I was listening to the Dead way back in my college days but I didn't remember that today was the anniversary of their last concert. > <~ for the Grateful Dead

4. At Soldier's Field in Chicago. |
|
It was actually a better show than most of the rest of that final tour.
Set 1: Touch of Grey, Little Red Rooster, Lazy River Road, When I Paint My Masterpiece*, Childhood's End, Cumberland Blues, Promised Land
Set 2: Shakedown Street, Samson & Delilah, So Many Roads, Samba In The Rain, Corrina > Drums > Space > Unbroken Chain, Sugar Magnolia,
E: Black Muddy River, Box Of Rain
That double encore was something very unusual they almost never did that.

9. I got to see TWO Unbroken Chains :) |

Vegas and Shoreline.
The only two west coast performances of the song they ever did.

11. Unfortunately your talking to someone who is only able to appriciate... |
|
with much affection; the devotion to their music that they had through their recordings. I missed the bus by about 2 years...

14. Touch of Grey came out just after I moved to upstate NY. |
|
I remember that I was driving to work early one morning enjoying the beauty of the sunrise the first time I heard Touch of Gray... obviously it made a lasting impression.
when you listen to something as wonderful as Dark Star while you're still in high school it hurts to see the legends of your life slowly disappearing

5. Thank you for this post... |

I hadn't seen this when I posted mine just minutes ago. However, mine contains the link to the Soundboard link to stream this show.
ENJOY!

6. Back in the day, I was "in the loop" when it came to tape trading |
|
I had soundboards of this show within 2 weeks :).
Ah the good old days.

8. It's amazing what the digital age has provided for tape/disc trading... |
|
Phish gigs up on etree within hours of the performance. Many listening to the previous nights' show in the lot the next night before the show...

10. The only problem is that although you get the music faster, it killed |
|
a lot of the community when it came to taping and trading.
It used to be that the quest for rare shows led you to all kinds of new and interesting people and hell a lot of my best friends I never would have met if not for tape trading.
So yeah, digital gets the music out there much faster, but it also has a bad side.

12. Oh, I remember "packing" maxell II's and heading down to barbeques |
|
where we'd have 5 decks to the DAT master...
I bet I could still wallpaper the porch with those Maxell II points...
