The Grateful Thread

[marcski]

It's the shti for sure... most bands consider it to be a big gig and blow it..

Saw Phish do a 2 day run there - not the best shows they ever did..

Was also at one of the pre halloween 1980 shows the GD did.. But - other then being there - I don't remember much.

It's going to be a good time for sure..

Agreed. My bro saw a whole bunch of the '80 run. I saw String Cheese I think the first time they played there. They were so psyched to be there, they came out in white tux's with tails, and the keyboard player was up in one of the boxes by the stage for the opening song. Great show.

Got a call from a buddy, I am in for one of his 4 tickets for the Friday show at Radio City. I am psyched. I think I really only have an interest in seeing them at RCMH this round.

Anyone else going that night? Meetup for drinks at the intermission??

My buddy I am going with in Boston has a Sat Boston to trade for a Sat Phili. Not willing to sell till show night, trying for the trade till the last possible second.

I had some RCMC invites, but money and vacation time tight. The 3 Boston shows were solid. Sunday was not a good a Friday or Sat.

I am pretty sure they will be at the vibes. Bought and paid for that. I might Grab a couple othres over the summer, but, my Colorado trip the 24 thought the 28th of this month took a bite out of the money and time off issue.

At some point our paths will cross..


edit they just announced the Vibes. furthur is there.

tour setlists look good so far...looking forward to next friday night

shame about owsley...wonder how long he would made it on his all-meat diet

 

[ScottySkis]

The vibes is going to be sweet this summer great bands playing

 

[dmc]

I'm going to roll into the Vibes to see Furrther for sure....

 

[deadheadskier]

While Furthur would be my preference, wife would rather go Saturday. Given that I make most of our concert decisions, I'll defer. Bit easier to do Saturday anyways. Where we live, catching Friday would require taking time off.

I'm cool with it though. Never seen Costello, love moe., AOD. I've enjoyed the McLovins when I've seen them and Janes Addiction will certainly be different. I'll just have to take a long pee break during Deep Banana Blackout. Not a fan.

mr stanely, sorry to hear of your passing. you brought such insight with those little tabs

 

[deadheadskier]

Wonder if Furthur has plans for other cool things this tour. Don't know if you all have been paying attention to them playing Abbey Road in Succession this tour.

Culminated last night on Phil's 71st Bday!! :beer:

Awesome. The boys sound great.

Btw, that was not the last track on Abbey Road.....(although it was not noted on the album covers, both the UK and US releases of Abbey Road, they hid one at the very end after a bit of silence).....I always thought it was strange to do that, but the Beatles were not the only ones who did it...

Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl,
but she doesn't have a lot to say
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
but she changes from day to day

I want to tell her that I love her a lot
But I gotta get a belly full of wine
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
Someday I'm going to make her mine, oh yeah,
Someday I'm going to make her mine.

 

[marcski]

I am mobile now.....don't see the vid.. Did they play the entire b side last night as what I heard may occur.....?

 

[spring_mountain_high]

interesting...sounds competent enough...gimmicky though?

any recos on where to grab a brew and a bite pre-show near radio city?

 

[marcski]

I will be at RCMH tomorrow. Anyone else??

 

[marcski]
