Grateful Dead

It's the 30th anniversary of this show, so I slapped it in the player. I suggest folks do the same, if only to hear Bobby explain that Phil had been taken by aliens during the intermission! The I Need A Miracle > Shakedown Street second set opener is very high energy! "When it comes to humility, I'm the greatest!" - Bullwinkle Moose

If you're lucky enough to go, just close your eyes, open your mind and let your soul breathe...For God's sake, enjoy.

most of the songs are jamed out like 15 min or more. not shows, that wouldnt be no fun

RUSTED ROOT & HOT TUNA opened, i'd love to get the columbus,ohio show. If anyone has any info on gettnthat show, please let me know

Playing it right now, and its awsome. kinda resembles the early 70's shows, most of the shows are jamed out like 15 min or more. Minus jerrys singing you couldnt ask for more, it seems to be more crisp and with more energy than the last dead shows in the 90's. If its any sign of whats to be with this tour, than the music will be great. It would be cool if they did like DSO does and pick a past set list and play it, preferably from 73' since there tended to be alot of shows with 3 sets. I wasnt happy about the prices either but you wont regret it when your at the show, from now untill april is plenty of time to adjust your life style and be able to put some money back. Quit going out to eat, dont buy name brand food, hault all purchases besides bills, theres countless ways of coming up with the money. Think about the last thing you really needed or wanted but didnt really have the money to get it but you managed to aquire it. Most things are possible if you got enough gumption.

Awest27 - a member for 4 hours and 7 mins and still bitchinhis Interests DEAD, don't you mean Jerry.......

All this comparison to other bands and price talk " They are not the best at what they do they are the only ones that do what they do" IMO while the "core four" have slipped somewaht recently their is NO denying that the product they deliver is awe inspiring. Case in point dating back to Bobby and Tom C at tower theater shortly after jerry passed, too SPAC july 4th in the rain, red rocks shows 03 and 04, little schoolgirl in AZ 04, Shoreline to end the 04 tour. AND yes i saw "jerry" over 75 times ...if you cup is empty... if your cup is full may it be again

If you really can't afford $100 then try the following. You have a few months to save! 1. Cash back at the pump In the past five months gasoline prices have dropped 56%, from an average price of $4.11 to $1.80 a gallon. Somehow, households found the money to pay the higher price and survive so now people should take that excess money they are saving and bank it. 2. Supper savings Americans will spend an average of $34 this year every time they go out to eat dinner, that's for one dinner, drink and gratuity; $76.00 if they live in one of the 20 most expensive cities. If a couple does that four times in a month the expense is close to $300 in low-cost areas and $600 in higher-cost regions, and if you have more than one drink or are treating family or friends, costs can add up quickly. 3. Renegotiate bills You may not be able to negotiate with the gas company or the electric company, but you can with credit cards, cable and phone services, among others. Do the homework and find out what competing cable companies, for example, are offering and ask your provider to renegotiate your bill. You may have to get through to a manager but Chatzky said she recently did this and got her monthly bill reduced by $50. 4. Smart shopping Retailers are poised to have one of the worst holiday shopping seasons in decades and are offering deep discounts to move merchandise. But smart shoppers can save even more money by hunting down coupons. Before ordering online or going to a store, go to sites like Couponcabin.com and Ultimatecoupons.com or Google the name of a store and often you'll get a coupon code to enter at checkout. You can save 10% to 20% or more on the total order or maybe get free shipping. There are also coupons to print out and take to the store for deeper discounts. And don't be afraid to pit one retailer against another by asking for a price match on sale items. 5. Keep the receipt It is important to hang on to all your store receipts and keep track of sales. Savvy shoppers can possibly save even more on purchases by checking back to see if the retailers lower prices even further. If that happens within two weeks of your purchase, most stores will credit you the difference. see you at the philadelphia spectrum may 2nd

For those of you who have seen DSO, IN don't have to tell you that if you close your eyes you would swear jerrys on stage. IN wouldn't mind seeing the lead singer of DSO sitting in on a show or 2, it would probably be a dream of John K. PS. THANK YOU DARK STAR ORCHESTRA FOR ALL THE BEAUTIFUL MEMORYS AT NELSONS LEDGES!!!!!

Spring may not work out but the fact they're out there gives me hope for humanity. My 1st show was St.Louis in 1970, and even though I will try Chicago, if I don't make it I'll be grateful for all those who do. I mean, they're so many DH's that haven't ever seen the boys, so if my missed seat goes to one of those folks, I'll be dancin' just because of that. Let's all have a grate time, celebrate in joy & love...and Summer at Alpine, please. Steve
