Summary

Hey Now! This week we will explore the first set from a great show that took place during a historic run at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester NY back on February 20, 1971. This was during the famous 'ESP' experiments, and it was also the second show without Mickey Hart who had left the band after the first show of this run.

This show contains a number of 'new' tunes (at the time) and you'll see that some have yet to be fully developed (Playin' in the Band for example). However the band is tight, Pigpen is on and it is really a fine set. I especially love the ending of this set with the Cryptical>Drums>Other One>Wharf Rat

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Dead Pog for the week of February the 11th, 2022. This is a professor
0:04.9	on so glad to get picked us up this week. This week for your pre-Valentines Day enjoyment,
0:10.5	I'm going to bring you a classic show from 1971. This comes from the famous run at Port Chester,
0:16.8	New York at Capitol Theater. This one comes to us from February 20th, 1971. It was a Saturday night.
0:23.3	A really fine first set and an even better second set, of course. This was part of the ESP
0:29.1	experiment show. It was the second show without Mickey in the band, so you may miss a few of his
0:34.5	frills, but I don't think I think Billy does a great job of filling it in. This show features
0:41.0	every new song from this from the Port Chester run and an electric ripple in Fissette 2. So you're
0:48.4	going to enjoy that. It starts out with Casey Johns, me and my uncle. A beautiful hard to handle.
0:53.2	Bertha's in there playing in the band and a short version of playing in the band. Remember
0:58.2	they're still experimenting at this time in 1971. Birdsong follows in a great big boss man,
1:05.4	cryptical involvement leads into drums into a nice long other one. First set, Warfaret follows.
1:11.6	Jerry misses a couple lyrics in, but nevertheless, they close set one with a nice sugar magnolia.
1:18.6	So I hope you enjoy this one. It's some really classic dead and a fine recording.
1:22.8	I hope and from a great run. You know, a historic run, the dead performed back in 1971. So
1:30.3	hope you enjoy it. Thanks again for picking us up this weekend for your support of the dead pod.
1:34.4	I couldn't do it without you. I hope you're well, stay warm and healthy. So see you back here next
1:39.6	week. This is a professor you're listening to, the dead pod.
2:52.8	I hope you're well, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm,
3:16.1	stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm.
3:22.1	I certainly hope that none of you are as quiet as hungover as certain select members of Army and Army.
3:52.1	I hope you're well, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm, stay warm
