Grateful Dead

7 17 89

At GDTRFB

still have mixed feelings about Alpine 89...

Close friend had an awesome time at that '83 show - he has a fond recollection of an endless stream of party favors moving along the line, help yourself and pass it along, as they waited to get in.

The '87 show is a personal favorite from that year.

Saw Bob and Wolf Brothers there last year. Awesome show on a stone cold gorgeous late summer evening/night. Just a stage set in front of the slope. My brother and I talked to some old timers we met there about whether the stage for Bob and Wolf Brothers was in same place as the earlier Dead shows. Memories were hazy but it seemed that it had moved, probably because there had been a lot of development over the years.

Anniversary listen.

Time for some fall tour 84…

And now 10/6/84

What an interesting show. Pairs nicely with the Santa Fe from the same year that rumor has it will grace our front doorsteps in a month give or take.

The small venue canaries began to die in '83 and Park City stands out as a place the band might not be invited back to play. Yet crowd sizes began to grow in the early 80's (keep crowd size comments to a minimum).

But boy, if you got into one of these smaller venue grande locale venues and the boys were on (which they often were), boy howdy was it a heel kickin' paper lickin' good time.

I did not attend Park City but man oh man oh man oh my, I wish I had.

Syria Mosque.
CD spinning now, first listen and it’s some good stuff.

Stayin alive indeed!
