    We've had his Xmas Vol.2 on vinyl since BITD. Our favorite "non-traditional" Xmas album. I've stopped collecting the old hardware store, tire store, and the every big star on on their label type of Xmas records now that I've got about 20 or so. Some real gems in there and always available in the used pile for peanuts. Most have very little wear as they were only played one week a year. All the best to everyone here for happy holidays.
    Cheers
    Edit: Checkers came to eat but is hesitant to come in yet so we are developing trust again. Must have gone back to his feral roots. We'll get him back though I'm sure. Thanks again for the support.

    DaP 6 - Disc 1- This was one of those early returned reels miracles. That Dark Star was a favorite long before DaP series was a twinkle in Dave's eye. Blew me away when they announced this one. And as an added bonus this release has yet another Dark Star (DS > Stephen > Eleven) 12/20/69 Fillmore Auditorium, San Fran. Oh and it's got 2 Mason's Children. And wait there was even more for subscribers - a bonus disc featuring a big chunk of 12/21/69 Fillmore Auditorium (if you're keeping score that makes 3 Mason's Children. And 2 New Speedways. A couple of Cumberlands. And an Other One. Lots o' Pig.

    Getting ready for a long drive to the snowy north to spend Christmas with some of the family. Might even get in a ski run or three. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

    1st set goodness with a sweet To Lay Me Down and that whacky-doodle '74 style Playing - which I SWEAR has the genesis of Shakedown Street in the middle when Jerry gins up that funky groove/phrase and they all play with it for a bit ... Some technical issues skew the start to the 2nd set (moisture everywhere, Phil says) but I think Seastones 'unbalanced' the speaker/sound setup
    Once they get it figured out though, the Eyes is d*mn strong - and the China Doll that follows is as delicate/pretty as it gets (outside of a missed vocal note or three). All that, and there's still the big Jam with Caution! to go ...
    Have a good afternoon everyone!

    with some fut bul chaser…

    Y33…complete Boxilla by New Years…yaaasss, it isss good to have goals lol
    A freak after my own heart! I only have a mere bakers dozen to finish off my quota: The seven final 79s, the last 3 84s, and first three 85s.
    Then maybe a little free range freakin, perhaps start poking around 1970,
    But…then onto all/most of 85, few remaining summer 90, dip my toe into 95, perhaps a pinch of Fall 80, with more 1970 sprinkled about?
    But first things first, nice Dancin happening here/now on 12/10.

    DaP 1: just got a copy thanks to one of our favorite folks here ; ) and so have only heard it once, but it did get my attention lol

    2/17/73…first 5 or 6 shows of 73 = best 73 box eevveerr, and depending which way your pleasure tends one might argue GOAT? Ok, maybe that’s pushing it but ! Good Sheet Mon

    10/24/71 is mos def a rrrripper!

    Mr BC, tearing it up lately! You go Son!
    And “if you get confused, just listen to the music play” 12/10/79 woo who!

    Poor PF…Xmass hell?…perhaps the outa state in-laws lol
    Hang in there son, and thank the baby Heh Zeus for the archive!
    Hey, think of all the joy your bringing and karma your building! ; )

    Dbl Edit: easy firstshow, HF is a trained professional. Warning: this should not be tried at home without professional oversite chilrens.

    Penultimate!

    Gotta take a shot.
    This early better go with Bailey's or Kahlua.
    Or HF's recipe for success, Jameson in my coffee.
    Don't have any of those so going with Indica, close enough.
    Cheers
    Edit: second hit req'd. as that word has been said again

    10/21/71 . . .

    Listening again this morning and I'm suddenly thinking about the St. Stephen encore (having a "??" moment) and sure enough, this is the first of only 2 times they played it with Keith pre-hiatus, which also means (for those of you playing along at home) it is the penultimate performance pre-hiatus. The second and last time was 10/31/71 in Columbus (DiP2). Curious how it dropped out of the rotation right at the beginning of Keith's tenure and only making it's way back in June '76.

    now the Penultimate Edit - oh drat, my old deadbase let me down (as in my research wasn't thorough enough.) DB IX was lacking the set list for 10/24/71 Detroit and turns out they played it at that show, again as an encore into JBG. So 10/24 is the actual penultimate pre-hiatus performance. Oh and its got a big ole Dark Star also. I'm sure Doc has talked about this one but new to me.

    Yet another edit: at ~13'15" of the 10/24 Dark Star Phil begins playing a base line that basically is straight out of opening of Eyes of the World?!

    That 2/17/73 HCS > China Cat > Rider is sweet!

Currently I am not listening to music but busy organizing my huge music collection which I managed to mess up over the years :D LOL. Found a cool article while surfing the webhttp://www.netpegs.com/comp-and-tech/peg/cool-online-tools-to-keep-your… which forced me to think to organize my music as well... Will be busy with this for another couple of days :)
