And a short time to be there"

30 yrs, huh? Thanks for every goddamn note, Jerry

We love you, we miss you. Rest in peace

Phish played a decent show on this day in '98

I love that each year the Internet reminds me that it's the anniversary of the Dave Matthews Band bus poop dumping incident

I was going to mention it in my post, but ran out of room. It's also fantastic, and one of the best of the early 80's

I listened to this for the first time in a while the other day. It's a great show. Killer first set & Playing thru Dew is some excellent GD

Yeah, it really was. My friend has the pictures, so I don't have any to post, but we were between Trey & Page both nights. It wasn't as crammed as the other rows, you actually had like an extra half row of space in front of you

My buddy won the Phish ticket lotto in Fall '09 & we got front row to both 11/24 in Philly & 12/4 at MSG

"don't climb on the fence, idiot!"

They really cut the funding for a possible pancreatic cancer vaccine? RFK Jr deserves the Mussolini treatment

While attempting to look up info about the DOGE guy getting beaten up, I forgot I was on the internet and searched Big Balls. I don't know how far I would've had to scroll to find the story, but let me tell you, it was NOT the top one

One day I won't get suckered into doing the tourist trap stuff while away. Not today, but one day

The pre-drums set 2 of 8/5/89 was the filler of a tape a friend had in college. I only heard it once or twice at the time, but never forget the way Rider came out of Playing, & Jerry's roar of a delivery on "I wish I was a headlight on a north bound train," & the crowd's roar in response. It's good

Big, dumb monkey don't go asking why
You know you don't mess with God's America!

She wasn't lying

New England is great, but so many people here are ok with walking around with shit* on their hats

I saw Phil & Friends play it once w/o Trey at the Beacon on 10/9/00, so I guess Phil liked the song

Setlists of 2 Grateful Dead shows from 5/11 & 5/12/81

Trey's 1st show or shows. Looks like he saw the He's Gone dedicated to Bob Marley

Anyone else get handed a "Stag Brand: Fresh Maine Broccoli" as the Tower Jam ended?

The person who handed it to me just said: "what are you, like an XL?"
Me: "yeah"
Her: "here you go, man. You're gonna love it"

She was right. 22 yrs later I still have it, it still fits, & still makes appearances

If there's one thing on Earth that runs deeper than the Mariana Trench, it's Catholic guilt

She's also worried about the amount of beer her & her friends have to get through the poker game being played next to her car hole. After this case, and the next case, there's only 2 more cases left

He's all yours now

Dick's Picks 36 - 9/21/72 (with like 10 others right on its heels)

12/31/72, 12/18/73, 9/19&9/20/70, 4/21,4/22,4/23/69, 12/31/69, 5/5/79, 9/6/80, 9/6/83

Sounds awesome. I haven't been to SPAC in too long & I'm still kicking myself for not going last Sunday

I'll always go to MSG, but btwn taking away the walkway & adding all the obstructed view seats behind the bridges, the renovation took a lot of the character out of the building

Definitely. I still remember showing up to the Phish New Year's run in '11 & being mad that they removed it

@bourgwick.bsky.social I just finished the Enjoying The Ride: East Coast pt 1 of the Deadcast, & props for reminiscing on the old walkway around the inside of MSG - I called it the ring around the garden. It made the arena unique & I still hate that they got rid of it

This summer has taught me that my old ass can only take 2 days of heat waves. On the 3rd day it's like I'm unplugged & my battery is running low
