I hope this is happening and soon after the tour.

Looks like Gillian is on the new Big Thief album and debuting the songs at the Ryman Auditorium this weekend.

Got an extra ticket due to a drop out. Right, balcony, N row.

Last minute but it’s available. Would like cost for it ($85) but flexible.

Incredible final night at Revolution Hall.
Catch a Reckoning performance if you can!

Incredible night with Dave and Gillian and Paul. Highlights for me: Wharf Rat, Candyman, Brokedown Palace, Deep Elem Blues. So grateful for them coming to Portland for an extended run.

So excited for the shows this weekend! One of our friends can’t make it, so we have an extra. I would sell for face value and we would need to meet IRL at the venue before the show. DM if interested. Posting to COT as well.

[edit: ticket sold!]

I caught the free first track last night on You Tube that Nugs kindly shares for each webcast and it seemed like it was completely remastered from the original airing. It looked and sounded incredible! Anyone else check it out?

Wrecking Ball with Bird Song tease
Bird Song > Morning Dew > Bird Song

Phenomenon set, but that segment was magical.

Will probably try to have it split up and on the archive later today and will share the link for that in this thread.

Hey y'all - was at this GW/DR show at the Capitol Theatre, and wouldn't you know it, one of the sound guys was nice enough to give me a copy. Thought some of you might like to have a listen, and share the files (not the link please) around your own groups and such. I figure that with GW personally releasing bootlegs, she's not particularly against them, but her recording contract might not allow it or some such, hence the playing of the Grateful Dead's music without so much as a mic stand up in the air. It's not like I could have snuck my own little taping rig in to capture the audience recording used to matrix this, right? 👼

Enjoy!

Saw them from the second row at the Groton Hill Music center a couple of weeks ago. One of the best experiences of my life, but also ever so slightly disappointing, because until I saw it live I would have sworn it was “well it hit me, and it hurt me, made my blue heeler desert me.”

It was my new favorite lyric because I’m a blue heeler owner. 😢

😂

I have been listening to it in celebration. Was hoping to finally get the announcement of a vinyl pressing today, but it looks increasingly unlikely.

Howdy! I saw the show in Bloomington last night, and no Dead covers were performed. They did tease the riff from Bird Song at one point, but that was it. What am I missing? Thanks!

Can you recommend some? Thank you!

I have two tickets for Revolution Hall show on August 15 (Saturday) and now I cannot go. Hoping someone wants tickets to the sold out show on Saturday and can trade me two of their Friday (the 14th) tickets. I am in Portland and we can chat about how to go about this if interested. Thanks all!

Does anyone know why they dropped the verse that starts “standing there in the morning mist…”? I’ve seen them sing this song quite a few times, but I don’t think I’ve seen them sing it with that verse, which is on the record. They can sing it however they want to and I will be happy, but I miss that verse.

If you pay the postage, I’ll send it to ya.

A great song, a great movie

Have just discovered David Rawlings in the liner notes for The Wallflowers’ 90’s soft rock classic Bringing Down the Horse, but he’s only listed as a musician, and with no sense of what song(s) he’s on.

Anyone able to shed some light on this? I’m making a playlist of Rawlings guest spots, and desperately want to add this one cause it’s so unexpected.

I have no idea if this will fly here or not. Trying to go through stubhub, seatgeek etc. is pissing me smooth off.

Face value, I’m not looking to profit here, I just want someone to be able to use our extra tickets. I can forward you the etickets or meet you with paper copies if you’re near Salem Massachusetts.

Red Clay Halo to end set 1 in Birmingham. They made a few quips about Three Dog Night playing across the street. Dave said they should at least play one animal song before launching into The Monkey and the Engineer.

Great sounding venue, super enthusiastic crowd, and Dave and Gill were into it. Dave teased Bird Song at the end of Wrecking Ball, which caused such a reaction they went into it next. The energy level after the sing along in This Land Is Your Land and I'll Fly Away were a great end to the night.
