I would NOT recommend Egypt. The boys did not want to release it because Keith's piano was out of tune...From what I've heard, I have to agree

Just read a Bobby chapter in Gans’ book Conversations with the Dead where he says that by the time he starts getting bored with a given tune it’s a fair guess that a certain portion of the audience is getting bored too. That seemed to be the case with that obviously frustrated segue to Morning Dew... I wonder if this created any tension between band members on stage that was perceptible to the deadheads?

^ Agreed. I checked whether the original paper included the age of the participants in the 'experiment' and, incrediby for a peer-reviewed journal of such high prestige, it seems nobody thought that age was of any relevance for the issue being tested and hence ‘age’ was not a factor included in the analyses. Maybe this gives you an opportunity to write a reply and publish in PNAS .

Listening to a shitty but glorious AUD of this. Can't wait for my order to arrive and seeing the dvd

I only have 'Ursa Major' from 11thDD and hear some 'Television/Verlaine solo there (the 'angular' guitars), although without the wonderful Tom/Richard interplay.

Television will perform at The Independent in San Francisco on November 5 and The Georgia Theatre in Athens, GA on November 7. The influential rock band, who recorded their seminal albumMarquee Moon in 1977, will be performing in Southeastern United States for the first time since 1993. The band will also perform at this year’s Fun Fun Fun Fest, which takes place in Austin, TX November 8-10. These dates will be the band’s first shows U.S. shows since 2007. http://www.jambands.com/news/2013/08/20/television-to-play-three-u-s-shows#.Uht9OtK-1Nd What will be the line-up? Has Verlaine made p

This is still the perception 10000 Km away, 30 years after. Biased by appearances, I guess.

I only disagree with Jerry as long as I'm not seeing Jim Morrison,... I can enjoy some Doors tunes (well, only Morrison Hotel, really). As soon as he appears in the tubes, I fully understand Jerry. Maybe this is an effect of the preponderance of vision over hearing when forming biases. But this would fit better in the appearance vs sound thread...

Yes, according to a recent scientific study ("Sight over sound in the judgment of music performance"): http://www.nature.com/news/musicians-appearances-matter-more-than-their-sound-1.13572?WT.ec_id=NEWS-20130820 Below is the abstract.
