The Dead - Drunk Monk - 09-19-2008 The Dead @ Penn State U 10/13/8 I have a Dead Obama poster that I want to put up somewhere, but it's too big for my car window and the window at home can't be seen from the street. Maybe I'll take a digipic of it and have my way with the prints.

They played for Obama in June; before that, they hadn't played together since 2004. Has politics drawn them together again? Let's call it brotherly love, musical companionship, a desire for a better world. "They're all broke," said my spy.<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/09/22/DDA312VVP6.DTL&hw=leah+garchik&sn=002&sc=584">http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.c ... 002&sc=584</a><!-- m --> Quote:Friendship - the kind of long-lasting comradely love that outlives differences and spats - is no joking matter.

Dm also called Other One :& Sug Mag a song or two ahead. Phil & the Rhythm Devils kept tipping their hand so. But they never played Mama Tried, which was Dm's main prediction. GL was ok, something very swine flu like. They lost it on Cassidy, with some redemption in Birdsong, but they fully turned it on for UJB. That's the good ol' GD sound, that crazy jam-self-absorbed sound, what we've been missing so much lately. 2nd set & E was blaz'n. Drumz went full on rav with about a half dozen firedancers adding to the mix. Warren tore up on Gimme Shelter. The encore dropped a lot of hat tricks, with an anthemic close. Dm actually bought tix - one of several mom's day presents. It was a pleasure to watch a show, front to back, and not have to wear a radio. Didn't even visit RM at all. Flew way under the radar. Only the wiliest of deadhead friends found Dm. We even stood in line, went through the front door and did the mad land rush to position ourselves right. We lost our salt shaker to the door search. Mrs. dm packed snacks in a hurry and forgot it was glass. Fortunately enough salt had spilled out for our cucumbers. It was a great show. They're selling tix for $20 for Thursday, which must be way undersold (as opposed to Mom's Day which sold out tight quickly) $20?! No surcharge? That's less then a movie and popcorn. If any of you decide that's cheap enough to get your dead on, find me at RM. Just got to keep it together 'til then. Re: The Dead - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-11-2009 My how times have changed. You brought salt and cucumbers to a Dead Show. And the salt got taken by the man. It was high grade salt too. - Drunk Monk - 05-12-2009 It was the season opener for SLA and they didn't quite have it together. The door searchers weren't even wearing gloves. They were being far too picky, so much so that the show's start had to be delayed for like half an hour because there were still lots of deadheads trying to get it. We probably all got our salt taken. SLA 5/14/9 - Drunk Monk - 05-15-2009 Set 1: Jack Straw, U.S. Blues, Mason's Children, Ship of Fools, FotD, SotM > Terrapin > SotMoon Set 2: Estimated > New Potato Caboose > Born Cross-Eyed, Dear Mr. Fantasy > drumzpace > Dew > China > Rider E: Scarlet > Fire, Deal Dm told his boss he was leaving early, but was originally thinking like 4:20 (SLA is just across dumbo bridge). When he got back from lunch, his boss said 'oh, i thought you left. why are you back?' to which Dm said 'good question' and shot over to SLA immediately (thinking all the while about PPFY & TQ's whiskey rendezvous...not). Shakedown street was massive. The show was busy for RM, but managed to catch quite a bit because dm was in the groove like the old daze, like Mason’s, a great tune that was abandoned years ago for no good reason whatsoever. FotD, SotM > Terrapin > SotMoon was phenomenal. Only caught a bit of Estimated while on a call, then got wrapped up in patients. Got back out for China > Rider E: Scarlet > Fire, Deal. That was all very satisfying. There were a lot of lost souls in the end. Dm didn’t get out of there until 2am. Dm is astounded that he used to do three of these on a weekend in a row, then three more at Cal Expo on the next weekend – dm was much younger then (and certainly more juiced up, knowwhatimean?) The boys are back. Dm is really hoping they continue to tour. Re: The Dead - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-15-2009 I only go to Dead shows when they do Touch of Gray you should have been there Sunday then - Drunk Monk - 05-15-2009 Touch was the final song. jerry as a vocaloid... - Drunk Monk - 12-05-2014 Quote:The Dead To Perform Two Exclusive Shows With Holographic Jerry Garcia<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://liveforlivemusic.com/news/the-dead-to-perform-two-exclusive-shows-with-holographic-jerry-garcia/">http://liveforlivemusic.com/news/the-de ... ry-garcia/</a><!-- m --> Re: The Dead - El Dingo - 12-06-2014 I want in on this. roflmao ED - for realz! how often do you hear me say that? - Drunk Monk - 12-09-2014 If this happens, I must take T. It's the closest she might ever get to experiencing Jerry. I'm also hoping he does a duet with Hatsune Miku. barton hall - Drunk Monk - 05-08-2017 Its one of the greatest dead shows ever. Cornell 77. I've had tapes of it - several in fact, worn through. The 2nd set is blazing hot. Today is the 40th anniversary of that show. An official collectors edition was offered this year and Stacy got it for me for my birthday. It came this weekend. I listened to Set 1 on my commute this morning - the weaker set of the night with Lazy a lightning - and I was getting chills, weeping for my friend steve, remembering blissful days spent with him and the Dead. I was transported from my commute back to those magical shows when Jerry led me around by his noodling licks. Then my windshield caught a rock and chipped. Feckin mondays. RE: The Dead - Greg - 05-09-2017 The shit storm continues.... Meh - Drunk Monk - 05-10-2017 Its not a major chip. I could fix it myself with one of those kits. It's just bothersome. Meanwhile Set 2 of Cornell 77 remains brilliant - the Dead at their peak with the Godchaux. This was nicknamed the Holy Grail of dead tapes, now brilliantly remastered for us aging deadheads who still play CDs (or vinyl even). I suspect Set 2 will be playing in my CRV until Cali Roots. |
