    With the passing of Phil Lesh I decided to bring you a complete Phil & Friends show from the last time I was lucky enough to see him - March 12, 2023 in Chicago. I really enjoyed the show and hope you dig it.

    Words can't express what the man meant to the Dead or the scene. We were lucky to have been able to be in his presence from time to time.

    I know this makes a longer Deadpod than usual, hope it doesn't mess anything up for you.

    This week's Deadpod features the second set from the band's performance at the Charlotte Coliseum in
    Charlotte, NC on October 10, 1989.

    A good example, I think, of why this was a high water mark in the band's performance history, this second set showcases their ability to improvise both in spots intended and unintended.

    The latter I think, is shown in the opening 'Blow Away', which despite some forgotten lyrics and miscues turns into a fine opening number. The jamming in the 'Help>Slip>Frank', especially out of Franklins' and into a fine drums, is an example of some more expected, but nevertheless, successful creativity.

    Lastly I have to point out how good 'Not Fade Away is here.. far from being mailed in...

    Howdy! I figured it was about time to get back in the saddle and get another Deadpod out to my wonderful audience..

    First off thanks for your kind get well wishes! They all have meant so much..forgive me for not answering each of them, but I'm having some serious trouble typing with alot of numbness in my right hand since my operation..

    This week I thought it appropriate to listen to a fine show from the great state of North Carolina, I could only wish that I could help the folks there who have been ravaged by the terrible storms..

    This is a well played show from the fall of '89.. a nice Foolish Heart starts things, and frankly I enjoyed every song in this first set. The highlight might be 'Bird Song' where Jerry uses a number of ineresting MIDI effects...

    The Johnny B Goode encore is also a nice touch..
