Grateful Dead

More of the same: it’s not fall 73, but mostly pretty dern good and JG has been consistent and more energetic than some previous from the year!
So far, only the atlanta shows would have been a disappoint.

Will do Joey. Though it may be a bit as I may switch gears for while and do the final death tour later…chever way, I’ll try to report back asap!

“Joey, Joey, what made them come and blow you away”
Unfortunately there can be some tribalism within our culture just like elsewhere. And I’m sure you can understand some of this just from hanging out on dnet. etc…it’s cool folks dig what they dig, but some seem obsessed with proving what THEY like is best! I don’t compare apples to oranges so I find good sheet everywhere, I mean it is the dang nam GD!
Don’t let anybody influence what you dig! My advice is always to not read online crap until after I listen, if at all, “if you get confused just listen to the music play”, not the “noise”!
Ok, onto 51…

DaP 16, CD 3…most definitely in my top ten single best discs of all time!

:) that's what I got right now.

Oro,
Can you give us a rundown of your favorites of '95 when you are done?
I only got to see the Grateful Dead in '94 and '95, I have always thought that the tapes aren't all that bad and a lot of people never bothered to listen to them, some of it is quite nice.
There was a time when a few older heads would be down right mean to me about it, telling me "you didn't see the Grateful Dead"

A couple weeks ago friend linked 2 meter Sessions #461 with JJ Cale - good stuff!! Will have to take a deeper dive in what's available.

Listening to 5/16/81 (Disc 1 - Barton Hall from Porch Crusher #1).

Stumbled across something/place/show called "2 Meter Sessions". Looks like a Dutch tv show with musical people.

Anyhow, youtube had a playlist of 476 cuts from this show. All studio quality. I grabbed them all, but I thought this would make a nice background sound when people are over.

I think i searched for 2 meter sessions.

Throwing it out there.

Thought these shows were supposed to be terrible?
Not so so far. More consistent than Atlanta, and JG even speaks/jokes to the crowd. Auds not full frequency response, but clean and not much crowd.

Finishing out the tour while we chew on the big GD news!
Edit: not the best listen with all the good distractions, but sounds like really good so far (drums)…nice Days Between.

And onto 5/19/95 with hockey.

05.15.70. "and lower down, and lower down again" (for the bonus disc)

'cause these times surely call for the sweetest of music

Yeah the 4th is an aud, but luckily no chatter.
Shows not bad at all? Can’t believe how many “reviews” call this worst ever…FFS. I’m so over the internet in that every idiot can just regurgitate some BS they read online…so it must be true! This is why our country is phucked: no critical thinking at all, just monkey see, monkey do. Is it FW 69, of course not their 26 years older and have constantly progressed/changed, but it’s far from worst ever! In fact, both these Bama shows so far (5th End of first) are far more consistent than the Atlanta shows, though not as “on” perhaps as the Mid?
I mean if I would have saw the 5th, (either really)I would have enjoyed it, though probably grumbled about not catching DS, Unbroken etc lol (picky ass DH).
I’m just so perplexed by folks “opinions”…and I blame all this tech and more specifically the misuse of it. It’s not supposed to replace thinking, but that seems to be what’s happened in the last thirty years…how bout, just listen to a show WITHOUT reading reviews etc, and actually critically listen, not get hung up on what year it is, the recording quality, or what some dipshit says online…if ya get confused just LISTEN to the music play!…ok, sorry, rant over lol
Hey kid, git off my lawn! ; )
Yep, GD 101, nothing is usually as awesome or horrible as the sheep say!

4/1&2: These we’re back on track after Atlanta, with the first night decent, not a ripper, but more consistent etc. The second night was very nice, I’d say in the ballpark with 2/21, 3/18, and 3/23. Conekid scores!

Woohoo off to the mid, take me to the river indeed…
Up to Masterpiece, ole Jerrski good so far…
Not needed for Jury Duty so might as well, might as well.
Onward!

Out of season, pshaww, freak freely my friend!
(In Homer voice) mmmm, 3/28, possibly my favorite Dave’s

... '95, well...

at the spectrum (3/17 & 3/18)
we got our 1st glimpse of
mr garcia and the teleprompters
which we promtly scuffed at
but then it was brought to
our attention that
mr jagger had used
one as well on
the stones tour

after "visions"
we all agreed
use it!

but as you can hear
confusion and lose
of concentration
plagues '95

today moving right into
march 9th 1992
@ cap center landover
thanks mr hornsby

PEACE for ALL!
