Musings on the Most Ridiculous Band I Can't Stop Listening To

Step right up, cats and kittens. Sup upon the milk of human kindness that TotD lavishes upon you. DRINK FROM THE NIPPLES OF HOPE, CHILDREN.
Ew. And I’m still keeping an eye on you after that MLK bullshit.
Fine: 8/31/78 from Red Rocks.
It only has the first ever Shakedown AND an Ollin Arageed Jam so brand-new and piping-hot that even the band didn’t know how it went AND the only Nobody’s Fault Jam from all of 1978 AND a steel drum-infused Jerry Drums AND the only recorded instance (that I can think of with no research, as usual) of Bobby fucking up the words to Playing in the Band AND a HoF Ship of Fools.
That’s all that this show has.
I wasn’t going to bring this up, but–using Time Sheath technology, Dr. King actually attended this show.
What did I JUST say. you loathsome titfucker?
10/12/77 from Manor Downs (whatever that means) in Texas, which is a state that enjoys the fuck out of itself, tell you what.
We’ve got a rare ’77 He’s Gone. There might be a reason for its scarcity this year; there’s a definite Rashomon thing going on: everyone’s got their own version of the song and they’re sticking with it. Also, their facial expressions are very stylized.
And listen to Garcia play real quiet-like on Black Peter. Real quiet-like Garcia? That’s some good Garcia.
PLUS the only 1977 Nobody’s Fault (marred slightly by an AUD patch up front), and it’s a unique one: Billy and Mickey are playing some mutant version of the Purdy shuffle, Keith thinks they’re doing Not Fade Away, and no one can remember the second verse, so they say ‘fuck it’ and play Iko Iko too slowly.
