Big difference from then to now. It's all hipsterfied with cool restaurants and bars all around and it's one of those places where people get out of their cars and walk.

Tonight is the Zen Tricksters sold out show on Long Island.
Yeah me too. Ya gotta figure someone got a decent recording that we can find.
Heading down to NoHa for tonight’s show, stoked. I’m hoping for ‘84-‘85.
Anyone else going tonight?
They were excellent last night. Elective set, featuring some cool stuff. Help>Slip>Corrina and the Corrina was sick! That was before drums. They came out of space with another Slipknot into Franklin’s. Highlights included a scorching Minglewood, killer Hey Pocky Way, and the highlight of the night for me was an outstanding version of, I’ll take a melody. They nailed it. First night of tour, band looked good, healthy and happy. Rob was wearing a Bromley Vermont stealie, t-shirt. Lisa’s hair is down to her ass. And Jeff was not nearly as fat as he was when I caught them last. I’m gonna see them again in Concord NH in a couple of weeks. I really like DSO.
Hope you didn't wear them out Buttah... headed to Portland for tonight. FKNA
Worth the drive down I-95. Highlight for me was second set opener Terrapin>Low Spark of High Heeled Boys>St. Stephen. Band had lots of energy and was having fun, as were we all. Really good Eyes jam as well. My first DSO show and I’d go again before going back to see Dead and Co. More better liveliness
Went to the show last night in Concord NH. Smoking hot! Spring ‘78, which I actually prefer to spring ‘77. Opened with Passenger. First set closed with a ripping Jack Straw>Deal. Second set was the business, opened with Miracle, wicked Playing in the Band. Shakedown after drums/space. The Sugar Mag to close the set was insane. The crowd was really good last night. Loud and into it. Love DSO!
Golden Gate Wingmen Stream tonight. Just caught a wicked help slip.

I saw The Englishtown Project last night. That's Tom Circosta's new gig, he was the other frontman next to Jeff in the Volunteers and Zen Tricksters. They fkn killed it! In a similar kind of way that DSO brings a different take on the tunes these guys do too and if you want the pace to be quicker than Dead and Co these guys really bring that to the show.
This Sunday at The Brooklyn Bowl is another Zen Tricksters show for $15.
Anyone wanna meet me there? The wife is only marginally interested...
This is fresh

Listening to that one TC. Good shit! Thx.
Oregon run this week with a finish at the Warfield. Stoked for the Ashland show 2/11!!
TargheeFest just announced DSO for the opening Friday night. Stoked, that will be fun! Two years ago JRAD had that spot, and I thought it was the best of the festival...but I am biased. Can’t wait to see who else is in the lineup.
Skip dropped bombs with Phil's wall of sound Mission Control last weekend.
FKN luv DSO

Marathon day... I haz been training.
Forgot all 'bout that simple twist of fate...

Been listening/ watching all day... that last show with the horn was nice. I loved shows with Branford in the 90's... added another layer and spark and push to the band which was nice (and sometimes needed).
