    So much for getting anything done today lol, WTH, why not…

    Aaahhh, if only this one had a DS! Awesome SB, awesome show!
    Not sure what’s available or not, with minor editing, but if ya do the math you could almost get 9/20 and the meat and potators from 9/19 on three discs…OR, if there’s some but not all of others available from the run you might have a nice DaP/w bonus disc…not sure enough overall here for a box, but perhaps as part of something more comprehensive? Just my dos centavos…

    No PF, I haven’t made it to Port Chester, yet. But per your recommendation it’s on my list! Looks like I have about a dozen SBs I haven’t heard before, and those six Auds. After that, time to git along little doggie! It’s been fun, but (per usual) I ended up doing way more than planned lol. Have a new appreciation for 1970 now, but starting to get burnt, and eager to roam elsewhere!
    Onward!

    Ok, been putting this one off fo ever, between all the hype, and it being on Dave’s possible list that doesn’t exist, figured I’d get ultimate virginal listen when it was released.
    But, since that hasn’t happened yet? Gotsta continue on with my quest.
    Besides, if I hear it, Murphy’s law, it’ll get released soon lol

    Worried. Anything I’ve heard that’s hyped this much usually disappoints?

    Should be doing other things, but just can’t shake the existential depression today, so WTH…

    Audio on this acoustic section now playing is abysmal. Supposedly eee lec tric is better…
    Edit: electric is better sounding but not spectacular.
    Figure if Dave has it as a possibility then maybe he has good tapes?
    Not sure how I feel about this one. Probably due to all the hype?
    Too many “best version” of this and that etc
    Definitely a good show, and though I don’t need a pristine SB to hear if their playing well, it probably would help? Throughout, I kept feeling like I was missing something, perhaps a touch o the mojo hand? I dunno, can’t grasp right words, definitely a great show but perhaps from musicians pov not RJ?
    Some shows just BOOM!, it hits ya, maybe situational?, perhaps next time I’ll 180 lol.
    Awesome DS, best…? I wouldn’t go that far, LL, same deal, though this one was interestingly different and perhaps more lewd and bawdy than normal lol, best…? Mmmmm, no.
    Overall, mediocre acoustic set comparatively, but one tasty Grease fest to be sure, and again, cool DS.
    Personally, that’s worth the price of admission alone, but objectively 4-4.5 outta five, maybe?
    Let’s see what the next one sounds like…

    More goodness, but sonically inconsistent?

    Another Aud, this ons not so good, so far?
    But figured should hit the whole run to fully appreciate the next few gems.

    Ok for housework…

    Would ya hear my voice,
    Come through the music

    This acoustic stuff is sweet!!
    And not so bad for Auds?
    Wow, really dig the acoustic hybrid Truckin!

    Imagine the electric set will suffer more because of the Aud?

    harmonicas play skeleton keys

    Dennis - it said on the news last week that the sale of harmonicas has gone up since "A Complete Unknown" started showing.
    I tried to play one when I was a teenager - but could never get to grips it. Plus it seemed to upset the cat. If it had gone missing for a while, I used to stand at the back door and blow into it. In no time at all, the cat would appear, running into the house with it's tummy close the the floor. If I played when it was already in the house it used to start crying. Funny what you remember.

    It is an Aud, but not bad, and interesting set list/firsties

    Edit: good first, ok second, sound seemed not as good for electric set?
    Cool early tape PF

    Onto a touch o 5/15/70 DS etc for a sitz!

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!
