    I listened and hung out with Neil back in Atlanta in the 70's and 80's and I listened to Greg and Warren and hung out with in Atlanta and Macon and Jax in the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's and I listened to and watched Dave in the 80s and the 90s in Athens. I'm sitting here 2024 with all my brothers and sisters dying and it makes me feel sad, but watching this show in MSG makes me feel much better. I've seen Cortez the Killer before, so many times, at little stages and at the big circuses, but this was truly an excellent rendition. Warren, Dave, and Tim look so happy and that makes me feel glad. Unfortunately, I think to myself that there are very few of us left. God bless you guys Knocking on heaven's door... Peace love and the Grateful... Keep the faith no matter what happens 00/00

      God bless brorher, I have listened to Neil Young since my early teens, got to see him play numerous times in Ireland where I live, in 2019 he played in Kilkenny where I live on the same bill as Bob Dylan, they preformed together for one song on stag, Dreams came true at that moment, I had just survived a brain tumour and I was one of the first concert back attending. God bless and take care. Brenny

      @@brenny2506 thank you, for sharing Brenny. One of my best friends in my teens in Georgia was Irish, I believe, from Mayo County, but I am not sure. I'm Italian and he's Irish and we hit it off pretty well and for a long time. We went to many shows across the southeast United States. I too, have had a major injury from a fall in the mountains. I get around good though, I'm thankful to Jesus Christ to be alive. I still get around well and hopefully, have a decade or two left in me, lord willin'. I've always wanted to see Van Morrison and The Chieftains. I imagine you have had a chance to see them many times. Anyway, keep in touch. I'll try to figure out a way to give you my email. KTF,JB✌️

    My little sister died on Christmas Eve morning this year. She was a music promoter in Portland Oregon a while back. She lost one of her legs due to a tragedy, and never really regained her self-confidence after that. And she always wanted to 'dance with the dolphins'. I can't imagine a more fitting tribute to someone who so selflessly spent her life trying to help everyone she loved in life (me especially...and we used to be 'boogie-partners' back in our youth...a million years ago). I picture her now as a beautiful spirit 'walking across the water' with her arms outstretched...and 'her legs are straight and strong'. .Thank-you for this.

    The beauty of this performance is that DMB listens to the people who sit in with them and let them shine (they always have), but Warren Haynes is listening to EVERYONE in the band and not trying to shit on them by overplaying. It's just real solid egoless musicianship all around.

    Warren is "THE" man. Dude can make some of these classics sound so great. Most under-rated guitar player in the world. I had been listening and thought something sounded familiar,, and decided to watch the video, and immediately saw why the leads & vocals were so awesome, and familiar. I'm pushin 70, and Hayes is passing all the great ones I've seen and heard through the yrs. My daughter turned me on to DMB yrs ago, and thought I would see how they covered this. I was floored, andI listened almost everyday, until I decided to watch the dang video. Thanks DMB for posting this cover.

    I love the version of this, “live in central park“. It still has Warren Haynes as the guest guitarist playing with them, and there is an absolutely magical camera shot during one of his guitar solos. If you watch it, there’s a camera shot over the drummers right shoulder, looking through the symbols at Dave. During that little camera shot, you can read Dave’s lips, as he is talking to Carter. You can make it a clear his day. He says “holy shit“ in reaction to Warren just killing it.
