The Daily Nugs - August 26, 2024
From Grateful Dead of the Day
In the last show before Keith joined the band, Pig threw down a righteous Hard to Handle and an insanely melancholy Empty Pages. And the entire band killed it all evening, particularly on the China> Rider and otherworldly Truckin'> Other One. Give the entire show a good listen at Grateful Dead of the Day.
Today’s 1983 show gives us the first-ever Wang Dang Doodle, but it is Phil's crushing bomb in the opening Bertha that will really stick with you. And you don't want to miss the magisterial, almost menacing Scarlet> Fire that opens the second set. Check out all the action from Portland.
