there have been tix available all over the place at all three shows i went to -

if you dont care about the actual seat location, you can probably score tickets for half face value without much problem

also, at all three shows i was at, there were tix at the box office available

I said: (hometown pride here) The Phillies sure look good here in PHIL-adelphia; the "fillies" are what Bob is singing about, and yes the SoCal babes are mighty fine lookers. Ask The Beachboys.

"phillies", pardon my grammer, lol. As a lifelong Mets fan thats a major faux pas on my part. Of course I live in MT now so its more of a fair weather thing, that and the Mets are still the Mets. Sorry to see the Spectrum go Adam, so many great shows there starting in 82' for me. Many epic shows were played there and on the ice as well. The morning dew in 86' is a DEAD memory I'll never forget.

Hey Todd V.! That show in Philly is one of my Grateatest Grateful Dead memories of all time. That Dew in my opinion will go down as one of the best. That was the last Lost Sailor played by the fellas. The shortest second set I ever saw and one of my all time favorites. I have a audience shot dvd of the whole show if you don't have I would love to share. Post your email and when I get back from Shoreline i'll drop it in the mail for you! LOVE THAT SHOW!! 3-24-86

quite possibly the hottest first set of this tour if it was played well (and i'm gonna guess that it was!)

(weird. i don't know why this post of mine just appeared a second time....must be some karma thing with the viola reprises lol)

something just occurred to me
Shoreline and the Gorge are the only two outdoor venues of this tour.

shoreline is lame....turn it up! Gorge is gonna be epic...campground opens friday at noon, closes sunday at noon...thats a 48 hour party friends. Phil, Bob, Warren, Derek, Gregg, Oteil, and some Doobies as well. Ok, lots of doobies... and no decibel limitations!!!!

Phil has still done some great shows at the Greek in recent years though...in fact i saw him do a show there that had a Viola with two reprises like tonight, come to think of it (2001 i think? - the first annual "Phil Lesh Day" in Berkeley...was a great show

Now if they can pull out a Cryptical->Other One->New Potato->Born Cross Eyed->Stephen->Eleven-> with a Cream Puff War thrown in for good measure, it might come close.

Shoreline should be a special one though...I was surprised no WEST LA!

sorry dude,but there was a full stop after the last viola and after BP.just because they pick up the next tune within seconds of ending the last tune doesn't officially count as a transition.the stops were really rerally short,but officially there!!! but anyway who cares the set smoked!!! even if i was only listening over the phone!

I was afraid they would do this- my gorge dream sets a week early... hopefully they don't break out Corinna and Samba for the last show of the tour... but that's what you get with these guys- you mobilize all your resources to get to a show and it might suck or be the best of the tour... tits up to all y'alls for getting a great looking show!

show was amazing. all this talk about better with jerry, better without jerry is pure silly. it is not the same but let me give you a little advice. look forward out the windshield and not out the rear view mirror because that is what this band is doing and all will be well. this band is engaged and trying to make amazing music. the gloves are off and all the old rules are out the window. just remember "i've got a friend somewhere" and oh yeah "come on home your mama's calling you" happy mothers day and i hope tonight in shoreline rocks. i love this band!!!!

ok....ill just add my two cents. I was 5th row dead center on the floor for the second set and it was AMAZING!!!


My expectations of 'setlist' were set very low so what they played ripped through my soul. It was an incredible experience that I have not felt from any dead related band in a LONG LONG time. They nailed that second set!

The Wharf Rat>>JAM>>DS verseII was just monster. and the satisfaction to close was ROCKING!

could not say much else besides that was FUCKING AMAZING! of the shows ive heard this tour it was by far the best; and I just happened to be there. No need to go to shoreline or the gorge; cause that show aint getting topped and im willing to stop while ahead...

THANKS BOYS!!!

here is my longer review.....



ok....ill just add my two cents. Had to add my review for this GRATE show!
I was first row risers for the first set and 5th row dead center on the floor!!!! for the second set and the show was AMAZING!!!

I thought the first set was good/solid. But not mind melting....really enjoyed the bertha>>viola>>caution>>viola; very jammy. the balck peter was good but thought a little slow after the monster that was the viola sandwich. I really enjoyed it though. the cosmic was good; cant recall it blowing me away but I enjoyed it.

I thought after that first set we were destined for a 'clonker' set list in the second. Thought they would save the HEAT for shoreline and the gorge....boy was I wrong!

Right before they came out I squeezed down the aisle on the floor and found two empty seats 5th row right in front of phil...BINGO! I set up shop and was set for the set. My expectations of 'setlist' were set very low so what they played ripped through my soul.

It was an incredible experience that I have not felt from any dead related band in a LONG LONG time (since the Q or 12-31-02). They nailed that second set and really layed it on heavy!

The shakedown was great. Bobby on the pink guitar and phil thundering. New Speedway was nailed. The vocals were on point and the band was firing on all cylinders. I dont think there was one 'flub' the whole song; just power and direction.

Scarler>>FIRE had the whole place just rocking. Really it was amazing to look back at the whole building and see the energy directed at the band. They had to feel it! Great version IMHO. Played out long and hard...the coda jam led right into fire...sweet!

Drums...was great but too short. Space was great but too long. Thought the space was one of the better ones ive heard. Very heavy from the 5th row.

The DS>>Wharf Rat>>JAM>>DS verseII was just monster. For me it was the clear Highlight of the night; which is saying a lot. The JAM out of wharf rat was POWERFUL! They nailed it. Really some of the best music ive heard from the core 4 came out of wharf rat into DS Verse II...just great!

At first when I heard the satisfaction chords I was a little bummed but man was I wrong. They killed it! Bobby was absolutely amazing during the tune. The best was to describe the satisfaction to close was ROCKING! just ROCKING!

OMST was fun and a great way to close the night. A few 'flubs' musically (mostly towards the end of the song) that were the first 'major' mistakes i heard all night. That is very impressive for 'the dead'....just solid the whole night!

could not say much else besides that show (2nd set in particular) was FUCKING AMAZING! of the shows ive heard this tour it was by far the best; and I just happened to be there. No need to go to shoreline or the gorge; cause that show aint getting topped and im willing to stop while ahead...

THANKS BOYS!!!




ps> what the fuck is up with the lack of 'drugs' on lot. After being on shakedown for two hours prior to the show chilling I never heard one person walk by with shrooms, acid, weed, molly, x, anything.....absolutely NO DRUGS. I did not hear ONE DRUG being sold, which is fucking amazing at this size show for THE DEAD! A few in my crew were looking for mushrooms or acid and could not find anything. Way too much alcohol and nitrous. The nitrous was out of hand. I think the crowd needed some serious liquid to send that show over the top. Instead a lot of drunk people. great energy but where the hell have the psychedelics gone if they aren't on dead tour....just a crazy observation

I figured it out.
It is better than it used to be.
Only, it isn't
But...it is...

We Want Phil said: Only 15 songs over two sets...ripoff!

I said: It seems there is "one in every crowd" this tour. Some people just don't get it. My advice to you, phriend, is to give up your love (or even "like") of this band and stick to Top 40 radio, at least you won't feel ripped-off. These guys are giving it their all every night, every show, and this tour has been killer! It has more than satsifed those of us who understand that "you can never go home again". This IS NOT a nostalgia tour. It is about the "here and now". It is live and happnin'. I saw six shows and regret not travelling West for more!!

hey now... all i can say is last nights show was amazing , tiring & scary. There was so many high points in a show i only saw half of, that the energy lasted me all day (Sunday). There are many reasons that we are not blessed in L.A with the type of atmosphere that many of you may desire from a dead concert. Yet SoCal has the unique adaptation of enjoying the music with no more stimulus than a hug and a song to get us high. For me the show holds a special place in my soul as a representation of our community as a whole to come together and be the righteous brother&sister bear that we can be. The NSWB felt like a nod from Jerry above, and even Satisfaction rocked my tyedye socks off.This show was so kind all I can say is Thank You my family for making it everything that I love about being with you and the music.This is the only show I got to see this tour and I am still buzzin ... even the predictable Saturday Night had a great polish and shine.
P.S has mickey always been talking at the end of the shows on this tour?

No L in Philly that I saw or heard of in two nights. Everything else except the real deal.
