    ...sad to say that I was done with the crowds and extraneous BS after Oxford 7/3/88.
    After learning of Brent's passing while vacationing in Acadia & Bar Harbor, Maine, the decision was made to see the Fat Man as much as possible moving forward before it was too late.
    My 1st show back to see the "new" GD was 9/16 @ MSG and so thankful.
    Crowd reactions were great, and Hornsby's grand facing Garcia allowed them to easily exchange smiles...and while things are always in perpetual motion...at the time we were all SO happy to be able to experience
    the GOGD, no matter what iteration the band happened to be in.

    Peace for All!

    Decided to join in.

    European tour was already booked. At World Music Theater they were passing out flyers for Europe travel packages. Then Brent departed.
    Had to fill the position quick, but Bruce refused to become the permanent replacement.
    The Tubes were done, and Vince tried out for the job……

    Zappa: You Can't Do That Onstage Anymore, Vol 2

    I run hot on cold when it comes to Frank, whose "humor" I often find obnoxious. But man, the band on this gig? Unbelievable.

    And some of jokes are actually funny!

    Good, but maybe a step off the previous few?

    Excellent show

    I was a little "ugh-y" at the last two tracks of set 2 (can you guess which two I am refering to?) but I accepted and moved on quickly

    Onward to 9/16/90

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!
