Nephew's wedding --- my 2 1/2 year old daughter is the flower girl -- should be fun.

Fresh Air had a nice review of the record on yesterday's show. I only have their Twin Cinema release - need to check this new one out.

Reckless has a nice website -- just before you leave from Europe - you can see what they currently have in stock, click any items you may want and click "in-store" pick up, and they will hold them for you. Also like Heartbreak said, they can probably order anything they don't have in stock. I know I have seen the below used in their stores.

Looks like he was the one who filed, too.

From the Chicago perspective your best bet will be a used record store - like a Reckless Records or perhaps Laurie's Planet of Sound in Lincoln Sqaure may have some stuff. Sadly, there are not too many record stores left. There are some big box stores like Best Buy, that may have newer releases --- but even there, it's spotty at best. I don't think you will have much luck finding box sets in Chicago --- could be wrong though. I think all the Dave's Picks and Big Box Sets (like the 90 one) are mostly available via Dead.net.

I heard the local gov't was trying to block their liquor license - glad they didn't succeed. Though a alcohol free fest might be interesting.

Did the Fest every figure out their liquor license issue?

I seen performers with teleprompters blow lyrics. Teleprompters/notebooks don't bother me. What's up with your lead singer - not very cool backing out of a gig.

I'll wait for it to hit the library system. Last night I listened to a Rolling Thunder boot (New Orleans 5/3/76) --- T Bone sang a fantastically, awful version of Werewolves of London. Traveling around on that tour must have been a trip.

You guys have been a bit slow down there - only spotted two boots thus far (8/9 and 8/10).

Not sure if I caught 'Live Love' or not --- the vocals are their strong suit --- playing, too, though.

Yeah we made it there --- I was by the stage area (towards the back) from the start up to the point where they played Squeeze Box, then we all went to the park area and kid's tent. It was entertaining - it looked like the guy who played electric guitar in the Brown Eye video (and played some great licks) was playing bass, yesterday. I was hoping for some of that guitar playing --- but I guess it being a festival they went all acoustic (with the exception of the bass). Food was good, too.

Did tune in and heard the crosstalk between you and Rosie before the two Dylan Tunes - that Wanda Jacksons' Thunder was a great version (never heard that one before), also the Staples Singers version of Hard Rain (though I think I heard that before). I chuckled when you put Rosie on the spot regarding WDBX's phone number.

That sucks - hope all is well enough and not too,too bad. Was really looking forward to the St. Louis show.

Below is another site regarding Garcia's gear and such--I don't think I ever been to this site before today - pretty extensive. http://www.wald-electronics.com/

Yeah - that Muscle Shoals was a good one. Always wondered why the Stones recorded at Muscle Shoals Studio, rather than the more established (at the time) and famous Fame, I posted the question at the Hoffman board and below was the response. Makes sense - Rick Hall was bit of a task master to say the least --- which I am not faulting him - he produced some great stuff.

Think we are gonna head to this on Sunday and catch the show, since this may be the closet place to the southern burbs as there going to get. If you see guy in a yellow shirt with two kids and wife walking around that will me. Being mostly a vegetarian, looking forward to the food offerings. Haven't been to Naperville in ages.

I think Winston was being a bit sarcastic. Anyway from today CNN Ticker. It will really ramp up again when Clinton declares. http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/06/politics/benghazi-select-committee/index.html

It looks like Garcia has beard in that picture above. I guess some of the show was released on Dick's Pick 31

Last night, I listened to the latest Dave's Pick - good stuff, of course. After first listen, the highlights for me: Cumberland Blues; Jerry plays great on Me and My Uncle and Big River - great licks; enjoyed the Casey Jones, too. Need to listened to the He's Gone through Brokedown Palace again - it was getting late in the evening. Haven't listened to the filler yet.

I think Duane just happen to spot one of his dealers walking down the street, so he hurried up and ran up to him and ran back for the photo - hence the laughter on Gregg and the "cat just ate the pet mouse" look on Duane.

I am the opposite - still waiting on my ABB set. I ordered Blu-Ray and they mistakenly sent CD's. The CDs showed up last Thursday - I almost "mistakenly" opened it, just so I could listen to the set over the weekend - but opted out.

Got mine today - won't be to be able to listened to though until later in the week.

Couple of small issues for me during the 1st set, too - but nothing too bad. Thought the bits between sets were pretty funny --- ending a show early because they came up with a cool Tweet was pretty funny. I never purchased a Phish (or any band) webcast/stream before --- definitely will need to look into that in the future.
