DEADHEADS...TOP 5 SHOWS.....

I was at the shows in DC 1973. Stayed both days and it was most likely in the top 10 of all time rock shows. We had a blast.

As a llways asorry for not using an overlay spell checker.Need op figure it out since I am not a touch typist and look at keyboard and get lazy and dopn't look over posts.I did not mean a Stones "Liver" show but at that time Keith probaly could have used new Liver.

My favorite year by far is 1977, anything from that era just sounds right to me. Although, the Nassau shows with Branford or the Manhatten Center shows from '71 would also work for me. Too bad all I got to see was the last few years, better than nothing but not even close compared to anything in the 70's.

Easier to discuss eras. Used to tape but didn't see shows until '82, started taping in '89. My favorite eras.
PIGPEN,Early 70's, late 70's, 1989-90 (Jerry found the midi). I don't count Vince. Samba In The Rain!!!!

What I was reffering to was the 4 CD Filmore '71 show on Arista.But Fishwater is right.Look at the more than 30 Discks Picks now out and how heavly documented the year 1977 was.A true rennaissance for them.Man now that I see what's out and how many great sets are availible (lopok at thier discography on the web site I use most foten AM either www.allmusicguide.com or www.allmovie.com and you can see how many great sets are oput their from different periods.But 69-71,Europe 72-73 (as keith and Donna joined) to 1977 thier are hgreat peak era's not shows for me.And you can find gems all the way up to thier 30th and final year.Man now i want to put all my jazz aside and listen to them and Tuna and see when Zimmy will get back from Europe.Only thing that is said for me is as good as Phil and Freinds might be at times Ratdog (Bobby's band) never was as of course.I just wish that sans Capitain Trips that the rest of the boys could play together as a unit.Let's wish them good health and hope that 2015 will be a 50th reunion of rockin geezers that will knock everybody for a loop and the Gen X and y'ers will tell their grandkids about.Hey the Grammy's finally got arounf to giving the most sucessfull touring band in hostory and lifetime achievement award.Let's hope that in these time of war and ploitical deceit that at least the goodwill if not the efficacy or "The heads" (and I saw my Mass Govenor Weld at a show in '93) aren't sneered at cnaically and the technofreindly kids of today who as a group might be lcking and sentiment political or oitherwise,among them are youngsters who are results oriented and may bring some of those sentiments to fruition fi we are going to survive as a species.
