    Giving this one a run, then I'll stay away from '78 until the box arrives.

    Hey Cone Kid
    I pieced that 10/24/70 show back together yesterday too. That Attics is so good!

    Peace

    Furthur 89/ OBEAH

    OBEAH 82: I had/have what was a very nice tape BITD by our limited standards of KC first set, actually, I think I only had first sets of both shows but boy did they get played a ton! Years later on my quest I hit the whole shows and fully enjoyed them! Hopefully you will too!

    Onto 9/29 and later 9/30/89 today.
    Hopefully hit 10/1 mañana AM, then give 51 the full treatment in the afternoon!

    I think I’ve heard and/or seen these, but not in succession/order etc and don’t recall too much. So WTHN! We’ll just keep rollin on through. Hell, since I’m ahead of my “schedule” this year, maybe I’ll continue on with fall 89?
    But, “really beeeg shoo” today, and so far the 29 is mas fine!

    Summer '82 distractions

    Fine thinking, Oro, I am indeed amenable to some distractions. And speaking of 8/3 Kansas City, I had the first set back in the day but I don't think I've ever heard set II. The setlist "interests me strangely" (in the immortal phrasing of Bertie Wooster) - it looks like one good ride from start to end. And 8/4 - oh, last GD show at Kiel, eh? I've never heard a note of it.

    Funny thing about this little summer trip is that I've yet to play Dave's Vol 51! I got it out this morning and checked out the tour rider, read the liner notes again... but yet it still sits unripped and unplayed. What a nice problem to have, though. It's great to be a deadhead.

    Hmmm, sorta lost with all the fresh hoopla today!
    Aaaa, let’s see, did the 17 yesterday. Definitely good but maybe they’ve peaked at Alpine and Cal X? Let’s find out, forward, never straight!
    On 18 now. More good but maybe not RJ summer 89 dead?
    Lots of distractions today so…? Definitely good, guess just how good? ; )

    EDIT: upon Futhur review…taint nothin wrong wif dis one!
    Maybe slightly relaxed, in a good way, but mos def another fine 89!
    Maybe a bit of a creeper? Steady as she goes capin, JG slowly builds things up with some fine renditions!
    Ok, try and get 8/19/89 in before TOO arrives, hopefully with 51!
    Onward!

    Summer 82, nice! while yer down there ; ), check out the hot second set from Kansas and St Louie show, and…?
    Good sheet Mon!
    If my memory is correct, that KC Women Are was my first tape introduction…

    Edit: 8/19/89: another good ? It’s another of the Cali laid back shows…meaning, the playing is really good, but there’s a looseness or, relaxed atmosphere?
    I’ve always had a hard time describing..if you say laid back people think it’s too mellow etc. but these shows are not, their good, but, maybe don’t burn quite as bright as some of the previous outings of the summer? Ha, how’s that for an answer lol. Ok, onto Shoreline…mañana

    I've been listening to a ton of 1985 shows lately, so I'm taking a break with 7-19-89 as some commenters here recently said they were digging. I'm up to Mama Tried right now and definitely a very strong start, especially the Sugaree...

    Well I've wandered off the beaten track from Aprils 1971 and 1978

    But I really do enjoy Summer '82 and today's the anniversary of 7/31/82 - included in 30 Trips. I missed that box set, but I picked this one up back when people were parting out 30 trips shows on eBay for $30-$35. I think I've only spun it once or twice, so it felt right to dust if off.

    Afterwards I intend to get down 'n dusty with 8/1/82 Oklahoma City. I had a spectacular low-gen copy of this one thanks to a tape tree I was part of circa '90 or '91. I haven't heard it in decades but I remember it being a good one.

TN John - very cool! (a bc bday show not that I was there.) my FOTDs box set is crossing the Great Basin right now (i think) based on tracking. Hopefully by Tuesday next week.

6/14/94 - iwt and got here listening today via a circuitous route of JOTM (from 3/11/93 Rosemont) drive home last night which has a late period Masterpiece and this morning (gestures wildly) somehow saw the set list here and thinking "wow" I saw a Masterpiece in 94. And from there Set I etc. Very unusual set list Set II and a really fun and fine well played show. Posting now because Set II leads off with 45 second structured drumz intro to Victim and it caught my ears as something I had "never" heard (despite being there!) Victim into Lazy River Road. And then the second Samba In The Rain, which I will unabashedly say sounded great that night, totally new to me, and strong cool memory of Phil/Bob/Jerry/Vince singing the chorus and it rocked. Samba > Trucking > and a super chill That Would Be Something into drumz. Those late era shows in Seattle Memorial Coliseum kicked it.

At the risk of joining said society, I like the points you made, Daverock. I'm thinking of some live Quicksilver I had on cassette - absolutely ferocious playing, but the recording was not up to modern standards. Eminently listenable, though, and it broadened my mind to what that group was capable of. Or that Pink Floyd stuff from early '72, some early Doors stuff... that early '67 Thirteenth Floor Elevators concert (I think it later got released properly)...

So those Sept 1970 Fillmore recordings, what exists of them, should absolutely be made available to the public after Dr. Norman takes his best shot. "What's to lose / We're NOT confused/ You can call this set / The Fillmore East blues."

Live At The Roxy (Hollywood - 5/26/76)

Been thinking for awhile that I need to upgrade my system in certain key points. Slowly making my way to that move. Thanks for sharing ConeKid.
