To add to your continuing astonishment (and mine too), there's a thread on the Hoffman Music Forum, Embarking on a GD Journey. It's actually now 2 threads, as it's been continued into a second one. Some fantastic posts there. Here's the link to the beginning of the second thread, the first entry will take you back to the start. Hope you have a lot of time. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/embarking-on-a-grateful-dead-journey-all-purpose-thread-second-set.343616/

Thanks for the head's up! Haven't heard this year's shows yet, but the past years shows are among my favorite things to listen to.

And a great show that was Mizzy. Still puts a smile on my face every time I listen to it. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk

Sitting around the house in the wee hours of Saturday morning listening to a Wilco show with my wife, it dawned on me just how much I'm missing Wilco. Looks like 2014 will be a barren Wilco year. Hoping for the best for Sue and all the guys. Solid Sound 2015 is a long way away (478 days according to my counter), can't get here fast enough for me.

I'm very late to the DBT party. Really liking English Oceans, very much. Been through the disc 2x today, and some extra listens to Primer Coat. Love that song.

Yea, never heard of a slow day at work! Hah. No, I was referring to anyone not liking Europe '72 Dead.

Happy Mardi Gras! I'm celebrating by streaming WWOZ at the office. http://www.wwoz.org/listen/player/

I've never heard of such a thing.

Can't get the video to load, here or directly on YouTube.

English Oceans now on Spotify.

That must have been the one. Flattest no energy show I've ever been to.

Nice to read. The last time I walked out of a show was Ratdog at the Orpheum, many years ago. Left at the set break. Never been back to see them since. I'll be seeing them at the Lockin festival, so glad to hear there's a chance I may enjoy their sets.

One song in, sounds great.

The full show video of that is available as I recall. I think it's one of my 450 "favorite" YouTube videos .

Good news, figured as much since they're playing Lockin (and I'm going), but good to hear. Info must have come from Bert Holman, their manager, lives in Newton.

Anyone get Play All Night, the '92 Beacon cd? Got it this weekend, it kills! Great playing, great recording.

No, there were no video screens. By my count there are at least 3-4 cameras filming. You can see one side stage of Jerry. I have a feeling thus was a John Scher production. Voodoonola has a bunch of full show videos from Scher produced GD/Garcia shows at the Capital, Roosevelt Stadium, etc. My daughter is good friends with his daughter, I'm going to see what I can find out.

I went to check out some '82 or '83 shows on Voodoonola's YouTube feed. And I came across this, Roosevelt Stadium, 8-4-76. The complete show in video, paired to the soundboard audio. I was there with all my friends, so of course I spent the night watching through the first set. I remember it well. Who the heck is Voodoonola and how does he/she gets access to these complete show videos? I may never know, but I am grateful! http://youtu.be/dhXCIrQsCxw

Me too! This was a huge album among my friends during our high school years. Someone had the colored album, recently bought a used copy. Saw him 2x in the last few years, most recently last spring. Great times. He tells the story of how he was 19 when he wrote Feelin Alright. Still a cash cow for him. 19.

I was " off the bus" from about '81-87, never listen to or possess any shows from the early '80's era up to first coma and never before felt like I missed anything. But based on this chatter here i think I'm going to have to spend some time with '83.

Went home last night and realized I already own this release. I almost bought it again yesterday. I may not have much of a memory but I guess I'm consistent.

I've got lots of other musical events on my horizon, and more music at home than I have time to listen to. But I look forward to nothing more than seeing Wilco, so 2014 being potentially a Wilco-less concert year is something I will have to deal with, but it does bum me out. But in the scheme of things, that's nothing compared to what the Tweedy family will be going through in 2014, so no whining from me. The counter on my phone's start screen shows 491 days until Solid Sound. I can get through it.

I have it. Highly recommend it. Five shows from May '77, other than the highly circulated Cornell, Buffalo, etc. Sound is excellent (that's an understatement), the packaging is great. Don't hesitate, get one of the last ones! In full disclosure (these things are not cheap), I bought the box primarily because I was at the St. Louis show that's included, and had never had a copy of that show. But I'm glad to have it.
