The performance was great. The energy level was sky high. Looking forward to the shows in NY on the 24th and 25th, they will not disappoint. “Lord you can see that it’s true”

Hey Y'all! It's 5:15am and I just made it home to Western Mass from NYC! Wow! What a long strange (and beautiful) trip! Everything ran pretty smooth as far as I could tell at the venue tonight! All of the pre-show jitters that seemed to be going around about getting in and getting your guest in all seemed to melt away once you arrived there. The whole process at Roseland ran pretty smooth. A bunch of tapers were set up at Roseland (including myself) so there will be some nice recordings of the show coming around! (and well worth making the effort to get! - I will be posting a Vine on here in the next couple of days) Roseland reminded me of the Fillmore in SF and was nice big open space with lots of room to dance. They let the first of us in right at 8pm and the band did not hit the stage until 11:15. So, plenty of time for everyone to sip some liquids and chat about old times and good times to come! Once Gramercy let out, about 9:15, there was quickly and influx of more people that had come from that show as well as instant energy boost and activity on the stage. The vibe had arrived! When the boys hit the stage they were ready to play! Unlike at Gramercy where I heard they started the show with a 30 minute warm up jam, at Roseland they went right into a nice Althea followed by a sweet Cassidy! Here is the full set list with some more comments to follow. Althea Cassidy Uncle John's Eyes St. Stephen > Dark Star! Sugar Magnolia - - - - - - - - Not Fade Away (after their bow, Phil and Bobby said something like, "We didn't fade away, WE'RE BACK!") Some of us folks in the audience at first thought they said, "We'll be right back" and us tapers were already looking at pulling another tape out of our bags. Then the comment was clarified and supported by the sight of the crew swiftly starting to break down the staging. By that point it was after 1am! so I think everyone was well cooked! Overall the show was really sweet and very well played on all levels! I was really appreciating that for most of the songs of the evening - especially the Jerry songs - the lyrics were shared being sung by Phil, Bobby, and Warren. So it was a really nice touch and I thought a very respectful way to balance out the energy and singing (and honoring Jerry!) The Uncle John's, St. Stephen, and Sugar Mag were the highlight of the evening for me. St Stephen was particularly potent and rockin' and VERY TIGHT! with some amazing adventurous and well played jams. And ending the set with Sugar Mag's was like being back in the old school club again. Hearing that just feels like they are at home and Bobby was having a blast with it for sure! As a final side note, rumor has it from some NYC folk that The Boys were actually slated to play at Battery Park on on 3/30 for one big Fan Appreciation Show but at the last minute their permit was pulled by the bureaucracy of NYC. So the shows today were the Plan B which makes sense why there was some organizational challenges with the last minute change of plans. See you on Tour! (^_^)

How many times are they gonna get me today? Happy April fools day everyone! First shows almost hear! Peace- Moye

has it listed on their website that they played "till the morning comes" hahaha. So wonder how the idea came up to play on the view? guess i'll hold my thoughts on that!!

The Dead 3/30/09 Angel Oranz Foundation Acoustic Show - Phil/Weir/Warren Dire wolf Birdsong Cumberland Blues Pride of Cucamonga Lazy River Road Casey Jones E: Ripple

It was for the D.C. Show, still waiting on charlottesvile tix.

Has anyone tryed to get their guests name changed for the 3-30 NYC shows?

Which show was that for? Just trying to gauge when my pre-sales will start arriving. "When the smoke has cleared she said, that's what she said to me. You're gonna want a bed to lay your head and a little sympathy"

I was wondering if I can even go without a guest? You now have me wondering if I can change my appointed guest despite the RULES on the Ratdog email I got. What number did you call?
