    pig on nixon: “that ol’ rat up in the white house/he knows he’s gonna die someday.” lays out his political philosophy: “don’t go pushing/but don’t get pushed.” lesh leads not-quite-segue into semi-frayed UNCLE JOHN’S BAND closer. [6/6]

    garcia adds rare & typically awesome harmony to the “shine on me” part. NOT FADE AWAY slides into bliss bubble before segue. messiness in a few transitions but great overloaded lesh/garcia jams in GOOD LOVIN’ & then pig gets political, kinda. “just my opinion,” he repeats. [5/6]

    “we’re running short on time & so we’re going to wrap it up with this number,” weir says before 54-minute TURN ON YOUR LOVELIGHT > NOT FADE AWAY > GOIN’ DOWN THE ROAD FEELING BAD > LOVELIGHT > DRUMZ > GOOD LOVIN’, the last 2-drummer pigpen blow-out. [4/6]

    SUGAR MAGNOLIA solo getting bigger & bigger. “keep it down,” weir notes to his bandmates off-mic before SUNSHINE DAYDREAM, which they try to somewhat awkwardly. a development i missed on 12/28, though: garcia & lesh no longer sing the "doot doot-doot" vocal parts. [3/6]

    1/24/71 seattle: nice to have pigpen’s B3 in the mix during big openin’ TRUCKIN’. crowd hassles band during long tuning break: “get this fucking crap together.” weir: “in a minute!” garcia: “get it together yourself.” one long set, despite tape labeling. [2/6]

    50 years ago tonight, the grateful dead in seattle with ian & sylvia & the new riders of the purple sage. nice soundboard, with the big jam only coming into circulation in 2013. [1/6]

    An unusually wide-ranging but succinct new interview of me by , focusing on music, the time I spoke with Jerry Garcia at length, one reason I enjoy hanging out with people, and the huge influence on my writing that no one ever notices.

    Filmmaker Al Jarnow created time-lapse, stop-motion and animation short films in the 1970s. Filmed from above in 1978, the stop-motion short Facial Recognition demonstrates image resolution as kids build images of a familiar face with more and more dots
