A community for Deadheads on Lemmy.

Feel free to post music, discussion, memes, articles and anything else related to the Grateful Dead or the band members' side projects.

Only a couple quick rules, I think most should be obvious anyway:

  1. Stay on topic - keep posts Dead related
  2. Keep disagreements civil
  3. No NSFW (pornographic) content
  4. No racist, sexist, bigoted or violent content
  5. No politics (unless something is directly related to the band or its members) or other deliberately divisive topics
  6. Above all else, be kind, ain't no time to hate

Which do you like better? Jerry is in great form and love, love the backing band on this show, even without Melvin. They really tied the show together.

I'd have to agree, best Sugaree and best Mission in the Rain are def 2/28/80

that actually might be my favorite JGB show period, although it's hard to choose between 11/11/93 (GarciaLive Vol. 11) and that one.

There aren't many songs where you can definitively say it's the best version ever. But fall tour 93 man, they had some good shining stars and Hampton 11/19/93 is easily the best one ever, they need to release that show.. Positively 4th Street 12/21/79 comes to mind as a song where you can say that is hands down the best version.

man I have listened to 11/19/93 so many times lol, I remember sitting in my neighbors house trimming his homegrown weed with him years ago when he put that one on and I was just like holy shit man what show is this???

This show is spectacular.. it even has the second best after midnight> Rigby > midnight after 3/8/80

Actually a case can be made it's the best if you're more into the midnight than the rigby.
