That's funny - I think that's what I was listening to last Friday (I'm a sucker for Help-Slip-Franks in a setlist).

[Edit to add:] Got that Slipknot on again now. Oh yeah.

nice... read that and thought "yeah!", clicked stream and got Slipknot right into Franklin's (lucky draw)

nice call Del

Oh you can't go wrong here.

I personally think this show is better than the infamous 5-8-77 Ithaca show. Not to quibble too much - they're both awesome.

What compromises the third disc is essential Grateful Dead. What a great freakin band!

This show was in the very first box of GD concert tapes I ever got. An excellent show, to be sure.

Tapes... I am so old.

For those unfamiliar:

At least tapes are easier to label the side of. I don't know half of what I've on the shelf of CDs.

I went and sank money into a tape deck years back with variable speed in order to deal with all those shows that were just that little bit too fast or too slow. It was about then that I caught up with digital, and I don't think I've used the feature since.

(On that note, anybody got any tapes they want sped up or slowed down?)

The Max Awards Program officially concluded on December 31, 1995. Over two million Maxell consumers participated in the program and were fulfilled satisfactorily. Although Maxell's current audio and video cassettes contain Max Points, the points do not hold any value, and should be considered only as a form of "proof of purchase". Given that the Max Awards Program ended as of December 31, 1995, we are unable to accept any further requests for fulfillment.
