DSO in San Diego

Forums:

Any Zoners going to this?  A friend may be backing out and I may have an extra front row balcony seat that I'd like to get back what I paid for it.  Hit me up if you or if you know someone that may be interested.  Thanks

gonna hit anaheim tonight.

not sure about SD, driving around here sucks.

i have a floor ticket but am interested in that ticket. How much is it? Email in profile. 

show last night was a custom set.

king solomons...

chad wakerman from zappa sat in for drums segment.

Is this ticket available? 

Rec'd this, this am from a great friend.

Quite an awesome artist based in Oaktown. He & his wife have been in LA area for the past weeks and saw DSO last night in Bev Hills???

He cut his teeth GD-wise 72-74, and has seen DSO a good handful of times, over the yrs. His wife is Swedish & was not in any way into the Dead prior to moving to the states.

Last eve's space Garcia wanderings.

DSO put forth quite the show
4 hours + minus a 30 ++minute long break
in that vibe of the Dead,
E* wondered. I explained
The Dead did it that way, so forth with DSO.

the break we wait
 

The theater was classic old 1920s art deco.

like many places like Fillmore, the Great American Music Theater,
Warfield, Orpheum, Wiltern, Fox theaters, place i love and are perfect for shows.
 

Show was a mixed bag/random show

I was disappointed at first then got over it around Mission in the Rain,
an old time fav of mine
Two things when i moved to SF to go to college
I headed down the the Wharf and looked for that song vibe
Found it
and went to the Mission and do believe eventually walked the Mission
in the Rain.
So it hit me it was a chance to hear a lot of different Dead material

over their long history

as usual DSO nailed Garcia Weir vocals and guitar sounds.

a good Dead crowd.

Ages from 80s to teens

a lot of guys as usual

some old timers

talked to a couple

he knew Janis and was there from 1967 in the Haight

he met Jerry a few times back when and had some cool tales

funny dude. he re-inacted physically the meetings with Janis and Jerry

E loved it. he was a charmer. works at UCLA and saw all the shows

went on the road....300+ shows...jeez

his wife was Garcia struck from way back when

they had never seen DSO had heard the name but it was recently they saw this show

advertised and there they were

I told them they woudl not be displeased

i hoped i was right and i was by 1230 when we were out on Wilshire heading

to the car

First set went over well, 90 minutes of the more short songs variety

then the 30-45 minute break and then they got serious.

John Molo (Phil Lesh & Friends, The Other Ones, Bruce Hornsby etc) joined in the 2nd
half so they had three drummers
Drums > Space was about 45 minutes
 

Set 1
New Minglewood Blues..... Loser ....Me And My Uncle > Maggie's Farm
Mission In The Rain....Lazy Lightning > Supplication......Strange Man
When Push Comes To Shove....Dancing In The Street (in that late 70's style)

Now this where they kicked in big time
seemed like one long continuous set
Set 2
Liberty >Lost Sailor > Saint Of Circumstance
and here this was maybe 70-90 minutes of non stop sound
Terrapin Station Suite > Drums > Space > Saint Stephen > The Other One > Wharf Rat > One More Saturday Night

Encore
Rainy Day Women #12 & 35
 

this outfit makes Dead & Co. look and sound well.....not good

 

 

not sure how close you are to any of these

just for your info below

Baltimore and well you look
 

it is too bad

they already played SF at the Warfield

2 shows this past week

E is up to see another show

no more Cali plans it seems for awhile

we'll see them the next opportunity

 

there you go
 

The Dead lived and live on.
 

One More Saturday Night!!

 

 

 

Wow, they sure have been having some all star drummers sit in lately

Show was really good last night.

Did hodads pre game.

Place was ass to nuts though.

HOB is consistently one of the most hostile music venues for patrons.

74 shoe. 1 drummer vort.

Very good show... Turtle I agree the crowd can get a bit unruly . Nice hanging w ya ! 

glad y'all had fun!

What Happens in Vegas... so i cannot give details.   THANK YOU VORT & fellow brothers/siseters of DSO!  Myself and everyone else in the place was BLOWN AWAY and super thankful for the love/energy/music you brought.  Bravo!

 

Absolutely shredded the show at Brooklyn Bowel.  Which btw was not constipated (crowded) like shows there usually are.  Also fwiw The Linq Hotel & Casino completed their room renovations in the last year or two and its a good value for being 1/2 block walk down Pedestrian Mall to concert venue.  Plus an In-N-Out Burger opened up on same Ped Mall by BB.
