We've got music from every single studio album and a bevy of live albums, to boot. There are celebrated live performances from the 70s and 80s and official videos with more skeletons than you can shake your bones at, an exclusive seaside series on what's to come from the band's rich catalog and details on meet-ups all across the promised land. If it's community you’re after, try your hand at our yearly DEAD COVERS PROJECT competition and connect with fellow Dead Heads around the world.

I mean I guess but why not take psychedelics and enjoy the dead as well? And honestly while you are capable of enjoying the music sober , the music is by the dosed for the dosed. It really only makes sense on LSD , there music literally sounds like it's turned upside down when your dosed. You can have a much larger appreciation for the music because that's how it was intended to be heard .

When any chorus occurred, everyone went nuts. The entire concert. I have experienced this in a few Dead shows. What seems to have happened is that we all went off into our own trip during a stanza, because we all tripped out. But when the chorus brought us all back together, we seemed to be one person again. We would all just start yelling because we were so happy to be among a large group. I still have my shirt from this concert.

The result was that those people on considerable amounts of psychedelics (me?) saw the drops as light breaking through the shirts. Cherry juice at the entrance... miracle ticket signs... Marlboro signs larger than life... This concert was everything. Please crank this song and dance.

It's so cool seeing Jerry playing off of Brent's energy throughout this performance. Brent is constantly making Jerry smile in musical bliss throughout every show during this period, and Jerry really does feed off of that in both his vocals and his guitar playing, as illustrated several times here. You can actually physically see the deep, innate, unspoken musical connection they had with one another. They were a great musical match.

@@cosmicslopass hell, I think if Brent hadn’t died jerry may not have died so soon after. It seemed like he was the light for Jerry during those years. It was always just a matter of time for Jerry, but his health took a drastic turn for the worse after Brent’s death. Also, after Brent, Jerry seemed much happier playing in JGB than the Dead. Some of the happiest, best performances of his career until the big H got ahold of him again. At the end of the day, Brent dying and the pressure of constantly having to keep the Grateful Dead machine moving is ultimately what killed jerry. If only Jerry could have taken a well-deserved year or two off to focus on himself.

@@STSGuitar16 i find it strange that the band kinda just kept going after Brent died. I'm not even a big fan of the 80s dead (69-74 is where i get my kicks) but it was clear Brent was the future of the band. The band was in a firm direction and playing with purpose because Brent kept them on their toes. It's disgusting what the grateful dead machine became, Jerry was literally dying in front of the fans and no one really seemed to care. They should have taken a long break after Brent's passing instead of just pretending his death wasn't a total blow to the band. Like your brother you've been playing with for nearly 10 years just died , take a step back and re evaluate . There's more important things at stake then keeping a party going

@STSGuitar16 9 ай бұрын

@@cosmicslopass yeah man, i totally agree with literally everything you just said. 69-74 are also my favorite years, followed by late 70s and then ‘89 and ‘90. Don’t listen to anything after Brent just because it absolutely lacks his presence. I mean, they had to hire two keyboardists just to try to fill the massive hole Brent left, and obviously it just wasn’t anywhere near the same. They also got suuuuuper cheesy midi sound going a lot in the early 90s that I don’t care for at all. But yeah, it goes back to the fact that they had literally hundreds of people on their payroll that depended on the band for their livelihood. I imagine it would pretty damn hard to tell someone (let alone 100+ people), “sorry, this steady career you’ve had with us for 15-20 years is suddenly stopping indefinitely and you’ve got to go find a new job to support your family.” I know Jerry felt that pressure probably more than anyone, but I’ve heard several of them talking about that situation. It became a big business (still is a massive business with the Dead and Co era) and they couldn’t just put the brakes on suddenly and bring everything to a stop. Plus they all said that if the Dead quit, Jerry would just go out and tour with JGB instead, so like I said, it was always a matter of time for Jerry after Brent. Videos from 1995 are straight up sad to watch, man. Jerry was obviously in a very bad way. I just don’t think there was really anything anyone could have done to stop it from happening. They were totally stuck between a rock and a hard place. Sucks that it ended up how it did, but hey, let’s just celebrate the awesome stuff about the band. They have given us untold hours of bliss and jams and I am very thankful for that. I’m 25 and found the Dead my freshman year of college and never looked back once. I was hooked instantly (shoutout to Skull and Roses Bertha and Mama Tried for being my gateway songs into the dead lol). I found the sound of the band and Jerry’s voice to be completely entrancing like no other person or band i had ever heard. They just had such a damn good sound. Their music is totally timeless now. It feels like it was never written, it has just existed for all of time. And it is every bit as incredible now as it was when it was happening live. Best damn band out there. Sorry for writing a novel here but I just felt like writing something lol

My one and only Dead Show...I've never been the same, and that's a good thing... Remembering my friend Trip, who passed away this week, suddenly, the Ripple hurts but it's all good in the End... I'm in my knees... "Dressed myself in green I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down Maybe read between the lines Had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling Turned around to see Heard a voice calling, calling, calling You was comin after me Back to me I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore Ran into a rainstorm Ducked…" 💜☹️✌️☮️🙏👑🇺🇲♎♾️

About halfway through this Bertha I knew that I was about to see the best Dead show that I had ever seen and I was right. I had been to some West Coast shows, some East Coast shows and a few shows at Red Rocks and Rochester and a few other Bflo shows but this one is still my favorite.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that. Look, music is very subjective and you really can't say that one musician is "the best", but I've always thought Phil was vastly underrated. Just listen to how good he is.
