Heavy hitter 3rd set to say the least!
-Perrinswolf (06/13/2007)


This is a smoking second set. The Other One is the inferno. You wonder if these are humans or aliens making music. Top shelf '73 to be sure.
-Anonymous (01/28/2008)


err, I mean third set. It's all good...
-Anonymous (01/28/2008)


The Playing in the Band is off the hook.
-Bamski (05/19/2008)


I don't think this show is as good as people say - I listened to the soundboard at LMA and there are a number of mixing problems throughout the show. Most prominent was during the freaked out sequence during The Other One where all you could hear was Jerry. Jerry's voice was crackling up in the latter half of the show too if I recall. The playing was all that too tight. I give this show an average rating.

this was my last show, my last blow job, and my last birthday.

K srsly, how many times a year does Jerry have laryngitis? It seems like every other day I listen to a show where his voice sounds like he's about to cough up a lung
-Anonymous (02/21/2010)


I was there and remember two things from that concert. A sign saying "Donald is the Duck"; and the word "imbroglio" flying through my mind. &&&&&

Hey Tim, did you swallow?

Unfiltered camels and blow tends not to be good for the singing voice

Set 1

Me and My Uncle - Workhorse.

Deal - To the point. Tight.

Tennessee Jed - Good Jed

The Race Is On - Jangly good time music.

China > Rider - Excellent Cat!/feeling groovy/Tight Rider. Really nice.

They Love Each Other - Flawed but impossible to ignore.

Playing In The Band - Jerry, Bill & Phil take no time asserting themselves. Super busy/punchy Phil in action. This take never truly goes '73/Mellow for long at all. A persistent thumper. It rocks ! A real good time.

Set 2

Promised Land - Good rocking.

Brown Eyed Women - A woolly woman.

Mexicali Blues - Standard Mexicaliness.

Row Jimmy - Great vocals from Jerry.

Big Railroad Blues - Juke joint vibes. Rocking.

Greatest Story Ever Told - Another smoking version !

Here Comes Sunshine - Great energy. This tune is a gem of '73.

Big River - I give it 10 pans of cornbread.

Loser - They dealt a straight.

El Paso - Standard goodness.

Casey Jones - Textbook/solid.

Set 3 is Sweet

Truckin' - Sweet jam. Nobody's Fault included. The 13 minute mark is really something! Nice work. Classic mid 70's Dead. Gotta love Truckin'....especially from 72-74.

The Other One - Peyote friendly at the 5ish mark. Fantastic sounds are invading my headphones. Great atmosphere.

Eyes of the World - Standardize. Still dance worthy.

Stella Blue - The best yet. Just listen. Jerry's voice even while strained is perfect here. Left me wanting for nothing.

Sugar Magnolia - It rocks and rolls and boogies and rolls some more.

Johnny B. Goode - A Berry good closer.

Of the 30 songs played the 25 above I would download and spin again.

25 of 30 is a grade of 83.33%

Cheers!

If anyone ever updates/corrects the database, the city should be Goleta, not Santa Barbara.

It wasn't your first blowjob!

It was MY first blowjob!

Find some other show to make it your first!
-Anonymous (08/24/2019)


My dad went to the show and still has his stub. Pretty sure it says Santa Barbara.


-Noble Willingham (10/15/2021)


Well, the foreplay to the dude's blowjob happened during Let It Grow.
-Dolores is Not Dead (10/17/2021)


Dolores that would have been a perfect joke if only Let it Grow was actually on the setlist. I think it's the only song not on that colassal slate.
-Anonymous (05/20/2022)


I think BIODTL is unique in that the best version is the one from the album, not any live version. It's fine live but other than the number of beats to start, it's basically always the same. A short, fun little diddy but that album cut is fantastic. The driving beat, Bobby's playful vocal on the "... going back to that shack..." section. It's all great.
-Jack Straw (05/19/2023)
