  1. Guess that's explains why I never heard about it - hopefully the film comes about.
  2. Didn't realize that there was film being made about Bennett. The whole reddit format seems cumbersome.
  3. I think Furthur or some Dead offshoot group did this last year at a resort that wasn't really completely built yet...it was a bit of a disaster. As per usual the FAQs were funny.
  4. Work --- Archive.org (Grateful Dead) or Spotify through very shitty computer speaker. Car --- Radio/XM/Cd's --- my car has a USB port and I did buy a thumb drive, months ago - but haven't gotten around to dumping any music on it. At home, if in kitchen or outside - My Mac or a Bose SoundLink Speaker III -- my wife got the Bose speaker with "credit card points" of some sort - never would have bought it - but I am glad she got it, because it does sound pretty great for casual listening. Living room - my main system. I a capable of hooking up a hard drive to my OPPO cd/dvd player - which grea
  5. One couldn't keep the cd's in the actual box set in the last one and now this. Hopefully a library in my system orders it - thus far, none have.
  6. Regarding Sittin - I thought they did perform in Europe in 72, though I had to check and they did --- it seems that the left the tune there, though --- never played it again once they got back. Great tune. from Dead.net
  7. Link to Magnaball sound-check --- pretty interesting stuff. I guess it was performed yesterday. http://livemusicblog.com/2015/08/20/must-hear-phish-delivers-45-minutes-of-improv-magnaball-soundcheck/
  8. Listening to 8/12/15 via Phishtracks now --- sounds good. The Line is a pretty catchy tune. I know I got Fuego from the library and have it on my hard-drive - I don't think I ever gotten around to listen to the whole thing, yet.
  9. Going back and forth if I want to purchase this weekend's Magnaball webcast --- it also is being broadcasted on XM, since I already subscribe, I might just listen to that feed. I agree - they have been sounding great this summer. Listened to Junta last night - still my favorite - followed by Rift.
  10. One my favorite Wilco shows was in Kalamazoo (2005) -- great town and great crowd that night. The wife and I may have spent too much time a Bells Brewery prior to the show, though.
  11. The Moma Dance has been in my head since yesterday, so I am listening to Live Phish 17 (7/15/98 Portland OR) this morning. Lot's of Phish on Spotify - which is a great thing.
  12. Yeah - that's my biggest beef with the place - especially when you bring kids, since they can't go to the concourse if you have an upper level ticket. I think it's ridiculous. And your right the upper deck is far away from the field. You can blame the lovely Ligue family for this -- right after this father and son incident the Sox instituted this rule. http://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/20/sports/baseball-2-fans-attack-royals-coach-at-game-in-chicago.html and to fit in the thread - saw my first Sanders, 2016 bumper sticker this morning in my neighborhood -- a middle-aged white female was dri
  13. Perhaps KevinG went to the Cell before they redesign it. They did make improvements. The neighborhood is coming around a little, over the last 5-7 or so years. Still nothing like the north-side - neighborhood wise, but that's not such a bad thing. It's nice that a Metra train station was finally built on 35th, too.
  14. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/ct-mlb-home-team-sweep-20150812-story.htm Kind of surprised that this didn't happen before.
  15. Some crap head ---- he is to me what Keith Richards is to Analogman.
  16. He had the same set up (Marshal/Morgan) at the Vibes show. Pitchfork it was the two Morgans. Not sure of the other shows after Pitchfork. (Below is a video from Vibes) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsCBXA510CY
  17. I was hoping that they were going to webcast this weekend's Apline shows - but I guess they are not.
  18. Is that a whammy bar or a cord in the picture of Jerry's Travis Bean? Nice version.
  19. Keith talks about the above Wyman comments in that St. Pepper interview, too. Below is the full interview. http://www.esquire.com/entertainment/music/interviews/a36899/keith-richards-interview-0915/
  20. Yeah - his book might really set you off, then - best left on the shelf. I think Keith helped perpetuate the whole murder of Jones a bit in some of his interview over the years. I guess I wouldn't be surprised if Jones was actually murdered. I know I read one book on Jones a long while ago, but I don't remember which one.
  21. Speaking of Jones - I had the below book transferred to my library - just came in today. I don't know why you let Keith get you so cranky, A-man... your Wyman bit was funny, though.
  22. I just read through Patton Oswalt's tweets (during GOP debate) --- funny, funny stuff. http://www.salon.com/2015/08/07/patton_oswalts_live_tweeting_of_the_gop_debate_is_the_best_thing_that_happened_last_night/
  23. Jeez - he doesn't like psychedelic tinged music, so be it. I am not a huge Beatles fan - but I can't remember the last time I listened to St. Pepper --- I listen to their other stuff a lot more. (Help,Revolver, Rubber Soul, White Album, and because my son loves it, Yellow Submarine).
  24. Nice interview with Mayer - it seems like he going at it on the right angle, at least. http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/grateful-dead/6655956/john-mayer-grateful-dead-and-company-interview
  25. I read that an overall documentary on the Atlanta Pop Fest has played at some festivals over the years --- I think they have been trying to find a distributor.
