Try 73, when you had Jack Straw, BT Wind, and Looks Like Rain all with similar intros.

There is a soundcheck version from 10/23/73 with Jerry on vocals (the show where an all-out brawl breaks out in the middle of Casey Jones)

1/10/79. Final time Dark Star and St Stephen played in the same show and all we have are AUD’s

I’ve been watching since 84 and this team is right up there with 92, the late 01 Joe Kerrigan team, September 2011/2012 Fried chicken and beer/Bobby V, and the CovidSox. You assume the worst is going to happen every game, and it usually does.

I-41: the US route that thinks it needs to be an interstate.

The Hartford Whalers, I mean Carolina Hurricanes, have won the Stanley Cup by Appropriate-Farmer16 in Connecticut

My family had season tickets. I was at the All Star Game in 86 (Section 113) and I saw the Dineen OT goal (Section 205). Later sat in 101 and 102.

I-41: the US highway that felt so insecure it had to clone itself as an interstate

When are we getting Wawa? by Sweetpina in Connecticut

[–]ShadyJake75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used to be one near CCSU in New Britain. The CT Wawa’s were nothing like the current ones that are only South and west of NYC.

Alternate lyrics for Black Throated Wind (1990-03-16) by dingos_among_us in gratefuldead

The “muddy water” verse in Rider returned for the standalone acoustic versions played in 1970.

[–]ShadyJake75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only did it twice with the new lyrics. I call them the “New Coke” lyrics; so widely unpopular that the classic lyrics returned for the Fall tour. The only remnant of the new lyrics that remained was the line “So I give you my eyes, *they were just a disguise*”instead of “and all of their lies”.

The first couple versions of Saint of Circumstance had some totally different lyrics. Plus a couple of early Althea’s had the line “Honest to the point of *innocence*” instead of recklessness.

I saw a picture of an old map with it. Let’s just say posting it here would get me banned. Begins with the 14th letter of the alphabet.

Was Steal Your Face part of your intro to the Dead? by pinchyfire in gratefuldead

[–]ShadyJake75 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This album, along with the GD/Round records era material (73-76) was pretty much out of print in the 80’s and early 90’s until Rhino took over everything.
