Share your favorite Grateful Dead concerts!

Personally, and I imagine for you other deadheads, the psychedelic experience goes hand in hand with the Grateful Dead. At their worst, they sound like they've never picked up and instrument. But at their best, they provide an experience so unique and profound words cannot describe.

Share the love around, and I hope through this thread we can introduce some new souls to their wonderful music.

Whats your favorite concert? :mushroom2::heart:

Never seen them, buddy. But I’ve always been intrigued. Just got Spotify so I might have to try them again (listened to some in the past before I came back to mushrooms, and the songs I heard didn’t do it for me.) Might have to give them a proper go 👍🏻

Was watching something recently on YouTube,  might have been Joe Rogan. No it was something about....The Happy Prankers?? They have  a psychedelic bus they’ve been driving around America for decades. Well anyway, the narrator said the Grateful Dead were so popular Because the LSD followed their concerts around the country, so too did the hippies 🤩. Awesome story....

Huge Deadhead here. Was seeing them in the eighties and nineties, right up until Garcia's last tour. Favorite concert is a kind of musical red herring, though, as would be favorite song. There are just sooooo many amazing shows I have on CD and now MP3. I have a few that stand out in my head, though none I can think of as a favorite. Englishtown is an amazing show, beginning to end. Some of the Radio City shows, back in 1980, when Brent first joined, are just stellar. I love Cornell, BUT have always felt that the hoards of Cornell-fanboy Deadheads ruined it for me with too much hype. In my estimation, while its a great show, its also probably the single most overrated Dead show in their history.

Some of the Red Rocks shows, particularly '78, are amazing. The Halloween 1971 show, part of which they used for Dick's Picks 2, is fantastic. The Dark Star (rare with no vocals) is transcendent. If you have heard that CD, and haven't bothered to listen to the first set and encore, which are conspicuously not present on the DP release, its all good stuff, too.

Many of the shows I have from Nassau Coliseum and MSG are great, as are the shows they did opening the Knickerbocker Arena in the early '90's.

Too many great shows for me to even think of culling just one favorite.

Oh and one of my very favorite earlier'ish Dead shows is the closing show in the Europe '72 tour. Fun fact: the second set's Truckin, Jam, Epilogue, and Morning Dew on the Europe '72 album were taken from this show. The album unfortunately and understandable leaves out the entire  awesome version of The Other One with a giant jam in the middle, a jam into Morning Dew, and back into The Other One.

Totally agree, it's a great show but I can think of a million other that don't get as much attention.

I have to say I've been blown away by their 26/28/1974 show @ the Providence Centre (Dick's Picks 12). The Spanish Jam is the most insane piece and takes the breath out of me. Also includes an awesome Seastones later in the set :eek:
