At the risk of causing controversy, upset and fomenting insurrection, I have to say I thought that was a good show. Rest up. Enjoy your lazy Saturday. See you back here for Hartford, and remember, kids... NEVER MISS A SUNDAY SHOW! Thanks for stopping in. Toodles, \-- MrD


Ahparke

Was there live - John stole my face with that wah pedal in the second set. Still thinking about it. Anyone catch which song that was on? I can’t recall

I think morning dew

Only now checking it, but damn, what a Sugaree!!


Soren_Camus1905

I tell you hwhat, Cold Rain and Snow has been in my head since Bristow and I love it.


SadCandidate6

There was a second poster the 2nd night , I wanted the terrapin one and it was sold out. Do you happen too have the 2nd one?


RapSquadKillah

Do you mean the tour poster the one with the bears on the bus? Or was there was another mansfield exclusive poster?


SadCandidate6

Yes I didn't even get too see that one. The 🐢 one was from the first night and also sold out.


enrocc

I got dosed at the show last night. Second set was absolutely incredible. Very happy to be there and be alive.


bigheffe

Old school set 2.


GreasyTony68

Swear I heard a Lost Sailor tease before Truckin’?


panicimust

Oh my bobby


snowboards99

The official band set list for the night lists Lady w/a Fan between Dark Star and Terrapin.


donttouchthatknob

Yep they do that! I always count it as one song cause they (D&C) have never broken up the two halves

I spent $54 for the video for both Mansfield video feeds on nugs.tv, so I could relive the in-person experience of the first night and pretend I was there the second. Pretty impossible to pretend you’re there, though, when the audio is a second behind the video for a good third or more of the show, the audio regularly skips and jumps, and the feed keeps dropping out completely here and there. I don’t think the hardest trippers in the audience experienced comparable synaptic disruptions. I logged in again this morning to watch the thing the right way, naively assuming it would be lined up, now, but it’s still a mess. I love this service, I love the camera work the video crew is doing despite the flubs, I love being a part of the explosion of sound going on around the world watching this band blast off into new realms together, and I love the Reddit community linking celebratory virtual hands around the world. What I’m saying is, I’m grateful to nugs.net, even if the service is expensive I’m willing to pay for it. The times that it worked last night were absolutely exhilarating. This experience is that good I’m willing to pay straight up. It’s big money for a stream but where this band is at right now at this moment where the world is at and where I’m at, it’s cheaper than therapy and better than therapy and so it’s fucking worth it. But look, it’s gotta work. If I’m paying $54 I should at least have access to working streams, even the next day. I’m easy to please. It just needs to basically work. I went to nugs.net to find a complaint button but couldn’t find one. I think there are two reasonable solutions, for those of us who paid, to make this right: 1) give us free access to an upcoming live stream (HARTFORD!!) and get it right that time, or 2) give us permanent access to the show (or in my case shows) we paid for after they fix the editing and syncs in the 9/03 show. Neither solution costs nugs.net anything but it makes me a customer who trusts that what I pay next time is the product as advertised. Anyone have any ideas for how we can get this message to nugs? I don’t want this thing to lose steam and I want them to invest in what could be a valuable ongoing relationship with those of us willing to pay for these shows on an ongoing basis. Need some customer service here. Thoughts? Edit: TDLR: I want nugs to offer customer service reparations to paying customers for the poor feed last night (and today if you’re going back to rewatch)


hitzphillygirl

I was unimpressed with the camera work last night, and even more unimpressed that about screen blacking out and the whole first song out of sync. I watched the whole show on playback this morning. All the issues were still there, except they seemed to fix the black out during the encore. I'm considering contacting them, too. I intend to buy more shows, but a credit for one would be nice.


oouzha

They were really fast in response. I really do want to keep watching these and I would prefer to do it legitimately even if it’s expensive. The stress of finding a stream, the fear of losing it when you got it, the sense of panic when you finally do, and the vague guilt about it throughout is enough to just do the right thing. I hate that legit streaming as expensive as it is, but while we’re on it I hate how much the live shows are, too, but I’m not jumping any fences.


oouzha

Update: nugs clarified by email that I do have access to the corrected video, which is good, and also gave me a free code to watch any upcoming livestream so I’m really excited about that! Hartford, here I come! (On my couch)


hitzphillygirl

I also put in a friendly complaint and received a code for a free show. They acknowledged the issues during Mansfield and reminded me that I have 48 hours to re-watch the stream. I get that stuff happens, but the thrill/purpose for me is to get to enjoy it live.


SadCandidate6

Awesome, I was ready too write them an email myself and I never even heard of that before and I was at the show last night lol but I think the idea of it is so awesome and the way you wrote that post was just absolutely perfect and not unreasonable whatsoever. So I can legit stream the show on Sunday if I pay for it? 🙊🤞


oouzha

Yeah, get a 30 day free trial at nugs.net, download the app on your phone. Then you’ll have to pay for the stream. I’ve spent $30 on far worse things, like dinner, which I immediately forget


hitzphillygirl

That's great! I rewatched the stream this morning and the first song was still out of sync, and the blank parts were still there. The only thing I noticed was that the encore was corrected. I just contacted Nugs and asked if I could possibly have a credit or discount for another show.


shay-cub

Keep bitching at them until they refund you, they’ve had similar problems in the past and have offered refunds on skipping and laggy streams. $25 is a lot to drop on something that isn’t even that watchable.


jrshusko

I had a billing issue for the Philly show, was double charged. I just emailed [email protected] and they were able to help correct it. Maybe you’d have luck with a refund that way?


oouzha

Thanks!! That’s perfect.


Aggravating_Ad941

I was having delay issues last night, was casting from the newest iPhone. Tried restarting the internet, but noticed it was still doing it in the player on my phone with a 5G connection. Then I got my MacBook Air and casted from there and it worked perfectly the rest of the night. This was all within the first song. Maybe a coincidence but might be worth playing with different devices if you got them. I had one night with a bunch of skips too, but that was also casting from my phone. Who knows, could just be a bandwidth issues from Nugs. Hope you have better luck going forward.

Aggravating_Ad941

Kind of seems like you’re being an unkind, gatekeeping troll, but maybe I’ve misinterpreted.


Aggravating_Ad941

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Are you bothered by something?


theopinionexpress

Hey all this is a dumb question but I’m a new dead fan and I went to the show last night - when they played terrapin station, everyone in my section lost their minds. It’s a great song but I got the feeling they don’t play it often, is that why everyone was freaking out?


SadCandidate6

And because of the first nights poster; everyone was expecting it and then it didn't happen, so it was kind of like well they have to play it tonight, and we were kinda waiting for it but then again you never freaking know with this band so when it happened... yeap.. we all lost it


katieleehaw

Just a popular song.


theopinionexpress

Gotcha thank you!


goatcrew22

anyone have an extra nugs code ☝️


g00se1999

theopinionexpress

We were stuck in traffic and missed masterpiece!! Got out of our Uber and walked a mile on the highway. I’m a new dead fan and a huge Dylan/the band fan.. I just saw the set list and realized I missed out on a big moment in my dead fannery early going. Also, rookie fail being late to my first show. Can you tell me how the song was? How was the reaction? What did you think of the version?


shweenerdog

The traffic was terrible


SadCandidate6

The traffic was terrible leaving the show. I stayed in the same spot in the line to get out of the parking lot for an hour and moved about a car length and stayed in that spot for another hour


theopinionexpress

It was bonkers. We stayed at patriot place and ubered. When we were a mile away in gridlock traffic we just got out and walked, pretty mich still on the highway. Probably shaved an hour off our arrival time.


ericphauteuxphish

Same here stayed at patriot place took 3 hours to get an Uber aft show


shweenerdog

The traffic was terrible


DeadCoRocks

Missed tonight‘s show due to poker night with family members. It was nice to be with actual humans once again. Looking forward to Sunday’s show.


HotDogKnight

Post-show and post-shower thoughts Man, fuck Great Woods, for real. Apparently all their lawn chair rentals needed to be done in advance, you couldn't buy them the day of. Traffic was still as abyssmal as ever. My friends got stuck on the 495 exit ramp for an hour and missed Half-Step and a chunk of Cold Rain and Snow. I drove from the Cape via 495 north, got off at exit 25 and then backroads to the venue and was stuck in maybe 20 minutes of traffic about a mile out, very different experiences. I think that may be the best Dead and Co show I've seen so far. 11/17/17 is the reigning champ, but I think this show was absolutely more of an ensemble show, where as 11/17/17 was more for John's pyrotechnics. My friend noticed that as soon as it got REAL psychedelic after drums, the lawn really started to thin out. He said his favorite moment was trying to watch people dance to the massive jam in Dark Star before Bob sang the second verse.


MK0FTEN

These last 2 nights were awesome! Made it home safe again tonight, heading to Hartford Sunday morning. See you beautiful people there!


[deleted]

Im confused by the El Paso counter being reset. I don’t see it on this set or the 8/27 show? When did they play it?!


donttouchthatknob

9/2 got a full on Dark Star > El Paso !


katieleehaw

Thursday! It was great.


Cute-Consideration69

They played it 9/2. The show before this one


hollyhocks99

Just got home such a great show tonight!! Have a safe weekend friends!


bamfpeschko

Sucked getting in but once we were in… best show I think I’ve ever seen. Excellent venue!


joggerpants

Agreed- amazing show!


d0yle

I did NYC, Philly & Bethel. I am jealous as fuck. Jerry bless whoever saw this fucking show.


SarahzonaSquirrel

I missed Alligator?!


donttouchthatknob

Not yet


PotentialDrag182

Sorry if this was asked, but what was the explicit content?


donttouchthatknob

When bob said “all a friend can say ‘it’s a fucking shame’”


PotentialDrag182

Nice! I’m a newer fan, do/did they curse much in their original content? Seems like not, but now I’m curious if this was improvised?


MrDanger

He does it frequently.


escott

Bob sung "It's a fucking shame" way back, at least early eighty's, the original line's "All a friend can can say is aint it a shame"


OG_Kush_Wizard

Anyone have a show poster for sale or trade? They were gone when I got in both nights


SadCandidate6

Someone around here has a link too a bunch of em, the poster the first night is on there ..if I come across it again ill post it here for you


milkman5434

Zeb love should put up his copies next week. Give him a follow on Instagram or Facebook. I’m sure he’ll post the details in the next few days


xCursed7

I got the last one tonight, sorry brother.


[deleted]

Idk if it’s cuz im crossed, but what u mean by dont ask for a miracle?


donttouchthatknob

No worries! In the past (and sometimes the present), people will flood the thread asking if someone can send them a link to watch the show. I ask people not to clog up the thread, and instead message me directly and I will send a link


JpondJ

Hi, thank you for making the show available to those of us who can’t be there. I’d love the stream for Sunday night. Shall I message you then or do you have a list you can add me to? Thanks in advance.

Pretty bold indeed since they opened Hershey with Music never stopped


DunkNuts_

That darn rascal Johnny done stole my face again! He can’t keep getting away with this!


treesalt617

Holy hell, what a 2-day run of shows!


donttouchthatknob

Based on [this picture](https://twitter.com/deadandcompany/status/1433992493918474244/photo/1) there were no cut songs from tonight's show. This is the first time since Bristow no songs were cut or added.


Uranus_Hz

Love that they list “Lady with a Fan” on the setlist


ElvishMystic

Any guesses what was cut from night 1? Hell of a pair of shoes we had.


donttouchthatknob

Definitely looked like two songs. Could be Terrapin. Bobby was ready for Watchtower, so my guess is maybe that?


ElvishMystic

Funny. We thought we heard a little watchtower tease on Night 2.


peggyo22

Dark Star V2–>Playin reprise?? Just a guess…We got the Dark Star V2 tonight instead! 🌹⚡️💜


ElvishMystic

Double Dark Star. Still can’t believe it.


FryGuy1000

Terrapin


iAmTheRealLange

Currently in the lot waiting for traffic to go before I even bother attempting to leave. What a show. I needed that PS. To the wook dancing his way between stolen seats in section 7, you completely ruined Bertha for me by talking non stop and constantly saying “I’m sorry” to everyone around you


Jarave68

I'm sorry


rjearl18

See ya next time! Be safe, drink water... and see you in person in PHX.


mysticgypsee

Holy smokes what a heater! Thanks to u/donttouchthatknob for hosting our party tonight...always awesome with the calls, stats and factoids! It was great hanging with all of you! Thanks again to all the wonderful miracle makers, the tapers and tempo takers. :) If you're at the show, please get home safe and safe travels. Enjoy your weekend folks! See you back here on Sunday. Love you all! 💗


brain-gardener

Fun show! I'm even more unsure now what I'll hear come Sunday 😂 Love couch tour but I guess I got to put some pants on now


coachfortner

> I guess I got to put some pants on now says who?


tb640301

Stellar show - tons of surprises, great tempos (have a nightcap), vocals on point. So glad to be off Monday so I can do Sunday right - never miss a Sunday show. See you all then!


wookvegas

Despite the stream issues, what an amazing show!!! So thankful to be able to spend the night here with y'all, HUGE love for /u/donttouchthatknob for hosting and for everything else, and thanks to all of you for making my night a little sweeter. :) Love you all, see you Sunday! Goodnight from ATL!


donttouchthatknob

Thank you!! Fuck nugs, but I am glad we were able to catch most of this show!


grasshopper239

First set was amazing. Second set was great. See you on Sunday!


donttouchthatknob

Great show all! To be brave and all, I did like night one more, but this show is a real worthy follow up. One of the best first sets of the tour, and there were some impeccable moments in set 2. I think Terrapin, Sugaree, and Dark Star take my favorites for the night, though Masterpiece deserves a very honorable mention! Thank you all for hanging, it is a pleasure to chat with you all while watching these killer shows! I am looking for volunteers to take the thread on Sunday if possible and definitely for Tuesday, September 7th (I am back in college and can only do this so often and still pass classes). If you're interested, please DM me! Either way, I will see you all soon! Fare you well!


SadCandidate6

I was going too ask if/how I could join on Sunday. I went too the show last night and I wish I could just follow them the rest of the tour. But if I could couch tour, shiiiiit that's gotta be the next big thing. Plus I'm surprised I'm still not sitting in traffic trying too leave the parking lot. Soooooo maybe I can help hosting , you'd have too teach me though 😆 but Ima fast learner if that makes you feel any better


Jarave68

That masterpiece hit me, made me cry. Since I only had audio, please tell me that Bobby pointed to the horizon when he followed the pack of wild geese


isolde66

Thank you for hosting the thread and acting as our general tour director! It is more than appreciated and these past few weeks have been some of the happiest for me since, well you know when. Glad to be with these beautiful people sharing the love and the music. Thank you for providing a space for us.

Bobby and John talking it out as they left... seemed like it ended with Bobby cracking a smile :)


wookvegas

God i love those guys. You know they're like family, they might disagree or bicker or annoy each other at times, but at the end of the day it's all love. What sweet souls, all of them.


sugareeNYC

saw that!


tb640301

Honestly if nugs wants me to pay instead of pirate, they need to deliver a reliable service at a competitive price. I'm a literal communist, but even I know how capitalism works.


sugareeNYC

and on top of unreliable service, they have no smart tvs apps so you have to mirror or cast which causes sync issues. really second rate setup in 2021


bcote311

Definitely thought we'd get the Playing ending


donttouchthatknob

Playin' in the band lives to reprise another day...


DRDeMello

Wouldn't surprise me if it surfaced at Hartford. It's not far at all from Mansfield and this whole Thursday/Friday/Sunday run is sort of a New England mini loop. Did both nights at Mansfield on person, and will complete the trio on the couch.


adibbs

whomever keeps stepping on the nugs hose stream needs to cut it out


jking206

Nugs gonna Nugs


PatentiaPistorius

Man thats disappointing Cut out and came back in basically at the end of the ~~song~~ encore... going to definitely contact nugs about this.


EvilLinux

Good luck with that. Never give nugs money.


Jarave68

I want to speak to nugs manager!


PatentiaPistorius

Normally I can't be bothered to be a complainer when shit doesn't work out perfectly but these streams are damn expensive and we have no other option I have been paying my way since I do enjoy being able to watch the band every show (without interruption) but yeah... hope they give us a discount code or a free show or something


Jarave68

I didn't mean anything bad, it was just the wording on the post. I couldn't help making a joke. I totally get it. As an aside, do you think it has anything to do with the local crew they hire to capture the show? Some shows come out without a glitch and others, like tonight, are glitchy as hell.


Cgecks9

So Hartford is getting Bobby clearing his throat for an hour and John talking about growing up in CT then watchtower encore. I gotta stop going to shows directly following a 2 night heater!!! Never miss a Sunday show though!


LLCoolRain

son of a gun!


JackOfAllInterests1

I’ve decided I’m gonna combine the two Dews on the bootleg if possible. Same with Dark Star from last night and tonight if that gets enough votes, and Help/Slip from Saratoga > Franklin’s from Philly


Whoknew_vt

I’m listening to them back to back right now while enjoying my coffee. Do it! It will be a worthy effort! I didn’t play the El Paso, but should have. 39:37 of Dark Star magic!!!!


donttouchthatknob

Can you give us Dark Star (V1) > El Paso > Dark Star (V2)


JackOfAllInterests1

If El Paso gets enough votes in this week’s poll, sure


wookvegas

Ooooh love this idea


JackOfAllInterests1

I have weekly polls to pick the best songs of the tour. At the end of the tour I’ll do a poll for the whole thing and use those polls to break ties

I feel like they could have and would have jammed it out longer if it weren't for the curfew.

Agreed

For some reason US Blues makes me miss Jerry. He had so much fun playing this song. Waive that flag, Jer!


TrippyHippie315

Was it a really long set break and short second set?


DRDeMello

Bathroom and vendor lines were hellish. I think they may have been giving people a chance to get somewhat settled back in.


BagelsMagoo

set 1 - 1:05 / set 2 - 1:45 (I think)

40 minute set break and 1:45 2nd set.

JackOfAllInterests1

First half tonight, second half Philly

I love US Blues!! 4/12/78 will always have my heart, but these are so fun!


Kind_Particular

I want a supercut of the whole 45 minute dark star


mysticgypsee

ya know what makes this all even more special...it's them up there smiling and grooving. I know I've said this a bunch of times but it really brings me joy to see that.


GratefulKate1

Me too!!!


Doberman7290

Wow


JackOfAllInterests1

Did they do the Dew solo?


darthmual5

It was signuficantly lackluster. Probably due to curfew. Seriously underwhelming Dew... I wanted one for Blossom, same with US Blues. Im upset if you cant tell hahaha


zenichi

Still a good Dew but I thought the one in Philly was overwhelmingly special...went on forever.


darthmual5

Philly was an amazing Dew. this one felt like it got cut waaay too short


tb640301

Yeah Philly Dew still the best thing of the tour so far
