The Daily Nugs - October 26, 2024
From Grateful Dead of the Day
Arguably the highlight of the entire 25-show mini-tour, today's show in 1980 was a sumptuous feast. The acoustic opening set is out of sight from the Must Have Been the Roses to the Ripple to the China Doll. The lovely sound, pacing, and ambience continues through the two electric sets as well, including on a beautiful Althea and a righteous Stella. Give it all a listen at Grateful Dead of the Day.
In the final show of the epic fall 1989 East Coast tour, the Dead turn in another bomber. The show is well known for the sinister Dark Star, arguably the best of the later years. But there is so much here from the bright opening Foolish Heart all the way through the heartfelt We Bid You Goodnight encore. Listen to it all.
