    You can listen to Grateful Dead records over and over again and never understand the attraction they have for certain people until you attend one of their concerts. Sometime during the Dead's usual five-hour set, it will all click: Jerry Garcia's Indian bead string of notes on the guitar, the ozone ooze of the vocal harmonies, the shifting, shuffling rhythm of bassist Phil Lesh and drummer Bill Kreutzmann, and the distant echo of the oldest of American folk music. - Columbia Flier

    "Certain people" will know that we're coming in hot with one that's got all these things and more, DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 41: BALTIMORE CIVIC CENTER, BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, 5/26/77. Yes, there's still plenty of spectacular May '77 to go around. Nearly chosen for Dave's Picks Vol. 1, 5/26/77 delivers three-fold. There's one count for the energy - all the precision of the Spring tour conjuring up the raw power of the Fall tour that was to come. There's another for the setlist which featured beloved songs from WORKINGMAN'S DEAD and soon-to-be favorites from the freshly recorded TERRAPIN STATION. And a third for its element of surprise (or shall we say surprises) from an astonishingly peak 15-minute "Sugaree" to new delights ("Sunrise," "Passenger," "Jack-A-Roe') to a rare first-set finale of "Bertha" to the second set's "Terrapin>Estimated>Eyes," traveling leaps and bounds towards the improvisational journey that is a nearly 17-minute "Not Fade Away." 

    Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 41: BALTIMORE CIVIC CENTER, BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, 5/26/77 was recorded by Betty Cantor-Jackson and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Grab a copy while you can.

    Now you tell me..

    What am I supposed to do, pull over and hope I don't see any cops for the next 12 hours? Besides, posting while driving is much more dangerous, it's a good thing I'm tripping or I don't think I could have pulled this off right now.

    Cosmic Yawns.. still cracks me up. How long until that phrase appears in the Urban Dictionary? I have learned more reading posts here than many things they teach in college. (before anyone gets any ideas, leave my alma mater alone..)

    It's quite possible, if I could go back in time and attend one show while dosed.. it would be 11/8/69 Fillmore Auditorium, Dicks Picks 16. Or the FW 69 entire run. Shows I wish I dosed at. Time to fire up the John Deere.

    Daverock, I never advocated driving under the influence, I just knew a guy who could drive really well dosed. Got to concur with others here that in my experience, shrooms are the way to go. I too, get those yawns, eyes start to water as you yawn away, a sure sign something is about to happen. Living in Florida all thru the 90's from May to Sep. sometimes Oct. we would be in the fields, every weekend. I enjoyed picking almost as much as consuming, well, almost. Been out of the loop for almost 20 yrs now, 2004 was the last time and 1999 was the last time with A. Miss those days but nowdays would have to be home, nice chill, with Jerry G and Gang or .... insert favorite trip music.

    EDIT: by “eat anything” I meant that no matter how the band played they thought it was the goat…
    The band used to shit talk the fans: “they’ll eat anything”
    I think monsieur Freak meant like eat as in literally to consume. In which case, I get the impression he’d excel at the latter, but not the former ; )

    PT: Yaasss, not to advocate, but I know a guy like that. Knew a few who could drive after tripping ok, but this guy excelled at it!

    Silly rabbit, yawn lol

    Trips are for kids lol. Wasn’t that a t-shirt BITD?

    Best place to trip was in the front row of GA Dead shows!
    Like the dude in the Winterland movie.
    Some of the best experiences of my life. Being that close, if your coherent and really paying attention, it’s like your in the band. Being a musician, you could catch them making little mistakes etc, and throwing things back and forth, and they have this whole other level of communication going on, much like anyone who works in an intimate, intense group setting. So they could tell if you were hip to what was actually going on and if so, they’d include you. Like say Jerry missed a solo, he’d look to see who was watching, who caught it, and if you did, and he knew you did, it was great fun.
    The best was busting Bobbies balls all the time. We’d pester him to play the good shit in stead of endless repeated lame stuff. Usually stuff he wasn’t currently doing. He’d get kinda miffed, but Phil would laugh his ass off and egg us on, great fun! Billy too, but when he was playing he usually didn’t make a lot of eye contact, which if you’ve ever watched him up close you know he’s like a possessed person with his eyes all rolling in his head in another place, Bob gets like that too. etc. Kieth didn’t look around much. Brent seemed surprised/happy that anyone paid that kind of attention to him lol. Never got close to Vince?
    Mickey liked to show off. If he knew you were watching, he’d do some extra rolls or something special to see if you caught it, he’d test ya, hell they all would. I’m sure it was more fun for them to have folks close by that actually had an idea what was actually happening and not just some over intoxicated noncritical clueless young fans who would eat anything as they’d say. Think screaming girls at Beatles concerts…probably would get pretty old.
    But for the initiated, with everything dialed in just right, there was nothing else like it!

    TRIP TIPS: Tolerance and familiarity, practice is the key. Just like with weed. When I was a professional and ate veggies all the time, id do all kinds of stuff, I’d go have a quick bite with the folks before things came on full blast. I didn’t like driving, but I’d be the one to go in the store at 3am and stock up on beer etc, because I was in practice, I did it all the time. Now I’d probably be scared to leave the house lol.
    So like anything, if your comfortable and used to it, it’s easier etc, that and I agree that knowing what/how much etc is crucial to having a good experience. This is true with ANYTHING. Remember, if your going to be dumb, ya better be tough, and having an overly intense or bad trip for 12-20 hours ain’t fun!
    Oh, and keep busy. How many times have you been really high but because your playing music, or skiing, something involved that your into or whatever, and your all good until you stop, then your like “holy crap am I fucking high” lol. Playing music, especially live was like this. As long as you were playing, you were good! One time we were doing A and crank. During rehearsal, while playing, I was fine, but as soon as we’d take a break, lol, wooooeeee, shit was intense! So don’t get hung up. Keep playing lol.

    The few less than stellar trips I had were on Acid I wasn’t familiar with, or, occasionally, because of cumulative effect of too much for too long etc. oh, and yes HF, gotta watch that shroom powder in the bottom of the bag! LOL, whole long story about how I lost my shit in Hershey cause of the bottom of the bag shroom dust! (didn’t actually loose my shit, did need to lay down in the mud for a bit, but saw a home made shirt there that had that on it and always wished I had one lol. “I lost my shit in Hershey lol)
    BITD Did plenty of A, but never liked big doses. Shrooms on the other hand, I was a warrior! Built up a nice tolerance BITD so could do strong doses and we did em often.
    Nowadays, no desire to do A, well, micro thing could be interesting?
    Veggies I’ve thought of retrying, just afraid I might have some other underlying unknown health concerns that they would exasperate? BP, heart etc?
    Also don’t really have anybody to trip with, and the other half has never used anything more than drink, so not sure I’d want to go alone with just her around in case shit got weird? She’s a bit of a worrier so might get too worried and put too much weird energy out? Wouldn’t be good time for either of us.
    Someday I’ll find the right situation. X, I have no desire to revisit. It was fun, but like A, I always felt like “this shit is really no good for me”. Never felt that way with the produce.

    Connectivity

    Sixtus - your account chimes very well with my experiences. I started doing voluntary work in 1987, the year I re-discovered mushrooms, and I did both until 1993. Its very hard to put, credibly, into words, but I felt very strongly that there was no difference between the people as I was trying to help and myself. That we were all different versions of each other. This wasn't an idea, or a theory, it was felt experience. Something that had always been there but which I had never noticed before. It influenced how I worked with people then and in the job I subsequently got. Meditation also became part of my life around then, and for me that was also part of how things unfolded. It never occurred to me to do this until a chance encounter with someone who did. That was another incredible surprise doing that -very different from what I thought it was. But that's not relevant for on here.
    Somebody told me yesterday that Putin is addicted to steroids. I have no idea if this is true...but it figures.

    the Yawning

    ...I too experience these 'cosmic yawns' (awesome label BTW, HF) pretty much every time on shrooms (including last Thursday for the Phish opener in Mexico!).

    I had looked into this a little while back out of curiosity, noting the frequency of occurrence on my end.
    Turns out they don't know *exactly* why it happens, but I did find this excerpt to throw some light on the topic:

    "It’s also important to know from a physiological standpoint why magic mushrooms cause yawning in some people. What it comes down to is formulations containing precise amounts of certain compounds. Studying and understanding all of the compounds found in magic mushrooms and how they work together may result in formulations that have different properties (and therefore different effects) than pure psilocybin or magic mushrooms."

    A deeper study indicates it has to do with affinity for the receptor that initiates a yawn, so it appears to be dependent very much upon the actual physical construction and binding of the various molecules within each individual.

    A very interesting topic overall, to be sure. And I agree that the takeaways from these experiences (especially the early ones back in college times) are best digested from a few steps back to try to understand how the things I experienced impacted me and my worldview - which they did in numerous, profoundly positive ways. The very first time after I did psychedelics (shrooms) back in my freshman year of college, I recall in the midst, as well as afterwards, the discussion being "If everyone in the world did shrooms all at the same time, there would forever be world peace." It was that monumental discovery that everything, all of us, all of it - is all connected and those innate feelings of "looking out for humanity" become embedded (or perhaps brought back to the forefront after being subconsciously suppressed). These realizations then have lingered with me my entire life.

    It seems that World Dosing at this point might be a reasonable idea to get everyone on the same page and back to looking out for each other.

    Be Well People.

Wow, the Grateful Dead sure played some fantastic shows on Valentine's Day: 2/14/68 & 2/14/70 are as good as it gets. Happy Valentine's Day everyone.

I was curious to see which shows they played on Valentine's Day. Turns out they also played in 1969, 1986, and 1988 on the holiday. (Others? JGB, side bands?) Of course, most know about 1968 and 1970 where the shows have reached essentially mythic status but those other gigs were generally unbeknownst to me. Lovely day all :-)

-edit- I should say, besides '86. I knew about that one as I had a nice sounding tape once upon a time.

-edit 2- Enjoying DaP 21 (4-2-73) currently, which sort of has a Valentine's inspired cover art.

HendrixFreak mentioned the 2007 Avalon release of the Bear’s recording of the Flying Burritos - an absolute fantastic release, with pretty well impeccable sound. A great band well ahead of it’s time. I changed my avatar to show me skulking around Chris Hillman, after a club date in town with his musical partner Herb Pedersen (a criminally under-appreciated guitarist, who did duty from the Dillards to Old And In The Gray). Nice guys, both, and great musicians, and this is a collection worthy of finding on CD. Ahead of their time, indeed.

TM, actually I was thinking after hearing the Burrito Bros dbl-disc that, while the sound is pretty darn good, it lacked a degree of clarity I typically associate with Owlsley's recordings. But everything is there -- bass, drums, guitars, pedal steel, vocals. It made me wonder whether the GD shows 4-6 April '69 are of similar quality, which certainly is good enough for me to plunk down money for them.

Hmm, guess I'll have to spin that Hot Burrito again.

HF - There is an interesting take on the April 4-6 shows by the Dead at the Avalon, on a blog called Lost Live Dead dot blogspot dot com
Not only were the Dead packing a powerful Pigpen showcase, some thought is given that Jerry heard Sneeky Pete doing his ‘thang on the pedal steel, and it reinvigorated his desire to master the instrument.
Regardless, I agree with you 100% that the three shows would make a nice neat little release!
Is there a Dr Lemieux in the house?

I’m sure there’s a forum page that references these but I just listened to Jerry’s contributions to the Zabriskie Point Soundtrack. I can't believe I'd missed them before. (Jerry Garcia - Love Scene and 4 Outtake Improvisations)

Wow. Powerfully simple playing. Like he was sitting right next to you. As he put it after recording, “…just me and my electric guitar and a little amplifier.”

Stunningly simple improvisational songs, slow, steady, and melodic.

These tracks won’t knock you out of your chair but they will make you want to sit still and listen to them more than once.

TM, I actually wondered about that pedal steel (possible) connection.

Did you mention PIGPEN??? In fact, that is what I noted from the 4-6 April setlists: plenty of my favorite GREASE.

Also note that the Burrito Bros. played Hank Williams' "You Win Again" and I think maybe that's where Jer picked that song up... I think in the early days, Jer is said to have always gotten to the gigs early.

That Byrds >> Burritos sound may well have inspired the Jer transition to the WD-type country, in contrast to Bobby's cowboy songs, per se.

PF's stage show by '94 was way way over choreographed...little room for improvisation...at a complete show dress rehearsal they did at an empty hangar at the closed Norton Air Force base in San Berdoo I found a sheet of paper on the ground that was a list of instructions to one of the spot light operators....it was completely written out...red beams at 5:43 of so and so song, green and blue at 7:31 etc...blew me away...I was working the weekend for a caterer I knew...the first night was a very VIP invited crowd....the second night, no crowd just us working folk and we were treated to a complete show as the night before...in addition to the stage sound system they had their remote stacks out on the tarmac in front of the hangar...mas cool

HF - The more I see those set lists for that 3 night stand at the Avalon, the more I would love to see it’s official release. A seldom-played song was Jerry drumming up the pathos with a world weary voice on (I Know) It’s A Sin. Just great stuff! What shows to see, too: prime Burritos as an appetizer, and really greasy Pigpen for the entree!
All for probably $5 at the door, which barely buys you a beer now!

Fun fact: Something in the musical air in April, 1969. Less than two weeks later, at Winterland, Bill Graham had the “coming out” party for The Band!

If you don’t have Bear’s Sonic Journals #1, Janis and Big Brother 6-23-68, I highly suggest it.
Bust out the wife’s credit card.

Weird that it isn’t listed on the OSF web page, and yet is the first release in the series.
There’s info about it on Wikipedia.

No sign here. UPS hasn’t updated since 7th Feb. USPS say they are aware of the alternative tracking number but don’t have it. This tracking number ends in FR so is presumably heading to France. Poste France doesn’t have tracking info and Royal Mail say that the number isn’t traceable. I’m still not worried. I’ll start panicking in a week or so.
Looking at Amazon UK I notice the Janis/Big Brother cd is on offer for c. £135 so I think I’ll give it a miss.

A little off subject and likely should be in the What's in Your Fridge thread:
Another Covid related crisis in Colorado. Ball can co. has shut out small brewers by raising their minimum order to a million cans per SKU (5 times higher) and not offering storage any more. One brewer said it would take his price from $10 per 6 pack to $13 as he had to buy cans from Nebraska and now pay to store the waiting cans. Ball blames metal prices and a shortage of warehouse space. What's next, sliced bread? Lord, give us this day our daily beer please.
Cheers, or maybe pound 'em if ya got 'em.

Here in the Netherlands I have not yet received my copy of Dave's 41 and I'm not expecting it any time soon.

It has been shipped with Mail Innovations.

Normally it is given to UPS who then pass it on to USPS who use the alternative tracking number, a US tracking number with the format XX123456789US. USPS then ship it to Europe where the national postal service take it and deliver it.

This time, for the first time, it is different. The alternative tracking number has the format XX123456789CH which is a tracking number for Swiss Post. USPS recognizes the tracking number but have said that the label has been created but the package is not yet in their system. According to UPS the package departed the international carrier facility on February 9. Swiss Post tracking shows that it left LAX on February 9. From this you can see why I'm not expecting it in the Netherlands any time soon.

I suspect that Colin Gould is experiencing a similar situation but his copy is going to the UK via France.

Whatever is going on, it seems that there is a problem getting European packages across the pond.

She could change her mind.

Just like I just did -- listened again to the live Flying Burrito Bros' Owsley tape last night and, indeed, That Mike is correct. It is a top- notch recording, especially for an early '69 field recording at the Avalon. Dennis you got a great deal for $5. I paid $20 with shipping and am very glad I did.

I can confirm that that '68 Janis tape by Owsley is phenomenal!

And yes, Dennis, it is very costly to read this forum. I don't need to keep up with anyone, but my musical curiosity knows few boundaries and thus my wallet is frequently getting plundered.

My DaP #40 came via Switzerland, but that was very fast. I’ve got the latest 5 releases from the Another Timbre label to play so that should keep me occupied.

Available on CD at Amazon for not super outrageous, but still pretty high.
But it’s also available on their streaming.

Also saw GD 3-1-69 vinyl there for $75.22, which is only $0.22 more than I paid at a local brick and mortar on release day.

Happy Will I contacted USPS yesterday and they are unable to provide me with any information as they state that is a low cost postage option that has been used, they have no idea where any of the international orders are.
They did provide this UK telephone number to contact UPS on 44 207 9490190, I am not going to worry about it for at least another week, hopefully it will have left the USA by then at least.

I ordered 3 subscription copies - one for myself, one for a friend and one as a spare since 0ne of my DaP40s went missing and I didn’t want to miss out again. The two copies I ordered in one go came last week in a signed for package. The spare (which I intend to give away to a friend rather than sell on eBay) I ordered separately has not arrived.

DaP #41 has just dropped through my letterbox.
It’s done better than two items sent to my wife by a friend in Indiana. They were sent in early December and have never arrived.
Not as well as an item from Australia that arrived in 10 days and was traceable the whole way with a comparable postage charge.
Going out shortly but will give it a listen soon.

Why, when I import my Dave's Picks into i-tunes or my HDD I can never get three "album" titles that are the same. Always need post import editing. Who is out there taking the p*** 😂😎

Why did it t sell out so quickly? a scam? I was caught napping and am pissed at myself and at the scalpers on eBay.

Shame about missing out DaP 1 in vinyl. I knew they'd go fast since the cd version is up to like 600 bucks!!!!

I laugh when I see the vinyl on ebay claiming "in stock"!!! Not even out yet. Price is crazy.

But have you seen the prices on complete Dave's and Dick's picks? 4k!!

But I did get 2 copies of 3/1/69 vinyl,,,, screwed up in ordering, figure I sit on it for a while and see what happens.

RIP PJ, and thanks for your gentle good humour, and a nod to the old National Lampoon, for being an often laugh-out-loud read!

40 years ago today , I was at the Warfield Theatre for another great night with the Good Ole Grateful Dead. The Dead played a great show, a great way to kick off 1982. It turned out to be a great year for Dead shows, with shows at the Greek, Frost,( 10/9 & 10/82 my favorite shows of the year), Ventura( always a blast), Veneta, Oregon, and a year end blow out at the Oakland Auditorium in December. Crazy fun times.

Not sure if it's been mentioned here, next RSD releases will include 4/8/1972(yes, Thee Grateful Dead...) on 5 LPs.
(never mind...just saw Colin's post...)

Last 5:

Ruby & the Romantics: Greatest Hits
Royalettes: Gonna Take a Miracle
Celtic Frost: Into the Pandemonium
Slayer: South of Heaven
Brenda Lee: By Request

Did you get charged the same fees as before, or did going through Switzerland and France first not result in fees?
