    First Show & Jorma

    Quah is the bomb! Such a great album, one I think every serious collector should have in their collection. Jorma never got the props I think he deserved as a guitarist, acoustic or electric.

    Jorma - Quah, almost autobiographical for him.
    Jorma - Magic, live winter of 1984 and much like I saw him 1yr. later in Crested Butte.
    Larry Coryell and the 11th House - Level One
    Jan Hammer - The First Seven Days
    Dap 33 - DeKalb! By recommendation here. Dang that's a good one. Sound is perfect Betty!

    Saw Phil last night for the Holloween show at the Capitol in Port Chester and it was very good!! Dwane Betts is a very good guitar player. Another Son of the original Allman Bros playing a GREAT GUITAR While playing "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" I felt like I was back at the Filmore east in early 1971 Saw the Allman Brothers at the Filmore East 3 times and the Last Weenend too. Also did Blue Sky

    Garcia 19 Blues Too!

    Colin - I had a similar problem with Garcia 19 and Amazon. I preordered it as soon as it was announced, but come release date, Amazon said they may not carry the item (they have since backtracked, but I won’t see it until the 2nd week in November). They have been doing this more and more lately, such as the latest Wolf Brothers release. I’d prefer to order directly from the Garcia family site, but like now ordering from Dead.net, the international shipping and sundry fees to where I am are a killer (not to mention slow, no-tracking delivery), so I don’t order from them directly anymore. It is why I did not renew my 2023 DaP subscription, which is a real piss off, but it is what it is.

    I know we shouldn’t talk hockey here, as some members tend to clutch their pearls, but the Second Best Player from Arizona - Tage Thompson - put up six points last night for Buffalo! (For perspective, think Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 point game in the NBA in 1962). I told people to watch this Buffalo team - after years of mediocrity, they have built a very young, skilled team.

    Now, back to your regularly scheduled DaP watch.

    UPS usually provide a few updates as the item leave Fontana, even if full tracking isn’t available. This time 10 days after the first suggestion that it was on its way UPS still say they are aware of the order but don’t say they have it.
    Just to show that it isn’t just Rhino, my order through Amazon for the new Garcialive set has been cancelled by them saying it is unavailable! I could order directly but as I’m in the UK it nearly doubles the price just including postage and could also attract further charges in taxes. Since 1 - 18 are still available from Amazon I’ll wait and hope it eventually appears. It’s odd that they cancelled it only a few days after release since I’ve had some items pre-ordered for months before they get cancelled. Enough moaning, I’ll listen to some of the music I already have.

    Anniversary show 10/31/83. The last St. Stephen

    39 years ago tonight I was up at the Marin Veterans Auditorium, to hear the Good Old Grateful Dead pull St. Stephen out the hat one last time. I only saw the Dead do St Stephen one other time 7/13/76 at the Orpheum Theatre. It was cool to see them do the song but I had a lot more fun the night before when all my friends were at the show.

    Cousins. Marin Civic Center 10/30/83

    Cousins, I had an absolute blast at 10/30/83. All my friends were there and we really were out there. We ran into a guy dressed like Ben Franklin and that guy just had us busting our guts laughing. The next night I was the only one to get a ticket, so it wasn't nearly as fun. I was at that Garcia Acoustic show at the Marin Vets that they put out on the Pure Jerry series, it was very cool. I also saw a great Blues Festival in July of 1984 that was held outside the center, Lowel Fulson and Joe Liggins and the Honey Drippers were 2 of the performers.

Your collection probably needs the Fleetwood Mac ‘Worlwide Live’ unofficial Box.
10 CD’s for $40.
8 Fleetwood Mac CD’s ranging from 1968 at the Carousel to 1990, along with a Stevie solo and a Lindsey solo.
Sounds pretty good. The only show that I already had was the 75 show. FM/pre-FM sources.
I figured that for $4/CD I should check it out.

I popped in the giants stadium 7/12, and it gets me every time. The whole first set like HIAB, loser, and TOS. the band was firing on all cylinders, especially Jerry and Brent with that tinkling keyboard is so sweet. Being there for most of the shows makes me bias. Just had to mention it. Back to dap 44. Great show.

If I could pick only one Grateful Dead show to see out of all the shows they played, it would be one of the acoustic/ electric shows from 1970.

Another one. Yikes! It's everywhere now.
And not a mask in sight.
Take it easy PF.
My local friend took a week. His wife like 10 days.
And they were just ready to get their bi-valent (Omicron+Corona).
I went and found the bi-valent (still scarce here) right after that.
Full effect around third week after booster, so about now for me.
But we are still doing masks in crowded stores since we have some COPD.
Best wishes and cheers

I purchased Dave's Picks 44, and it arrived as scheduled. The outer mailing box was punctured, and when I opened it, little pieces of plastic starting falling out. The CD case was broken. When I opened that, I discovered that CD3 was chipped and cracked. Today I listened to CD1 and discovered that it was defective. Tennessee Jed > Promised Land does not play. Anyone else have this problem? I have not listened to CD2 yet. I contacted customer service, and I learned that there were no replacement CDs available. Defective merchandise can be returned for a full refund. I am hoping that someone would be willing to email me digital copies of those songs that I am missing so that I can at least have the complete show. As I said, songs 1-7 on CD1 are fine. Songs 8>9 are defective. I haven't tried playing CD2, and CD3 is no good at all. Can somebody please help me out? Thank you!

Send a PM to MaryE.

In case you haven't sent a PM before: To send a PM, if you are logged in, on the upper right of the screen are your account options, cleck here, select messages and you can probably figure out how to send a PM from here. either that or fumble through customer service. They can probably pull something better than a refund off..??

Edit: Ooops.... Proudfoot beat me to this by a couple hours. I didn't see his response before I replied. Apparently, he and his dog have been eating mushroom chocolates all day and have developed super human powers as evident by their lightening fast and accurate response.

My dog Sarge, the brindle bull Mastiff had cancer, and was put down tonight. 14 years old. He was a loyal companion. "He's gone."

Condolences Carlo13.

I'm pretty certain that Sarge was very happy to have had you around with him for 14 special years. You took good care of him and now he has an opportunity to rest. You provided space in this world for him and that is a special love that was returned.

Stay strong and stay positive.

Carlo - Sorry to hear you had to put to sleep your beloved dog companion Sarge. Such a tough loss.

Sorry to hear about your loss Carlo, losing a pet is very sad.

Putting down a faithful companion may be the hardest thing you'll ever do in this life. This from an animal person who put down his 20-yr-old cat earlier this year. The day-to-day intimate and often subconscious connection is nearly unbreakable. And yet... mercy requires courage and acceptance. This will be hard in the days ahead. I survived by focusing on the blessing and cosmic luck of the years together and the realization, which does not come easy, that "there's nothing you can hold for very long," thanks Robert Hunter.

You did good for fourteen years and your departed buddy would wish you peace. As do we.

Condolences Carlo. So sorry Sarge's glorious 14 year run with you had to end. How lucky you both have been! As hard as it is to put down our four-legged companions when the time comes, they count on us to do the right thing to the very end. My 12 year old brindle Mastiff mix Annie is recovering from knee surgery, and I know her day will come sooner than later. I'll shed tears, but know she's counting on me. It's sad that dogs' and cats' lives are so much shorter than ours, but they sure do pack a lot into their time with us. Onward

I have had pets (dogs & cats) since 1965. It occurred to me years ago, that when I sign up to take a new animal (I call them my children, as I have no human children), we are implicitly signing up for an unknown time period of joy, and also, some days of grief & sadness. To me, this is still a good deal, but it makes the heartbreak no less painful or intense. I don't ever want to live without the unconditional love of a cat or dog, so I go in knowing the deal. I believe my life is always better with the love of a quadruped.

So, to Carlo, VGUY and everyone else who has lost a "child" recently, you have my total empathy and sympathy.
Carlo, as long as you remember Sarge, he's never really totally gone.
My 2 are 13 (redhead) and 7 (tuxedo) so 1 may go soon or not, but one piece of advice that was given to me was: "always allow 6 months to grieve before getting a new one".
By the way, I have not always taken this advice, but it does make sense to me.
