    Will you come with me? Won't you come with me? There's no better place to take a long strange trip with the Grateful Dead than right here. We've got music from every single studio album and a bevy of live albums, to boot. There are celebrated live performances from the 70s and 80s and official videos with more skeletons than you can shake your bones at, an exclusive seaside series on what's to come from the band's rich catalog and details on meet-ups all across the promised land. If it's community you’re after, try your hand at our yearly DEAD COVERS PROJECT competition and connect with fellow Dead Heads around the world. Heck, keep your eyes peeled you might even catch a glimpse of Pigpen on keys, Jerry in a GROOVE, Bobby tellin' tales, Mickey talkin' space, Phil and friends, Bill on the beach, or anyone from our extended family.

    It's all happenin' right here. Subscribe and you won't miss a thing.

    Our usual gang of idiots came from Mass. and if I can remember correctly the sound was better here at Rich Stadium than at Foxboro. No surprise really. After the show in the lot the air was so full of smoke from the fireworks people were setting off, everyone whooping it up, as a friend of mine put it at the that moment, it was crazy, like Saigon in 1975. Terrapin was great from the 1st time they played it, & as w/other songs they developed it, (the jam before "inspiration", and the power of the ending, especially if Phil was in a good mood) and then this song became a monster. Thanks Dave for this, brought back a lot of fun memories from a time & world when a 24 yo "Masshole" could always count on the spring, summer and fall bringing some joy & fun into life.

      Lydian floats...and the way they come out other verses to that spot before the "Inspiration" part is just golden.

      There is a sweet audio release of that Swing auditorium show from Dave's picks series. It's number 29 I believe, from a perfect Betty board given the plantagenet process. Its also HDCD and sounds like they are in the living room with you. I hope you can find video of the show!!
      Cheers!

    Did Jerry switch sides of the stage to be next to Brent once Brent joined?
