Why 11/23/79 from Golden Hall in San Diego?
Because I am listening to it.
Is it a highlight of the tour?
Not at all.
Is it representative of the tour?
Fuck yeah.
How so?
1979 is secretly the wobbliest of all Grateful Dead years.
I’ve heard ’84.
Of course. That’s what they want you to believe.
Who?
They.
Bastards.
Aye.
OR
Just fucking look at Mickey. It’s like cocaine did a line of him.
OR
Does the guy behind the stage that’s facing away from the camera and bending over have a monkey hanging off his back printed on his tee-shirt, or is that an actual monkey clinging to him? If it’s the latter, I am not okay with it. Everyone needs to stop bringing monkeys to Grateful Dead concerts.
OR
Amazing how much Golden Hall in San Diego looks like Red Rocks, isn’t it?
That was my first show. Really.
Are you saying that stage left was the “fat man” side?
Come to think, that side was always rated to hold a few pounds more.
