NEMD Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

Hey ole friend. Hope you’re doing well. You coming down south for phish? I’ll be in Alpharetta and possibly Nashville
 
I was very pleasantly surprised by the Dead & Co show in Atlanta on Friday. First time seeing them. Would do again

they are loaded up sat at alpine and I am once again excited.. rolling grass seats for 45.. butt I never get worried about being cheap when that soundboard is so close. calms my nervs

EDIT:

Decent show.. glad I went and was happy w 45$ tickets. Bobby bitch slapped his mike as I think it was malfunctioning. Rolled Standing right as a cloud veiled moon broke out, but althea took the show imho.

This is one of my absolute favorite versions of Shakedown Street ever. Jerry was in his Stephen Hawking phase yet played great.

The Dead at their best...

For first ten years of loving this music every show I went to I wanted a Morning Dew in the ballad slot(and still have no problem with it) but these days give me a Wharf Rat. It's the best chance I have at crying that night. One of Hunter's best.

This show is best known for its Cold Rain and Snow but helluva Rat. '73-'80 is my lucky number 7 of consecutive years and since '75 was essentially a year off I'll replace it with '91. Love the MIDI(specially that Bobby crunch) love the Bruce and even love VINNY

You wanna Rat, I'll show you one!(God damn those Jerry opening licks is a family friendly opium den
