Rap ain't music.

I grew up on the SF Peninsula, which was fortunately close to Winterland.
I wasted a few good years in there, but, from '72-86 , saw them every time they did some shows; at least once, often twice, sometimes 3 times in the stand. Almost all the songs were different, and the ones which weren't were different, cuz that's what real musicians can do. Moved up north in '86, so I didn't see them very often after that; maybe twice a year, if that.
I loaned Chuck two concert DVDs; maybe he can burn you copies.

I was fortunate in that most of the acid rock groups were local, and played at home a lot. Missed Janice, but I did see Big Bro a few years ago. Never caught Quicksilver , either, but I graduated from kazoo to harmonica on "Who Do You Love?" Cipollina used to sit in with the Dead, sometimes. As did Carlos, Crosby and Nash. Who, Moody Blues, NRPS, Carlos...
