Winston Legthigh Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 That's a nice cliff hanger with that film reel - "That's the holy grail."That trailer is intense. I was slightly stressed out about it. Link to post Share on other sites

Vacant Horizon Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 That trailer is intense. I was slightly stressed out about it. Curious, why? I kind of get what you're saying. It seems like it's going to be an emotional ride. I could listen to Garcia talk like I listen to him play. Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I had Jerry's laugh set as my ringtone. Oh shit how did you do that? I have had "Bertha" as mine for several years and might consider a switch... Link to post Share on other sites
jw harding Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Oh shit how did you do that? I have had "Bertha" as mine for several years and might consider a switch...There is a youtube of Jerry laughing for 20 seconds. I converted that into a ringtone using some program, then uploaded to my phone. Was kind of a pain in the ass, then my phone deleted it. Anyway, here is a link to it if you can figure out how to upload: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xffqfjah7f6vfp9/20%20Seconds%20of%20Jerry%20Garcia%20Laughing.m4r?dl=0 Hope that link still works.

roadhse ma Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Recieved Fenway #2 tickets Dead & Co.40.00 with no feess 1980's concert price Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Recieved Fenway #2 tickets Dead & Co.40.00 with no feess 1980's concert priceThe highest average Dead ticket price in the 80s was just over $20. A local DJ on local station XRT recalled the outrage when Clapton charged $35 in the early 90s for tickets to an Alpine Valley show. Link to post Share on other sites
roadhse ma Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Winston Yep 20 bucks each discounted down due to sluggish Sunday Night sales. Interesting point about Clapton a few years later ( middle 90s ) We can then The Rolling Stones for breaking the 100.00 ceiling. Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I always thought it was either the Eagles or Fleetwood Mac that launched ticket prices into the stratosphere. Link to post Share on other sites

Winston Legthigh Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Contemplating seeing DSO (for the first time) in Aurora IL in mid June. Main factor is that I'd be going solo... While I am in contemplation mode, I see that Terrapin Flyer is playing at Fitzgerald's the night before. Has anyone here seen them? I'm watching a video of them on youtube. Not bad - kind of sloppy.

I've seen them (Terrapin Flyer) several times. It really depends on who's currently in the band, honestly (they traditionally utilize available folks but it's not consistent).They were out here in Feb. w/ original Merry Pranksters (George Walker, among them) providing antics for the night.... DSO I'd go solo, too. Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Drove by it last year when the Beach Boys were playing there. Looked nice. Lots of people hanging around outside listening to the show for free. That date though may not work for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Shug Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I saw the Terrapin Flyer crew play as Melvin Seals band and they also sat in with local Dead cover band Xtra Ticket. One guy did Jerry's vocals and another did lead guitar. The guitar was great really nice tone and fiery leads. DSO are the best Dead cover band to my ears. I love them especially when they do a early 70s show which is now rare for them Link to post Share on other sites

I love them especially when they do a early 70s show which is now rare for themI'd go to JRAD over a DSO show (two different birds, really) but I hear ya! They did a late 70s show last time they were in Denver. I've seen them probably 10-12 times and think I caught one '74 show and everything was older. Link to post Share on other sites
Shug Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can't remember which forum I read about it on, maybe it was an Archive review but someone was remembering the time Dark Star Orchestra recreated 9/27/72 Stanley Theatre at the Great American Music Hall in SF. Holy shit, that would've been an incredible show because what ever they do, they do it right, and in that tiny venue with all its history? Talk about the "Just Exactly Perfect Band"! The first time I saw DSO in 2001 they did a '73 show. Hearing a real live fire breathing monster of a band do the '73 arrangement of Eyes left me a puddle of goo on the floor. I've not caught a 70s show from them since then, unfortunately, but they are still great even doing 80s and 90s shows. Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I've seen DSO 4 times in about a 5 year span ('99-'04 ish). This was when they did full GD shows (do they still do that?). Anyway...I called all those shows but one (which I think was a '77 show) before they announced it at the end. My friends would freak out on me haha. I must be 'on the spectrum' or something.
