Talk about the recent Tours

I just got both SF shows and 1 night in LA...…got lucky on good seats good prices

resales are already double or more what I paid for...…..within 30 minutes of when I got mine...…..some of my friends got shut out in 20 minutes

I hate to say it but I would venture a guess that Billy's health had something to do with it being the Final Countdown.....maybe I'm wrong

Bobby will probably keep going with Wolf Bros and the Wolfpack...….I'm catching them at the Warfield in San Francisco for 3 nights this weekend

I wonder what all the Dead and Co haters will have to talk about now

What a joke. I finally got through for SPAC and the cheapest of the few seats left were over $200- some WELL over.

"Thank you- and stay in touch..." :lol:

Here’s my oldest that I saved. One of several times that year that I got to hear The Wall. The Riders cancelled. Instead, we were treated to one of the handful of performances by the Great American String Band which included Jerry on banjo, David Grisman, Richard Greene, and Taj Mahal on bass.

Bill, tgo

Remember how hot it was! I was glad when they spritzed the audience down with hoses.

Bill, tgo

Inflation calculator says $7.50 in 1978 dollars would equal $34.28 in 2022 dollars. I didn't see any "Final Tour" tickets in that range. :roll:

Someone's getting rich and it ain't me.

There wasn't much they could do to get me interested in this tour, but I think they just found a way. If I can get tickets to a rumored show in Barton Hall on May 8th I will be there. My daughter is a student at Cornell and it would be a cool experience to share a "last show" with her.

Having attended the May 8 '77 show, I'd love to join you. But that day I'll be in Tel Aviv.

The Cornell 23 prices are posted. A very small number of seats at $300, most are $750-1500 for tickets alone, but a lot of the tickets are reserved for travel packages and other VIP offers that kick the prices up another notch or two.

If they would guarantee that all songs would be played at full tempo maybe, but $3k for two tickets to see them perform in slow motion is a bit much.
