Subject: what a show ... !

I've been up and down this archive and didn't even realize this was for download. However, what an effin brilliant show. A real gem from start to finish. And ya, it's got its flaws (very minor and barely worth mentioning), but the whole is the brain-membrane-riveting sounds of '69 Dead. The reviewer below had it right ... the Black Peter is great. And yet, don't pass up the Mason's Children ... it'll shrivel your conceptions of what has come before (well, maybe i still have a preference for the 69-12-28 version). The Dark Star, while minutely flawed, crackles along the spine. But ya know, it's here, it's downloadable, and it will not disappoint. And i'm from Jersey (originally), so you can trust me. Ha, ha ... no, seriously, download it. It's a cool show.

Subject: DOWNLOAD THIS NOW! HURRY! DO IT!

What if some big-time rock band that had been around for 40 years had allowed fans to record shows, including soundboard patches, and then suddenly one day the band has been decimated by death and dissent but realizes there's money to be made in downloads of soundboards and PULLS ALL THE SOUNDBOARDS. A scary scenario, eh?

Well, what if, by some miracle, an A+ soundboard got overlooked because it was kind of hidden in the shadow of 12-31-69, a classic New Year's Eve show. But what if this show had killer versions of New Speedway Boogie and Black Peter, and a great second set from beginning to end, including a nice 20-minute Dark Star > Alligator > Drums > The Eleven > well, keep on reading the setlist. It just gets better.

So, what are you waiting for? DL this now, before it's discovered and yanked like all the other boards! And, yeah, be sure and share it with your fellow traders!

Peace,
Jac in Tucson
