I Miss Jerry.

Ghosty, Definitely check out the Grateful Dead. They are the most amazing band ever.
If you've never listened to them, start out with some studio CDs like
-Terrapin Station
-American Beauty
-Shakedown Street

The best Dead however is on live CDs
Check out:

-Europe 72
-Without a Net
-Live at the fillmore April 71
-Closing on Winterland

You won't regret it.

I miss Jerry also guys, check out my sig.

Yea, I used to collect shows.

Not an updated list, but gives you an idea of what I was after. I haven't had time for years though because of school.

Yea, I was really a huuuuuge Deadhead back then. I collected shows only in 10th grade. I didn't get into Phish really until my senior year. I wish I would have gotten some DMB also, but I was really only focused on the dead back then.

Yea, I agree that DMB is extremely overrated NOW. However, they didn't use to be. Also in my mind any band that freely allows the distribution of their concerts is not very overrated and we're lucky to have bands like that these days.

My first Dead show was July 25th 1974. I stopped countung after 75 shows. I know I've seen well over 100.
Today was Jerry's Birthday.
Monday is the anniversary of his passing.
This is a heavy week.

Strange coincidence, I first saw this thread minutes prior, to my local community radio station airing there weekly "Grateful Dead show" (I live in a college town Carbondale Il. WDBX 91.1) Happy B-day anniversary 2 Jerry!!

im listening to the concert psteve posted and my mind is blown. This shit is amazing!

I've spent some time in Carbondale, doing cannabis activist stuff.

Carbondales still pretty mellow. We've unfortunatley kindda went down hill in the last few years (in comparission 2 years past) Regardless, it could be worse,

I ran down to the levy but the devil caught me there, took my 20 dollar bill and it vanished in the air.

Got two reasons why i cry away each lonely night
The firsts ones' name's sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight
The seconds one is prison babe, the sherrifs on my trail
And if he catches up with me i'll spend my life in jail

Just might get some sleep to niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ght.
