Grateful Dead

Had to look that up.
The spoken part between:
Redemption funds,
Stocks and bonds.
Scruggs, the master of the three finger rolling style. Changed everything.
Cheers

I tried to post but was Hey Nowed to death. Thanks Jim for perspective, good to keep big picture when greed rears its ugly head. First show, you called it, Trischka's first set was dedicated to the Earl Jam release which will drop June 7 sparked by him being sent a thumb drive with Earl and John Hartford jams, like the Pizza tapes. Yes, audience sing along, Rainy Day Women, Lady Madonna if you can believe it in bluegrass and yes, the Beverly theme, all three verses. concert is on line search on the Mainstay in Maryland.

...NRPS, 1970-05-15, early show F i LL m o r east
...Little FEAT, down on the farm
...Chet Atkins, The Essential Chet Atkins
...Van Morrison, Enlightenment
...Kill to get Crimson, Mark Knopfler

enjoy your day everyone, and PEACE for ALL!

Those were the daze……

We ask that all the time.
Ashes, ashes, all fall down.
But stuff's getting better I think.

Had way more but got HNed.

It did cost over a $Billion dollars to build. They are going to have to recoup that somehow. I can't figure out this one, it's probably worth it once or twice if you're sitting on such a wad of cash in your pocket that it's giving you curvature of the spine carrying it around. Especially if there are party favors involved.

I passed on D&C and Phish but have given this a lot of thought. I'm waiting for holographic Elvis opening up for the GD with holographic Jerry and holograpahic Pigpen. I wonder what they'd charge for that?

So I guess I'm with ConeKid on this one. Too much, too fast.

Edit: I would gladly pay scalper prices for the chance to see the Grateful Dead with Jerry at the Greek Theater again. I'd call that a bargain. My first GD ticket cost me $10, showed up a half hour before show time and the tickets were tenth row center purchased from the nicest couple I have perhaps ever met outside the venue without fear of scalpers or fake tickets, etc. Soon after that I happily gave the nice gentleman hanging out in the dark, under the stairwell another $4 for two small pieces of parchment about 4 minutes after we got inside. Another bargain, I wish I could thank him. What a change 42 years can make in a world. What have we become?

Ticketmaster Platinum is dynamic pricing.
What a scam.

I haven’t been to a show since 2017 D&C (where I paid $99 for GA floor).
Instead of a trip to Vegas for D&C Sphere I can use that cash for a new refrigerator and living room furniture. I’ll get way more enjoyment out of those.

....so, yeah.
I would've paid $500, but it didn't pan out. Could I afford $1200? Yes. But there has to be a line drawn in the sand at some point.

I'll be looking for that tribute to Earl.
Been a fan since the Beverly Hillbillies, lol.
Tony T. in a club? Heavenly!
Cheers

Don't know what the ticket prices started at for Phish at the Sphere, $1200 is scalper territory. As I understand it (never been to one) Phish used to go to some effort to control ticket prices. Not their fault scalpers in Vegas got crazy. They donated their efforts last summer at SPAC for two concerts for flood relief in VT and NY. Balk at anything past three digits, the last, a few nights ago in a 90 seat club, Tony Trischka quartet, $20, music was outstanding. Trischka has an album coming out in tribute to Earl Scruggs, guests include Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Sam Bush.
