It’s actually kinda cool to sit there, although I’ve never done it at MSG.

Eggy is currently objectively the second greatest jamband after Phish, if you have my exact taste in music. It's just facts.

The #gratefuldead played #shorelineamphitheatre 39 times (‘87-‘95). I was fortunate enough to be in attendance for 38 of those performances. Today is the anniversary of the show I missed (10.4.87). My favorite version of Jack Straw opened the show. Give it a listen — a note for note masterpiece!

Such an incredible song — I experienced quite a gamut of emotions while listening to it the other night. I love that we get to have so many wonderful experiences while in this lifetime.

@davidlemieux.bsky.social Off the top of your head, can you recall the most notable Phil bomb crescendo in To Lay Me Down?

Never heard a note of this show before today. Exceptionally well played for the era. Got a couple of American Beauty classics, a dual homage to Pigpen, straight 🔥 from Jerry on Watchtower and a gorgeous Stella Blue. #TIGDH

Hey Doc, if you wanna trade teams, try giving the Giants a watch. A truly disgusting product!

Surprised I haven’t seen a skeet about the 50th anniversary of this gem. Best intro period! #tigdh

I’m sure that we can all relate to a moment or a period of time where everything clicked and the course of our lives was changed forever. For me, that happened 38 years ago today! I was 16 and took LSD for the first time. I found my place on the bus and have been on it ever since! 🌹💀⚡️#gratefuldead

My wife is hilarious — last song was called “Maybe So, Maybe Not” and this one is called “Nightshades.” #phish
