I went to ratdog on saturday in boston and it was so sick. I ate some mushrooms and just felt the music. He played Greatest Story Ever Told and Althea for the first time this year. An isane Slipknot! and a thumpin HOTW. I highly reccomend seeing Ratdog is you are into the Dead. Bobby's vocals are a bit off but the band is incredible. I was diggin' every second of the show. It was heaven for me. SETLIST: I: Jam > Jack Straw > Cassidy > Bird Song > Odessa > Lazy River Road > Deep Elem Blues, Greatest Story Ever Told, Help on the Way > Slipknot! II: Black Throated Wind@, A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall@, Good Morning Little Schoolgirl, Althea > Ashes and Glass > Stuff, Sugaree > Bird Song > Cassidy > One More Saturday Night E: Get on the Bus*, Franklin's Tower
I saw them..well, now that I think about it, about a year ago this week. One of the most emotional music experiences I've ever had.
Good to hear he's bringing the insane freight train energy forward into the spring. This pic is from 12/2/05 Denver Fillmore. Copyright (and I really do file..how weird is that?) moi. and I should correct that 2004... since it was 2005. .
