Concert at filmore is awesome! Love the 70's vibe they were putting out
3/16/69 is also bangin, hadn't heard that before! I fell in love with a lot of their early 70s stuff, but really digging the 66-70s too

I went to a Golden Gate Wingmen concert at Phil Lesh's bar the other day. It was better than most local Dead tribute bands, but was nothing like DSO or Dead n Co. It seemed like guys that just got together to play and didn't really know each other well enough to do good sounding improvised jams or maybe they just had an off night. They did do a eally nice "Ramble on Rose."
The show started off by Phil Lesh ripping me off for $5. Then I got a Makers Mark and Sprite for $8. Next I got a Makers Mark neat and they charged me over $10.
Besides that I met some nice people, heard good tunes, and would do it all again. This time I would yell out requests for better songs and bring my flask with me.

I'd Take GGW over D&c any day. Prefer it over regular ole Dead personally. Was gifted a ticket to see em off Shroomery during their first tour, started recording and streaming shows soon after. Listened to both those shows a couple times now and loved em. That band changed my life ~ about to hit 3 years without a drink after an experience listening to em (link is in signature if anyone wants to give it a listen) When they play together, they form a musical entity. Perhaps it was you who had an off night after Mr. Lesh gave you his famous shakedown
First time I've ever heard anything negative about em.

Heck Yeah!!! That Phil Lesh Quintet looks fantastic too!
Interlocken was one of the best festivals I have ever been to. The last time I went was in 2015. I would love to go again, but now I live on the West Coast so it would be hard to travel there with camping gear. You'll have a blast for sure. Enjoy it to the MAX!!!
My only complaint was the hot hot heat. Next time I would try to bring some kind of AC or maybe just a giant block of ice in front of a fan blowing on me during the day.

I had a last minute change of heart with lock’n festival. It’s just out of my price range. I decided to ride my motorcycle to Saratoga NY from VA to hit the rye bread festival. Going solo the wife has been informed and she’s not too pleased but the chance to party with some cool Shroomerites is calling me.
7 hour motorcycle ride through NY? Fuck me

Mountains of the moon>Duprees Diamond Blues>Dark Star
Dude, I was just about to post this. This is my absolute favorite version of Mountains of the Moon and the song that got me into the Grateful Dead! There is something so poetic and mystical about this version. Most people I talk to who claim to be huge deadheads don't even know what song I'm talking about, let alone what version. Right on!

-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

I spent my entire life trying to own a restaurant.... Trying to own someone elses restaurant.... Now I live in a trailer with 3 kids 3 cats and 1 wife... Ive given up the life goals to take better care of the little boogers. Ive traded 40 hours a week for 120 miles a day of driving to therapy and back. 3 hours 2 days a week of dance lessons. Some times it feels like its worth it. Sometimes it feels like giving up on life. Some times I tell the truth... Sometimes I lie.... I almost never take Casey Jane's name in vane. I've only done cocaine once in my life in 2009. It was my 18th birthday. I still will never take Casey Jane's name in vane. Its 1:03 am. I'm pitch drunk. I'm typing nonsense into an old thread about favorite songs. Maybe the songs aren't dead. Maybe they are just grateful to have ever been sung. I love you. Like you love you. Rest of you too. Even the ones that aren't the twos. Know what i mean? I sure don't. God speed.

Please DO NOT give up on your dreams. This one is completely attainable. Just start small and invest any money you make back into your business. Here is an example of how I would do it. Get a large barrel smoker and start selling ribs, tri-tip sandwich, and brisket to neighbors on the weekends. Include the kids for cheap labor and extra tips! Maybe put it on a trailer and sell at the beach or parks, maybe even at Homedepot. Give good deals, be extra nice, and have them to tell their friends. That word of mouth will get you more customers and will also give you a customer base. Next get a food truck, and then work into a restaurant if you still want more.
If you smoke it, they will come!
I know a few people who opened restaurants and this is how they did it. We also have a popular thing in my area called a pop-up restaurant, that could help you. What kind of restaurant do you want?
Back on topic. I can't get the song Good Lovin out of my head. Not a bad song to have on repeat. It could be that Macarena or some shit. Someone told me of a local Dead show on Wednesdays near me. I think I need a dose of the Dead. Might go in a couple days if I still have the bug, and the energy,

Drums -> Space Jam -> That Would Be Something is an epic sequence!

The 90's stuff was killer! That would have been an awesome album if they ever got to release it. So Many Roads, Days Between, Corrina, and Lazy River!
RIP Jerry

Dang loph! Every time I come across your posts it seems like you are talking about food -if YOU ever open a restaurant, I'll be there. Good advice to ^ as well. One should never quit their dreams.
