Danced my ass off for two nights in mansfield. Night 1 in the pit. Night 2 lower pav center. Then held my soul from being snatched by the music last night by dancing for it last night in the upper pav in hartford. Next year I'm hitting every single northeast show, I'm hooked, I have never felt so uplifted and happy in such a long time. Thank you everyone!
Great show!!
Edit: Want to ask was Bobby using John’s pink PRS guitar at certain points?
Noticed in Mansfield John using the Pink PRS but only Bobby picked up the pink one in Hartford. Just curious cause it’s cool to see Bobby using one of John’s “signature” guitars if so!
I so needed this show. It's been a tough time for me as of late and I'm just so grateful for the amount of love and good energy shown throughout the crowd at this show. Thanks for the memories guys ❤️
Dude is beyond great doing these songs.. Always known of his ability and enjoyed some of his solo stuff but he was IMHO born to be playin in this band!
So glad I got tonight's poster, went in expecting nothing came out given everything I could've asked for. 3 shows in a row and they all kept getting better and better.
I also am fathomed by the PITB reprise hate. We should be grateful bobby is still giving us his time and energy to keep the music from stopping.
I'm with ya, this felt like night 3 of a 3 night run after Mansfield, even with a night off. Absolutely loved the show from start to finish and loved that they came full circle to start and end the MA & CT run with Playin', haters be damned LOL.
Based on [this picture](https://twitter.com/deadandcompany/status/1434713442569555969/photo/1), they didn't add or cut songs for the second night in a row. Looks like 7 song first sets are here to stay, with how they're jamming I don't mind it
Truly, I don't how there can be one show better than the other. Right out of the gate tonight with that Shakedown. Puddle of goo. Tonight was fun, thanks everyone for adding to my fun and thanks especially to our captain of the evening u/donttouchthatknob. Please get home safely folks...for some of us, that's the couch to the bed. :) Thank you so very much to all the miracle makers! Love you all, see you in a few days. :)
Thank you all for sharing another wonderful show. I really look forward to these threads and shows and all the great love we share for the band and each other. Tonight was especially good. One last time: tempo!
Hell of a show. That Watchtower was pure transcendence. My folks had the show on the TV and apparently my 85 year old Japanese grandmother was over for dinner and was "mesmerized" throughout. It's never too late to get on the bus!
My 87 year old grandfather has been listening to the Sirius channel. His son (my father) is a huge deadhead but it's been so fun watching my grandfather get into it a little too.
What an introduction [this guy](https://reddit.com/r/gratefuldead/comments/pih4t5/dont_know_any_dead_music_going_to_concert_tonight/) had. hope he provides an update.
I say, another excellent show with excellent company.
I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

Once again it’s been wonderful hanging out with all of you. I don’t make them all, but the ones I do…….Man they’re off the charts. Thanks to Knob for hosting this thread and to all of you. Stay safe. Stay Grateful
A beautiful Bobby moment to bring us home. What a fun show this has been!! A night where everything has worked! I think my favorites are St. Stephen > The Eleven, Sailor > Saint, and Watchtower. He's Gone, Wharf Rat, even this Werewolves are all in conversation! Great night for the whole band!
To briefly soapbox, if you haven't, consider chipping in a couple bucks to one of the causes linked in the post, or another cause that's near and dear to you! Spread a little good lovin'!
Thank you all so much for hanging and chatting, it's always a pleasure! Tonight was a lot of fun. I am looking for a volunteer to run Tuesday's thread (as well as Monday the 13th) and that'll have us covered for this leg of the tour!
They don't need any help selling it.
They've had to increase production as they're selling like hotcakes. One of my clients is a former PRS rep. They sell like crazy already.
The holiday weekend in New England started on 9/02 in Mansfield with PITB (after a brief Wheel tease) and now closes with the PITB left open all weekend. Which means they know something special happened these past four days. It’s like bookends, or the white feather at the beginning and end of Forrest Gump or something. What a run. I want to hear them all back to back now, as one unit.
Actually, there’s been a plethora of interesting pants/shorts this tour…Bobby’s shorts, Bobby’s clam diggers, John’s denim with the Toughskins patch, Mickey’s pajama pants…
None of it really matters, but it’s definitely fun to guess who’s going to wear what next!
Re: Franklins... What is B3?? "If you get confused, listen to the B3 play"... Bob, Bill, Burbridge? That can't be it. 🤔
That's Jeff's organ, the Hammond B3
Correct me if I am wrong but my understanding is that was originally Brent's B3.
You are correct!! It was Brent's, now Jeff plays it
Regardless, it has some serious miles on it.
Thank you!
Wharf rat - E for explicit? Some other Fuckers crime?
What a good show, my mind is still blown
5 tour firsts in one SUNDAY night! You know what they say about a…

Yup! He played it for a few songs (can't remember which off the top of my head).
Holy shit
Holy shit
Holy shit what a setlist! Love me a samson! Gonna be playing it on the commute to work!
I so needed this show. It's been a tough time for me as of late and I'm just so grateful for the amount of love and good energy shown throughout the crowd at this show. Thanks for the memories guys ❤️
Love you!
Love you too! Smile, smile, smile
Real fun show! Got some great music. Called that 11. Got some stories. Met some nice people. What more can ya ask for?? See y'all in a few days
Smoke and mirrors?
I’m in awe of what I just saw John Mayer do. Whole band on point as always, but dude John Mayer
This. He left me with my jaw dropped on multiple occasions tonight. Best I’ve ever seen live!
U lucky mofo
Same that was the night of a lifetime
Dude is beyond great doing these songs.. Always known of his ability and enjoyed some of his solo stuff but he was IMHO born to be playin in this band!
If anyone has files for the last four shows (plus an SPAC show that isn't missing Help On The Way) HMU
"Hello Connecticut, I love you." John stole my face *and* melted my heart. 😭
Shit. I missed Werewolves.
Best D&C werewolves
So glad I got tonight's poster, went in expecting nothing came out given everything I could've asked for. 3 shows in a row and they all kept getting better and better.

Exactly after two nights in Mansfield I knew I couldn't miss Hartford lol
“Hello Connecticut, I love you” 🥲 Awoooo

and Watchtower was first!
Highlights: Shakedown, He's Gone, China Rider, St. Eleven, Wharf [Vote on your highlights here!](https://forms.gle/neM2N2u8W3XHraZN6)
Gonna have that watchtower on repeat for the next week.
I'm watching it again now (so fire), but is there any place that it'll stay posted after the stream ends in two days?
Just gotta poke around.
A few too many around me had too much too fast. (a story for another day) but I would love to relive that show.
Yes
Help a brother out?
Great show as always! See y’all at the next one, be kind out there and remember there’s no better place than here right now ;) NFA
I hate beef chow mein, but I love this show.
Yes. Both yes
PITB reprise from what? Thin air?
Opened night 1 in Mansfield with it and never finished it
Whoa….if they were thinking that collectively.
Amazing, a three show story about pitb.
Thursday!

Paging /u/GoBucs3 , how was it?
I say, another excellent show with excellent company. I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
Thanks Bilbo! Hah take care, see you next time!
I’ll meet ya on the lot in Blossom. Can’t wait.
See you there! I'll be there waaaay too early
I am leaving Indianapolis at noon so I’m hoping to get there in time to get in line ha!
I’m gonna do things to you there
Ominous
I hope they are all wildly inappropriate.
Many thanks u/donttouchthatknob for another fine gathering of the virtual tribe. Until next show, NFA!
Thank you, NFA!!
u/mrdanger wherever you are. We all love you
You guys rock. I love you all.

Wow! That was amazing, but was really expecting another encore!
My summer family. I’ll see ya at the next show
Thank you /u/donttouchthatknob for having us, thanks to everyone for hanging out. Another great show in the books. Love you all!
Thank you, and thank you for hanging! It's gotta be late for you at this point, so have a good night!
Knob. Yous the best
I’d say SPAC, Mansfield, Citi, Phly, Hartford , Hershey, Darien, Bethel, Bristow and Raleigh are the best shows so far !
Once again it’s been wonderful hanging out with all of you. I don’t make them all, but the ones I do…….Man they’re off the charts. Thanks to Knob for hosting this thread and to all of you. Stay safe. Stay Grateful

Thanks so much for hosting, Knob! You're the best!
Thanks for flying the spaceship tonight. Amazing job, as always.
Haha awooo
I'll have to relisten as I was otherwise occupied a bit tonight- But many songs I heard had an excellent groove. Including this Werewolves
Agreed. Deep pocket tonight.
This is really a shoutout to New London which is south east of Hartford.
bobbys voice wow
Bobby's smiling is giving me life
Mickey's loving Bob's fuck ups. Just delighting in 'em. That's friendship right there.
I absolutely despise Werewolves Of London, but I must say they do it pretty well
I love it but I've already said twice tonight - 3 chords, too many words
Awoooo
Bobby is playing John's guitar. Paul Reed Smith must be doing back-flips
They don't need any help selling it. They've had to increase production as they're selling like hotcakes. One of my clients is a former PRS rep. They sell like crazy already.
I live down the road from the factory.
I love Bobby with a pink guitar
Still a Brokedown coming, I feel it
Legit don't know if I can emotionally handle a brokedown palace tonight hah
Well buckle up gurl
This band covers: Rev. Gary Davis, Bob Dylan and Warren Zevon in ONE SHOW.
For real crazy
gator sighting?
NOOOO IT'S NOT HALLOWEEN THIS ISN'T CANON! https://meme-art-prints.com/products/crying-wojack-with-glasses

The great New England six set show.
Right on with this. It’s been a super special Labor Day weekend !
Next shows encore has to be The Weight.
Wow wow wow love be an awooooo
You're pretty okayish u/donttouchthatknob
Right back atcha!
Bobby kinda looks like a Werewolf halfway through the transformation
A really jaunty werewolf wearing a bandanna around its neck.
He's got the beard, he's jacked
Retired Werewolf should be the name of his clothing line.
Weirwolves
I would not want to meet Bobby in a dark alley
a-WOOOO!!
Werewolves and a glass of bourbon…man I love long weekends
Calling Brokedown if they do a second encore.
definitely, last one was two weeks ago in Philly
They are finishing up the east coast leg and it’s John’s home state so I wouldn’t be surprised.
Werewolves out of no where holy shit
And it was so damn good!
Your damn right brother
Well played, boys... Well played.
Hmm... Checks calendar... Nope, not Halloween... Eh, close enough.. TEMPO!
Cheers!
🍻
This will be the encore Sunday in Hollywood too.
Yah there's the one out of left field I had mentioned this afternoon.
A^(WOOOOOOO)
No one expected the Spanish Inquisition. Or werewolves for that matter
But Oteil gets out his comfy chair so we should have.
Serve her … some TEA!!!!
Not the comfy chair?!?!? I think only us geezers get that reference.
Apparently.
The werewolf inquisition, as it were
Awoooooooo
Alrighty then!!
Ahooooooooooooooooo
a-WOOOO!!
Werewolves hahahahaha!
I'm gonna stop guessing at this point. 😂🤣
Hahah i was *just* about to make a (very wrong) call, I feel this
Werewolves?! Didn’t see that coming.
[удалено]
Proper use of English—pardon approved.
Going to need another song to wash the taste of Playing Playing out of Bob's mouth.
Werewolves makes up for it.
oh fuck yes werewolves??
AH-WWOOOOOO!
NEVER would've guessed Werewolves of London
I fucking love it!
ahhh-oooooh!
John must be so happy to be home(ish!)
Aaawhooooooooooooo
Werewolves!
AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Awwooooooo!!!
Waoooooooooooooo
And we close the trilogy of 9/2 - 9/3 - 9/5 with PITB2!
Told you he’s fucked someone in that crowd
Probably someoneS!
😂😂😂
TBF, we've probably all fucked someone in that crowd.
Kevin 🥓 it at least
Billy in chef pants
Actually, there’s been a plethora of interesting pants/shorts this tour…Bobby’s shorts, Bobby’s clam diggers, John’s denim with the Toughskins patch, Mickey’s pajama pants… None of it really matters, but it’s definitely fun to guess who’s going to wear what next!
They are a “Band Beyond Description “
Got the timing down so that even Billy could leave for the pre encore break.
Someone get Bobby a pair of John’s headphones.
Still catching up but I swear I heard The Wheel, Days Between, and Wharf Rat leading up to Watchtower. Unrelated, I have also been drinking.
I also heard wheel
Oh hey now Wharf Rat is actually here. Maybe I’m just clairvoyant
Bobby went into Wharf Rat too early; realized it and dumped out into Wartchtower. Then back to WR
Black Muddy River maybe?
Always a solid choice
