there are some killer shows from the 89 tours- this one at Hampton as well as the following night, Alpine Valley, Shoreline, Philly, I could go on and on listing tour dates lol. most people know of the Philly show I think because of the official release but that's just scratching the surface of the heat they were bringing that year. I'm generally a late 60s-late 70s era fan but 89 was another peak for them for sure.

I'll check those out, thanks for the recs!

 

the 2/28/80 Kean College version is pretty much my favorite song of all time, but I was wondering if anyone has one they think tops it?

 

Sam Grisman Project might just be my favorite Dead related band out right now, just discovered them last week!

man I have listened to 11/19/93 so many times lol, I remember sitting in my neighbors house trimming his homegrown weed with him years ago when he put that one on and I was just like holy shit man what show is this???

last I heard they were actively working on the script and I think a few other casting decisions had been made in addition to Jonah Hill. probably still a long way away from actually shooting the movie but apparently it's typical of Scorsese to keep things in development this long while he works on other projects. I dont think the controversy over Jonah's texts or whatever it is will effect the movie idk very much about that situation though

not a mobile app but Spicetify for desktop might have an extension that does what you're looking for.

I just did a full wipe of my system to try out Fedora KDE, XFCE & Budgie spins (I finally got fed up with Gnome not being what I wanted anymore after like 15 years of using it as my preferred DE) and didn't really have the same experience at all - even Fedora XFCE which you say was completely broken was working fine for me. I haven't run anything other than Fedora in a long time though so I can't really speak to the out of the box experience on other distros.

 

awesome Grateful Dead tribute band from Philly

 

a very brown Voodoo Lady from one of the first Ween shows I ever attended

 

Wish I had taken some videos (or even just a photo or two) myself, but here's a great clip from Dead & Co in Philly the other night. Anyone else here go to the show or see them on this tour? They are sounding better than they have in a while imo

probably not my overall favorite but I've been enjoying 89 lately

I was looking a few days ago and didn't find anything. thought about setting one up but I didnt wanna be responsible for too much of any of this ends up taking off lol.

yeah I know, it's still missing kinda basic stuff like moderator tools (or if they're there I can't find them, which is another problem) and I find the overall UI less intuitive than the web app. I know it's in the early stages and I'm not trying to shit on the app or devs in any way. just doesn't seem like the best way to use the platform at the moment.

had no idea about this, I've been using it in the browser because Jerboa is clunky and still lacking a bunch of features, thanks for the tip

 

almost impossible for me to choose a favorite from Workingman's Dead, every song is so unique and special in its own way, if I had to pick I'd go with Dire Wolf.

I actually use archive.org for a lot of live concert recordings. bands like the Grateful Dead and Phish have been allowing/sort of encouraging fans to record and freely share their concerts for a long time and it’s all just out there to listen to and download as much as you want. there’s also the official streaming services like nugs.net and LivePhish for higher quality professionally recorded concerts, the subscription is kind of pricey but I think the artists get a better cut than on regular streaming services.

other than that I do use Spotify a bit and try to buy stuff on Bandcamp to support the artists when I can.

 

I've seen them play Tender Situation live so many times but this one felt different. I love how pretty and uh, well, tender this song has become compared to the original Pure Guava version. Really hope they do another two nights in Philly this December like they have the past two years.
