Last night.
I’ve heard it before but not sit down listen.
Though didn’t get the best listen last night due to aaaa, “extra curricular” activities/noise in the world.
But it’s an interesting show that you just kind want for it to get released, especially because ya know…AND, it’s Pinkus first show, etc
But I’m not sure it’s good enough, orrrr, tight enough for a Dave’s.
Specifically, the beginning of the second set. Yeah it’s fun sneaking TOG in between S/F but the transitions are a bit sloppy etc, enough, along with other sorta normal what I call Cali laid back looseness lol to perhaps keep it getting “Daved”
As we know, he likes to try and pick the best representation or presentation of the band/music on a specific tour etc, and not necessarily what some might consider “the best show” of the tour.
BUT!
After this Reno show getting out, and as Jim often suggests, sometimes these kind of shows work well to round out box sets, so I could see it as part of a Greek box! Curious what others think of this show?
Think I need a redo, and gonna hit the rest of the 84 summer Cali shows asap.
Onward!Don’t lend yer hand, to raise no flag, atop no ship of fools!

Let's Get Together (just played) and now the jaybirds calling on Like a River
Fell in love with Kate's voice and music back in late '80s. Great to have this live set as part of a SEVA benefit concert that includes other favorite musicians of mine (thank you Bear).

The 9-25-76 show.
Just exactly perfect.
Was using it to A/B test two CD players and the music never stopped.
Oddly the mid 90s CD changer sounds better in the bigger better newer system, and the newer (4 years old) cheaper player sounds better in the 70s college era system now in the bedroom. Didn't expect that.

Forgive me friends, I'm on a March (rock and) roll..............
Iowa City, March 20, 1971. Poor March, betwixt and between Port Chester and April, oh such a fate!!!
Maybe that's why it rarely gets the love and respect. Yet, it's worthy. Very generous dose of grease, mix in some Bakersfield/country/western, stir with rock & roll, and there you go---good old Grateful Dead!
OK, so maybe not a "Desert Island Show", but if I was stranded it would help me survive until the rescue party arrives................
Sorry, rockers, no quiz this time---unless somebody wants to venture a guess as to how many chairs were stacked on the sides of the floor at this show. Good luck! Oh and by the way, congratulations to Proudfoot, he had the first correct answer for the 3/14/71 quiz---stand alone Wharf Rat................
Little islands are all large prisons: one cannot look at the sea without wishing for the wings of a swallow.......
Rock on,

The larger the island of knowledge, the longer the shoreline of wonder......
