Phil am I off my rocker, or did you once tell me you've met some of the guys during your performing/studio days?

Very briefly, kind of in passing. Never hung out or played with any of the Dead.

Still, that's pretty cool. I know you got meet and work with a lot of others over the years.

Just don't accept an invite to play keyboards with any GD associated band. The job is cursed.

Only Hornsby, and Chimenti are still with us, possibly Constanten, but he left early in the game.

same here.   I was in the middle of buying tix twice and got timed out when I had to jump on a video conference.  Efff.   I'll try to find some on the secondary market closer to the date.   
Yup, going fishing

I was in about an hour ago and they had 75.00 ones.

I don't have that kind of bank as an unemployed college student.

I'm going to roll the dice that some cheaper ones will pop on Saturday. I may go solo. Both of my buddies bailed because of ticket prices

I found the $75 tix also but not paying that for nose bleed seats at an indoor venue

I'm getting too old to crash the pit, but I'll sneak on the floor. I'm gonna see what opens Saturday

troutfanatic

I'm in. Got floor seats too. An Army buddy had mercy on my unemployed college student ass.

Miracle found...

I needed a break before finals, so I went last Tuesday night. It did not disappoint, unlike the fans in New Orleans...

Had great seats and the show was awesome. I had class the next morning so I passed on the psychedelics.

Debut of The Band's, The Weight and an awesome fucking Terrapin Station in set 2.


Hell in a Bucket (good but slow)
Bertha (got crowd dancing)
Peggy-O (meh- fluff)
When I Paint My Masterpiece (ok)
Greatest Story Ever Told (good)
Ship of Fools (good)
Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo (awesome woke everyone up again)
Let It Grow (slow but excellent)

Set 2:
The Weight (awesome)
Playing in the Band (extended long as hell)
Uncle John's Band (meh- fluff)
Terrapin Station (made the show for me)
Drums (is what it is)
Space (need more beam)
Standing on the Moon (can't stand it without JG)
I Need a Miracle (okay)
Going Down the Road Feelin' Bad (excellent close out into encore)

E: Black Muddy River (okay)
Playing in the Band reprise (always awesome without Donna Jean)

Summer Tour Announced!

Go for fuckin broke because come August I got no life for 27 months.

8 June- Atlanta

9 June- Raleigh

20 June Cuyahoga Falls- Blossom Music Festival

Rumors of Lockn in August.

Replay of The Weight from Charlotte.

Not as good as the days of Brent Mydland and Jerry, but I'll take it.



Just confirmed, I am on the rail for Atlanta!


sanjuanwormhatch

I've missed the last two atlanta shows but with this one being on a friday night and it being at the mythical lakehood I imagine I will break that streak.  The lot always gets nice and weird at lakehood.  I love it.
