Wow - that is pretty bad and yes, wrong. Actually, it's a pretty much a put down.

5/7/77 was one of my first boots. One of my favorite shows.

I don't have any of their stuff, but they put on a hell of a performance at a Lollapalooza in 2007. We were on that side of the fest to see Patti Smith. who going to play after Snow Patrol, otherwise we probably wouldn't have went out of our way to catch them perform - we were glad we did. WXRT plays them a bit.

Watched Hugo last night - good flick. I guess it was a bit predictable, but the story was good. Watched it in 2D, though I have a 3D capable system, I haven't gotten around to get the glasses. It was beautifully shot.

Revisiting Phish's 10/31/10 set this morning - such a fuckin fun sounding Little Feat set - man. Below is a video of announcing the summer tour - it's pretty funny. It kinda hard believe that I haven't seen these guys since 1998. http://summer2012.phish.com/

I think you sent me that set - haven't listened to awhile. I did watch the Cabin Fever a bit ago, always an enjoyable veiwing.

Thanks Shug. I gonna grab the Fillmore and Providence shows.

Definitely worthwhile to see.

Cd's all the way through on a stereo. Shows, too - I try to make sure I have enough time to listen the entire show in one sitting.

Nice word choice, Jules - we all will have to abstain from lots of things if he gets elected. Santorum's rhetoric has been picking up steam; I am glad he is giving Romney a run for his money, though.

Does anyone have a favorite 2005 show. They have been popping up on Etree, but I haven't snagged any of them. Anyone have any suggestions?

I do have a Miller source - it looks like he used Healy's mix, so I guess I should be set - thanks. I am with you Vacant Horizon - a highlight set from 92-95 would be great. The So Many Roads set has some of the new songs on Disc 5, but an expanded set would be a nice edition. I wonder how it will sell, though. I don't think the "why don't they put out full shows" crowd would be too upset with a "highlight" set of 92-95 songs.

Do you know where the utlramix of the 4/15/90 show is still seeding at?

They released the 3/15/90 show on cd. It's still on sell over at dead.net - it's funny that they still call it a limited edition. It was released in 1997. Pricey set.

David Hoekstra has a nice piece on Out of the Past Records, 4407-09 W. Madison St. I no longer have a record player, so I never been to this place, but it sounds like it might be a worth while visit, for some. http://blogs.suntime...re_that_sp.html While in that part of town, definitely hit up the Garfield Park Conservatory - a nice place. http://www.garfield-conservatory.org/ The neighborhood may be a bit rough, just mind your surroundings.

Listening to the below show, now. I don't listened to the early 80's show as often as other era's, but this show is a good one. A nice write up appears in the Taper's book. Dwork mentioned the Railroad Blues and Playin as highlights - they definitely are. Listening to the Hunter's Trix matrix source. I tend to lean towards the 68-73 years. I guess my favorite year is 71 then it goes 72/70/69/73/68. Of course, 77 and 89 are up there, too.

Sounds pretty good.

Above is a nicely written final paragraph.

I need to buy that Gear Book. I read it, but it would be a great book to have my shelf.

http://dozin.com/jer...tar/history.htm The above is a link about Jerry's guitar through the years. The 72 set has a great essay on the Nash guitar.

I think Ladies & Gentlemen is my go to collection.

I have tuning issues with my Les Paul (just a Studio) - perhaps it's a Gibson thing in general. I would love to play the SG. I am sure one of the stores in Chicago will get one in. I haven't been to a music store in quite a while, actually the last one was Rock N Roll Vintage Inc. up on the northside (in Chicago.) I think they filmed some of IATTBYH there. Beautiful store.

Sadly, only a Justin Roberts' show at the Old Town of Folk Music, next month --- parenthood...you gotta love it. He does put on a fun show, though.

That was the 1989 run. I never did get that box-set release.
