I assumed there was going to be at least a 2 disc version --- that stinks. Probably a ploy to get the collectors to spring for the 6 cd set - knowing that 1 cd version is never going to do it for them. I need to dig through my hard drive to see how much I have of this already.

Yeah -- hoping the price will drop down a bit.

More sad news about Betts -- hopefully he pulls through ok. https://jambands.com/news/2018/09/19/dickey-betts-critical-head-injury/

Listening to 9/20/70 yet again, today ---- one of my favorite shows. The acoustic set is exactly perfect. https://archive.org/details/gd1970-09-20.140664.sbd.boswell.smith.miller.clugston.flac1644

Sounds like something AC DC would have used for a deluxe box set version of If You Want Blood You've Got It. I like it.

I went for the 2 disc of the 65-66 Bootleg and I have been kinda kicking myself since. I was hoping my library system have sprung for the 6 cd set, but so far they have not. I did the 79-81 complete set. Skipped the Basement set - but tI am able to get the 6 cd set from my library, when I feel like listening to it.

Thx - Just put it on hold -- don't think I ever read it before. Blood on the Tracks is probably my favorite record of his -- guess I need to see how much the thing is going to cost before I decide.

I never had a problem, "When Push Comes to Shove" - good tune.

They played Perfect Strangers and Knocking at your Back Door, last month in Tinley. Must admit, I don't I have ever listened the the whole record before.

It was something different, at least. Fit the theme of the night, too.

Pretty cool stuff --- nice to see that Phil (and Bob) still supporting Head Count. Nice version of Shakedown, too --- I can see Chris Robinson doing great with this take of the tune -- Nicki Bluhm was great, though. "Shakedown Street" + "Get By" | Phil Lesh & Friends Ft.

This past summer, I finally gotten around to visit the area that will be impacted --- we noticed all the evacuation signs on the roads and the gates on the the highway exits. The oldest kid asked what they were for. The town (Folly Beach S.C) where we stayed at for a week has been ordered to evacuate and they are not even it the true center of the path. Great area - hopefully everybody stays safe and the landscape/property isn't altered too badly.

Yeah - the start of the Bertha was tough. So far, I only got through the 1st two disc's of the 1st show. The mix definitely gets better -- I think Billy sounds great through out and Keith, too.

UPS did circles to get the set to me, yesterday --- haven't listened to it, yet --- but they really outdid themselves with the packaging. Great looking set. Even my 9 year old was impressed.

The White Sox have been been playing pretty great since the break -- this is a huge blow.

Now it's being listed as $79 --- I hate when they do that.

Got my shipping email overnight -- it states it should be shipping to my house tomorrow - which might be problematic, since my street will be closed due to our village's fest in the park across the street from me. Guess I will need to find my local UPS place or I guess I could just stand and the corner and flag down UPS trucks all day long... Currently listening to VInce's first show (9.7.90) --- from the get go his board didn't sound all that great.

Saw a show during that Summertooth/Up tour, too, in St. Louis.

I haven't gotten one either - though I don't worry about such things with Dead.net -- I have received shipping notices on items that I bought after I have received them.

Looks pretty good to me.

That was fun listen - thx

Yeah - i can hear some similarities rhythmically --- Gotta Serve Somebday came out a few years earlier. (Recorded May, 79) -- West LA first appeared in '82, I think. Both great tunes. Dylan has been playing Gotta Serve Somebody again recently - - he changed a bit of lyrics and completely changed it, rhythmically.

Thanks for the above -- a nice read. I skipped the Dead/Dylan 2003 tour when it came to the Chicago area -- mostly because it was held down at the Joliet race track. I think the stage was blown down, the day prior to the gig. In hind site, I wish I would have went. Many of my friends went and enjoyed it.

Yeah - I don't revisit doc's too often - so I know it will just sit on the shelf, plus I caught it when it as on Amazon. I'll wait until the bonus stuff is out there and watch it then. About a week until the Pacific box is released - definitely looking forward to that...
