I was at that show , Bob said quote on quote " It nice to be here at the Garden State " when Phil interupted Bob and said, " uh Bob we're in Connecticut"
I love the way the interviewer tries to give Weir advice on how to prevent a microphone from feeding back from a monitor. Maybe he had some guitar tips to share as well ...
I love his certainty that the solution offered is not going to fix the problem. The members of the Grateful Dead can be accused of many (mostly benevolent) faults, but any shortcoming in EVERY FUCKING THING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT STAGE SOUND isn't one of them.
I have always found sound systems right on the egde of feedback most annoying. Short of re-EQing the mikes, (taking out that 1-3 K 'woooo',) lowering the monitors would have been the quickest fix. Pointing the mike at his chest as a fix??? Nope, Bob knew that right away.
I was there at that show and i gotta tell ya those boy's were on fire both nights 10/14 and 10/15 1983.A half hour scarlet>fire and then a half hour estimated>eyes into the drums trust me go listen it will make you howl like a hippie.
The boys knocked the metal out of me as well, though Iron Maiden Powerslave show is a gem from that era. After seeing my 1st Dead show I had time for little else as concerts go.
I’ve always enjoyed plenty of different music of course there was Elvis/AC/DC,Denver,Skynyrd,Stones,BOC, some others at a very early age my sisters or brothers records I wasn’t supposed to be touching playing the shit out of before my teens. Although the Grateful Dead brought me to another plane. musician communication in an certain way live on stage is something I’ve rarely seen ,except of course obviously stage show structure which is boring sucks bands & musicians have that talent and don’t go off into the abyss. I’ve always placed Iron Maiden into the category with the Grateful Dead as there musical tracks I believe are as deep and spectacular as the Grateful Dead , Iron Maiden is definitely there. Iron Maiden & Grateful Dead took me too a much enjoyed journey that is rich and deep of music from many areas and style. Listen to Maiden first early music through peace of mind . Even if you don’t care for them. I believe you will hear the transition of a growing monster of music mastery. A small sampling should do if you get deep into music you won’t be disappointed. I’ve never really mentioned this interesting common connection I’ve made between the two Bands except to my ol lady who doesn’t give much shit about these things and my brother who usually looks at me as He’s a deer caught in my head lights on most of anything until years later then he’ll mention something after his brain works on it for a decade or so. Yes I have go back into burned out wings of my mind that have been blown away pushed to & froe of things that can’t be spoken to remember wtf I told him. Now There’s a idea for a song or two in that statement lyricist if anyone wants to work that out. Call me.
Disc: 1 1. Alabama Getaway 2. Greatest Story Ever Told 3. They Love Each Other 4. Mama Tried 5. Big River 6. Althea Disc: 2 1. Scarlet Begonias 2. Fire On The Mountain 3. Estimated Prophet 4.

I never saw them, but my life changed just hearing Europe 72 from a box set. Disc 2 Truckin'-Epilogue-Prologue-Morning Dew followed by a Looks Like Rain bonus track (Time for a cryin' song). I was hooked for life. From that point I was whatever iteration of the dead I could. Whether it was The Other Ones, The Dead, Furthur, Dead & Company, Ratdog, Phil & Friends, and one time without realizing it at the time, (silver needle will do that to ya) Bembe Orisha. And I've loved every second.
@@snerdterguson listen to the Grateful Dead 1994 McNichols Arena picture of Trey and Bobby Weir that was my third Grateful Dead show I was 18 wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then peace brother
Haaaa! Was at this ctforum. Some gal who wanted me bad took me with and it was incredibly profound to listen to these greats talk shop & theory. there were a couple trey fanboys that may have been "feeling it" a bit too much for this adult environment as i recall, but otherwise cool to have witnessed. think she tricked me by saying bobby & trey were probably gona play together! Did they at the end? Can't remember... *edit: THEY DID! now i remember, was so sad they only did one jazz standard. Thank God for yt, I'd forgotten... musta been some good sumpin! Hahaha!
Earl Turner I have different musical tastes as well. I don't listen to just Grateful Dead. I like other "psychedelic" type music, and jazz. My personal preference is for stuff that's kind of trippy and spaced out. I guess I like some things that could be considered "metal" such as Jane's Addiction, Nirvana, and Black Sabbath. I also like some things that could be considered metal or "stoner rock", such as Hawkwind, and Motorhead. I actually even kind of like Slayer. But that's about the only thing that I used to listen to back when I could have been considered a "metalhead" that I still think is ok. No more Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Overkill...etc. As for newer metal, I don't follow it, I haven't heard anything that sounded interesting.
@@God0Mighty1 Very very old comment. However, Thee Oh Sees, Slift, are all newer bands that are a good damn time. Lots to explore in the modern psych rock world.
Same thing for me JGB 11/24/91 MINNEAPOLIS. I was in my metal jacket dosed hard and nitrous oxide was legal to have and sell on the street. $5 balloons were everywhere. I was stuck inbetween dimensions kinda. Then I heard Space from merriweather 85 in the car afterward and that totally melted me, I couldnt believe it was live.
just like trey in a way i was a huge rock hard rock and metal fan then i listen to phish at a concert then boom just like that i dropped metal and just listened to phish , the dead, and other related bands
many of us heads were converted, it is real music with real talent and not repetitive. I mean sure there were some bad shows but many more great shows, and i will always be grateful for being alive during the grateful dead years even if my first show was in 89 when i was only 8 years old and by the time i was 14 i had seen them over a dozen times
You can hear hard rock influence in some of Phish’s jams and songs (Guyute end, Thread, BBFCFM) wouldnt call it metal influence though, Maybe some in Trey’s guitar playing
The difference between metal and this kind of music is that this kind of music makes you feel good where metal just makes you feel aggressive. My opinion
Funny cuz when I met Trey backstage at a Phish show at UIC he poked fun at me for wearing a Dead shirt and hat to his show. So I laughed when he was asked to play at GD50 and thought of that backstage moment. Lolz
Awesome show, but it was just St. Stephen Eve! Early in the lore I wanted to believe Trey had seen the St. Stephen. But it’s cool to hear Weir remember the vibe after all these years. There was something special in the air. Turn out it was Trey, initiated to accept the jam baton a decade later.
All our Forums are cool! Last Friday we had Bob Saget, Mo Rocca, Nancy Giles and Peter Sagal. It was rediculously funny. Watch for some vids in the near future.
The end of this video is hilarious.... I just watched it like 10 times in a row. When Bob says "you brought the vibe man" and Trey reacts I literally can't help but LOL every time I see it. HaHaHa! Boogie on...
This is from 2005-2006-2007 ish. If Bob would shave and get a haircut, it would make him look young again. The funny thing is, when you look at the videos from 1970 and then 1990, he barely aged at all. Even in this video he doesn't look that old.
around 2:51 what type of moment did Bobby say it was??? I'm not familiar with that expression and I don't think it was Halcion,,,,,but I've had some "halcion moments" (not on purpose) that have been pretty trippy! but that isn't what HE said, right???
I was at this Hartford Conn. October 1983 show; they did St. Stephen (they did it there & at madison square garden like 3 days before). Like all Dead shows then it was fun. Tho Bob has it wrong; "I" bought the vibe....maannnnnnn! : )
Yep Trey...i remember shedding my Iron Maiden wifebeater and proclaiming `Where are the Flowers' after hearing the Dead and, well..........other things.......
lmfao..... were talking dead here..im assuming. I remember at the time it was my very first time "witnessing" the circus. We had an uncle who lived with us when he wasnt on tour, but never knew what this crazy thing he was into was until we drove through worcester and the circus was surely in town. I remember the 86 shows being very good.. 83... jerry in red right?..(maybe im mixed up) .... not sure ive heard em. (LINK!)
Daniel Marshall one of my favorite and best AUD tapes (Silberman?) -- still have it. HOT only begins to describe that one Daniel. The transition btw Scarlet and into Fire remains an all time burner, Jer got the cocktail juuuust right that evening.
Terrapin, it's hot from the very first note. That marimba at the start is not Mickey, it's Brent. You also hear it in the transition. I do recommend the SBD ( which is very dry ) A fine matrix would do this show just right. I believe that Dave Usbourne may have just done one. His matrix recordings are great. check archives.org ~ peace 83 was a fine year, especially for Scarlet > Fire. Saratoga 83 !!!!!!
@UAclassico Nice post hilarious! That moderator was such a tool. Like Bobby didnt know what the fuck was going on after pioneering the "Wall of Sound" Cheers
And to think that for all these years I never cared for that particular Hartford show very much. Perhaps it's time to have a smoke and give it another listen from a fresh perspective.
it was 1980 at warfield. the numbered seats and behavioral characteristics of the patrons left me with an impression the dead was like any other band to see. at the greek, on a friday in '83.. it occurred to me: giant persian area rug, or no.. it occurred to me that few people were actually paying much attention to the band. mickey and bill in back were busy with responsibility. brent played often times as if the folks were either further away from where he was, or not there. jerry would aim what he was doing at the audience, yet kinda oblivious of the ridiculous crowd in front of him- phil would look here and there, but the weir man would play to the crowd and get 'em really fired up at times. the only standard kind of rock performer of the bunch. looking around me, I noticed a good deal of everybody smoking, talking, eating.. exchanging this and that- (no iPhones, yet,) but a lot of the berkely crowd sort of ignoring this loud musical presentation we were all "watching." the people in the taping pit were the worst offenders.. kinda preoccupied with batteries and such, or pointing at this and that quietly, so as not to ruin the resulting product being manufactured. you didn't feel PRESSURED into watching the band play, at all. sometimes it seemed like the band strayed from any kind traditional "performance," ON PURPOSE. and don't get antsy or impatient when they're tuning shit. that's just counter-productive! I had just seen neil young at the cow palace, and that was so very different. the audience seemed to allow the dead, their space. let the mojo build, on its own.. if need be. spectators at trey's phish shows had hackey sack playing stoners goofing off and not paying strict attention to everything the band did. just let them play stuff. both bands: not saddled with any specific songlist. unless phish's show was a new year's surprise album reenactment or blues for allah great american music hall "make believe ballroom," hell: what a great idea- just choose an album and play it! neatoeriffical!!
Hmm, how much cash do you have? :-) I have A LOT of video to get posted. I will do my best to satisfy the Phish fans. Check out the other CTFORUM vinds in the mean time.
Bob did interviews like he played, he riffed on what Jerry said and added things here and there. Bob has come a long way since this interview, he seems much more comfortable with himself.
@krispysmurf amen brotha.. steve howe is like a perfect guitar player for lack of a better word but dude...(garynull)...theres just no comparing him to jerry or trey.. to say the word chicken scratches about jerry's playing is "straight ignant dawg"
it's funny that that dude is telling bobby to put the mike down to his chest to help...like Bobby has had no experience w/ what helps sound...reverb....etc.... yeah, this dude knows better. lol
That's cool Bobby saying maybe Trey brought the vibe but I guess in the long run John mayer brought the best of vibes! I'm not a big fan of Phish I've seen them play and not to dodge them or say hey they suck as that's not what I'm saying, just never been able to tune into them at a show the bouncy crazy naked chris Farley wanna be dude dancing across the stage, not for me but I know those who do irs all cool. Trey would likely remember the old t shirts and bumper stickers that said like I'm not a pepsi like slogan the next generation meaning psish heads. It's funny but cool to see video, and thanks for sharing.
I was at that show , Bob said quote on quote " It nice to be here at the Garden State " when Phil interupted Bob and said, " uh Bob we're in Connecticut"
“Uh, Bob Weir in Connecticut”
Garden…..Nutmeg…..Whatever….Just Play!!!
🤣
maybe he was joking. I was in a band once and id sometimes say "its great to be in *wrong city*" It was always funny how worked up people would get.
I love the way the interviewer tries to give Weir advice on how to prevent a microphone from feeding back from a monitor. Maybe he had some guitar tips to share as well ...
Dick's Picks Volume 6 - 10/14/1983
Dick's picks vol 25
Bobby sound checkin the panel forum...gotta make sure everything's just exactly perfect...
I love his certainty that the solution offered is not going to fix the problem.
The members of the Grateful Dead can be accused of many (mostly benevolent) faults, but any shortcoming in EVERY FUCKING THING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT STAGE SOUND isn't one of them.
yass grate days

"The exactly perfect brothers'
The just exactly perfect brothers band
Immaculate moment describing the intimate connection between the two greatest jam bands ever; incredible video
You brought the vibe, man
True musicians have an appreciation for a wide variety of music. Not surprised he was into metal.
“The pleasures mine”-Bobby - he has probably said this thousands of times
I was there at that show and i gotta tell ya those boy's were on fire both nights 10/14 and 10/15 1983.A half hour scarlet>fire and then a half hour estimated>eyes into the drums trust me go listen it will make you howl like a hippie.
The band was HOT in 83.
Ginsberg. #howl
Well, I guess I know what is in store for me on this lovely Friday night!
You're not joking
I love Estimated>>EOTW...
"you brought the vibe man" haha love it
Bobby does The Dude!
When Bob Weir tells you to fix the audio, you do what he says, not tell him to lower the mic. Lol
Watch out everyone!!
Bobby has a new slide!!
It is impressive!!! 7-1-17
Learning slide on stage for 40 years, lol
I Love Bob Weir Period!
I was at Hartford '83, they played St.Stephen for the second time in a week after many years of not playing it.
what a trip...I was at that show in Hartford in 83!

It's hard for him to open his mouth without saying something about a technical difficulty
...and the sound guy STILL didn't fix it!

Same here!
If you don't think the Dead is one of Phish's big influences, check out 12-1-84 at Nectar's.
@Jahagree
10/7/00 i was there, they played west la fadeaway chalk dust and el paso
This is from 2005-2006-2007 ish. If Bob would shave and get a haircut, it would make him look young again. The funny thing is, when you look at the videos from 1970 and then 1990, he barely aged at all. Even in this video he doesn't look that old.

Still a beard less Bob, what year was this?
phish to me is a mix between grateful dead and zappa. phenomenal band
I live where he went to “high school “. It’s a 4 year prep school
The caption should be "TV hosts tells Bob how to work a mic"
@UAclassico Nice post hilarious! That moderator was such a tool. Like Bobby didnt know what the fuck was going on after pioneering the "Wall of Sound" Cheers
Anyone else here have no clue what yellow bird is?
SOMEONE PLEASE help me find this concert!!!
And to think that for all these years I never cared for that particular Hartford show very much. Perhaps it's time to have a smoke and give it another listen from a fresh perspective.
where's that from? the phish book?
Thankfully it did NOT knock the metal out of Trey.
Unlike Bob, Trey has a very open musical mind.
What year was this symposium??
What year was this recorded? I see upload date March of 07 but Trey was arrested in December 06. Just wondering if it was during Oxy days
What year is this from?

Hmm, how much cash do you have? :-) I have A LOT of video to get posted. I will do my best to satisfy the Phish fans. Check out the other CTFORUM vinds in the mean time.
@Euphoriaman all good songs my man
how do you know he wasn't lying about what he said in the article?
Does anybody know when this is from? 90s? Weir looks...not as old obviously.
Lol at the end. Maybe you brought the vibe man
Come on sound guy, how hard is it?
Bob isn't as good a conversationalist as jerry but I still love him :O.
But he says shit like “more fun than a frog in a glass of milk” though so he makes up for it
Bob did interviews like he played, he riffed on what Jerry said and added things here and there. Bob has come a long way since this interview, he seems much more comfortable with himself.
@krispysmurf amen brotha.. steve howe is like a perfect guitar player for lack of a better word but dude...(garynull)...theres just no comparing him to jerry or trey.. to say the word chicken scratches about jerry's playing is "straight ignant dawg"
since when is the University of Vermont a prestigious school?
I like how Weir's fishing for Trey's name and has to resort to ,"ya'll's."
Uh no. He knew Trey dude lol
@@firstube He may well have known Trey but it was clear he couldn't remember it at that moment. Sometimes it happens.
! wa3 at those shows in 83
Bob is The MAN!
Phil is aswell!
But the King of all guitarists, is definitely Hunter Brown.
Haha,, Maybe you brought the vibe, man.
imagin if trey never went to that concert?
I would say, by all reasonable standards, that Phish owe the Dead about $30 Million Dollars at least.
No. I love the dead, but phish invented something of their own. The 2 bands are nothing alike aside from the fact that they jam
for what? lmao
@@herbythechef7624 lol keep dreaming. Phish are a direct rip off.
@@boofert.washington2499 lol ok. Tell me 1 phish song that sounds like a grateful dead song
woo ooo
hHHAHAHHA! i dont think anyone else caught that louis ck refference but fuck yea dude! hahah the best.
it's funny that that dude is telling bobby to put the mike down to his chest to help...like Bobby has had no experience w/ what helps sound...reverb....etc.... yeah, this dude knows better. lol
Why don't you write up a mini " Ten Commandments', on how not to take drugs!
I love the black guy sitting there like ..what the fuck?
Lmfao
Wow heavy heavy heavy
Trey is a badass. Cool dude
...ever since you didn't go there....
That's cool Bobby saying maybe Trey brought the vibe but I guess in the long run John mayer brought the best of vibes! I'm not a big fan of Phish I've seen them play and not to dodge them or say hey they suck as that's not what I'm saying, just never been able to tune into them at a show the bouncy crazy naked chris Farley wanna be dude dancing across the stage, not for me but I know those who do irs all cool. Trey would likely remember the old t shirts and bumper stickers that said like I'm not a pepsi like slogan the next generation meaning psish heads. It's funny but cool to see video, and thanks for sharing.
