"When it came to 1973 Dead, I was always drawn to the big second-set jams, 'Dark Star' or 'The Other One,' and all of the places those songs could go that year. One week during my initial stint with the Dead, Dick was spending a lot of time listening to 9/8/73, and he could not stop raving about it. He was very intent on pointing out that despite the absence of the 'Big Two' from 1973, every song, every solo, every moment was out-of-this-world excellent. He played me the first set, giving a play-by-play of each song and what made it special. In those listening sessions, Dick taught me a lot about how to listen critically and objectively. Of course, the subjective self always creeps in, those moments when you whoop and holler at how good a performance is, but that objective listening is critical. After many days of listening, Dick moved to other eras, as was his wont, since he carried the responsibility of selecting the best Dead shows from all eras to represent the Dead’s recorded legacy. But he made it clear and inarguable that he felt 9/8/73 was one of the best-played shows from one of the Dead’s best years." - David Lemieux

Despite the gloriously blustering artwork above, the forecast for DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 38: NASSAU VETERANS MEMORIAL COLISEUM, UNIONDALE, NY, 9/8/73 is blazing hot! With a double endorsement from archivists Dick Latvala and David Lemieux, you know it's a MUST HAVE. This one's got inspired playing from start to finish, with soon-to-be-minted Wake Of The Flood classics, a first-ever "Weather Report Suite," Keith polishing his chops on "Let Me Sing Your Blues Away," Jerry tapping into era-defining sound with his Wolf guitar, and we'd be remiss if we didn't mention Bob's exquisite playing too.

Among our 2021 Dave's Picks subscribers? The subscribers-only bonus disc featuring nearly an hour and a half from 9/7/73 is coming your way too. (P.S. there's 35 minutes of 9/7/73 on Dave's Picks Vol. 38, to boot)

Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 38: NASSAU VETERANS MEMORIAL COLISEUM, UNIONDALE, NY, 9/8/73 was recorded by Kidd Candelaro and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

Sound Issues / DaP 38

There is really only one solution. It's a bit complicated.. so hang in there with me. This is what we all need to do.

1) Get out the credit card with the greatest limit.
2) Google, select and purchase the new Wall of Sound, Home Edition TM (C) R with this credit card. As soon as the purchase is made destroy this card.
3) DO NOT TELL your partner/significant other.
4) Go to the roughest bar in town and tell some raunchy mom jokes to the bouncer. Keep doing this until he pummels you.
5) Come home and tell your partner / significant other you were mugged and robbed. Tell them all they took was your credit card.
6) If your partner is suspicious file a police report.
7) Install the WOS Home Edition in your listening room while your partner is not home. If complaints arise later, amnesia from the head trauma is your response. "honey, I am having trouble remembering anything from that week.
8) Replay Dave's Picks 38 at high volume.

Your sound issues are now resolved. Happy listening.

The levels are too high

I mentioned that a while ago, after others had already detected it with headphones.

I played the CDs twice on my stereo system are did not detect any sound issues.
Onkyo 6-disc CD changer
Cambridge Audio receiver
Onkyo subwoofer
Bose 301 speakers

I then imported to computer and made ALAC files for my music players and AAC files to play from a USB flash drive in the car.
When I played the imported AIFF files on the computer there was extensive distortion through the small external computer speakers.
The colored bars that show the sound levels (not volume) on the computer audio software were almost hitting red. Clearly too high, but don’t know if that is on the original recording or the result of mastering.
Recall that on 8-25-72 Norman boosted Phil’s bass beyond what was on the original recording.
Maybe he boosted the levels for this release.

I played the ALAC files with an iBasso DX120 music player connected to my Cambridge Audio receiver. Did not detect any distortion or other sound flaws.
Been playing the AAC files in the car this week and have not heard any issues so far (set 2 started just before getting to work today).

So, it definitely depends on your system whether you hear the issues.
Crappy computer speakers sound terrible.
Apparently a high end system like Oro’s reveals the sound problems too.
My midrange system sounds good as does the audio system in my car.

sound quality

Upon several listens to these cd's, I concur, this release has a few abnormalities that don't take away from the overall enjoyment of listening to these discs, but they are noticeable and makes me wonder if it was the master tape or was it a mailed in mastering job?
This has also made me wonder, will the rest of Dave's sound like this? I love me some Jerry right up front, why I'm here, but there should be a better balance of all the players in a band, not just one or two.
Disappointing? yes, deal breaker? not sure yet, will have to wait and see, but if there is any more killer shows that they do want to release, lets hope that the folks who do the mastering of these ancient tapes does a little bit better job than this release.
On a separate note, I was privileged to receive a code for the Dead and Company presale going on today at 10 am. Funny, I did not receive a code last tour, not privileged I guess. The price for these tickets is outrageous. A vip guaranteed reserve seat is over 250.00$. That's for one ticket.
It was fun getting excited like the old days, yahoo, the dead to tour, get your head together, get some tickets, get excited, get ready.....then I realized that those days are over for me. I can go see Billy strings, get a great hotel room, then go to the hot air balloon festival and get to ride on a hot air balloon, all for the same amount of cash. Kinda seems like a no brainer here, twice as much fun for the same dollars.
I realize that Bobby, Mickey and Billy are getting up there and there won't be too many more tours for them, and I would love to revisit these guys one more time.
The last time I tried to get tickets and got them, the show was cancelled due to Mayer's appendicitis. I don't want to jinx it so I will pass on this tour, besides, it's just too soon for me to be out there with all those vaccinated and unvaccinated people. Too all those who decide to go, enjoy.

Dreading

I ultimately reached the conclusion that part of the issue is how people are listening. I do not listen on headphones, computer speakers or use any type of equalizer. So far I have not listened in the car. I did try using Dolby on one of our stereo systems, which reduced the noise to a certain extent, but not entirely.

That's a fact

I've been in the record business all my life and agree with AJS. There is almost no way an audio anomaly like what was described could occur on some discs and not others for Dave's Picks. These discs are pressed ùfrom the same master. There would need to be two different master mixes for a subset of CDs to contain an anomaly. I would say the player could be a factor, but Obo ruled that out already. I assume like Jim said we are not counting Bertha because it is uneven for obvious reasons. I hear a decent sounding 1973 show here. The master tapes sound better better than Pacific Northwest but not as good as DaP 5. I don't hear many audio issues at all. I would like to hear what Obo and AJS are disliking. I whipped out the Bose headphones and all I hear is Jerry "shredding". What a night he is having. Weir too. Early on somebody said Keith was gone and that is true. Every once in a while I will hear a section that sounds like a tunnel for 5 or 10 seconds, but they are few and far between. Or Weir will just stop playing like in China Cat Sunflower but he needs to rest sometimes. He played China Cat, HCS, EOTW and Bird Song all in one night ;-)

Sound

The chances are virtually nil that some defect would have only affected such a small number of discs. Furthermore, it only occurs on the 9/8 show, not 9/7. I am very surprised as well that others are not hearing it.

Oroborous

I don't hear it, which isn't saying much. I rip everything to my hard drive as WAV files and run them through an equalizer with a bunch of sound options. "Concert Hall" is perfect for these old Dead tapes, plus I push up the four EQ sliders all the way to the right about halfway.

That being said Oborious, this sentence got my attention. You say:

I’ve noticed the phenomena/artifact on several instruments and vocals, usually only noticeable when that source is loud and/or with sharp attack...but it’s never like everything is distorting all at the same time.

This phenomena sounds like something Norman may have done in production. It sounds like a feature I have that prevents clipping at high volume. I am a fan of good sound but no engineer so I will copy the internet definition, which you probably know:

Clipping is a form of waveform distortion that occurs when an amplifier is overdriven and attempts to deliver an output voltage or current beyond its maximum capability. Driving an amplifier into clipping may cause it to output power in excess of its power rating.

When I play stuff too loud this feature cuts back on only the parts that are causing the clipping. It is obvious to the ear when this feature on my system gets activated. It sounds exactly like your description where you say 'several instruments and vocals, usually only noticeable when that source is loud and/or with sharp attack...but it’s never like everything is distorting all at the same time.'

My theory is that the master tapes Jeff Norman worked with had some hot spots so he used a feature like what I have on my equalizer to "even out" all the levels as he input the music from the master tapes on to a digital storage.

I am not sure why I don't hear it but I guess my EQ is dressing it up. If I listen to the CD with no EQ it sounds like the treble needs to get turned up all the way. Even then it doesn't sound even close to the quality of the EQ and Concert Hall enhancement. It makes me curious if a lot of people out there listen straight off the CD with nothing 'extra' to improve the sound.

On a different note I laughed heartily at the quacking duck interview. Well done whoever made that up. It sounds like something Jerry would say.

And last, I listened to the Dark Star / Morning Dew that KF mentioned on 5/18/72. I don't know how I overlooked that one but it is much better than I remembered. Somehow the Europe 72 Dark Stars never stuck with me. Probably because I rarely play those shows. Only because I want them to be special every time.

Re: That Mike

Great joke.. made my day.
I wholeheartedly agree.

Yes.. the sound on 38 is a bit wobbly in the beginning. But isn't that Grateful Dead standard time? It sounds ok by the time they get warmed up.

The Munich Invasion 5/18/72

Next up on the E72 anniversary list. What at a great show. And it's Dark Star => Morning Dew night.
I'm going to go out on limb here and say it's the first time they did this combo. This is one of my favorite shows from the tour. Jerry's guitar is louder than usual (and louder is always better). Crunchy guitars are tight!

Sugar Magnolia really hits a groove, and Billy has this absolutely ridiculous drum fill at the....drum fill part; I've never heard him play it quite like this - it's like gets a running headstart. Great version despite a classic Bobby lyric miss early on (proof of the weed).

Jack Straw is great. This is maybe the second one where Jerry sings the Watchman and Tulsa verses, and Bobby forgets it's not his line anymore - so they both jump the Watchman - not a fair fight at all.

And some great banter after Black-Throated Wind. Jerry always makes me laugh up there. He was the king of one-liners:

Girl Fan (to Jerry): Lovelight!

Jerry: Turn on YOUR Lovelight baby.

Girl Fan: You Turn on yours first.

Jerry: Oh no, after you...

Sound quality on 38

I was surprised this is the first real discussion about it. I got my copies a week ago, and have made it through the Bonus and Bird Song and Playing as I ripped and converted and had 9/7 first. Also, made it up to Weather Report Suite on the release. The sound struck me as incredibly washy, and while it's great to hear Keith and Bob much more than usual (some releases you wonder if Keith played on much at all from his presence on the tapes, but these are great for Keith fans!), so I just balance that with the cymbal heavy mix. Maybe they were trying new mic placements for the drums. Not Kidd Candelario's best tape by any stretch. He's usually top notch, though. Jai Alai Fronton last year is a phenomenal Kidd tape. That may be my favorite Wall of Sound release for sound quality.

Also, I'm surprised, or have missed, no reference to the Bonus Eyes ending not with its Slipknotish jam, but ending with a Here Comes Sunshine jam. A fantastic Eyes! Phil with a different start to his solo, and a different feel, maybe reacting to the Wolf darting around? So far enjoying the release and bearing with the sound.

Fleury

He certainly is a game changer, VGuy. He is one of three guys up for the Vezina Trophy as top dog goalie, and I think it would be spooktacular if he won! You’re right - we have a series, same with Tampa Bay & Isles.

BTK - I am just reading Bill Graham’s bio, and I’m at the part where he talks about the closing of Winterland. I would have loved to have heard a show or two there, or either of the Fillmores, or the Carousel Ballroom. Legacy concert halls.

Whew

Big thanks to whoever from this site talked VGuy off that ledge at Caesar's Palace last night. Assuming it was AJS or Mike, anyway.. a big thanks from all of us.

Back to your regularly scheduled Cumberland Blues.

Lotta poor VGuy got the Cumberland Blues

Rain Frogs

I saw an article in my newspaper today that some scientists have named a new species Pristimantis ledzeppelin or Led Zeppelin’s Rain Frog.
Where’s the love for the GOGD?

Homeless Joe and Hockey

Gary, CEDIA= custom electronics design and install association...
Boss used to take us all kinds of places, them we merged and went corporate and we go nowhere : (
Homeless Joe was this cool black dude who works that corner. But rather than just pan handle, he liked to try and help you in some way rather than just take, a symbiotic relationship. I heard him give some of our crew restaurant tips and one of my associates who knew about such things said his advice was spot on! He turned me on to a handy little convenience store that I wouldn’t have otherwise found, so I bought him a meal. I’ve never seen a person j walk/cross a street through traffic as well as homeless Joe (that’s what he called himself) Unfortunately, there were many other beggars that were not like him, and they seem to come outta the woodwork.
The GT was a cool old place though, loved parting on the pool/roof!

NAMM, always wanted to go, never did, bet it was fun!

HOCKEY
Yes, price was good, but it seemed eerily similar to AVs. The slight mojo shift; the Habs seemed to come out skating harder then I’ve seen, while the Knights seemed ever so slightly less jacked than usual. And like the AVs tge game could of easily gone the other way, so yeah, good hockey eh!

avoiding work

GD is at the top of my list of great bands, of course

I do occasionally listen to stuff other than GD for palate cleansing purposes

Plasmatics (1st LP & some of Beyond the Valley of 1984) AA NEE SO SHEE!!!
Swans
Melvins
Kraftwerk
Bad Brains
China White
GBH
Motorhead (of course)
13th Floor Elevators
The Exploited
Mothers of Invention
Zappa (some, definitely not all)
T Rex

others from time to time

coming back to work after a couple days off is challenging

Hey Jiminmd

You do know why the box hasn't been announced don't you? They won't do a thing until the playoffs are over!!! Enough already. Hockey in late June wtf? Go back to 6 teams already

And...

Yeah I'm from Boston originally, what's it to ya

I

moved here in '78 just in time to prep myself to see every Greek, Frost, Kaiser, Civic Center, show they played. And a lot more that they wiped out when they put this new God forsaken site update in. I'm not gonna try and remember them all again. And forget the east coast shows. I don't even remember living there

RE: PF

Yeah, that post holiday depression is a bitch!
After six months of no work, it’s been three weeks and I still have it! ; )

SNAFU, you might be on to something as Dave is Canadian!
and I think playoffs are a national holiday?

Me and My Hockey

Played a little bit as a kid. Predators fan but channel that shows them has dispute with cable provider and dropped them. Do have a local college that plays good hockey and a minor league team that plays well also.

My dealio, I wish the Stanley Cup was the week after the Super Bowl. Why start in the fall with playoffs in the summer. Nothing like watching hockey when it is 100 degrees outside. Wonder if any others feel the same way?

5/3/72 vinyl

Icecrmcnkd - sorry to read that you have had some problems with the above album. Mine arrived this morning, and so far, I have been lucky. I have played the first two LPs, and there hasn't been anything wrong. Hopefully, you will be able to get the sticking and jumping sorted out...its a great sounding record.

I remember when I had problems with a new cd player last year, and SimonRob ( I think) suggested it could have been due to the fact that I had gone for a high end player. There seemed to me to be some truth in this. The shop who sold me the cd player replaced it with an identical model, which works like a dream....almost. It has recently started taking longer to initial cds, and they can take longer to start than they should. Anyway....I wondered if your turntable was high end ,and had increased sensitivity as a result. Mine sounds great...its a Pro-Ject, but its not the most expensive model out there.

Simon

check pm

6/17/75

probably not a soundboard available

but I wish there were

6/17/94: it rained like a mofo (wet and cold), but I enjoyed the show none-the-less. Pretty, pretty good for 1994.

CAPTCHA after every single post?

They are trying to drive us away. Gardening aprons and now this.

grr.

Thanks Gary

I will reply in full in due course. Right now I'm preparing to watch football (soccer, right). European Championship 2020 (delayed) - Netherlands v Austria.

Proudfoot/ 6/17/75

Proudfoot, they have a copy of 6/17/75 in the vault. So, I'm. sure we will see it released one day, probably for the Blues For Allah 50th. Let's hope they release the whole show and. don't chop it up.

Simon

Awesome I am sure it is go Nederlands!!!

PF

guess you can see why I was upset yesterday.

We just need to watch and hope for a little moderation and self-correction. We tried to warn them years ago about all of the hackers, now we seem to be thrown in with the hackers instead of part of the family trying to push this old ship forward to the new generation. Shoot, and I aint even old school head like others.

RE: Me and My hockey

GF
I watched the last game of the 2010 Stanley Cup finals between Flyers and Blackhawks on a giant tv in an outdoor patio in Aruba. Wearing shorts and no shoes with the water and beach in the background. The combination of summer and hockey made for a oddly memorable experience. Would have been much better if the Flyers had won.

I get it, GF

I should just avoid coming here so much, but it's my little hit of distraction crack. Plus, I have a thing for GD.

I have told myself to limit myself to one visit per day. The Captcha stuff _each time_ might be the grain of rice that tips the scales.

Identify bridges, Deadhead! Identify them! "has anybody seen the bridge?" "where's that confounded bridge?" Please add Led Zeppelin and the Doors to my earlier list of palette cleansers.

Speaking of old school

If I have my mind right the list of old schoolers here:

For number one, and forgive me if I leave some out, we have Nappy and Bolo or Bolo and Nappy. Fight amongst yourselves. Bolo said he was out walking with his mom when they came across the Human Be-In so that is January 1967. He also stated that he was intrigued (if memory serves) with what was going on but was a young lad. He also said his first show was Winterland 1973, cant remember which show. While Nappy saw his first show in 1969 (or was it earlier than that). Obviously some serious cred for both.

Then, I would assume is SimonRob with Bickershaw E72 for which he wrote the liner notes.

Then, I am assuming ForensicDoc with his November 30th (think I have that right Doc) Dicks Picks 14 concert.

Now I would assume BTK would be right in there, maybe even a little earlier.

Hmmm, I know I am missing some that saw pre-hiatus. Please speak up or correct this humbled servant.

Think it was SNAFU today mentioned his pedigree but maybe his first show was Boston some time.

I know there many others, I consider myself to be second generation some may reckon time as third generation but at least I got on board.

But as Jeff Smith always says, Onward, let's push this space ship Onward to infinity and beyond!

Edit: Or, at least , the Bus did come by!

PF

and this goes to Keithfan also. I have a little ADD, very introverted, usually in my head. So when you wrote about Bridges and re Captcha, I didnt even tie in with the Zep remark. All, please forgive me as I am slow, just like the Mouse Avatar, a fine outstanding slack-jawed yokel.

With Keith the other day, it took me a while to get your subject as the response to the Chemistry call I gave. I didn't even think of my subject line as a call. It is I was just thinking of Chemistry when the melody came into my head.

All of these things relate to perception. I am slow to perceive but I chew cud a long time which leads to some depth of understanding.

Oh well, Ramble On.

Great news hopefully!!....

....I reported my broken Dave's glass to damage report and just got an email that a replacement is en route. Fingers crossed that the second time is the charm. Bubble wrap people!! Please and thank you.

FWIW... 6-17-75

6-17-75 is listed as being among the returned Betty Boards, the implication being that the soundboard is in the vault.

This show is special to me because in summer '75 (I've told this story before), a friend arrived from California with a large tape reel. We located a playback machine and hooked up a cassette deck and listened to and copied a killer audience tape of this show, just recently performed a month earlier. We were starved for live Dead so we busted out the Thai stick and grooved out.

Yes, I believe this is the only possible companion to the 50th Blues for Allah.

That is all.

hopefully, Vguy...

your replacement will be packaged inside a Stanley Cup for your GKs.

I will be in Las Vegas next week, but my wife _would not_ approve of contacting someone from online.

I understand it will be HOT. If you hear an ongoing, high-pitched screaming whine, that's me.

I was in LV in June 94 when it was 115 or something at the Sam Boyd Silver Bowl. That was horrendous (the heat and the show on 6/25...I missed 6/26). How do you LIVE there?

I plan on mornings in the pool, afternoons inside AC, nights out and about (for short periods of time).

6/17/75 one of the returned Betty shows?

:)))

If that happens....

....screw the glass. I'm keeping that Cup!
117 degrees yesterday. 114 today. 111 tomorrow. Things are looking.....up!

117

Ouch

Daverock

Audio-Technica AT-LP-120-USB turntable.

Not super high-end but also way better than the suitcase turntable I played my Looney Tunes records on as a kid

This turntable has a lot of adjustments that can be made to the arm so maybe I just need to tweak things a bit to stop the skipping at the beginning of the album.
Once it settles in the sound of this new release is quite nice.

Proudfoot

Without humidity it will feel like 85.
You’ll be fine.

And, you don’t have to let your wife know that you partied with Vguy.

Unless he get’s you arrested and you need your wife to post bail for your.

Extra reCRAPTCHA?
A few days ago it was letting me skip the quiz.

What about Gainesville?

OK after reading numerous comments about this stellar show, I finally hooked it up last night for a good listen. That second set rips! Awesome sounding FOB! I'm ready for this one to be released, also.

Jerry Garcia and Friends 6/17/75

Yeah I was there at Winterland for this artist benefit. Fun times.

Triple reCRAPTCHA

I fixed a typo in a previous post and had to take 3 quizzes to move forward.

I suspect that the different appearance of the site last week was due to the scrubbing and cleansing that was going on.
Sadly, it’s probably a knee-jerk reaction to the keys to the vault being stolen in a just detected hack from weeks ago.
Now we know why we haven’t received a seaside chat about the hypothetical upcoming Box, the recording of the chat was lost along with all the releases that had been prepared for the next 5 years…..

Unfortunately, dead net was not on Biden’s list to Putin of things to stop hacking….

No need for Count Vlad to tunnel into the vault.
He just hacked his way in.

OK, cramming for my next reCRAPTCHA quiz.
Crosswalks, bridges, traffic lights,…..

GF

Boston Music Hall '71. Not a clue which one, didn't know it would be important to me 50 years later lol.
Damn when I saw the email I was hoping I was wrong about the playoffs

June 94

before the crazy heat in the Silver Bowl they played Seattle and Eugene. Nice and cool, even rain for the 1st night of Eugene. Photos of Jerry playing in leather bomber jacket I think from 6/13. memorial coliseum in seattle was an intimate venue for the time - show was GA and you could walk anywhere i think not many people. and 6/13 is an excellent show. I mean it. Huge Scarlet-Fire to open Set II. And set ends with a fantastic, and I mean fantastic, Morning Dew. Jerry crushes it. Unfortunately the only SBD source for the show is the 1st 1/2 of Set II. 6/14 is an unusual set list but really well played, another fun show. During That Would Be Something I was thinking that Hunter wrote some lyrics that even '94 Jerry couldn't forget - didn't realize it was a McCartney tune from "bowl of cherries". Oh - the second Samba - I really dug it, its a super solid Vince song (Hunter lyrics no less) - change my mind!! 1st night of Eugene was the only night show of the 3 Eugene shows. I missed it for work - goddang it - the only NW show I missed from '90 on. My friend got dropped in the eye - it had been awhile but he was like ah yes I remember this. It poured rain. He loved it. Maybe best show of the 3 in Eugene that year. Alas, no circulating SBD for that night.

Life long Blackhawks fan here. fun to see all the hockey talk. didn't really follow this season much cause my energy was necessarily elsewhere. all I can say is may the best team take the cup

recaptcha has been green lighting me as of late - just get the green check mark. what i saw during the weird times on this site literally had me not logging in.

117?

That’s uninhabitable.

RIP - Frank Bonner. One of the most underrated sitcoms of all time.

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.

6/17/75

yeah this definitely needs to be released - as suggested maybe with the Blues for Allah 50th.

Gary, old school, old and in the way

Add me to the list, bought the first album on day of UK release, saw them at Hollywood Newcastle under Lyme (in the summer time, Mungo Jerrys breakout would you beleive, lol), and by the time 72 rolled around, had convinced a fair few friends to get on the bus with me, Dark Star night at Wembly, Bickershaw ( hi Simon!) and 3 Lyceum shows.
Also saw 2 of the 3 Ally Pally Wall of Sound shows on their next visit, but was very disapointed, something didnt click, they were demonstrably a lesser band in my opinion, I put it down to the coke, this is the moment my interest began to wane for a long while, I also hated Mars Hotel for the generic songs, Loose Lucy, US Blues. Look at the words and compare with anything off Workingmans...your milage may vary!

*RE/ Dave’s Picks #39 & 2021 Boxset(s)

More info is coming soon my fellow grateful travelers!
To start things off , Dave’s Picks #39 has no filler
And the original release date of the Boxset was pushed back due to “ uncontrollable effects caused by the virus which effected production, timing and schedule on certain upcoming Musical products & GD product releases. The Boxset #9 #9 #9, The Grateful Dead has no control over certain areas,just like a lot of other Company/ Organizations ect. what we ,the Fans are all experiencing now as well. But I believe everyone is gonna be jumping up and down in pure unsound joy & Graditude !!! Very shortly the plane is coming to a landing ;)

Thank God!! Now we know!!!!!!

I was waiting patiently for news on upcoming Dead releases, and now we have it. You may not believe this, but……Dave’s 39 will have……NO BONUS MATERIAL!! As this is the case with 90% of the Dave’s releases, I was stunned.
And now finally, news on the box!! Wait for it……it’s delayed!! Holy shit, I just dookied my drawers. As always, we owe LoveMyGurrl a SUPER large debt of gratitude for digging this revelatory information out of the depths of silence.
I have a scoop of my own……tomorrow will be….. Wait for it…… Saturday!!

Enough of this delusional GARBAGE already.

117

But it’s a dry heat!
Was in Phoenix once, before cell phones, 115, needed to use pay phone, sneakers melting to the hot asphalt...

Shakedown Stream

The Box announcement will come before next Wednesday’s Shakedown Stream.

The Heat Is On

It’s a cool 104 degrees here at 5000’ in southwest New Mexico.
The hottest summer I ever spent was a winter in Phoenix.” I said that.

here's to Frank Bonner

WKRP was a favorite show in my youth.

Chat's, boxes and re-craptcha

Wow in battle for security, they now want even let company names be placed into posts? Smells like Europe 1940.

And to Bailey Quarters, Too

A big shout out to Bailey Quarters (Jan Smithers) too, who is still among us, thankfully!
What. A. Dish!!! It was a very funny show, but had it been filmed in Mandarin, I would have still watched it to see the lovely Ms Quarters!!

Sorry about that

I was trying to write about last month's purchase of Warner by Discovery.

I believe

Box announcement and issues with website has to do with that purchase. If I am correct Rhino, controlled by Warner, now controlled by Discovery. They really need to use a white listing (websites with strong security and registered) instead of security by black listing (unsecure, dark web) sites that should be banned. That is all for now. More in a bit.

Bailey Q

Loni Anderson was supposed to be the looker, but Jan Smithers had a certain attractiveness that mere mortal teen boys like me could aspire to get with.

Yeah. WKRP. The outro song is great.

Misheard Lyrics:
Back to the boys didda, I like to have you here now
Zam to the bar in a room on me, uh-huh
But, we're looking far and I'm, I'm happy here to hear now
I need a woman through it, in a woman up-a here, uh-huh
Original Lyrics:
Mad tooth bar chin-up, box zing outta her hair now
Still do the modern day whack-a-mole ditto-o-o
What's that? Good bartender, i'da hat-beer 'n' head out
I said I wouldn't do it if a poodle had a lid on

I wonder if that poodle was actually the Yellow Dog...

BQ Lyrics to the music of CCR’s Susie Q

PF - Ms Quarters was definitely that sweet gal next door, whereas the Lonnie Anderson gal was the type that gave you the number of the local pizza joint for a phone number if you asked for a date.
A really funny show, great cast, I hadn’t thought of in years until hearing the unfortunate news about Frank Bonner. RIP, FB, you made us laugh!
