READY, SET...
...GO!
got some extra time today
so let's get a nice long one started
Coliseum Stadium on june 8 1974
Go RAMS!!
1/24,30/70 & 2/1/70
Back to our regular scheduled program after the WE of madness!
Phew, I’m all tuckered out from so much fu bol and accessories lol
RE: Firsty/ FB: I’d say it was hardly over at half 1stshow…and the Donkeys should be proud of what they accomplished, and though it kills me to say it ; ) their only going to get better. Hell, maybe KC will finally have some real divisional competition! Maybe next year is now real and not just a pacifier!
We were pretty nervous until those last couple of TDs, but like Romo said, these games usually separate the more fully established etc from the up and coming upstarts. Which seemed the case all around for most part.
Yeah the Commandos won, but I’ve been watching them go under the radar all year, sorta the new underdog like the mighty lye ooons a couple years ago!
Don’t see them upsetting D but…”that’s why they play the game”
Thought GB might do it as well, as they’ve also been gettin er done most of the year, but didn’t seem to show up yesterday? Same with the Bolts, no offense but I don’t like Houston for multiple reasons and frankly in that weak ass division didn’t fully deserve to be there, imho, but they did look more consistent than I’ve seen them play in weeks and the Bolts had none of their mojo of late, so… biggest eye opener so far was probably the VIKS loss to the Lye Oon? Not so much that they lost, but how…
Which makes tonight’s game Berry interesting…will the Viks and Sam I am be able to get their mojo working on the Rams, and will the Rams be able to keep theirs rising as they’ve been doing end of season?
No offense, but I’m hoping VIKS kick butt tonight, next week and get huge rematch game with Lions! Though I wouldn’t be able to root for one over the other as I like them both so much lol
In the lesser of two weevils competition, I’ll hold my nose and hope Houston shows up as KC is anything but invincible, and I’m guessing I’m not the only one over the leagues blatant “support” to milk another dynasty etc
Only good thing about PM is we don’t have to hear about Brady so much lol…actually think Tom does a good job analyzing.
obviously I hope Bills win, and if they all show up for all sixty minutes etc, can, but chances are that ain’t gonna happen and Baltimore is looking scary good and isn’t showing that I’m gonna choke vibe that’s plagued em last few years!
In the end, hopefully it’ll be a great game, the better team will win and without any BS help from the league/officials!
Uncle T: Rams? figured you’d be a Birds fan?
just send the Chiefs packing
whoever can do that gets my vote
does anyone think refs will help the Chiefs?
"achoo!"
"PASS INTERFERENCE, schmuck in the 7th row! Automatic first down....oh, phuket, CHIEFS WIN!"
Sports....blech
(I still watch, tho...)
Old & In The Gray
Not quite the same but still great. Vassar was on over 200 albums and starred or featured in 40 or more. Bio said he didn't read music. Taught himself to fiddle at age seven. How did I never notice he was on Wake of the Flood?
Oro - Yeah that was actually a couple of TDs later in the 3rd quarter. So many little mistakes that cost Denver big in time of possession. Like dropping every pass that hit you square in the hands. Not diving for the 1st down instead of taking it to the sideline (not 2 min. drill so it wasn't to stop the clock). It was 3 downs and punt all day. Highlight was the fake punt though it was a floater with a semi-circle arc, thought it would never come down, lol. Bet the punter doesn't practice throwing much. And then they didn't capitalize on that 1st down either. We got away with the blatant end zone holding that the ref had to come over to Allen on the bench to apologize for. But then they scored on that drive anyway. Then Doh, Denver's field goal attempt nails the post squarely and drops like a rock. But it was the first whole game I've watched all year so there's that. Best of luck in the rest of the playoffs. The Bills have some real talent.
Cheers
MUSIC ROCKS...

To find fault is easy; to do better may be difficult......
Hey rockers!
Right now I'm listening to The Cash Box Kings. Before that was The Cadillac Kings. Both worth a listen. And no, I didn't fall down and hit my head........
Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live......
Rock on,
Doc
The disembodied spirit is immortal, there is nothing of it that can grow old or die, but the embodied spirit sees death on the horizon as soon as its day dawns......
2/2,5,7/70 today
Snuck the short but hot 2/4/70 in at end of day yesterday.
Not the best recording but not bad and worth it, same with 2/1, starts out weird with Bob way out in front of the mix lol…for anyone who bitches Bobs never loud enough! Eventually settles in and another good show from that run.
I’d heard the fine 31 before via Doc so skipped, same with 2/6…
Uncle T: true dat…all of it!
What’ll he be reading this game lol
Cars?…like my old biker neighbor BITD used to say “if it’s got tits or tires bound to drive a man crazy” which sounds like something Pig would say lol
I’m surprised I never turned him onto Pig…
Tiss why I love the dead so…girls heartbreak, cars trouble, and sports usually leaves you down and/or greasy feeling, while with the Dead ya always won!
you must really consider the circus...
...'cause it just might be your kind of zoo

2/11/70a & 2/12/70
Onward!
Edit: 2/11/70 holy crap!
Not terrible but not great recording, including bad DS splice, but hey it is what it is, and the music is killer! Not sure if this included both shows, think so?
But man there is some “primo” dead here, and the jams musically, if not sonically we’re amazing: Duane, Greg, and perhaps most impressive Peter Green! Another sweet DS, splice and all, with it sounds like Phil trying to lobby hard for masons, but the mob prevails and a jam is born, and Lovelight was not boring lol.
“If yer gonna through dope up here, throw it where we can find it” lol
I think PF, it’s more it hasn’t met the test of time so well. I remember BITD when Live Dead was something completely different, even from the other limited dead we had. Back then the screaming and histrionics and all that greasy goodness was like from elixir from Mars…now? And it’s pretty repetitive etc, That and we kinda know it inside out after gulp, almost six decades…
Familiarity brings contempt ? lol
2/13/70
Wow, whether it was 2/12 Unganos or 2/13a, it’s a recommended listen.
Good recording though the levels aren’t always balanced and perhaps a bit Bob centric? But now imma gonna have to keep Truckin’ on with all of 2/13 since I’ve never heard the whole show, and well, I don’t feel like doing anything else lol
So WTH…
Edit: recommend the Miller for 2/13/70. It has the same set as “2/12”, plus the rest of the night, and definitely sounds better than what I listened to.
the mob doesn't prevail, Oro
the MOB RULES!
according to Black Sabbath, that is
Oro & the PO Box
I had a thought, since ups will only deliver to an address. Why not make your address the address of your post office.
Oro
1313 post office street
somewhere, co, 77777
PO Box 5
Would this be delivered to the post office and they would see the box number?
Just a thought.
edit - you could try a test run,,,, send something to yourself via ups.
Thanks Big D
But don’t think that’ll do it. Since it’s a contract thing, I’m assuming USPS would refuse any trucks from UPS? And for our region, the handoff is in Denver, but even so, if a UPS truck pulls up to our PO now, they won’t accept it…
Really, if they just tell us in time, we could have the proper address used.
And sorry if I gave you especially nightmares…”packages of music,
sent back?…whatta ya mean it all got sent back….Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”

Listening to 7/17/76 yesterday and thinking wow that space out of O1 pt 1 finds its way into a serious Sand Castles and Glass Camels vibe. That whole jam sequence is beautiful.
2/27/70 & 3/1/70
Train kept a rollin…
Boy you guys make it hard to stay on track: those are some of my favs!
Edit: 2/27 yowsa, don’t think I’ve heard an Easy Wind quite like that!
So Many Roads box
I've been really enjoying this the last couple of days. Such a great job on this!

OSF should pick up the pace and release the Sonic Journals at a faster pace.
And what about Bear’s Sonic Banana Box?
When do we get to know the contents of that?

I can hear some very quiet pops and clicks. Very nostalgic, lol. Sound is very good, must have nailed the levels. I like to run my Teac V-5RX tape deck regularly to keep things running well.

7/16/76 - Orpheum
DaP 18 bonus disc - from Set II Playing in the Band > Cosmic Charlie, Spanish Jam > Drums > The Wheel > Playing reprise. High Time, Sugar Magnolia
Need to circle back on that 2/27/70 after listening to that pure distilled high test Easy Wind. Listened to a chunk of that Detroit '71 show a few weeks ago after I discovered it had the second to last St. Stephen in the pre-hiatus Keith years. Barely touched it in that first fall tour and then dropped it. I really dug what I heard from that show and also probably should circle back on that also.
Love that Orpheum Bonus Disc as well ...
If this year's big box is +/- a 30 Trips Redux, then I hope 07.18.76 is the 'tentpole' show that DL and cohorts select for the good 'ol bicentennial year ...
Cheers!
NO 7/18/76 lol
Only cause I have a really good copy from uncle Jethro, so selfishly I’d rather get something else from that fine run ; )
I LOVE that show!
Not Sure BC?
My cousin got it off of A and I just copied it, not sure if any info was included?
Guessing a FM recording…it sounds pretty darn good for not being “official”
Condolences to any Lions fans out there
As Skeletor would say...
"Remember! Odds are that your team's season will end in disappointment!!!"
7/18/76
Oro - there are references on SHF to 7/18/76 having been recorded to multitrack but don't remember if that's speculative or definitive and thought you or someone else here might have some insight. I think the circulating sources are pre-FM. If there's a multitrack not going to be a Dave's and also probably not part of a box?
edit - just yesterday evening 7/18/76 came up again on SHF as a multitrack - can't find any outside reference to that nor can I find where that attribution came from in the forum. Interestingly not shot down by Bertrando who is part of the discussion.

Hey Oro, how 'bout them Bills!
(and happy anniversary of your 1st show)
A couple of great games yesterday.
I love watching them play football in bad conditions. So old school, like before domed stadiums. A real test of talent (and ability to not get hurt!).
BC & Firsty
Did someone say multitrack!
Hmmm, now you have me intrigued?
I’ll try to get ahold of my cousin and see if he can find the CDs, and if there’s any info on it…a multi of that show would be totally RJ!
Speaking of, hey Firsty, did you see the Stars AVs game?
When Duchene scored that sweet first goal Ryker quoted the great RJ with a modified “top shelf where mama hides the Peanut butter cookies” lol
But yeah, those FB games where pretty good. Rams had plenty o chances but couldn’t get er done, and the Birds had those three big time plays which makes any team hard to beat this time of year…totally dug the snow! Not as much in Bu faf, but still a cold, classic “Lambo” kind of game. Bills played well in the first, had some help from Lamar, Ravens readjusted well in the second, and gave themselves a fighting chance throughout, and well, then the drop, which wouldn’t have necessarily decided the game if caught, but it certainly did by not.
As a long time Bills fan I know that horrible “agony of defeat” feeling all too well, so condolences and kudos to the fans, they had a great year again and I’ll bet they’ll be back next year knocking on the door.
Of course awesome to win, but now we’re really nervous especially after watching how bad the leagues willing to cheat…
Edit: speaking of stadiums, those crazy mafia bastards didn’t want a dome on the new stadium going in across the street! Lol
