Lammycat Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Cajon drum Nice. I want one. Great show, but a RIDICULOUS "The Eleven":https://archive.org/details/gd68-10-12.sbd.eD.10909.sbeok.shnf Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 I have been using tables and chairs to do that since I was a kid. I have learned over the years that women in particular find it rather annoying. Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I have been using tables and chairs to do that since I was a kid. I have learned over the years that women in particular find it rather annoying. Me too! I like playing my conga that way (between the legs rather than upright) but it slips out a lot and/or requires a lot of pressure from the thighs to keep it stable. That cajon looks perfect in terms of convenience in playing it. Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 This was a fun night, with the only GD "Stir it Up" (besudes the Stir it Up Jam at Cap Center a few years later). It's not the complete song (Weir obviously didn't know the lyrics) but it was a fun little goof around for a few minutes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_3MjPe2030 Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Weir seemed to be feeling it that night - yikes. Never heard him sound like that.

mountain bed Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Weir, Billy, Mickey (and Popper and Woody from Cheers)play at tiny club for Sundance. Anybody know what that percussive box Billy is playing is? http://mashable.com/2017/01/23/grateful-dead-sundance-concert-long-strange-trip/#jHEgCSwCEOqYI might have told you this before, but a very close friend of mine from HS became one of Woody's pot dealers while they were both in college together (the same school my Mom went to, but dropped out and had me instead lol). He turned out ok - (Woody, not my friend). Link to post Share on other sites

I've got a Blues Traveler connection, too, to match yours.Grab this one http://www.leivapercussion.com/lp/es/cajones/omeya-masterThere are a lot listed there and in some type of foreign language, too. I'm not sure I like the ones with the stands as much as the ones you just sit on. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure I like the ones with the stands as much as the ones you just sit on.Come on, it's not Martian or Swahili. Anyway, it's played between the legs and sine qua non gear for many latin and flamenco groups (not my thing, but still). It's played putting it between the legs and some are very expensive, and sound fantastic. Mickey Hart sure knows better...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1lNqO8FBw8 Link to post Share on other sites

worldrecordplayer Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 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 Link to post Share on other sites

mountain bed Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I got a notice it had been sent. The length of time between a notice and having it in my hands has varied a bit over the years. I think the earliest was 2 days, the latest about 10-12. It's not easy - I try to be a patient man. Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I checked my delivery status. The package originated in Aurora IL, about 15 miles away from my house. Then it went to somewhere in Tennessee, then back to Bensenville IL, which is adjacent to Ohare. That's some streamlined operation going on there, UPS. Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Listened to Disk 1 last night - definitely sounds nice. This show will be perfect for road trips with the wife/family - lot's of tunes, without the long meandering jams (I seem to be the only one who enjoys a 35-40 minute Dark Star) Link to post Share on other sites
worldrecordplayer Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 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 Link to post Share on other sites

The only time I ever saw the JGB was the night after this one in Minneapolis. Only time I had first row seats to a show. Lucked out as a guest of a friend. We were tripping balls that night.

imsjry Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I guess now they are starting a vinyl singles club. I'm a vinyl freak but having a hard time getting excited about having singles of studio versions of the most popular dead songs taken from albums i already own. Then again....colored vinyl is nice!
