Official Grateful Dead Thread

I really regret not ever seeing the Dead when they came through DFW several times. They played SMU, TCU, Memorial Auditorium right across the street from where I was working at the time. In '69 I took $4 I had and bought Aoxomoxoa, which I could not figure out what the heck was supposed to be about. I was a high school band trumpet player, and I took that record back to FedMart and got a refund! Did not listen to any Dead for years, turned off, until Terrapin Station came out. Had I known what they did on stage I would have been there for all of them! Making up for lost time now. I have well over 100 Dead concerts on CD.

Outstanding!

The 3/18/90 Hartford CT show from the box... I've played that one more now than the Branford show. Listening to it again now, just started Stagger Lee after Little Red Rooster...

I guess the David Lemieux live chat that I forgot about earlier today must have announced Dave's 12.

And this should mean the subscribers will be getting theirs pretty soon!
 
Just had to order a backup copy ... or two :D

How many hours until this one sells out...:scratch2:

And I got the email announcement after I read your post and was done ordering. Time lag!
 
Pretty sure the subscriptions come from the total of 14,000. My subscription CD sets are numbered within the total number for that year.
 
Well, THAT didn't take long!

Got my order in last night, dumb question but do you also get the download files too?

As to what I'm listening to:

Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain (Vinyl) Solea

If I understand it correctly the boys really dug this and in an ode to Miles came up with "Spanish Jam". I can kind of hear the resemblance, FWIW a great jazzy "Spanish Jam" can be found on 4/17/82 2nd set Hartford CC and another killer version 6/23/74 Miami Jai-Alai Fronton that the segues seamlessly into a killer US Blues.
 
Thanks for the tip! I just ordered Miles Davis Sketches of Spain (50th Anniversary Enhanced 2 CD Legacy Edition) on Amazon from a seller in England, cheap.

As to the download with CD purchase I can't answer that.
 
Nice 1990 show: Dick's Picks, Vol. 9: Madison Square Garden, New York, NY, 9/16/90

I have an extra for sale if you are looking.

The 2/11/70 Fillmore East show has Duane Allman on "Spanish Jam." Good stuff, both the ABB set and the GD set.

Enjoying the "weird" vibe on Dave's #12. Not your typical '77 show. "Stella Blue" is sublime.
