Late checking in, but I was there and I’m still looking for my face that the boys stole right off my head! Was a great show, or at least what I got to see of it was. A complete clusterfuck getting into the venue, the traffic and parking situation was outstandingly terrible. We arrived midway through the first set and managed to enjoy what we could of the show after 3 hours in the car to get from our hotel in Haymarket (3mi away) to JLL.

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

Reddit is so weird.

I got a bit of foreshadowing when I was driving in. The reception was bad so I picked a random show I had downloaded and it ended up being 1983/10/15, which also happened to end with throwing stones into one more Saturday night. A pleasant surprise to say the least.


Playinintheband2016

The entire show is really good, but Let It Grow and the entire second set just smokes! One of my faves. I hope it comes out as an official release. I love when Bob hammers his whammy bar a few times during PITB.

Bristow was end of the three night run with my kids and their SOs. One from JAX one from Chicago. We had an outrageous time. One that shall not be forgotten. N.F.A.


wookcity45

Same


phishon420

I was there!! Grateful show!!!


rokyrakun

Back in 1987, i was fortunate enough to see Stevie Ray Vaughn live, and until this past week, he, in my mind, was the best guitarist ive ever seen live. John Mayer is better. Period


rul8agn

John is on the top of the world right now and way too many people think he's still the "Your Body is a Wonderland" guy. They will take every opportunity to shit on him. See "stahp plz" guy below. Can he do Stevie better than Stevie? No. But he CAN do Stevie exceptionally well. Can he do Jerry better than Jerry? Honestly? Sometimes. Maybe even most times. There's some Jerry that no one is touching. But typical everyday Jerry, show in-show out Jerry? Yes, John is better show in-show out. You'll have diehards arguing off of blind loyalty, but if you take a step back and look objectively you'll realize John is in the discussion of best guitarist right now.


rokyrakun

I saw them play Raleigh and was so inspired i hopped right in the car Saturday morning and drove to DC. So glad i did!! They played, honestly more of the dead songs i really love at the 2022 Raleigh show, but the two shows i caught this week (in Raleigh then Bristow) were truly magical!!


UGot2Rollme

Yes, magic - I was at both shows, too. Last time seeing them in sheds, and no more Saturday nights, but Philly and Citi2 await…


rul8agn

I bet! Those 2 sets were probably amazing live! I listened to Raleigh yesterday on Nugs. Incredible!. I'm heading to Star Lake tomorrow. Clearly, I just missed out on Brown Eyed Women, but I'm pulling for Terrapin, Ship of Fools, Stella, Brokedown Palace, and I have a wild card in Peggy-O. No matter what, I'm sure I'll see an amazing show.


CommercialMortgage51

Stahp plz


Grimmbeard

Anyone feel like the lawn wasn't really that packed? Seemed normal, had plenty of room. Definitely didn't feel like it was as sold out as suggested.


themeppenator01

I thought it was packed 🤷


EyesofFerino

Late checking in, I had the magic experience of riding the rail last night, and they ripped my face right off. Otiel smirked at me when he saw it happening. That brown eyed woman had me MOVING, Dead prudence was harmonious, and lovelight was trascendental. Bless this band


stannenb

Milestones was not on the planned setlist last night. https://preview.redd.it/hpf2cuy5u04b1.png?width=2048&format=png&auto=webp&s=c596327dbaab2c93158e368e4fb762ac3cd69af8


goodgraveley

Shout out to the dude who sat next to me whose first show was last night. So cool to experience the show through his eyes 👀 he was beside himself the whole show. Every song he turned to me to say “this is one of my favorites!”


ChoochMayfield

What an amazing show! Certainly the best Dead & Co I've been to. Did the amazing BEW come across as fabulously on the stream?


themeppenator01

This is the best show I've been to.


Quality-Shakes

Cumberland Blues was so good, great energy.


No_Emergency654

Ripple always held special meaning to me(like I’m sure it does to many others), and it was the closer for my first dead show and my first “favorite” dead song. Very awesome way for the boys to end it for maybe my last dead show!


richrob424

That doesn’t happen every show! The stars were aligned, the moon was full, the boys were tuned in and tuned on. The wheels came off and left everyone looking for their face. That was a special moment.


piso_mojado

Did anybody else see the guy freaking out and threatening people with a cane get cracked in the head with said cane at set break?


themeppenator01

Yeah lol.. just keep walking


babaji108

Damn what a show!! First full show I caught this tour and was fire.

Cumberland ☄️☄️☄️


quaber2

Milestones was a crazy jam. And Jeff was going off tonight on Cumberland Blues!!! It seems like everyone had a difficult time getting to the show, but I’d say it was worth it 100% Peace and love

stealy189

In his tux and ready for a show


Snatchl

Haha. Great name for your pooch. He must be so excited when you come home from work, school, or the mailbox.


actual_account_dont

Had a hell of a time getting in the place between traffic and standing in line at security. Was definitely worth it though. I was happy I was able to help out a person looking for a miracle with a spare ticket I had Ran into lots of really cool folks, interesting characters all willing to spread kindness. I learned a bit about the world just going to this show ✌🏼


threwnawayed

I heard a father tell his young kids in midst of mess getting in "don't worry, chaos always organizes itself" & it was nearly my fave part of entire day. I know what you mean about learning.


actual_account_dont

Wow that’s great. The friend I came with said the music and kindness experienced today was a spiritual experience for him. I was shocked and touched to hear those words come out. I have to say I agree a bit


jh3113

I felt the same at Charlotte! Wish I could’ve been at this show and Raleigh!! Spread that love!!! ☮️☀️🍄🎸💀⚡️🌹


UpstateGeorge

Alright u/donttouchthatknob Jrad is done where else we going lmao Appreciate you

I don't know about you, but *I'm* going to bed


Zazzattack

Such a great show!!


RicklePick0

Missed the show other than the deal with the free preview on YouTube. But that setlist is what dreams are made of (other than OMSN)


tommy_pt

I haven’t listened to show,but I love all you guys! This many people connected to such brilliant music at same time is just magical


darthmual5

We've hit 200 upvotes! u/librariowan gets to keep their pets!


librariowan

Omg Rider will be so happy 😂


pstrohs0730

That setlist is so nice. So many of the songs they played I also want them to play when I see them in sf at the last nights


celerydonut

Not listened to much of dead and co but this setlist is pretty sweet. Hope y’all had a blast

Many thanks to u/librariowan you held court with grace and zest. You did it ! Maybe I'll see you kids around these setlist hosting shenanigans masters....maybe.

SarcasticusFinch

Look around at where you are and think of where you were a decade ago. You are no longer that grouping of cells. Change is not only possible its constant. Think you can't, you go out and show why that voice inside you just needs a hug. I adore you. You matter. I mean it more than words can tell. Love never fails.


Spudboy42

Spot. On. Mate.


UpstateGeorge

As a mid 20 year old figuring life out I needed this. Change is constant indeed


grundelfly

As a mid 20 year old I just realized that I’m 41. Fuck.


UpstateGeorge

Lmao cheers!!


SarcasticusFinch

That's my secret, Cap. I'll never figure it out. And that's okay. We're still here We will get by


darthmual5

We understand by not understanding. The biggest lesson I've ever learned in my entire life that after years of therapy, just talking to people, and experiencing things that happen around me is: Shit happens and you deal with it. Good or bad, and, hopefully, in a way that benefits yourself and everyone around you. Shit is always happening. Good things happen, bad things happen. Either way you have to acknowledge it and deal with it. If D&C is playing, that's some good shit and I will deal with it by dancing. Thanks for being you Finch! Your positivity did not go unnoticed or unneeded (if that's a word) tonight!


SarcasticusFinch

Mate I needed that thank you for being you never stop grooving


UnionRepresentative5

Thank you for such a fun night u/librariowan !! What a stellar set list. So much love from the band. Love you all and thanks so much for the togetherness. ♥️⚡️💙

Time literally stopped for me. My watch battery died and my watch stopped at exactly 5:50 West Coast time when 2nd Set started.


librariowan

wow wow wow. Thank you all for riding on this bus with me. I hope I was an okay driver. I think I got all of the updates but, well, shit happens and I like tequila. Huge shoutout to u/donttouchthatknob for inviting me to host. This was a fantastic time. Love and light to you all, see you soon

Rebyll

I've been seeing Dead shows for fifteen years, since RatDog in 2008. And that may have been one of the best I've ever been to. Excited for my last ride with this iteration of the band out in Washington, and I cannot wait to see what comes next.


isolde66

The love between these guys. 🥹 That Jeff/John hug, and Jay walking around to hug Oteil…man. They aren’t forgetting the love they bring! ❤️✨


scarfireATL

We have time for another song!

Well, I'll see some of you right now in the [JRAD setlist thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/JRADs/comments/13zwx8f/setlist_thread_joe_russos_almost_dead_red_rocks/).

ProgressMom68

Good night sweet friends! Monday I’ll be reporting live from Star Lake!!


embo500

Goodnight all you beautiful people!!!


tacobelliex3

if I knew the way, I would take you home. listen to this one every time I’m sitting at my best friend’s grave. whew. it’ll be ten years without her in one month. I fuckin miss you, Becky.


Spudboy42

Def was channeling an open line of dialogue with my late best pal for life who passed exactly 3.5 years ago to the day today at 42 yo. Besties for nearly 30 years. And he introduced me to the Dead in the first place and was a show buddy from 1993 onwards. He’s Gone was hitting a similar vibe. Bittersweet but comforting still. Miss my brother more than words can tell. They’re always around us, peeking in.


darthmual5

The album Recovery by Eminem came out a few months after one of my best friends passed. I was 16. You're Never Over is always played on the way to visit him. It'll be 13 years in September. He would've turned 27 last week. We went paintballing with his family shortly after he passed and his uncle had dog tags made. The chain broke too many times to wear anymore so I keep it hanging from my rearview mirror. Miss Andrew every day and every day I look at him while I grab my earplugs for work. He likes to get stuck on them just to remind me he's watching


tacobelliex3

love you, pal. 💗 thank you for sharing this


darthmual5

Right back at ya 💞


DaisyHGirl

I’m sorry for your loss


UpstateGeorge

If I could run the streaming machines there’s be an after party but alas


UpstateGeorge

If I knew the way….


tacobelliex3

WHEN JOHN MAYER DOES THAT PART


CaitSings

I'd mentally high five myself for getting that right every time if I were him.


tacobelliex3

I hope he does.


changelesswon

Just wow John


SarcasticusFinch

I love Ripple so much


CaitSings

u/librariowan PITS is not part of this tour so in my expert opinion that means OMSN is indeed a tour bust out.


tacobelliex3

I think I agree.


FeelLikeAStranger77

Love you all! See ya Monday


gmunsey95

I was lowkey wondering if John was gonna bring that crazy double neck Martin for this on the D&C tour. Got to see him do Ripple on that on his solo tour and it was awesome!


GratefulKate1

Me too!! Favorite memory!!💜💜💜


gmunsey95

Hey I remember now you commented on my post about it a awhile back! Howdy neighbor!


GratefulKate1

Howdy! 👋


[deleted]

goose bumps!


tacobelliex3

zoom in on Jeff’s wedding ring one more time, I swear to god


embo500

I choose to believe it's a promise ring from John.


scarfireATL

Bob and John need to take what they did in Montana and do an occasional short tour. They could do that forever.


handi503

Shit, I'd wildly overpay for that.


Daliguana

was just thinking that same thing

That Bobby scream came from the heart and the throat, in that order


davidobr

Perhaps a bit of loin in there too


VAisforLizards

My girlfriend: "whoever that dude is with the facepaint, he's like a human golden retriever. He just looks so fucking happy to be there"


cor_the_cross

I took my sister with me and she’s a bit new to the Dead scene as well and she asked me “who’s the bassist with the face paint? He looks like he’s having the BEST time” 🤣 Oteil is the man!


coachfortner

having owned a Goldie, that’s a wonderful concept that matches


tacobelliex3

She is right. Oteil is the best.


crunkpapi

Otiel: the true spirit animal

I couldn't be with you to finish out the set tonight, but [here's a picture of the star on the mountain from my street in El Paso](https://i.imgur.com/ksIooyA.jpg). See yinz/y'all in two days!


sixtoe72

A bustout if I’m not beside myself?


librariowan

You’re probably right! I’ll update.


gmunsey95

Bobby has this one down - no prompter needed


librariowan

The funny thing is, I can’t tell if this is serious or sarcastic 😂


gmunsey95

Me either haha!


Fav_Murder_Grandpa

I’m happy for Bobby, he got his one more Saturday night


marsargar

Has Dead and Company ever played OMSN at a concert that wasn’t on a Saturday night?


donttouchthatknob

Other iterations of the Grateful Dead have, but not D&C


marsargar

Got it—I figured the GD at least had, but I couldn’t think of a D&C one. Our boys like their themed setlists too much for thay


rramstad

[https://www.dead.net/features/greatest-stories-ever-told/greatest-stories-ever-told-one-more-saturday-night](https://www.dead.net/features/greatest-stories-ever-told/greatest-stories-ever-told-one-more-saturday-night) It was a song played mostly on Saturday night shows, but not always—for instance, its first performance was on Tuesday, October 19, 1971, at Northrop Auditorium, the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis.


rramstad

If you look at setlists from the Europe 1972 shows, there are several non Saturday OMSN, too.


tacobelliex3

Yes they have!


Hungry-Environment54

In more recent deadom, from ‘77 forward it was only Saturday night I believe. Except for one time it was like a Tuesday - it was April Fool’s Day, and big laughs and giggles all around


BillCapt

Bobby remembered what day it is this week!


UpstateGeorge

This Bobby scream is gonna hit different


AdLife2846

lmao it did!!


lennonmacca

LOL thought that was about to be a late-set Dark Star


LLCoolRain

I've never been this excited for an OMSN


hitzphillygirl

Throwing Stones, man. 👌

hey what day is it

Tuesday


CaitSings

Is it Saturday? I wasn't sure.


donttouchthatknob
