No. What I'm saying is that there aren't many bands where people load up the van and follow them around on tour. The Dead was like that. Phish was/is like that. You don't see that happening with, say, U2.

Great show. Setlist looks poor on paper, but this is the first show where they sounded just downright great. Fluffhead, Hood, Jibboo, Julius my highlights. Though after seeing the setlist for last night in Camden, I can't say I wouldn't mind a swap.

Pretty much how I felt. Song list left something to be desired, but it was all executed extremely well. Had awesome company with me; managed to find groups of friends from 4 walks of life, Boston friends, Portland friends, NH friends and Jersey friends and gathered them all together for a great crew of about 20 of us up on the lawn.

True story: On our way from our friends pre-party in Norwood to Great Woods there was a dead Possum on the side of 495. Told J we'd see Possum and sure enough we did. Possum isn't really one of my favorites, but it was kind of neat that that happened.

Certainly was a big test for me to see if they're truly back. I would say emphatically, yes they are. Wish I had bought tickets to Hartford.

Downloaded GW yesterday. Probably could've been patient and found it somewhere for free, but wanted to listen to on the road to VT to visit family. The recording absolutely holds up to my memory of the night. Great stuff

Wish I was going to Hartford

and SPAC, the Gorge, Shoreline, Red Rocks :lol:

I'm sure most of you have already checked it out. Rumors I've heard are either Vegas or more likely the Coachella site in California. Both would be too rich for my budget. Part of me is glad that they're hosting a 'holiday' event that anyone who has the money and wants to go, can go. Other part of me wishes it was somewhere in the Northeast. I suggested to some friends the Carrier Dome as a NE location that could meet ticket demand for Halloween.

Oh well, hopefully there a couple of weekend New England or New York shows this fall. These days that's seems like all I have the time/money for.

Yeah, it's going to be the Coachella site. Bunch of friends already have places reserved for the shows. I'm blowing everything on Red Rocks, so this is a no-go for me.

I love how they're doing the announcement though, knocking off the states one by one, and the pun on the word "date" is neat too. The place where cochella takes place is known for its date production, which has been threatened in recent times. So, hence, "Save the Date."
