off of Oteil's new Garcia/Hunter tribute project "Lovely View of Heaven"

absolutely beautiful album, the Mission in the Rain cover is also incredible.

 

the 2/28/80 Kean College version is pretty much my favorite song of all time, but I was wondering if anyone has one they think tops it?

 

Sam Grisman Project might just be my favorite Dead related band out right now, just discovered them last week!

not a mobile app but Spicetify for desktop might have an extension that does what you're looking for.

I just did a full wipe of my system to try out Fedora KDE, XFCE & Budgie spins (I finally got fed up with Gnome not being what I wanted anymore after like 15 years of using it as my preferred DE) and didn't really have the same experience at all - even Fedora XFCE which you say was completely broken was working fine for me. I haven't run anything other than Fedora in a long time though so I can't really speak to the out of the box experience on other distros.

Fedora for over a decade now. I started with Ubuntu in 2007 used it until I installed Fedora 17 in 2012. haven't felt the need to switch.

yeah I was, I saw the whole two nights in Philly 2021 and 22, my first Ween shows since 2007

yeah I know, it's still missing kinda basic stuff like moderator tools (or if they're there I can't find them, which is another problem) and I find the overall UI less intuitive than the web app. I know it's in the early stages and I'm not trying to shit on the app or devs in any way. just doesn't seem like the best way to use the platform at the moment.

had no idea about this, I've been using it in the browser because Jerboa is clunky and still lacking a bunch of features, thanks for the tip

I actually use archive.org for a lot of live concert recordings. bands like the Grateful Dead and Phish have been allowing/sort of encouraging fans to record and freely share their concerts for a long time and it’s all just out there to listen to and download as much as you want. there’s also the official streaming services like nugs.net and LivePhish for higher quality professionally recorded concerts, the subscription is kind of pricey but I think the artists get a better cut than on regular streaming services.

other than that I do use Spotify a bit and try to buy stuff on Bandcamp to support the artists when I can.

I've seen them play Tender Situation live so many times but this one felt different. I love how pretty and uh, well, tender this song has become compared to the original Pure Guava version. Really hope they do another two nights in Philly this December like they have the past two years.

the app seems to be lacking quite a few features currently, I'm having a better experience using Lemmy in a web browser

definitely, the doom n gloom attitude on my city's subreddit really bugs me actually. hoping when a Lemmy community for it pops up we can avoid that. but regardless it's a great way to find out about local events or cool restaurants to try or just fun stuff that's a little more off the beaten path

I created a Grateful Dead community on lemmy.world, we've already got a few people participating and I'd love to see it grow
