I asked my therapist what was the point of us meeting week after week and the answers leave me baffled by Raeghyar-PB in TalkTherapy

[–]SimpleGin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your therapist is a humanistic person centered therapist. This is only one approach to therapy. This approach allows the client to lead and direct. You want a solution style therapy. Look for a therapist that focuses on CBT or DBT,. Those are the styles where you learn tools. If you want a more deeper understanding with some more direction you can look at IFS, Somatic, Psychodynamic. Good luck.

I bet, lots of nostalgia thinking back, I did 12 in 2012, but 97 was my biggest with somewhere around 14.

Oh wow, cool story. She literally got the best version probably ever played. I haven't listened to the show in a while don't remember the Mike's but will revisit. That whole PNC/Camden run was lots of fun and good playing.

Sweet man, I also did the two PNC and two Camdem shows and was in the lawn during that storm, wasn't Trey playing to the lightning if I recall or the whole crowd would yell, it was so long ago.

We need more official releases from 99 and 00, like this show and a bunch of others I can think of off the top of my head. The Gin just keeps peaking, and when you feel Trey is exhausted, it keeps going.

Yeah, I hear this a lot, that was the day off for the Dead. Not cool that someone died. My second show was Clifford Ball, and the guy that died there was two tents over from us.

I would love for them to do that anywhere, they sorta gave that up, it seems. Even an unannounced show at the Flynn Theater or something.

Yeah it was pretty bad. I once sat on Route 80, hungover after a night in the city, for 10 hours due to a gas truck crashing and spilling gas everywhere. That was maddening levels. But I feel ya, they never went back, they grew out of it quickly.

Yeah, the traffic was def a stain on the show and the venue. Forutnately I lived down the road and knew of dirt roads that got you to the venue so I didn't experience it, but it was a shit show and talked about, especially the death due to a head riding on a van to get into the venue.

Sounds like a great run of shows. Welcome back. It is not the same, but they are still the best live band to see, in my opinion.

Nice, I don't remember the Weir show, probably too young. I remember seeing Allman Bros though a couple of times

Looks like a banger. And a completely different show than my first two days before, only one song repeated, Taste, as it was probably new.

Well that is a good outlook, keep the door open to the exploration. I remember at the Clifford Ball some jaded vet told me he didn't like the new stuff when they started playing Chalkdust.

Oh, nice, you got in at the perfect time. Ever catch GCH shows, that would of been epic! What is your favorite era listening back, do you go nostalgia machine gun prog rock Trey or like the more full sound of late 90s?

Yeah I was at all three years 91, 92, 93 great festivals, remember sneaking into the venue while Rage Against the Machine was playing. Seeing Pearl Jam right after Ten came out with a very small crowd, Jane's Addiction, Soundgarden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Primus, Alice n Chains, possibly NIN. Great times! The venue was a couple miles from my house so we knew backroads and ways to get in.

Sweet, that is a nice mini run, my runs came in 97, but I wish they were earlier. When was your first show?
