Grateful Dead

....I was at those Hollywood Bowl shows too! Walked down Hollywood Blvd Saturday before Saturday's show too! Maybe we passed each other.
Great shows huh?
Definitely worth the trip.

I haven't dropped into the deep end yet with this one but while listening to it on the periphery of going about this and that, I'm finding the sound to be perfectly fantastic. Great separation to give a lot of space between everyone. The energy is really up there too. Like they're playing on the east side of the Mississippi or something. Actually makes me want to pull out the St Louis box set for some comparative listening.

Cover artwork is a fabulous fit and immediately took me back to being in LA two weekends ago for Phish's run at the Hollywood Bowl (an awesome venue that's worth the trip). Walking down Hollywood Blvd for Saturday's night show I went a few blocks out of the way to check out the Palladium. My guess is there's something about those streets that holds true nowadays just as much as fifty years ago. A lot of raw energy that never intends to let up. Pigpen must have loved playing there three months prior.

I've been running to the mailbox everyday this week like I was waiting for my decoder ring in the mail. After reading all these posts i decided to check my Tracking # .... Tuesday May 9th :-(

Mine arrived Tuesday.

I hope that Soldier Field show gets released as a CD/BLU-RAY set. One of the best shows of 91.

...with the shipping blues again. Same experience here as what DEADVIKES reports - my shipping notice is 6 days old and yet the tracking info was only updated as of yesterday. I'm in Northern Cal, the package apparently left Fontana this morning at 3:00am, and yet somehow delivery is expected on the 10th. Not a problem, though: Dick's Picks 36 is a recent and mostly unlistened-to recording in my collection, so I have some Sept '72 goodness to keep me warm for the nonce.

#7806 is sounding great with a typically hot fall 72 ripper! I hope all who are waiting receive this gem ASAP! Also, I seen that a movie meet up will happen this year with 6/22/91 Soldier Field

You could always buy something else while you are waiting. This vinyl box of 5/7/77 is keeping me happy at the moment. Beautiful sound, no surface noise, great show. What's not to like? Apart from the fact that you've probably already got it on perfectly good cds.

....should have it Monday. Which works, because next week my work is transferring over to a new OS and I'm going to need something positive to help de-stress.
That reminds me. Need to stop at the dispensery.

As many as half a dozen posts have said they received already. Seem to be from all over the country. My email notice Apr. 27 and that tracking number worked today for the first time. Says I should get it Wed. 10th. The tracking number was not a linque so I didn't know whether to put it in the USPS tracker or the UPS one. UPS worked today. Good luck.
Cheers
