Listener comments!
	3:04pm Funky16Corners: There we go!
	🛒 ♥ 3:04pm Asheville Jon: nice start!
	♥ 3:04pm chresti: Hey! Hinky dinky deadheads!
	🛒 ♥ 3:05pm Lizardner Dave 2: Sticking my toe in the patchoulli-scented waters...
	♥ 3:05pm Uncle Michael: Hello...you hippies.
	3:06pm Sam Segal: One of my favorite Dead shows. Thank you, UM!
	🛒 ♥ 3:07pm Asheville Jon: if you're taking requests, i'm always up for anything from 6/22/73 Playin', Here Comes Sunshine, Bird Song, etc
	♥ 3:07pm Uncle Michael: Larry! Jon! chresti! Dave! Sam!
	♥ 3:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm taking a comfort break and will be right back.
	🛒 ♥ 3:08pm doctorjazz: Hectic here in the office, but REALLY REALLY looking forward to this (even if I'm not in the comments much). Will don tye dye when I get home).
	♥ 3:09pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Uncle Michael, Heads! Looking forward to the marathon!
	🛒 ♥ 3:09pm Lizardner Dave 2: Not quite a hippie....actually someone who is generally Dead-averse and has been told for decades that "You just have to hear the right stuff". So I'm giving this a shot. Full disclosure: my aversion comes from the fact that I attended a Grateful Dead show in the late 1980's at MSG alone and sober and they did Space and Drums. I wound up in a snack bar with a television watching whatever sports were on that night.
	🛒 ♥ 3:11pm Asheville Jon: i appreciate that lizardner. i pretty much always hated the whole drums-space thing at shows.
	3:11pm otto: #1 and only desert island band needed.
	3:11pm Funky16Corners: Bliss!
	♥ 3:15pm Uncle Michael: Doc! Pauly! otto!
	♥ 3:16pm Uncle Michael: no space>drums today!
	♥ 3:18pm Franco Twinkie: Today San Francisco is full of smoke, as is Marin and all points North. Fire On The Mountain, and every other goddamned place in the golden state.
	🛒 ♥ 3:19pm spodiodi: aloha, Uncle Michael and Disco Deadheads! learningwhiledancing
	3:20pm Dean: Look at that. UM already has the munchies.
	♥ 3:21pm Uncle Michael: My thoughts are with you and all my other friends in California, Franco.
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dead had kind of a unique start - really developing with Kesey & the Merry Pranksters' Acid Tests - LSD Happenings. The band was far from even being the focus : they might play - they might not ! Far from a typical club apprenticeship or residency. Strikes me that the Dead kept this sly orientation to courting the Muse - completely non-aggressive. See what happens. Not surprisingly - a lot like taking psychedelics : you can try & choose the right time & place - but you don't know what the trip will be about until you're on it really? fwiw.
	♥ 3:21pm Uncle Michael: spodi! Dean! Rev!
	🛒 ♥ 3:22pm spodiodi: windows closed again here, but i have it really good compared to much of the rest of the state
	♥ 3:23pm Uncle Michael: I have something special planned for the set break.
	3:25pm Dean: A friend of mine is working on a history of Hugh Romney, Jr.'s, exploits in Southern California.
	🛒 ♥ 3:26pm Jeff Golick: I think I really do prefer their early stuff.
	♥ 3:26pm Uncle Michael: The Appendix should be called "And the rest is just gravy."
	3:28pm Dean: I still chuckle when I stop to think about that nickname. Inspired.
	🛒 ♥ 3:28pm Asheville Jon: how am i supposed to get anything done the rest of the afternoon if i'm just gonna sit around and groove to the jams??? (no brent stuff pleeeeeeeeeeeze)
	🛒 ♥ 3:29pm spodiodi: i've resigned myself to a full day of slack. this party is just right. no sleep, no work!
	3:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Early on they were still freaking out with everybody else? & then it became about mediating relations between Space & Earth - as it did for everyone the further from 1967 it got... of course for the Dead - it developed that wherever they were playing became the Acid Capitol of the World...
	3:32pm bigplanetnoise: Listening loudly while I start reading Bill Kreutzmann’s book. And maybe a margarita...
	♥ 3:34pm Doug Schulkind: Imma stop chooglin' long enough to let everyone know that tomorrow on the stream... Busy Doing Nothing and Music For a Free World will be off, and... Dark Night of the Soul will be filling in, 12-3pm and Continental Subway will be filling in 3-5pm It's weird, but it's wonderful. Okay, back to chooglin'!
	🛒 ♥ 3:34pm doctorjazz: Ahhh, love Cumberland Blues, go Jerry!
	♥ 3:34pm Uncle Michael: Bob! Doug!
	3:39pm Mark R: This "Cumberland Blues" is on the "Europe '72" album
	♥ 3:40pm Uncle Michael: That is true.
	♥ 3:40pm Franco Twinkie: A good friend of mine worked with Bill Kreutzmann at the Stanford Research Center in 1964. Of course he had a ring side seat for all the hilarity that was to come.
	♥ 3:41pm Uncle Michael: Mark! Bill the Drummer.
	♥ 3:42pm Uncle Michael: "Bill the Drummer" has always struck me as funny. Kinda fell by the wayside when Hart joined.
	3:43pm Mark R: Uh-oh Jon, this "Tennessee Jed" is from the Brent era! Only in the Dead would a guy change his name from "Sommers" to "Kreutzman" for show biz purposes.
	♥ 3:45pm Franco Twinkie: Yes, my friend confirms that, Michael. But the way he makes it sound is they were all pretty funny.
	3:46pm heinseng: Thanks for Dead program. LD2: the charm and curse of Dead was the 50% probability the show would suck ... increasing with time and Jerry's special sauce.
	♥ 3:46pm Uncle Michael: heinseng! welcome to the show
	🛒 ♥ 3:46pm Asheville Jon: yeah Mark, I heard the brentosaurus and his clinkiness. it's ok, i've been on the phone for most of this
	♥ 3:47pm Uncle Michael: 100% good-50% today
	🛒 ♥ 3:48pm Asheville Jon: back to the 70's YEAH!!
	3:48pm Mark R: I like this faster-paced "Brown-Eyed Women"--maybe it was a cocaine night.
	♥ 3:49pm Uncle Michael: Not an unusual tempo for the time...though, as you say...
	♥ 3:51pm Uncle Michael: This could be Hunter's best pure bit of songwriting, in that it's a solid bit of writing, irrespective of the context of the Dead. Almost anyone could work with this .
	🛒 ♥ 3:53pm zzz: woo hoo! fantastic to tune in and see there is GD this afternoon!!
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm maybe more of a Hunter fan than of any of them. It's hard to imagine a time these songs didn't exist.
	♥ 3:54pm northguineahills: just walked 1.5 miles/2.5 km back from the garage. Wouldn't be too bad, but i was carrying my bag of documents, clothes, etc, a sandwich, and some beer, barely missed the T-storm A lovely 92F/33C outside (looks at my app) 85% humidity.
	♥ 3:55pm Uncle Michael: welome, zzz! ngh! You need to miss all of life's storms.
	🛒 ♥ 3:55pm zzz: missed the help/slip/franklin’s opener here but i suspect it included the absolutely classic bill graham intro??
	♥ 3:55pm Uncle Michael: yes...this is a concert, after all.
	♥ 3:56pm northguineahills: The only time I saw the Dead was a few months before Jerry died. I went, not b/c I liked the music (at the time), but b/c I was curious about the culture (I was 19). I had a great time, even w/ my bad trip, but at the time, I only danced to indie/brit pop (Boy would that change w/in the the next two years).
	♥ 3:57pm Uncle Michael: I wish you were all here in the basement. I never do radio with the volume up loud like it is now.
	3:58pm Mark R: I wonder why the Old Renaissance Faire Grounds didn't spell it "Olde"--seems like they missed a golden opportunity there. For that matter, they should have said "Ye Olde..."
	3:59pm Mark R: A particularly fiery Jerry on the Bertha!
	🛒 ♥ 3:59pm Asheville Jon: hey, I was at this Spectrum show
	♥ 3:59pm northguineahills: Any Dead tributes to the Bear (Owsley)? Also random aside, Sonic Boom's Spectrum does a great tribute to him ("Owsley"), which when I started to read about him, and got curious about the Dead.
	🛒 ♥ 3:59pm spodiodi: that sounds perfect, UM. been playing radio very very quietly lately as a peace offering
	♥ 3:59pm northguineahills: I think Jon just jinxed me...
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ngh if I play Lottery & win, your disarming IQ will be given the application a reasonable society would give it.
	♥ 4:00pm Uncle Michael: It was the former Renaissance Fair Grounds. "Old" in that sense...
	♥ 4:02pm northguineahills: @Rev Rabbit: I do have a geographical paradigm shifting database setup I want to implement w/ algorthmic models from my Master's thesis, but I haven't any takers, and/or lack the skills to shop them....
	🛒 ♥ 4:02pm spodiodi: Ashville Jon, i must have had a few friends there
	🛒 ♥ 4:02pm Asheville Jon: if i recall (a bit hazy), it was a three day run. "camped" in the park across the street from the Spectum for a few days
	🛒 ♥ 4:03pm zzz: have been missing the friday night shakedown stream webcasts, was a real treat and something to look forward to each week despite covid
	♥ 4:03pm Uncle Michael: At the time I first acquired a tape of this Spectrum show, it led to a belief that I still hold, that shows with first sets ending with Deal, were shows where Jerry was feeling it. The fun is palpable.
	4:05pm Funky16Corners: Was listening to Cassidy in the car the other day.
	♥ 4:05pm northguineahills: Spetrum wasn't named after the Philly Spectrum, but an Owsley quote reference....
	♥ 4:05pm Franco Twinkie: My friend was dogging Melissa, Owsleys girlfriend, and followed them to L.A. in 1966. He would go to their house and get high. I found the house, so one of these days we're going to stand out front and he'll tell the whole ridiculous story while I run the camera.
	🛒 ♥ 4:05pm zzz: garcia really could shred during Deal
	♥ 4:06pm Uncle Michael: zzz, he's about to.
	🛒 ♥ 4:07pm Asheville Jon: UM you should check out 3/22/90 Copps Colieum, Hamilton Ontario. show was intense. had floor seats about 10 rows in front of the mixing board. place was crazy. even brent didn't bother me that night
	♥ 4:07pm Uncle Michael: hahaha...I have that show.
	🛒 ♥ 4:08pm zzz: feel like ‘87 is underrated year
	🛒 ♥ 4:08pm Asheville Jon: there's a pretty good video of that show too
	4:08pm Dean: Hey, Franco, may I pass along your contact info to my friend who is working on a history of that place and time? Or if you prefer, I could pass along his info to you?
	♥ 4:09pm Franco Twinkie: Sure! It's living history as long as some of these maniacs are still walking around.
	🛒 ♥ 4:10pm zzz: maybe not as exploratory/improv heavy as other later years (eg 89, 90) but so tight and energized
	♥ 4:10pm Uncle Michael: Jerry is clearly having a very good time right here.
	4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Anything witnesses have to say about things like pre-illegalization University research of psychedelics interests me.
	🛒 ♥ 4:11pm Asheville Jon: video of this spectrum show: www.youtube.com...
	🛒 ♥ 4:12pm spodiodi: gracias
	4:12pm Dean: Thanks. He is Ben Klein, editor of this book (and nephew of its subject): https://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/bison/9780803285101/
	♥ 4:15pm Franco Twinkie: Oh yeah, that's the one with the nude hippie on a pole in the back round.
	🛒 ♥ 4:16pm zzz: haha yes franco twinkie. love naked pole guy!!
	🛒 ♥ 4:17pm Santos L. Halper: Nice first set UM, thanks. Interested to see what other treats you have in store...
	🛒 ♥ 4:17pm Asheville Jon: saw James McMurtry and Dave Alvin at the GAMH way back when

	🛒 ♥ 4:23pm zzz: i just heard for the first time last week a bunch of henry kaiser’s version of dead tunes. blues for allah featuring marilyn crispell was especially cool featuring long free sections, wild improv.
	🛒 ♥ 4:24pm zzz: nice to hear these early versions of some GD standards, UM
	4:24pm otto: Big fan of Jerry's "Side Trips" recording, too
	🛒 ♥ 4:24pm spodiodi: i had a friend who worked the door there for a while too (i was on Post btwn Polk and Larkin, across from the firehouse)

	🛒 ♥ 4:27pm Jeff Golick: @zzz: that does sound cool!
	🛒 ♥ 4:27pm spodiodi: actually had friends who were married there too, but i need to shut up. and i am. :)
	♥ 4:27pm Franco Twinkie: ZZZ, a friend made me a comp of his favorite Kaiser. One insrto manages to suggest Jerry with out been a slavish imitation like most adepts whack off. A brilliant conjuring.
	♥ 4:28pm Franco Twinkie: Spodi, keep talking!
	🛒 ♥ 4:29pm zzz: nice would love to hear the track if you know FT
	♥ 4:29pm Doug Schulkind: My elem is fairly shallow, but still it has me rather perturbed.
	♥ 4:29pm Franco Twinkie: Yes! I've been looking for this album for years.
	4:30pm heinseng: thanks now we know what they listened to in palo alto days
	♥ 4:30pm Franco Twinkie: This is the seed!
	♥ 4:30pm Uncle Michael: The Shelton Brothers must have had a hit. They reworked Deep Elem into at least two, maybe three sequel songs.
	♥ 4:31pm Franco Twinkie: I'm crying.
	🛒 ♥ 4:32pm doctorjazz: David Murray did an album of Dead music as well. www.discogs.com...

	🛒 ♥ 4:43pm doctorjazz: And Branford Marsalis (think I have that show on my computer somewhere)
	♥ 4:43pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I always liked the Dead - American Beauty was the first LP I bought (along with Bonzo Dog Band) but I never saw them because friends weren't interested or were tired of them. I should have gone by myself! Anyway loving this show both the shows and the influences. Thanks.
	♥ 4:43pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! Thank you.
	♥ 4:45pm Doug Schulkind: Suddenly some distortion on your voice, Uncle.
	♥ 4:47pm Franco Twinkie: I just scrolled on your flashing poster, Michael. Wowee Zowee!
	🛒 ♥ 4:48pm Santos L. Halper: Shakedown?
	🛒 ♥ 4:50pm zzz: haha UM, it feels crazy to think it but it’s been so long since i’ve been to a show and i was feeling a bit of that ooh what are they gonna open the second set with anticipation/excitement!! :)
	♥ 4:50pm Uncle Michael: Distortion may have been due to me not muting the monitors during the mic break.
	🛒 ♥ 4:50pm Santos L. Halper: That’ll do. Don’t think I’ve heard many of these from 74...
	♥ 4:50pm Uncle Michael: zzz. I know exactly how you feel.
	♥ 4:51pm northguineahills: Any Dick's Picks? or for that matter, John Oswald's amazing remix (2 CDs worth), of 70s live (Dead shows (Highly recommended, it got me on a Dead buying spree).
	♥ 4:51pm Uncle Michael: Gray Folded
	♥ 4:52pm Uncle Michael: Some of today's selections can be found on some Dick's Picks releases.
	♥ 4:53pm Doug Schulkind: The distortion was on the video feed, not the stream feed. I forgot that I switched over.
	♥ 4:53pm northguineahills: yes, my brain isn't hear, I forgot to put the title of the Oswald title. (I was distracted by realizing Oswald's name means 'of the wood". Yes, I had ADHD).
	♥ 4:53pm Uncle Michael: then no harm, no foul...not on the archive...whew
	♥ 4:53pm northguineahills: brain isn't 'here' (it hears ok)....
	♥ 4:54pm Franco Twinkie: My gateway drug. In 1970 there was a program on NET, precursor to PBS called Live From The Family Dog. They did Hard To Handle and China/Rider. I was a goner.
	♥ 4:54pm Uncle Michael: Those LFTFD clips are around...and so great. I have never checked Youtube for them.
	🛒 ♥ 4:55pm βrian: Has anyone been able to danse yet?
	♥ 4:56pm Uncle Michael: βrian! I'm dansing in my head.

	4:57pm prudy: enjoying the jam and especially love your moniker Michael...my favorite show as a kid...
	♥ 4:57pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, I found a pristine copy at the Amoeba on Haight Street a few years ago.
	♥ 4:58pm Uncle Michael: prudy! What was your favorite show?
	4:59pm prudy: Puffnstuff...
	♥ 4:59pm Uncle Michael: ahhhh...gotcha
	🛒 ♥ 4:59pm Asheville Jon: some pics from this '74 show: www.dead.net...
	♥ 5:01pm Uncle Michael: cool enough for a flannel overshirt in the middle of June...surprising
	🛒 ♥ 5:03pm Asheville Jon: well, you know Bobby is master of style!
	♥ 5:04pm chresti: Is that a Jerry doll on the turntable?
	♥ 5:04pm Franco Twinkie: Some sentiments are eternal.
	♥ 5:05pm Uncle Michael: Yes, chresti.
	♥ 5:05pm Franco Twinkie: This! Her!
	🛒 ♥ 5:07pm doctorjazz: Ahhh, Donna..
	♥ 5:08pm chresti: Did it come with a guitar?
	♥ 5:09pm Uncle Michael: yes...the guitar is cardboard
	♥ 5:10pm chresti: Oh, now I see with my glasses on. Thanks.
	♥ 5:11pm Uncle Michael: Show me on the doll where the bad man touched your guitar.
	🛒 ♥ 5:12pm spodiodi: i love the Jerry doll! :D i had to kill the video to stop network weasels, but turned it back on just to see :D nice
	♥ 5:12pm chresti: Haha.
	♥ 5:17pm Franco Twinkie: I am afraid to go outside and look toward the mountains. Last Saturday I walked out the front door at my moms to see a plum of smoke boiling up in the East. By the time I got home twenty minutes later it had turned into a thunderhead a ten miles high. We use to hike in that canyon. Gone.
	♥ 5:18pm Uncle Michael: Take care, Franco.
	♥ 5:25pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti just checked - it's thirty seven percent contained...a week later!
	♥ 5:27pm Pauly from Clifton: Best, Franco Twinkie.
	♥ 5:28pm Uncle Michael: jesus.
	♥ 5:29pm Franco Twinkie: My favorite. Every time we go see Chrestis family, we drive right by The Altamont Race Track. Still creepy after all these years.
	5:29pm Murray Newman: You are the best DJ in the Free World Signed: Your Dad
	♥ 5:30pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Pop. I'm shooting for the Axis Powers next.
	♥ 5:30pm Pauly from Clifton: One of Hunter's best, I believe.
	♥ 5:31pm Doug Schulkind: You've got that right, Murray Newman!
	♥ 5:32pm Franco Twinkie: Yes Pauly, reporter Robert Hunter was wide open to what hell had unleashed.
	🛒 ♥ 5:34pm zzz: drums -> space imminent?? hah
	♥ 5:35pm Uncle Michael: who knows?
	🛒 ♥ 5:35pm zzz: this are really great picks, first time hearing this 5/14/70
	🛒 ♥ 5:37pm Asheville Jon: how about Estimated>Eyes>Dancin 10/1/77? good way to kill half an hour, just sayin
	♥ 5:37pm Franco Twinkie: I heard the sound of a hammer hitting something. Is that the way to deal with a misbehaving tube amp?
	5:39pm otto: 72!
	♥ 5:41pm listener 126464: Hi Uncle Michael, everybody. Thought I'd never find ya's!
	♥ 5:41pm Uncle Michael: Jon, this PITB "kills" about that much time.
	♥ 5:42pm Uncle Michael: This is for the Phil phans.
	🛒 ♥ 5:42pm Asheville Jon: nice. you should have played the longest Playin. it's something like 43 minutes!
	♥ 5:43pm Uncle Michael: I considered it but is was too hard to build around.
	♥ 5:44pm chresti: It looks a lot worse up north, though.
	🛒 ♥ 5:47pm zzz: ^5/21/74 thay mega-playin. found it on vinyl (think a record store day release?) while visiting a friend in hamilton ontario of all places. takes up the whole record of course. told my friend that actually hamilton has some burners of dead shows (talk of the 3/22/90 copps coliseum show earlier)
	♥ 5:47pm Uncle Michael: listener 126464, were we hard to find?
	🛒 ♥ 5:47pm Santos L. Halper: Phil, he phanatic
	5:49pm Funky16Corners: Nice jam on this one.
	🛒 ♥ 5:49pm Asheville Jon: i'm just gonna throw this out there: best Weather Report Suite ever: 11/10/73. vocals spot on, jerry is just fluttering around amazingly, phil is all over the place, keith's accents are "right there", bob is doing the usual bob rhythm dancing, tight, tight performance, even donna is not 'that bad'. i don't know, you'd have to do a lot serious convincing to get me to change my mind, and i always go back to comparing any other to 11/10
	♥ 5:50pm Uncle Michael: I'll revisit it, Jon. Thanks.
	🛒 ♥ 5:51pm Asheville Jon: just for consideration when there's nothing else to think about. :)
	♥ 5:52pm Uncle Michael: Larry, you on kitchen duty tonight?
	♥ 5:54pm Uncle Michael: I resisted the temptation to include anything from any show I attended. Alpine, '89 almost got in.
	♥ 5:54pm listener 126464: Not at all Uncle Micheal, I recently rejoined the commuters in the Work-a-Day World.
	5:55pm Funky16Corners: Yes, indeed. Chicken paprikash and sour cream noodles. Starting momentarily.
	♥ 5:55pm Uncle Michael: I am so sorry.
	♥ 5:55pm Uncle Michael: Nice. Are the boys tolerating the noodling?
	5:57pm Funky16Corners: My boys? They are elsewhere in Castle Grogan.
	🛒 ♥ 5:57pm Asheville Jon: always loved that Phil "junp"right into it right there
	🛒 ♥ 5:58pm doctorjazz: Was at a bunch of shows. This one stands out in my memory (maybe not if I went back and listened to it...) liveforlivemusic.com...
	♥ 5:58pm Uncle Michael: they way they were all right there with him. it was something
	♥ 5:58pm Uncle Michael: Thanks fir that link, Doc.
	🛒 ♥ 5:59pm Asheville Jon: yeah, i agree. there are certain musical moments in the dead that i call a 'menacing' sound. that's one of them
	♥ 6:00pm Uncle Michael: Oh dear, only one more hour. I hope the band doesn't make trouble with the union crew.
	🛒 ♥ 6:01pm Asheville Jon: are we allowed to have this much dead discussion on WFMU? aren't the servers gonna crash or Ken's head is gonna explode?
	♥ 6:02pm Uncle Michael: I just wished I could have lured in Jarnow and Conklin.
	6:02pm Funky16Corners: For a period the Good Old Grateful Dead were as freeform as they came.
	♥ 6:02pm Uncle Michael: Donna screams on key!
	♥ 6:04pm Franco Twinkie: I WAS HERE!!!!
	♥ 6:05pm Uncle Michael: seriously?!

	6:06pm Funky16Corners: That’s cool!
	♥ 6:06pm Uncle Michael: My favorite HTH.
	♥ 6:07pm Franco Twinkie: It was a miserable ass Friday, just like today!
	♥ 6:07pm Uncle Michael: This is the version used in The Grateful Dead Movie.
	🛒 ♥ 6:08pm Asheville Jon: UM, have you ever done, or think of doing any kind of GD "side project" band show? Stuff like Kingfish, Legion of Mary, Heart Of Golf Band, Jerry & Merle, etc?
	6:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cartoon in that movie is way kewl.
	♥ 6:08pm Franco Twinkie: The air con in the palladium was not working for shit and the place was jammed to the front door.
	♥ 6:09pm Uncle Michael: Not till just now, Jon.
	🛒 ♥ 6:09pm Asheville Jon: ha! not heart of GOLF band, heart of GOLD band.
	🛒 ♥ 6:09pm zzz: stellar version, really the best. and this audience recording is also amazing. FT i remember you mentioning being at this sho
	♥ 6:09pm Franco Twinkie: Did you hear me and my sister screaming?
	♥ 6:09pm Uncle Michael: chills
	🛒 ♥ 6:10pm doctorjazz: Some treatment of Otis!
	♥ 6:10pm Franco Twinkie: YES YES YES!!!
	🛒 ♥ 6:10pm doctorjazz: (Love it!)
	🛒 ♥ 6:10pm zzz: i am so there with that whooping it up
	♥ 6:11pm Uncle Michael: That was a climax...in every sense.
	♥ 6:11pm Franco Twinkie: Fucking mad house! I've got tears in my eyes.
	🛒 ♥ 6:11pm dutchtheo: Baby here I am! Hey marathonian jammers
	♥ 6:12pm Franco Twinkie: Thank you Michael, I can go back to bed now.
	♥ 6:12pm Uncle Michael: That got me too, Franco. I need a cigarette.
	♥ 6:12pm Mailman Tom: I saw the Grateful Dead 20 times, starting in 1969.
	♥ 6:13pm chresti: Time for my funny cookie.
	♥ 6:13pm Uncle Michael: Theo! Tom!
	♥ 6:13pm Franco Twinkie: We we just kids.
	♥ 6:13pm Uncle Michael: I was still kind of a kid in '81.
	6:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco that is so righteous. It sounds like that too - packed & sweltering but might as well go for it. ...When they wrote 'what a long strange trip it's been' it'd only been five years.
	♥ 6:15pm Uncle Michael: chresti, have you accepted WFMU's cookie policy?
	🛒 ♥ 6:15pm doctorjazz: This must have taken a ton of listening to put together.
	♥ 6:15pm chresti: I was 24 in 81
	♥ 6:16pm chresti: It's to eat one at 3pm PDT, right?
	♥ 6:16pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Doc...I started in 1984.
	♥ 6:17pm Uncle Michael: To share!
	🛒 ♥ 6:17pm doctorjazz: Ok, time to head home, take you to the car, thanks, UM, loved it! (can put on my paisleys there)
	♥ 6:17pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I only made it for the last hour - but then again I never would have survived the 10-hour Grateful Dead-gigs. Hello all!
	🛒 ♥ 6:18pm doctorjazz: Hahaha UM!
	♥ 6:18pm Uncle Michael: Drive safely, Doc!
	♥ 6:18pm chresti: Yes, anyone else want a peanut butter funny cookie?
	♥ 6:18pm Uncle Michael: cha cha!
	♥ 6:19pm northguineahills: oy, it's gonna hit me $1200 to fix the brakes in my car...
	♥ 6:20pm Franco Twinkie: I mentioned this on another show, but what the hell.The New Riders opened the show, with Jerry playing the pedal steel. It was truly great, but as time has passed I know we saw a unicorn riding a shooting star.
	6:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Listening in 2020 - think of it...
	♥ 6:20pm Uncle Michael: dammit...gofundme, ngh
	♥ 6:21pm Uncle Michael: I've tried real hard Franco but I can't listen to Marmaduke.
	6:21pm Funky16Corners: The guitars on this Truckin’ are fire!
	♥ 6:24pm listener 126464: No kidding I was at this show with 100,00 others and the New Riders played without Jerry. My 2nd show I think.
	♥ 6:24pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, I had just turned 16 and was still a little green around the edges, but when The New Riders did Down In The Boondocks I KNEW they were telling me about the pain that was yet to come my way.
	6:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Every once in while he does this more Clapton-like tone & playing - more my cuppa sorta...
	♥ 6:25pm Uncle Michael: Lord have mercy, Franco.
	♥ 6:26pm Franco Twinkie: Except we lived in a post war ranch house in the suburbs 20 miles from Hollywood...but still.
	♥ 6:27pm Uncle Michael: I still don't fit her so-ciety.
	♥ 6:28pm Franco Twinkie: The metaphor is durable.
	🛒 ♥ 6:29pm Santos L. Halper: You’ve taken it up several notches with this set UM, everything’s been smokin’.
	♥ 6:30pm Uncle Michael: I'm happy you're digging it, Santos.
	6:30pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey UNC and everybody. Thanks for the gargantuan effort! " I need a miracle" and you delivered.
	♥ 6:31pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! My pleasure.
	♥ 6:32pm Franco Twinkie: When Little Danny played I Don't Know You a couple of weeks ago, it was freighted with new meaning. Things never change.
	♥ 6:32pm Uncle Michael: Oh, to have been at this one.
	6:32pm Funky16Corners: I wish Buddy had lived to hear this.
	♥ 6:33pm listener 126464: I think we were within a ¼ mile from the stage.
	♥ 6:33pm Uncle Michael: Numerous times I was sure that on a great night, the Dead doing NFA was the highest expression of rock and roll ever. it wasn't...but I sure felt that way.
	♥ 6:33pm northguineahills: I'm not the person to pander, but I need my car to work to actually make a living...
	♥ 6:34pm Uncle Michael: I understand. But there are people that would help. Just letting you know...
	6:34pm heinseng: dancing now!
	♥ 6:34pm Uncle Michael: good!
	6:34pm Creebie: Would have predicted Eyes of the World from this show. My brother was there and when he talks about when they played that when the sun was was going down you can tell it was magical.
	♥ 6:35pm Uncle Michael: The Raceway Park Eyes IS magical.
	6:37pm Funky16Corners: I heard that from my house, about a 1/2 mile away!
	♥ 6:37pm northguineahills: Maybe, when I get the courage, I'll ask a friend to set one up. I'd feel so dirty to do it myself.
	6:37pm Funky16Corners: I’m down if you do.
	6:37pm Funky16Corners: Got the bacon in the pan and a cider in a frost mug.
	6:38pm Dean: From the review in the NYT: "There was a noticeable lack of marijuana smoke throughout the area."
	♥ 6:38pm Uncle Michael: The surrounding area, maybe.
	♥ 6:39pm northguineahills: drools cider bacon!
	♥ 6:39pm Uncle Michael: mmm...bacon cider
	6:40pm Funky16Corners: The Raceway Park show caused a panic among the local gentry.
	♥ 6:40pm Uncle Michael: pearl clutching!
	6:40pm Funky16Corners: HIPPIES!!! They’re cutting through my yard!!
	6:41pm Dean: The headline: NEARLY 100,000 JAM JERSEY ROCK FESTIVAL Heh, "jam."
	6:41pm Funky16Corners: The dirty kind of hippies! Not nice like Tiny Tim!
	6:42pm Funky16Corners: It was pretty wild, especially if you could see the back road Raceway Park is on.
	🛒 ♥ 6:42pm spodiodi: encore. we demand it
	6:44pm Dean: Dig this: "This is it, man!" shouted Gregory B. Sutton 2d, a student at the Carnegie-Mellon Institute in Pittsburgh. "What else is there to say?" he asked, standing amid his sitting or sprawling friends. "This has got to be the last word--what else can there be?" he declared and picked up a Confederate flag, waved it and let out a whoop.
	♥ 6:45pm Franco Twinkie: Time moves on: My sister the teenage hippie, just called to tell me our mom, the reluctant Dead Head wants some fresh fruit. Gotta go into the fire.Thank you, thank you a million times Michael.
	🛒 ♥ 6:45pm Asheville Jon: thanks for the show UM!!
	6:46pm Funky16Corners: I’m awake. My buddy is passed out in the seat next to me. Our other friend disappeared into the parking lot.
	♥ 6:47pm listener 126464: I don't know if I'm gonna be able to find my car.
	🛒 ♥ 6:47pm spodiodi: thanks, UM! great show!
	6:47pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thought that sounded familiar. I was at the Town show. Great but couldn't find our car for hours, afterwards!
	6:47pm Funky16Corners: This was fun Unk!
	6:48pm Dean: A review two days later in the NYT estimates a crowd of 150K and notes "Rock Fans Leave Tons of Trash." Also, "Babies were born to two women attending the concert." Those two babies are about to turn 43.
	🛒 ♥ 6:48pm Asheville Jon: time to make some kind veggie burritos for dinner
	6:48pm KevinfromBayRidge: Englishtown!
	6:49pm Funky16Corners: My home town (sniff sniff...)

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 21, 2020

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Listener comments!
	3:04pm Funky16Corners: There we go!
	🛒 ♥ 3:04pm Asheville Jon: nice start!
	♥ 3:04pm chresti: Hey! Hinky dinky deadheads!
	🛒 ♥ 3:05pm Lizardner Dave 2: Sticking my toe in the patchoulli-scented waters...
	♥ 3:05pm Uncle Michael: Hello...you hippies.
	3:06pm Sam Segal: One of my favorite Dead shows. Thank you, UM!
	🛒 ♥ 3:07pm Asheville Jon: if you're taking requests, i'm always up for anything from 6/22/73 Playin', Here Comes Sunshine, Bird Song, etc
	♥ 3:07pm Uncle Michael: Larry! Jon! chresti! Dave! Sam!
	♥ 3:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm taking a comfort break and will be right back.
	🛒 ♥ 3:08pm doctorjazz: Hectic here in the office, but REALLY REALLY looking forward to this (even if I'm not in the comments much). Will don tye dye when I get home).
	♥ 3:09pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Uncle Michael, Heads! Looking forward to the marathon!
	🛒 ♥ 3:09pm Lizardner Dave 2: Not quite a hippie....actually someone who is generally Dead-averse and has been told for decades that "You just have to hear the right stuff". So I'm giving this a shot. Full disclosure: my aversion comes from the fact that I attended a Grateful Dead show in the late 1980's at MSG alone and sober and they did Space and Drums. I wound up in a snack bar with a television watching whatever sports were on that night.
	🛒 ♥ 3:11pm Asheville Jon: i appreciate that lizardner. i pretty much always hated the whole drums-space thing at shows.
	3:11pm otto: #1 and only desert island band needed.
	3:11pm Funky16Corners: Bliss!
	♥ 3:15pm Uncle Michael: Doc! Pauly! otto!
	♥ 3:16pm Uncle Michael: no space>drums today!
	♥ 3:18pm Franco Twinkie: Today San Francisco is full of smoke, as is Marin and all points North. Fire On The Mountain, and every other goddamned place in the golden state.
	🛒 ♥ 3:19pm spodiodi: aloha, Uncle Michael and Disco Deadheads! learningwhiledancing
	3:20pm Dean: Look at that. UM already has the munchies.
	♥ 3:21pm Uncle Michael: My thoughts are with you and all my other friends in California, Franco.
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dead had kind of a unique start - really developing with Kesey & the Merry Pranksters' Acid Tests - LSD Happenings. The band was far from even being the focus : they might play - they might not ! Far from a typical club apprenticeship or residency. Strikes me that the Dead kept this sly orientation to courting the Muse - completely non-aggressive. See what happens. Not surprisingly - a lot like taking psychedelics : you can try & choose the right time & place - but you don't know what the trip will be about until you're on it really? fwiw.
	♥ 3:21pm Uncle Michael: spodi! Dean! Rev!
	🛒 ♥ 3:22pm spodiodi: windows closed again here, but i have it really good compared to much of the rest of the state
	♥ 3:23pm Uncle Michael: I have something special planned for the set break.
	3:25pm Dean: A friend of mine is working on a history of Hugh Romney, Jr.'s, exploits in Southern California.
	🛒 ♥ 3:26pm Jeff Golick: I think I really do prefer their early stuff.
	♥ 3:26pm Uncle Michael: The Appendix should be called "And the rest is just gravy."
	3:28pm Dean: I still chuckle when I stop to think about that nickname. Inspired.
	🛒 ♥ 3:28pm Asheville Jon: how am i supposed to get anything done the rest of the afternoon if i'm just gonna sit around and groove to the jams??? (no brent stuff pleeeeeeeeeeeze)
	🛒 ♥ 3:29pm spodiodi: i've resigned myself to a full day of slack. this party is just right. no sleep, no work!
	3:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Early on they were still freaking out with everybody else? & then it became about mediating relations between Space & Earth - as it did for everyone the further from 1967 it got... of course for the Dead - it developed that wherever they were playing became the Acid Capitol of the World...
	3:32pm bigplanetnoise: Listening loudly while I start reading Bill Kreutzmann’s book. And maybe a margarita...
	♥ 3:34pm Doug Schulkind: Imma stop chooglin' long enough to let everyone know that tomorrow on the stream... Busy Doing Nothing and Music For a Free World will be off, and... Dark Night of the Soul will be filling in, 12-3pm and Continental Subway will be filling in 3-5pm It's weird, but it's wonderful. Okay, back to chooglin'!
	🛒 ♥ 3:34pm doctorjazz: Ahhh, love Cumberland Blues, go Jerry!
	♥ 3:34pm Uncle Michael: Bob! Doug!
	3:39pm Mark R: This "Cumberland Blues" is on the "Europe '72" album
	♥ 3:40pm Uncle Michael: That is true.
	♥ 3:40pm Franco Twinkie: A good friend of mine worked with Bill Kreutzmann at the Stanford Research Center in 1964. Of course he had a ring side seat for all the hilarity that was to come.
	♥ 3:41pm Uncle Michael: Mark! Bill the Drummer.
	♥ 3:42pm Uncle Michael: "Bill the Drummer" has always struck me as funny. Kinda fell by the wayside when Hart joined.
	3:43pm Mark R: Uh-oh Jon, this "Tennessee Jed" is from the Brent era! Only in the Dead would a guy change his name from "Sommers" to "Kreutzman" for show biz purposes.
	♥ 3:45pm Franco Twinkie: Yes, my friend confirms that, Michael. But the way he makes it sound is they were all pretty funny.
	3:46pm heinseng: Thanks for Dead program. LD2: the charm and curse of Dead was the 50% probability the show would suck ... increasing with time and Jerry's special sauce.
	♥ 3:46pm Uncle Michael: heinseng! welcome to the show
	🛒 ♥ 3:46pm Asheville Jon: yeah Mark, I heard the brentosaurus and his clinkiness. it's ok, i've been on the phone for most of this
	♥ 3:47pm Uncle Michael: 100% good-50% today
	🛒 ♥ 3:48pm Asheville Jon: back to the 70's YEAH!!
	3:48pm Mark R: I like this faster-paced "Brown-Eyed Women"--maybe it was a cocaine night.
	♥ 3:49pm Uncle Michael: Not an unusual tempo for the time...though, as you say...
	♥ 3:51pm Uncle Michael: This could be Hunter's best pure bit of songwriting, in that it's a solid bit of writing, irrespective of the context of the Dead. Almost anyone could work with this .
	🛒 ♥ 3:53pm zzz: woo hoo! fantastic to tune in and see there is GD this afternoon!!
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm maybe more of a Hunter fan than of any of them. It's hard to imagine a time these songs didn't exist.
	♥ 3:54pm northguineahills: just walked 1.5 miles/2.5 km back from the garage. Wouldn't be too bad, but i was carrying my bag of documents, clothes, etc, a sandwich, and some beer, barely missed the T-storm A lovely 92F/33C outside (looks at my app) 85% humidity.
	♥ 3:55pm Uncle Michael: welome, zzz! ngh! You need to miss all of life's storms.
	🛒 ♥ 3:55pm zzz: missed the help/slip/franklin’s opener here but i suspect it included the absolutely classic bill graham intro??
	♥ 3:55pm Uncle Michael: yes...this is a concert, after all.
	♥ 3:56pm northguineahills: The only time I saw the Dead was a few months before Jerry died. I went, not b/c I liked the music (at the time), but b/c I was curious about the culture (I was 19). I had a great time, even w/ my bad trip, but at the time, I only danced to indie/brit pop (Boy would that change w/in the the next two years).
	♥ 3:57pm Uncle Michael: I wish you were all here in the basement. I never do radio with the volume up loud like it is now.
	3:58pm Mark R: I wonder why the Old Renaissance Faire Grounds didn't spell it "Olde"--seems like they missed a golden opportunity there. For that matter, they should have said "Ye Olde..."
	3:59pm Mark R: A particularly fiery Jerry on the Bertha!
	🛒 ♥ 3:59pm Asheville Jon: hey, I was at this Spectrum show
	♥ 3:59pm northguineahills: Any Dead tributes to the Bear (Owsley)? Also random aside, Sonic Boom's Spectrum does a great tribute to him ("Owsley"), which when I started to read about him, and got curious about the Dead.
	🛒 ♥ 3:59pm spodiodi: that sounds perfect, UM. been playing radio very very quietly lately as a peace offering
	♥ 3:59pm northguineahills: I think Jon just jinxed me...
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ngh if I play Lottery & win, your disarming IQ will be given the application a reasonable society would give it.
	♥ 4:00pm Uncle Michael: It was the former Renaissance Fair Grounds. "Old" in that sense...
	♥ 4:02pm northguineahills: @Rev Rabbit: I do have a geographical paradigm shifting database setup I want to implement w/ algorthmic models from my Master's thesis, but I haven't any takers, and/or lack the skills to shop them....
	🛒 ♥ 4:02pm spodiodi: Ashville Jon, i must have had a few friends there
	🛒 ♥ 4:02pm Asheville Jon: if i recall (a bit hazy), it was a three day run. "camped" in the park across the street from the Spectum for a few days
	🛒 ♥ 4:03pm zzz: have been missing the friday night shakedown stream webcasts, was a real treat and something to look forward to each week despite covid
	♥ 4:03pm Uncle Michael: At the time I first acquired a tape of this Spectrum show, it led to a belief that I still hold, that shows with first sets ending with Deal, were shows where Jerry was feeling it. The fun is palpable.
	4:05pm Funky16Corners: Was listening to Cassidy in the car the other day.
	♥ 4:05pm northguineahills: Spetrum wasn't named after the Philly Spectrum, but an Owsley quote reference....
	♥ 4:05pm Franco Twinkie: My friend was dogging Melissa, Owsleys girlfriend, and followed them to L.A. in 1966. He would go to their house and get high. I found the house, so one of these days we're going to stand out front and he'll tell the whole ridiculous story while I run the camera.

	♥ 6:13pm Uncle Michael: I was still kind of a kid in '81.
	6:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Franco that is so righteous. It sounds like that too - packed & sweltering but might as well go for it. ...When they wrote 'what a long strange trip it's been' it'd only been five years.

	♥ 6:33pm listener 126464: I think we were within a ¼ mile from the stage.

	6:37pm Funky16Corners: I heard that from my house, about a 1/2 mile away!
	♥ 6:37pm northguineahills: Maybe, when I get the courage, I'll ask a friend to set one up. I'd feel so dirty to do it myself.
	6:37pm Funky16Corners: I’m down if you do.
	6:37pm Funky16Corners: Got the bacon in the pan and a cider in a frost mug.
	6:38pm Dean: From the review in the NYT: "There was a noticeable lack of marijuana smoke throughout the area."

"This has got to be the last word--what else can there be?" he declared and picked up a Confederate flag, waved it and let out a whoop.

	6:48pm Dean: A review two days later in the NYT estimates a crowd of 150K and notes "Rock Fans Leave Tons of Trash." Also, "Babies were born to two women attending the concert." Those two babies are about to turn 43.
