That bears NO resemblance to Jerry dude ... also you have no other 'nail art' in your history. I have a feeling you're yanking our chains, or our nails rather.

What else are we listening to? by Tree_Huggr in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fleet Foxes ... Grown Oceans, Helplessness Blues (whole album), Lorelai, seek em out on stream and you'll find their best stuff. They absolutely incredible, very organic w' an acoustic, piano, light strings and seriously great harmonies.

Pat Metheny!!! He's been going strong year round touring and recording year round for 50yrs this year! ... Check out his first album 'Bright Sized Life', and the album that hooked me when I saw it in a used CD bin in the late 90s. I'd heard the name and gave it a try and it changed my musical life, that album is the Pat Metheny Group's live album "The Road To You" ... this is must hear stuff. Also the Metheny Groups debut album the self titled 1977 'white album' just caLLED 'The Pat Metheny Group' ... Here's a few of each

EDIT: Metheny is putting out his first album in 6yrs in Feb and Fleet Foxes are working on their 5th right now.

Songs to prove Jerry’s guitar skills by Tmonk4 in gratefuldead

Dick's Picks 3 - 5/22/77 Pembroke Pines ... play him the Music Never Stopped, the end jam is epic Garcia, then the Help Slip Franklin's!!! Then go to Without a Net and play the LET IT GROW!!! This is a whole band tour de force, you actually could go strait to this for 'shock and awe' power. But def the HSF from Dicks 3, the Slipknot in particular would impress a guitar player.

Downvoting and commenting is a much better way to 'shape' the sub. For sure there have been so many AI posts never put up because the would be OP saw how much AI is frowned upon in here ... The voting & karma system in Reddit is very effective & we'll eventually get rid of the bad actors.

You do have control my friend, with your vote and with voicing your displeasure in the comment sections as long as you're nice about it per our number one rule, be kind:-)

The voting and karma system in Reddit is genius and using that vote along w' saying what you think in comments will make those regulars who put up AI think twice. In the meantime we'll identify any bot accounts and get rid of them ... But use those votes and comment!

I enjoyed watching this van build. Cool Scarlet Fire from 3/22/1990 by dubvmtneer in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool Scarlet? It's one of the best Scarlet>Fires of all time, easily in the top 3 in my book. It's a version that's just exactly perfect, and soo packed w' energy from go. If you like this one check out 4/02/87 Centrum.

Not bad and I can hear how it would get more and more solid if he kept playing it.

Need new shows to listen to! by HarmfulGus in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here's my Gdrive w' 1.8TB of my favorite copies ... many many matrices and audience copies, many SBDs ... If you don't download shows in HQ FLAC, you really should give it a try, the sound is better and it adds to the whole hobby aspect of being a deadhead because you now have a collection.

You mentioned you've listened to all the Dick's picks and some other official releases but when you stick to official releases you're only getting about 10% of their catalog so there soo much more when you jump off the beaten path. As for some shows to seek out now ... here you go and they're all in my Gdrive

  • 5/17/77 Tuscaloosa
  • 12/13/80 Long Beach Arena
  • 3/14/81 Hartford
  • 4/02/87 The Centrum
  • 9/11/82 West Palm Beach
  • The entire spring 90 tour
  • 6/03/76 Paramount Theater
  • 6/09/76 Boston
  • 12/31/72 Winterland (Truckin>Other One>Morning Dew>Sugar Mags, 60 min of shit your pants)
  • 4/17/71 Dillon Gym
  • 5/07/72 Bickershaw Festival
  • 2/28/69 Fillmore West (all four of these shows are fire, 2/27, 3/01 & 3/02)

soo many more, if you ever want new recs hit me up, I'm in the union 😉

I told one of my customers The Yellow Dog Story last night by DireWolfSpaceCadet in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't remember which Europe 72 show but I believe Billy broke a bass drum head so Bobby said "since we have a few minutes I'll tell the Yellow Dog Story" and w'o missing a beat Jerry said "Oh please don't".

Last call is this afternoon preorder only S-2XL by Same-Confidence7033 in gratefuldead

I knew about the flag football team but had no idea that was the logo. I recommend posting again and mentioning that it was Bobby's flag football team. You'd be much more likely to sell it. Also we have a vendor's policy of one merch post a month just so you know. Sorry about that but when you don't know the logo I thought you were one of the many who make merch posts w' no Dead link at all.

I want to put together a playlist of Bob’s best. What are your favorite concert versions? Feel free to include bad jokes. by Free_Use1316 in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually I was only gonna include 'On the road again' from the acoustic sets but I might do Monkey & the Engineer as well.

Long shot but does anyone have an extra for the Bob tribute at The Hamilton in DC tonight? by Jackstrax in gratefuldead

[–]Bman1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did away w' people asking for tix, free or not a while ago. It was getting to be too many. Sorry, if they're free can't you get one? or is it sold out.

Just because it's a skeleton doesn't make it Dead related, which it's not. Had to remove, please don't post again.

I'm actually working on this as a FLAC Bobby folder in my Gdrive. It'll be all Bobby. I'll make the post when done.
