“One man gathers what another man spills”: big thanks to fellow r/grateful_dead’er who kindly kicked down their audience cassette masters from MSG 87. Awesome sound. Loving it. Playing the 9/19/87 show at a local bar next month. I hope to pay it forward...5yr ⋅ Leeroy218 ⋅ r/grateful_dead
I don't have any mods. Just cleared a 3 acre building site with a chainsaw and stock 99 taco. Dragged (drug?) all the pine with a tow strap to repurpose for a sauna. Manual 22RE 4 cyl. 152k.7yr ⋅ Leeroy218 ⋅ r/ToyotaTacoma

Forgot how great the 1980 Anchorage run was. Listened to an old copy of the first set of 6/20/80 today after work. Solid first set. Jerry is all over the fretboard. Thoughts on this three night run? https://archive.org/details/gd80-06-20.akg-claridge-healy.vernon.20205.sbeok.shnf6yr ⋅ Leeroy218 ⋅ r/grateful_dead

Listened to the sunshine>China>rider on this four times today. The transition between sunshine>China cat is crazy smooth. Forget what a huge roll Phil had in the harmonies. Amazing. https://archive.org/details/gd1973-02-17.sbd.miller.32580.sbeok.flac167yr ⋅ Leeroy218 ⋅ r/grateful_dead

Photo I took of Billy during spring Europe Tour in 2004. Live music hall, cologne, Germany, 3/28/2004. The Kolsch beer was flowing nicely. Maybe 200 people, as I remember. Raucous time, that tour.7yr ⋅ Leeroy218 ⋅ r/stringcheeseincident
