Hey look a new post!
Yeah, I haven’t posted in a couple years, and even then it was a couple years before that... but the truth is, I miss writing about the Grateful Dead! And it turns out, I don’t do much of that outside of this blog.
So I decided to undertake quite an undertaking: I know I did this before with 1968 and maybe some other years? 1975, haha? but my plan is to listen to and write about every damn show from 1970. Yeah 1970! One Hundred and Forty-Two Shows! Second only to 1969 with 146. But actually I’m gonna do 143 because technically 12/31/69 flows into 1970.
I really just want to get a full picture of this iconic year; the acoustic sets, the formation of so many great songs (and two great albums)... I just wanna get a full feel of how it all plays out. And, exercise my writing muscle while I’m at it.
Of course I’ll post links to everything I listen to.
Hope you’ll dig it, hope you’ll read a few things, hope you’ll listen.
Cheers.
