Pat is a star on the vibes. So tasteful.

The reason being they are freaking great rocked out rock n roll songs!

I don't know if this circulated here, but here's the remastered version of A Hard Day's Night. Sounds great. http://www.npr.org/sections/allsongs/2016/08/25/491201322/all-songs-1-the-beatles-are-live-and-sounding-better-than-ever?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=nprmusic&utm_term=music&utm_content=20160825

There are images of reviews from Mojo and Uncut posted in the FB group which are not that easy to read. I can't find the reviews on either magazine's website. Both reviews are great and have me more excited than I already was.

^ a function of being old enough, right place right time, and with friends who were and still are excellent musical references!

OK, there's been zillions of shows over the last 40+ years, I can spend the rest of time thinking about the next 5, but here goes off the top of my head: R.E.M., Harvard gym, with Husker Du opening. Except at that point we didn't know Husker Du and spent their set outside adjusting our attitude. Ouch. New Order, Boston Opera House. They came out and played about a 50 minute set without an encore that was probably the most intense 50 minutes of music I've ever seen, and when they didn't come out for an encore and the crew started breaking down the stage a full blown riot broke out. My wife

I've always thought of my top 5, so that's easy: Grateful Dead, Roosevelt Stadium, 8-6-74 Allman Brothers w/Clapton, Beacon, 3-19-09 An Evening with Wilco, Orpheum Theater, March 2010 (which included the initial announcement of Solid Sound) Grateful Dead, 9-20-90, MSG (second set was single best Grateful Dead set performance I ever saw) The Clash, Orpheum Theater, London Calling tour (1980?) I'll have to spend some time for the next 5

yeah, what's wrong with August 24?

Got the family out in Boulder visiting my son. Impromptu decision to go to Folks Festival in Lyons CO today. The Decemberists headlining. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Sorry I missed it, was on my calendar but my wife had other plans in mind. I would have kept you feeling like a spring chicken. BTW, who's playing guitar? Is Billy back, or still on medical leave? I've lost track.

YLT has already appeared at SS. Don't know if that "disqualifies" them from appearing again, but just sayin.

Love that photo!

Fantastic! I would love to see that.

August 9, 1995. I remember exactly where I was (at my desk at work) and how I learned the news (phone call from a friend). I didn't believe it, as my GD friends had been sardonically joking about Jerry dying since seeing the Dead for the Albany run in the spring. Garcia looked and for the most part sounded terrible. During Black Peter my buddy and I just looked at each other, saying this day is coming soon. So it had been a running joke, and when I got the call I thought it was another prank call. After all, we were in the midst of receiving our mail order tickets for the fall Boston Garden ru

I don't know how to do that, would love to get access to the MP3 of the show.

Nice piece on Nels and Lovers in today's WSJ. I don't subscribe, picked up the paper in a hotel, so I can't post a link. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I have a Rega P3, and also have to move the belt to switch speeds. Which likely explains why I've never played or purchased a 45 rpm vinyl since I got it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hanging on vacation with the kids and their friends, my 26 year old and his buddies are all about this band. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Was the alligator a blonde Strat with an alligator sticker? Same guitar with the Harley sticker? The one guitar I never liked, from a visual point of view, was the white Travis Bean. Never appealed to my eye as a "Jerry" kind of guitar. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

My personal favorites of Garcia's named guitars, in order: Wolf Rosebud Tiger

That will be a fantastic night at the Cap. Let us know. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yeah, Phish 2 nights also. And I chose this year not to go. Too bad. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Wilco Schmilco. Sounds good to me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Incredible awesome second set. Nothing but big time heavyweight GD songs. Fantastic. Sound sucked on the field first set. Horrible. Perfect for the second set. Have fun tonight, wish I was going. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
