Almost as soon as the Fare Thee Well shows were announced, folks started planning to meet in Chicago. They met. They connected. Things were never the same. And now, further! Or maybe Furthur.
- mkavJoined:The Sphere
wow...that captcha almost made me not logon!
Anyway, I'm going to the Sphere for the 8/9 show. I was not going to due to $, time and I was generally disappointed the last time I saw D&C (Dallas May 23...NO energy in that show)
After watching YouTube videos and seeing the videos, feeling the vibe, well...I just HAD to dance.
Anyone else? - Graceful_DeadJoined:looks like I'm back...
and so happy to see Mkav, Oat Jeff, Geo and GOB!
Oh, the memories!
I have begun working on a book manuscript about Deadheads and have some thought to share about how to classify the newer generation that acts like us but wishes not to be called Deadheads.
Either, they associate that with older people, or they are more generally into "Jam" and not exclusive to the Dead
- ObeahJoined:Guys 'n Spheres
I'm not sure Mary was actually talking to me, but I'll jump in anyway.
I feel like I am going to regret it if I don't go - the Sphere 'n Bob Weir! And yet my heart isn't in it. A large part of that is about my sobriety - Vegas and I have rarely played nicely together on that score, and things feel fragile for me right now. Even though it's months away, I think it's wiser if I do the couch tour again instead. And honestly THAT makes me happy just to think about it, so despite the misgivings about regrets, I feel like it's the right call for me.
- JeffSmithJoined:Earth to Boulder! . . . On to the Gorge
Hey "Crickets". . . Holy shitoly what an amazing 3 days at Folsom. As usual, D&Co took it up a few notches up from under Boulder's Flatirons at Folsom. And there were a full moons, double rainbows, cooling rain sprinkles (well, one intermission replacing "weather delay"). Dave Matthews sat in to end set 2 on the final night. And after Boulder banned 4th of July fireworks, D&Co et al trumped with hundreds of lighted, color-changing drones forming the Earth which morphed into several Stealie variations and more during drums/space, and then returned after the show as bears reminding us to "Please Be Kind" as we left the show and returned to Earth.
The baton now passes to Lisa and Chuck at the upcoming Gorge shows. Hang on.
