Grateful Dead

Daverock, just remember never to play cards with anyone named "Duwayne." If he wins he takes all your money. If he loses, he's likely to have a shiv or piece on him... You'll recognize him because his girlfriend has a beehive hairdo and too much makeup, torn jeans and high heels. A species found only in America (I hope)...

BEWARE!

I found those two LP on LP cuts on utube.

I finally found some free software for downloading audio off the "tube" again. They killed the last one I had.

New one is called YTMP3. I was able to scrap the audio off the video with this.

Don't know if anyone else is waiting on these bad boys. But they've been pushed back for over a year. I ordered all 3 and have been waiting. Recently I got an email from Experience vinyl saying 3 was ready for immediate shipping. I waited for mine to arrive and it hasn't. Called Experience today to ask about this. They holding my 3 until the other 2 are ready, I apparently asked for free shipping which meant send one package. Man at Experience was very nice, said he send 3 right away if I wanted. When I heard why it was waiting I said to just hold it. He said he felt semi confident about the April release date because 3 came in. He said the problem has been because of the dead organization, they will only allow the LP's to be pressed in America and there were only two they were allowing.

So if you've been waiting for these, this is the word I just got.

Dennis - There is something special about being a “Completist”. Your collection will rival the Library of Congress one day!

Jim - I did not renew for the DaP series this year, that international shipping rate is a ball breaker, but like you, I am in for this release, and TWO shows is something special, so I ordered it. Besides, 1977 Dead is kryptonite, just really special. Already my wife started with the “See, you should have just renewed. Now, you will buy them one by one etc etc”. You guys know where that conversation goes. (Shoulder shrug)

Ok, the Pink is ordered. Why I do this, I don't know.

I have the two other big boxes from them (early and later), so I have to have, right?

As my old man would have said, "if you're gonna be broke, you might as well be happy"

I always liked these Portland shows.. another year, another '77 release to start the year.

oh, the horror, no seaside chat for the rollout, Dave has taken refuge in his office due to bad weather. Taking a peek in his office, gotta admit I love the swag on the wall. Put a dark mustache on Dave and he's the next J. Johan Jameson in the next four spiderman movies.

One last comment.. with the decline of the CD and the rise of Vinyl, someone needs to create a CD player that looks and functions exactly like a mini-turntable so we can brink back the CD too. Just saying.. if they had one it would be cool to proudly spin GD discs on the mini, micro turntable of the future.

Pink Floyd Announce Massive 'Dark Side of the Moon' 50th Anniversary Box Set

The 2CD/2LP/2-Blu-ray The Dark Side of the Moon 50th Anniversary deluxe box set — due out March 24, 2023, a half-century plus 23 days after the original album’s release date — pairs the remastered LP with the live album The Dark Side Of The Moon – Live At Wembley Empire Pool, London, 1974, featuring an unreleased Nov. 1974 performance of the album.

In some circles, people might think you were referring to Duane Eddy using that name. Possibly not on here.

For audience recordings, you can go to the website phish.in and find just about every show they've played. But there is no way to download the material. In general, the only way to download live audience recordings is when they are first posted on a website like bt.etree.org.

As to soundboards, you really need to go through the official channel of livephish.com. For casual Phish listeners, I recommend downloading the app on your phone. There are always four or five shows being 'featured' every month and you can stream them all you like for free (if you purchase the subscription, you'll then have access to the entire catalog, which includes every show from 2003 to the present).

I personally don't have a turntable that can digitize the albums but hopefully someone out there will be able to help your out!

I was hoping they bring the axe back,,,, but noooooo.

The damn things double in price also!!!

Ok, I bought! As Bugs Bunny would say,,,, what a maroon.

Now on to the Phishing question.....

My sister gave me all 4 Phish LP on LP. I have all(?) the "official" tour releases. I thought this would give me a digital copy of the LP's. Two of the 4 I have a digital copy, but 2 I don't. One is the sound check/ rehearsal from 5/26/11,,, they did a 29 minute "waves".

The second is a 30 minute ghost from 5/22/2000. They appeared to have done 2 shows at Radio City Music Hall that didn't make the "official" show release from that tour.

Does anyone out there have either the means of making a digital copy from the vinyl? (obviously you have to have the albums also :-) ) OR digital copies of the shows involved.

Thanks and sorry for the off message message. (again)
