Grateful Dead - Sugar Magnolia / Scarlet Begonias / Fire On The Mountain (Winterland 12/31/78)

[@dnice9168]

Such a wonderful memory. Had to get tickets with a lottery. Slept on the sidewalk for two days waiting for the show(I'm in the movie). The show itself. And breakfast afterwards. I'm 70 now, wish I was there again.

[@christoferseakey555]

You just where. there again a moment does not break if it is not well recorded and awknowledged recollection is intact

[@RayBecker]

Life was so much simpler in 1970's. We are dinosaurs now but we witnessed the greatest period of time for music; 1968 to 1978. We had different values then. We could just sit outside in the dirt and dig a hole with a stick. We threw a tennis ball at the wires and each wire was a different base in baseball. We had to use our imagination. I can remember having my boom box and waiting until the songs came on the radio and then try to hit the record button just at the right moment. I would get lost in the music. I would visualize the guitar or the bass and how they mixed the overall sound. Of course, years later I would become a musician. The days of wonder and imagination are long behind us. Oh I wish young people today had just a taste of how we lived back then. Thank you for your comment. Peace.

So many people were desperate to get tickets. They used to wave signs saying “ I need a miracle “! I was philosophical about it. Tickets came to me when I needed them. I saw them with Little Feat at a outdoor concert at a racetrack here in Maine. The show was supposed to be sold out but by chance I just asked if they had any extra and they had 10. I had enough for one ticket and I hitchhiked there. I was a memorable show. The summer nights are awesome. The music was like food for our soul for sure.

[@robertshorthill4153]

Went to a 3 1/2 hour Dead concert in June of '69. Just got back to the states from the war. What a way to end a F-ed up war. The Dead took me as high as I could have gotten without any dope, but the air was full of cannabis smoke, so I didn't feel left out. It was totally awesome, as one can imagine. The first of several Dead concerts over the next few years. I encouraged several college friends and acquaintances to burn their draft cards and resist the draft in '70, '71 and '72. Best thing I can say took place during my college days. That and the Dead shows.

67 and liked them in high school when I had Workingmans Dead and American Beauty (still among the all time great albums from an era where somebody was turning out a great album every month). I remember joking about could we just go to the concert without joining the cult. Then I saw my first show - Folsom Field in September 72 - and I got it. Never "followed the band" but I saw them at least two dozen times from Red Rocks to Winterland. Didn't see this but in early 80s used to go to their New Years shows in Oakland. Great times. Never saw anyone unhappy at a Dead show, did you?

I’ve seen/saw them at least 30 times. Just saw Dead & Company here in Atlanta. The music will never stop because we are the music. They played it, we became it, and together we will always be it. 🙏✌🏼

[@timothysmith1458]

Are you related to Tyler!? He is one Bad Ass Musician!!! I didn't hear enough of him to know if he covers any Dead but I do believe he's worthy! They are like Jahovas Favorite Choir & you write like a genuine Pen Pushing Pimp Daddy. So welll put Carl!

Now thats what i call a wonderful way to kick off a new year there was nothing like a dead show

[@shaunericsachs4704]

I was at the Chase Center for Dead and Company on New Year's Eve 2020...it was a awesome show..3 sets...5+ hours...Bill Walton dressed up as Father Time and Wavy Gravy was Baby 2020 in nothing but a tye-dye diaper...

As someone who boarded the bus in the early 70's, why would anyone dislike (thumbs down) this video. One of the most epic concerts in the Grateful Dead library.

[@pch2004sf]

It was a great time.

Wish my older sisters would have taken me to a Dead show back in the 1970s when I was a kid. (I'm 56 now)

[@briansobel7915]

Can’t say that I remember all Dead shows back in the day, but at 75, there are still my favorite Band! As a matter of fact, I am listening to them right now in my back yard! I hope my neighbors appreciate great music!!!

The Grateful Dead are American folk hero’s to me . I was very lucky to see them up close and personal in some very small venues

[@moisheplatinumberg6016]

Maybe my favourite Scarlet Begonias. The Dead were hitting on all cylinders in 77-78. Jerry at the top of his game. Donna Jean sounded great and looked incredible. Everything about this set was top notch.

[@JackStrawFromW1ch1ta]

45 here, been grateful since 16. My sister had come home from college and accidentally left a GD cassette in the boom box. I listened more and more each day before and after school and was hooked in no time. Soon after I bought the Without A Net, cassette. Love too many to name but St Stephen was the first one and it changed my life! Fare thee well!

[@patriciamays8244]

Your sister left the cassette by accident. My brother took my Blues for Allah out of the car on the beach. Never saw it again.

[@cjfreeman8885]

When I was a kid in the 90's all my friends were DeadHeads, I was more into hard rock at the time but I always loved Fire on the Mountain and a couple others. Now that I'm older, hearing the Dead instantly brings me back to those days and nights sitting around a fire with my head in the clouds, not a care in the world. Glad I got to hear Jerry playing live once, I'll never forget that day. I still love to rock out but I guess I'm a DeadHead now too :)

[@chimpthedestroyer8277]

Haha I’m 17 now. All my friends are dead heads and I’m into Jimi Hendrix and more classic rock, but my friends got me into it, I’m likin it. Fire on the mountain was the first song I actually like. Same thing decades apart

[@jeanhartely]

My husband was a pure Deadhead. Followed them all over the east coast. I loved the Dead, but had never seen them. I met him at the local bar (which had a good jukebox). "Who's playing the Dead!" he demanded. I said, "I am." Well, that was it. We were together 15 years and it was a wonderful 15 years. We spent our first date listening to Scarlet/fire.

[@AZ19968]
