Page 1 of this thread...Dark Star. I couldn't believe it either!! :)
Some other tunes of note mentioned, that are some of my FAVORITES:
Black Peter
Stella Blue (Jerry's FAVORITE original song)
Death Don't Have No Mercy (but not because of boredom - because of the "heebie-jeebies" LOL!)
Friend Of The Devil
Someone else mentioned Row Jimmy on Page 3 of this thread! I'm not alone! I LOVE the song - that's the funny thing. BUT, as I said - they RARELY hit a good one. They'd lose count in the jams, or it was just overall uninspired. I saw ONE good one out of 5 or so live. I only hit 33 GD shows overall from 87-95.

That's the way it's been in town
Ever since they tore the juke box down
Two bit piece don't buy no more
Not so much as it done before
who said darkstar???? some of us waited our whole life for that!! and playing??? i mighta gotten up!! but thats no time for a break : )
I know, I know you guys were just playin'....just find it funny that Row Jimmy (of all tunes) got ANY reaction, rather than the BIG guns, like Dark Star & Playin'.

Pappy just playin man. I didn't care so much for Day Job either, just like grdaed said to each hiss own. I used to leave my seat all the time anyway go get lost in the halls for a while, especially in places that had speakers in the halls. Goe melt in the light for a while. Come to think of never really stayed in one place was always wanderering around.
Get back home where you belong
And don't you run off no more
broken heart don't hurt so bad
ain't got half what you thought you had!
Quickly - as I don't want to usurp the thread on Row Jimmy or other songs...
BUT - RARELY did they NOT get lost in the solos of this song. I saw several versions at the shows I attended. They hit it ONCE (and I didn't have to go pee!) and I enjoyed it. IMO, Jerry's weakest 1st set tune....other than Day Job (but they were done w/ that tune by the time I hopped aboard).
What I can't understand is I get crap for Row Jimmy, but others didn't for saying DARK STAR & PITB jams?!!! THAT WAS the GD - jamming & exploring - getting "out there!" ;)
'Sall good...
I LOVED the blues tunes...all of 'em.

Red Rooster or Walkin Blues, these were also great times for smoking too.

I'm a huge Weir fan, but....
Queen Jane, Eternity....
Phrom Phil...
Wave To The Wind

Other than that - I'd hold it as long as possible!!!

Me, I love Dark Star but have some friends that aren't that fond of it. Just like I love the stuff from the 60's especially Pig raps, Anthem of the Sun stuff too. But those same friends don't dig that stuff either. But Row Jimmy was loved, Ok Pappy I'll stop man. FUN,FUN,FUN!
