okay thanks so much!
more anecdotally, you might want to check out the topic If It Wasn't Your First Show... in which people talk about their more life-changing concerts.
Go to the Grateful Dead collection. Sort by download count. The shows that have been downloaded the most are a pretty accurate picture of really good dead shows. There is also some serious commentary there.
I have a question: I am new to these forums and I was wondering where I would go to pose a question. I am semi-new to listening to shows so which forum would i go to ask people for recommendations for good shows? Or so I could ask various questions about shows and stuff?
Thanks ya'll!!
in the technical questions topic in the tapers section. I suspect you'll get an answer there in short order.
Can you answer my question? On archive.org when I download the mp3 files how do I access it on Windows Media Player? When I try to extract it, there are two copies of all the files and deleting one will delete the other. Is there a way to do this?
HI EVERYONE, I'M A DEAD HEAD FOR 35 YRS. AND I DON'T KNOW WHY IT TOOK ME THIS LONG TO BECOME A MEMBER. SEEN THE DEAD 30-40 TIMES ALL WITH JERRY, SINCE JERRY'S PASSING I JUST COULDN,T BRING MYSELF TO COME AND SEE THE "NEW GRATEFUL DEAD". I THINK IT IS TIME TO COME AND SEE A SHOW, I'VE BEEN HEARING NOTHING BUT GOOD STUFF ABOUT THE DEAD SO I DIDN'T CHECK THE TOUR DATES YET. WHEN I DO, I DECIDED I AM GOING TO A GRATEFUL DEAD SHOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, CAN'T WAIT, { "I'M BACK" } AND CAN.T WAIT TILL I SEE THE BAND SO, GIDDY UP MATES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
out here on the West Coast, Bill and his style were pretty hard-wired into the scene, so I'm probably just used to it more. Hell, at BAM our softball team played BGP's, and I am here to tell you Bill did not tolerate losing... Not that we were much of a threat to the bluecoat team.
Bill had a pretty strong sense of doing things right, however that presented itself in the moment, and that encompassed everything from breakfast at dawn to this particular rant. He expected you to do right, he expected himself to do right. And he certainly delivered the goods better than anyone else before or since.
I forget at what point I first heard that tape, but it sure struck me at the time that it said something that needed to be said a lot more often. With Bill's customary lack of diplomacy, but eh.
