect the puck. Your chances of scoring are much better when the shot changes direction. Even more so when it changes three times.

These guys kept me out too late last night

Totally worth it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u4dW9A29SE

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em . . .

I hope my comment about hockey talk didn't ruffle anyone's feathers; I used a smiley face after my comment to indicate the light-heartedness of my intention! :)

Since it IS playoff time, and since I DO live in The State of Hockey, I'll try . . .

Boy, that new kid for the Wild is pretty good, eh?

No feathers ruffled here....

....triple deflections are TIGHT!
Tuch is a beast!

Congrats Vguy

I don't have a horse in this race but your team seems to be bringing you much joy, congrats.

KF you are right it was Dave's Picks 7. I guess I need a title system like you. What do call the others?

Sixtus happy nameday. Thanks for the June 1976 reminder. I haven't given that one a listen since it came out.

What will be the three releases........

I wonder what the 3 releases will be that Dave talked about? Obviously, one will be the box set, if the box set is tied to MUATM, it will probably be an 89, 90, or 91 box with a dvd, or hopefully an Oct 74 box with videos. The other two released, will probably be Bears Choice 50th and Wake of the Flood 50th. I just hope they release full shows for both these releases, a full 1970 & a full 1973 show for both releases.

Three Releases

I think we have to count the 50th of Skullfuck too.. so that plus Dave's Picks and the new box... Wonder what it's going to be???

Three releases...

I agree that Skullfuck 50th is one of the three releases and the box that we all assume is coming is another of the three. I doubt that Dave's Picks counts so the third could well be a stand alone single show release. That could be 3 CDs and a DVD/BR video. Whatever, bring 'em on! Ark ark.

while we talk about tee's

I agree, most vendors have cut back on the quality of the shirt...if someone advertises their probuct as "soft" you can bet it's a paper thin product...here's a vendor I've gotten a few shirts from over the past couple of years and they are all excellent heavy duty cotton...they have a rotating weekly offer page as well as a regular stock selection...I've gotten an Atco 45 label of "Crossroads" by Cream tee, an "East West" LP cover by Butterfield tee and a couple of Zappa and Jimi tees as well...good stuff from the UK

Box

Me thinks box set announcement will come in July and ship September/October. Dave’s subscription typically goes on early bird sale in October/November. It would be impolite to announce the box at the same time.

Sheeesh, for the 15th time!

Nobody listens to me...

He specifically says besides this (S&R 50th) and outside of DaP, there will be 3 more releases

Check the video at 11:41

Hopefully the Garden stuff wasn’t one?

6/11/76

Good suggestion. Been doing highlights of the box. Presently listening to 6/11/76 Eyes Of suggestion. Audio on these shows is top notch. The 6/10 Cassidy has some kick-ass drums in there somewhere, I forget which part.

Yeah Vguy, glad to hear the Knights are progressing. It gets harder to watch the longer they're in....

Man I hope the box set is in my wheelhouse.

Oroborous has spoken

bring on the releases, Dave.

Dave?

DAVE?

wtf Dave?

Dave?

PF, LOL

Actually Dave spoke, I just listened ; )

EDIT: “Aaaa, Dave’s not here man”

Behind behind always playing ketsup

Hope all are well. Always reading in chunks and really comment much. Question: How many use talk to text versus my old as typing on an IBM Selectric?

Oroborous

hope all is well, to answer quickly from 2 months back.

Yeah at Buckeye Lake I do actually think I remember you. I only remember a few tapers in front or on side in front of board, but 2 of them being me and then another friend several feet to the left.

Question: I few years ago I posted about to the name, and the person said there are 2 Oro's. Was that true at all or just one. It would be two if, you didnt post about making a ceramic oroborous and then giving that to Jerry when you met him at a restaurant near a show somewhere?

Was that you?
A psychedelic dream?
Speaking of which I recently dreamed I was sitting around talking to Gene Simmons about health insurance. It was a blurred but fiesty debate...

A week or two back someone posted about your dog eating its tail...obviously the name. Have not gone back to see actual post today. To me, it looks like the dog from "A Dog's Purpose." Cant remember the name though.

Bulder CO 6-08-80 Anyone?

The other day I DL'ed an AUD of Folsom Field '80...nowadays I don't often grab AUD's unless it was something I was at...I wasn't at this show but what grabbed me was the 1st Set opener, an Uncle John's Band > Playin' In The Band >
Uncle John's Band sandwich that goes for 20 minutes...tasty start...And sometimes I just enjoy hearing a great AUD on my headphones, especially Ventura shows where I can hear the breeze and smell the ocean...
