Let's at least show the man in some of his better moments....shall we??

are you implying that the fall 89 tour was not one of his finer moments? because if you are, well, you and i are going to have to have a smoke off at high noon....and i say good day to you sir!

I saw a few shows during the fall '89 tour....and yes, Jerry's voice was already shot by then. Unfortunately, his early-mid 80's coke years changed his voice forever. He had also bwcome obese. Just watch and listen to those videos I posted above and there is a night and day difference. I didn't see the movie the other night, but I heard it was amazing to see Jerry look, sound and play when he was about 30-32 y.o.

As far as your smoke off challenge....I think I'd rather keep it to the slopes....or you could PM me. .

i love all eras and go through phases of favorites, but vocals aside i think 87-91 was as consistently good as they ever played together

then again i'm a touch-head, so i guess i'm biased

you're on...we'll continue the debate in the midst of some mountain greenery

You both should have a safety meeting at Platty, their is a great spot with A zone sticker, hopefully it is still here this season.

Did anyone catch a viewing of sunshine daydream earlier this month? Great HQ footage and a ripper show. Definitely grab the release when it hits the shelves in September.

What I wouldn't give to see the man dust off those rusty strings one more time........

 

[spring_mountain_high]

would you take the worst GD show over the best Furthur show? I would...

 

[deadheadskier]

I would take the worst Jerry Garcia show over seeing any other band. I saw some real clunkers towards the end, but every one of those shows has at least a Jerry moment or two that made it all worth it for me. He took me to places of joy that no other musician before or since ever could.

I like Further a lot, unfortunately I am to young to have ever gotten to see the great Jerry.

Furthur is only a tribute to the GD that happens to have a couple members in it..
