Grateful Dead

Wow! The sound is absolutely stupendous. Bear was a genius.
Only through disc one but the setlist flows beautifully.
Vocals are where they should be. No idea what that post was about.
There is real screamer in the audience, lol.
Will report back later with disc 2, 3 reviews.
Cheers all
Cool 1st set closers, Playin' at the perfect length to catch all the good stuff, Loser, J. Be Goode.
2nd set played in corrected order. Too bad it didn't fit to break it in Drums. What a tasty, rowdy, Truckin' > Drums > T.O.O. It's got it all. Jazzy, mind reading, and goes everywhere and back with room for some feedback space that isn't even annoying, lol. Keith laying down sweet riffs, this jam is so good it should have a name. The whole show has a great building pace. I like everything about this show, and I don't often say that. But I'm learning to do that more. Cheers

....yesterday was Bob Dylan's 82nd birthday, so of course Billy had to acknowledge it. Played Don't Think Twice It's Alright, Drifter's Escape and debuted Motorpsycho Nitemare.
Wow, wow, wow.....wow.

Alvarhanso: would guess the quick easy answer why would be the Europe 72 tour with the Academy of Music run up. That massive amount, along with a few Dicks Picks (4?), Sunshine Daydream, Hofheinz, River box and download, there's a bunch more 1972 shows released. However can only agree, there's more good stuff from fall 72 to come. Meanwhile, empathetic with those still waiting on their 46, did get mine early May but did not play through soon enough to discover disc one was defective and skips. Notified, now have been waiting a couple weeks, it does seem to take WMG quite a while, but eventually all should be made whole.

You're correct.. I guess I was grumpy last night.

Many thanks for your reply Obeah, hopefully DP46 will show up in our mailboxes soon!

Jim - I don’t believe it is tariff issues, mainly because our countries maintain NAFTA 2, and other items arrive from the US and Europe in reasonable time, but thank you for the support. I wouldn’t even mention it, but some others had mentioned they hadn’t received theirs, either, and the futility of trying to reach customer service here is legendary. The shipping fee on the box sets is now $70, high for sure, but if it meant delivery in even a week, great. But judging from previous ones I’ve ordered, it’s 5-6 weeks+, with no tracking, and you paid your money months earlier, and good luck to you. No thanks. Like I said, Dead shipping fatigue.
It is what it is.

Hockey would be more fun to watch IF THERE WERE MORE SCORING!!!

As soon as I grouched that the Canes tied the game

I hear you man.. and that goes to our good friends across the pond and elsewhere around the globe. I have to wonder if some of the struggles with international postage and fees has a tiny bit to do with the tariff wars, increase in nationalism, and general pissing contests between nations that were staged a few years back (and still continue). Not pointing fingers but my heart sank when all this occurred, it troubles me.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

John Nash (beautiful mind movie) was awarded the nobel prize in 1994 for his work in Game Theory in part by modeling (I think proving) how these tariffs and taxes between economic competitors hurt everyone and help no one, but it seems no one listens and everybody loses. I realize we started this.. so blame us I guess. A self inflicted wound and plain stupid. Everyone loses.

That's all I have.. Still haven't listened to 46 yet.. working on it. As you were.

There have been 4 1972 shows released in the Dave's Picks series thus far: 11 11/17/72, 14 3/26/72, 24 8/25/72, and now 46 9/19/72. For each of them, the major jam is a massive Other One, with 14's Bonus Disc including another Other One. And, how have there only been 4 1972 Picks?!?

....got a date with a Mr. Billy Strings.
