    Warming up my ‘73 receptors with a little RT 4.3 (Denver ‘73), that I just picked up today. I never skip MAMU and am always happy to see it in a set list, it’s definitely a favorite of mine out of the shorter tunes.

    Wait, I tried to check back through the thread to make sure I didn’t miss anything, but are you referring to the 8/27/72, Veneta, OR, Sunshine Daydream release? If so, I’m pretty sure the version with the blu-ray is still available on Dead.net.

    It's some dweeby Silicon Valley thing where you take just enough of a psychotropic to get the "****, I can't sleep" effect. It's a way to do hallucinogens that serves the man. Sad. So very sad.

    edit: Some say it helps with creativity and produces an overall feeling of wellness. Also, I've never microdosed. It doesn't necessarily interfere with sleep, but I was reading about it and saw it referred to as a the psychedelic caffeine. And then I though, "Oh, I did that in college when I didn't want to see weird **** but wanted to stay up all night and drink beer with impunity." :D

    74-05-19. Listening to both the SDB and the SDB/AUD matrix.
    The PNW box sets will blow peoples minds. Both in terms of playing and sound quality!
    (to bad about the mix problem though, it happens during a killer Sugaree and goes on for six songs. I wonder if they are doing a matrix because the AUD recording doesn't seem to have the vocal problems that the SDB has. or maybe they just got another SDB without those problems....)

    Blame Healy. The extremely narrow mix is certainly unexplainable. (Well, he might have been busy doing other things, after all, these recordings were not made to be released).
    Dave's Picks 4 sounds pretty similar (Healy again), but the band took more risks that night (double-time "Slipknot!"), so it's way more interesting.
    To be honest, I don't agree with some of the choices Dave made for 30 Trips.

    So explain this sound situation to me again? What exactly is the issue? I was really looking forward to having a Loose Lucy on vinyl, but does it have sound issues?

    As I have said before, I am looking forward to him just once giving up halfway through a seaside chat and admitting that the new release isn’t very good at all. Maybe once he has given his notice?

    I enjoy his enthusiasm, of course. He always gives good email replies too (well, he did until I sent him one telling him I thought Dave’s 24 was lousy...)

    I wish he covered this type of issue in the seaside chats or even just with a note on the website. They’re not going to lose preorders if they admit there is a patch here and there.

    During part of the first set, there are issues in the recording mix in which vocals and some instruments (?) vanish for 6 songs. The recording mix was separate from what the audience heard, which is the value of the Matrix recording. We do not know how or if the situation was remedied.

    And from the existing, previously known SBD recordings, there are large missing segments from 6/22/73, and mix or other technical problems in Bertha and Bird Song from that show, and most first set songs on 6/24/73. No word yet on how those things are dealt with.

    This is definitely something he should address. I'd like to at least have a heads up before i fork over $125 for a 6 disc show. If a problem does exist I actually might reconsider, I could buy allot of records for that money.

    I think and hope that they have better/more complete sources to work from.

    78-01-22 turned out pretty great once it was released.
    The previousley circulating SDB wasn't the best sounding and it had 4 songs cut IIRC

    RB: Weren't we told that these are "new" Betty Boards, rather than the currently-circulating boards? (which I assume are a Kidd Candelario production)

    The provenance of the recordings is unclear, although some here may have more detailed information.

    The circulating boards, if sourced from the now retuned "Betty Boards," would portend some difficulties.

    6/22/73, at least, has circulated from a Betty Board, which has now been returned to the vault. It's hard for us out here to know how many 73 and 74 shows have 2 different sets of reel masters available, so we can only hope.

    Listening to this show, they must have found a way to bring the vocals back or i have to think it would be deemed unreleasable - at least as a $130 6 LP Box Set.

    I love that we have a Contiguous Dark Star Corollary. This is the kind of thing you can build an empire on.
