The oddest things that happened to you at a concert
worldrecordplayer replied to remphish1's topic in Someone Else's Song
I always get a kick out of hearing about TMBG and John Linnell. I moved to Boston in August 1979. One of my to be new friends moved here at the same time from Providence, and he was hip to this RI new wave band called The Mundanes. We ended up seeing them lots of times around the Boston-Cambridge club scene over the next several years. They were fun, and some good poppy fun tunes, and they had Marcia, who we all had a crush on. And they had this guy on keys, John Linnell. Always amazed me that out of that band, John was the one and only who went on to greater rock n roll fame. https://en.wi -
Note-Sunday at 9:00 with no opener. A great night for a Rock Show in Boston!

Yeah, I knew that had to be the Chili Peppers, but I could not recognize Flea's face or head. I see Chad, and I knew that had to be Flea in that mid-air pose, but boy he looks different.

Exene? An alt-righter nut job. I also had no idea. Maybe I'll have to stop seeing X, and just see John solo. I went to college in St. Louis, spent many nights inside Mississippi Nights. Likely before your time Pop Todd. -

I'm sure I have many, but here's the first one to comes to mind. On March 25, 1994, I got to sit onstage for the second set of the Grateful Dead show at Nassau. Behind Vince and just to the left of Garcia, and right next to Hornsby who played accordion that night. I have cousins in SF, and they became friends with Bob Bralove, so starting around '91 whenever the Dead came to Boston, Bralove would set me up with passes and tickets and I'd often catch him for a drink after the show (they always stayed at the Four Seasons in Boston). For this Nassau show, my wife and I either drove down to LI o -
Sounds great, can't wait

Happy anniversary! I often mark the anniversaries of memorable GD shows, always fun to remember and helps me decide what to listen to that day. And hey, "feeling old" can be just a state of mind. Listening to the Dead keeps me feeling young, whatever the calendar says!

Great. Working or recreating?

Yes! Very psyched for next week's Rock Show in Boston.

I always say it, but the audio quality on these HDCD releases is phenomenal. Still haven't gotten to D3. I will need to find time alone at home to be able to blast it through the system at concert level volumes

There was a lot of media attention and public condemnation of the violence in DC on inauguration day. A friend and her sister who were there to witness some of that believes the violence was perpetrated by pro-Trumpers, the Bikers for Trump crowd, for propaganda purposed. I can't verify that, but my friend is reliable. So if possible, keep those mobile device videos going at all times, and stay safe.

Beacon Theater anyone get their ticket order yet?
worldrecordplayer replied to remphish1's topic in Just A Fan
I haven't received anything. Other than "Sit Tight-Your Tickets Are Coming" emails when I made the purchases. -
I was on the 2 day schedule from notice to arrival

Anyone get Dave's Picks Vo.l. 21? I'm listening to the Playing right now, it's stunning. Looking forward to getting to the big jam on D3. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think they all know, especially Isbell, it was for the best. From what I understand, it allowed him to save himself from the bottle, and he ended up with Amanda, clean and sober, and with a successful career. But you're right, this is a rare occurrence. Definitely speaks to the character of all parties. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
