stick to your bland cracker posts!
The best part was after you typed *yawn* so I was going to post:
It will all be ok so long as I don't ever have to see that stupid rainbow photo ever again.
You didn't let me down, Yada.

From what I've listened to, the Chicago shows were leaps and bounds above the Santa Clara shows.

LOL!
loved the fact the Sirius grateful dead channel played all three shows. but the mindless banter between the hosts before each show was god awful.
The first 2 shows in Chicago were fantastic. The final show wasn't quite as good, but it was fine. An amazing weekend for sure. I heard the last few songs from Sunday on XM yesterday as we were coming home from the airport. They should have tried to mix in a little more crowd noise, because it doesn't come close to catching the energy that was in the stadium. I can't wait to go back and listen to them all again.
I watched the Bob Weir doc on Netflix the other night and by god did I love it. Granted, a lot of it was my pleasure centers getting triggered by nostalgia, and they totally ignored/glossed over how close Bob came to getting kicked out of the band in the early years. But it was even more entertaining than that doc about 18 year olds making amateur porn in Miami.
I thought Friday and Sunday were best, but too close to really rank. Great weekend and great city. It was like the whole place was one big GD festival. You couldn't walk a block without seeing a GD shirt.
It was funny listening to the O's commentators on the radio and tv talking about the dead shows.
Glad to hear it was fun. Wish I could have been there.
Need to watch the Bob Weir doc. He was hot way back in the day.

I'm really happy these shows turned out awesome as I was a bit concerned after the Santa Clara shows last week. This is one of the few times in many years that I'm super disappointed about missing a run of shows.
as expected, those Dead and Company tickets are basically free on stubhub right now. I may be tricked into attending.
SIDEHUTCH, TAKE NOT OF A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF SCALPERS BEING SCREWED HERE.

what are you talking about? the only, "close to free" tickets are the ones where you have to sit hanging from the ceiling. any other seat is 500 to 5000 dollars.
How dare you interfere with his hyperbole?
