    Haven't listened to this show in forever. Gifted a ticket day before in Chaco. It was hotter than Hades in the low desert in August (my first time down there) and thought my tires would melt as I drove into town. Ultramatrix circulates for Set I only and it sounds sweet. Edit - There's an in-house FM source for Set II.

    Boston 12/1/73 and the Grateful Dead Hour

    So I brought Dick's Picks 14 to work today (Latvala!) but then I had the urge to listen to 12/1/73. Anyone remember when David Gans played some of this night?

    My tape of GDH #217 survives after 31+ years! I had to go look up the airdate - 'twas the week of 11/16/92. Contained within is some of the finest banter you'll ever hear. The "Clear the Aisles" song(s) are amazing - at least in retrospect - I mean, obv no one in the band was amazed at having to go on "this lame trip"...

    In the foreward/intro for his book, Improvised Lives, Gans wrote that he thought the GDH would end after Garcia died. Show #361 aired in August '95 and contained the memorial at Golden Gate Park. But now we're at GDH #1853. That's nearly 1500 shows later. Gans is doing his level best to play as many Grateful Dead Hours as there were Grateful Dead shows! #ht

    Uncle Tripel-so you were actually there - almost. Hopefully you got into some of the other shows on this tour.
    It does enhance an era if you don't play anything from it for a while. Not that I'm going to attempt it with 1972 or anything.

    Did that Dozin' at the Knick yesterday and was amazed how good it was. That 3-24-90 show has to rival ones from any era! What a setlist too.
    Cheers

    I thought I'd give 3/14/90 a spin over the weekend, from "The Other One" box set. A few years since I've listened to a show of this vintage, and it was a pleasant surprise. So much so, that I'm now half way through the next show in the box 3/18/90.

Just received my Dave's Picks Vol. 21!What a great show/recording!1973-That was the year of my very first Dead show in Buffalo,New York!For fellow New York State'ers,some may remember that was the year of Governor Nelson Rockefeller's new get tough anti drug laws going into effect...of which "Don't get caught holding the bag!''was the slogan on all the commercials!Anyway,me and a buddy hitchhiked from Niagara Falls to Buffalo's War Memorial Auditorium to see the Dead when, walking through the parking lot we were searched and busted with weed!The cops took our weed and then let us go with a warning-that almost blew the evening for us but fortunately the Dead and the wall of sound made us forget about the cops by the second song!(at least I think it was a wall of sound show-I know I saw it!)It was billed as two two hour sets-which it was probably more!Vol 21 is pretty much the same set list as that October show as I remember it.(without checking).Great memories of a life changing time in my life-I was 16 years old then and I turn 60 in April!I probably have heard some Dead or JGB almost every day since then!
