This isn’t a review of 9 November, but see my new post for Thursday 6th, for an Englishman’s perspective on that show.

Wow, what a setlist

Does anybody know if all the shows of the run are going to be released? Soundboard recordings though?

it would be a shame if they didn't do that. Phil needs to talk to Bob about what he does, you buy a cd before the show and they make you a copy. You pick it up 15 minutes after the show, excellent quality.

I wish Phil did that.

To me this is one of the strongest 1st sets. Every song looks perfect with each other.

Whoa awesome

so... just say I buy the whole run, do I get the shows that already took place now and the rest later? and I am confused on how I get the shows, is there just a link for m to download the shows...

oh man, this set list looks awesome I can't wait to here it.

I can go to one more show of the run... anyone have any ideas? do you guys think the last show is going to be something special? (not to say any of the others shows weren't because they definitely were!)


Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By mandala (Mandala) on Sunday, November 09, 2008 - 07:53 pm: Edit Post

i believe it takes a few weeks after the run before the downloads are available...


Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By Dennis (Bethlehem) on Sunday, November 09, 2008 - 07:57 pm: Edit Post

Each show will be available for download 2-3 weeks after the performance date.

If I had to guess I'd say the next show could be something special, too. I actually noticed it the first time I saw the dates, I mentally circled the 11th and 18th. Maybe I'm wrong but it seems like the stand alone days would be different somehow, maybe not outwardly so, but setlist, song selection and performance wise. I don't know about anyone else but an acoustic set would be bad ass, the Sunday night Chicago show I went to last year was awesome. Anybody think Phil would or, would want to for that matter, play an entire acoustic show or do you suppose he'd annouce that kind of thing just in case someone didn't want to go due to no electric music?

i don't think that they would do an entire acoustic show. it would some beautiful stuff for sure, but an entire acoustic show, i feel, would have to be announced.

now, surprising us with an acoustic set, like in chi-town last year or the nokia is extremely plausible. Tuesday seems like a prime candidate.

how many have you been to kamloops? = )

hope your doing well. looking forward to seeing you and the missus. hope all is well

The copy paper box at my house suggests otherwise, as it is full of unlistened to discs. When I first got a burner and internet about 5 years ago,I went nuts and burnt like 500+ discs in a couple of months time. I was taken in by the novelty of it all, and now I know I'll never listen to all of it. But, we phil's band as good as they are right now it makes it tough not to. I'd be fine if I knew I'd listen to it all, but invariably in a few months they'll be a whole 'nother batch of phil shows to oooh and ahhh about and burn and never listen to. Such is my dilemma... (Admittedly a good dilemma to have. LONG LIVE PHIL LESH!!!)

I'm thinking of putting away the GD stuff for a while and spinning new music (to include Phil). My usual problem tends to be that I'll get a new show, for instance, the Reconstruction that TMel just sent me (Thanks, btw) and am re-reminded how fucking amazing Garcia was as a musician and then I get on a Jerry kick and everything else gets neglected.

Mostly just Phil and Friends, and the occasional Dylan or MMW spin. Although, I just got Lifeboat, Jimmy's CD, the Word, and Crosy's If I Could Only Remember My Name this week. It was a good week, needless to say.

tremendous fucking show tonight, from start to finish.

I wasn't there on Friday and Saturday, but I thought that tonight has been the best one so far.


I haven't heard a Phil and Friend's Other One like tonight's in quite some time.


It was flat out ferocious.


One of the most beautiful Peggy-Os I've ever heard, too.


And the Ripple encore was just a perfect way to send us home....oh baby!!

this is why i go to shows! gotta love phil the prankster dropping that second set MONSTER on the unsuspecting heads (and ears) of the laid-back, relaxed mantinee sunday crowd. after a very nice althea and loser, i dont think anyone was expecting THAT... still not sure exactly what THAT was, except it was really, really good.

dark star v1 and v2 themselves were pretty short but the other one was literally out of control and the transitions were the most seamless ive heard out of this group.

is it dead circa 72? no, but this is one talented band phils got together right now and tonight they were hitting on all cylinders - i dont want to say tonight was them playing at their peak, but with a show that included a beautiful peggy-o and ripple and also featured some loud, amp-shattering music, i dont think it would be overstating that tonight was really a high watermark for this current lineup.

i can do a song-by-song breakdown but i think tonights show stands up, top to bottom, as one cohesive, excellent piece of music.

funny thing was, i heard someone say after show "i go to one show on this whole run and they had to play THAT setlist? not a single song i was looking for."

i really couldnt believe what i was hearing - maybe he wanted more jackie tunes or something

So, who says you have to close a set with a Deal and open one with a Scarlet>Fire or Shakedown? Way to mix it up Phil!.

Alligator was lots of fun. Peggy O was beautiful. Didn't think much of the Jackie tune. I thought his Hollywood tune from last night was a lot more fun and interesting. Tenn Jed was well played. Set I seemed rather short.

Yes, set II was as good as it looks on paper! The Loser tonight was better than the last one. Real high energy build at the end. I thought the Althea was very hot, too. Don't Let Me Down melted me, just like the first time I heard it at the Nokia last year. The Cryptical sandwich was heaven. Most of the songs were on the short and not so jammed side but were still great. Other One was ferocious with a mighty Phil bomb intro. One of the gripes I've been hearing the last couple days (and one I feel as well) is "where the heck are the Phil songs?" Maybe he was resting up for tonight. In II, Jackie only sang Loser and MNS. Phil sang everything else (I think), in fine form I might add. Music Never Stopped!! Ripple!!! Who could ask for anything more?

There have been musical peaks that really gave me a buzz at all of the 6 shows I've seen at the Nokia so far. However, this second set was probably the best set of the run so far. At least that's how I feel about it right now. Just another satisfied picky DeadHead.

I've heard The Other One many times over the past 30 plus years, but this one really roared. The intro, of course, is one of the best intros to any song, but tonight Phl had it at full throttle. Nokia shook. People outside must have looked around wondering if they were hearing and feeling an earthquake. The band joined in and just kept on going.

Fun show...

Great show - but I must admit I think last night's show was much better - all around. Tonight was definately a short show and talk about psychedelic - listen to Sat. set 2. Seeing Larry play fiddle on 2 songs and mandolin ( I think) on another is always nice. These are my 1st shows since last years Nokia run and the overall improvement in the band is incredible. Jackie's playing has dramatically improved - love the "dueling" or "trading" guitar leads that Larry and Jackie do. Can't wait for Sless to return either.

This show was an absolute gift from Phil, from start to finish. The Alligator was the best this band has ever done, finally getting the pace just right and nailing it, into a killer Bog Railroad. Jackie's Shaken was real nice and then just a beautiful, church-like Peggy-O followd by a carnival closing Tennessee Jed. The second set was epic as both Althea & Loser were just dripping with good ol' Grateful Dead intensity. The Dark Stars were actually the least of the jams this set as the Cryptical & Other One mind bended everything, wrapping a Mountains of the Moon that was real sweet,follwed up by a perfect, bouncing Music Never Stopped. Certainly one for the ages....

This show had a flow that reminded me of a Grateful Dead show. First set was a clear, crisp alt/country/folk/rock set. Second set was just flying deep into the universe. The band looked and sounded like they were being played by the music. It just ripped and flowed from start to finish.

Tonight we had a very special guest; Phil Lesh and Friends at their best.

Looking forward to Tuesday and beyond. Should be interesting to see how they work Barry back in to this. Also have heard rumors of another night of Warren and a night of Trey.

This band just keeps getting better.

Thank you Phil!!

Phil played other Beatles tunes since Warren left...and I know for a fact he played 'Dont let me down' back in '05 in Milwaukee, after the chicago shows in nov.

What time do you need to get on line to be up in the first few rows, around 6:00?


Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By WeWantPhil (Wewantphil) on Monday, November 10, 2008 - 11:53 am: Edit Post

Andrew,

I've been getting there 15-30 minutes before showtime and have had no trouble getting to the middle of the floor. It hasn't been too packed up front. I guess the people for whom close quarters are a challenge are staying away from the floor, so those who do go up front are tolerant of the tightness. Friday was the tightest so far. Sat & Sun were relatively mild comparitively. Go figure.

Thanks again

Source is not one of my 'usuals', but rather a 'zoner who seems to be passing along reliable information. She did not indicate a particular night.

My 'usual' source is pretty much 100% reliable, but it is often information I cannot pass on too early. No special info for the rest of this run as of yet. Except it should be a nice second half of the philathon if show #8 is any indication.

someone asked about sunday night show end times

the 11/2 set 2 ended at 9:55, the encore was over at 10:06

the 11/9 set 2 ended at 9:35, didnt write down the encore end time, but i remember being on the street before 10:00


Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By 1 Show At A Time (The11jam) on Monday, November 10, 2008 - 03:31 pm: Edit Post

Pretty sure last night was over right about 9:45.


I was thinking about that too.

I wonder if there is a really strict curfew on Sundays due to perhaps the security folk being in a union, or something like that.


Makes sense why they ended so early last night, and why the shows are at 6 in the first place, and why (aside from the added last night) last year they didnt play on Sundays at all.

All shows Monday thru Saturday ends at midnight and Sundays ends at 10pm. It's not Nokia's curfew, but what the band agree to pay for. If Phil go past the allotted time, he has to pay an additional full hour for overtime.

I have attended all eight shows and each show have its momemt. Last night (Sunday, that is) was the best of the run! Unbelievable, cohesive, tight 2nd set!

Yeah, Phil went on around 6:20 last night and was off by 9:45.

I was home with 5 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter of the Giant's game last night! :-)

That's Buffalo... 12/3/05.

And the version Sunday night, while really enjoyable, never even touches that version, at least in my opinion.

I'm not sure I'm familiar with this "Jam" song but they're playing the shit out of it tonight! ;-)

I guess it's just semantics but a lot of these jams aren't jams in my book. Just because the piece of music isn't one song or the following song doesn't qualify it as a jam. If the only criteria for it to be called "jam" is that it's the taint between two other songs, then there are an awful lot of lame interludes where the band was tripping over each other and just couldn't lock in to the start of the next song that would count as "jams." I feel the passage needs a certain amount of grooviness to qualify as a jam.

I prefer to reserve the term for passages of music with clearly defined melodic or thematic elements that differ considerably from the songs on either side. Otherwise, I just think of them as interludes, which I generally don't notate in the setlist. Likewise, it needs to be a certain length to be considered a jam. If it's only a minute I'll refer to it as a jamlet. If it's shorter but still worth mentioning I'll call it a hint or tease.

Anyway....

I seem to get lucky with these shows and have decided that Sun. night is a sure bet, at least it has been for me. I found the 1st set of this show to be rather weak, unlike others on this post. I was saying to myself though- They have to pace themselves-they're playing 14 shows- They have to utilize their energy properly- so I thought- Theyr'e conserving the energy for the 2nd set. I was thinking I was wrong for the 1st 2 songs because it still seemed like the energy and enthusiasm was low. But when they pulled out Don't let me Down- Beautiful-Then the journey into the stratosphere commenced. Cryptical>Dark Star>Other One>Mountains of The Moon!>Dark Star>Cryptical>Music Never Stopped. The Music Never stopped pulled it together so well and the energy of the crowd and the band was pure bliss. I don't think Ive ever experienced a level of musical joy and intelligence for such an extended length of time.
The Ripple encore actually made me cry, which has only happened to me once at a show in my entire life- few thousand concerts. (Frank Zappa Watermelon in Easter Hay at Farleigh Dickinson many years ago did it to me and I was very surprised at how it kinda just happened) I danced like I haven't in years-spinning in front of Phil on the side of the stage. It was the religious experience we all seek. Communion, evolution,possibility,inspiration,intelligence and pure focus in the now to reveal the infinite possibilities of the music and life. A great gift is provided to us all by these guys and Theresa William's hauntingly beautiful and sincere voice. Well, thats just like my opinion for there may be others who did not experience it in this way at all and only have critcisms. My sense is that that number of people would be pretty low. What a wonderful gift these musicians give to us.

For the first time in a long time I was there for THE NIGHT. Usually I go the night after. What a show!....I too got choked up during Ripple
