Summary
This week I decided to feature a nice counterpoint to last week's show so naturally I turned my attention to an earlier era of Grateful Dead... 1970 has always been a favorite year, the band had grown and matured into a tight cohesive whole and the performances still contained plenty of vigor and raw energy.. That energy is readily apparent in this week's performance. This tape, unfortunately is only part of the performance from this date, but its a very nice sounding fragment and well worth our while It starts with the very end of Sugar Mag, but then goes into one of the years better Dark Star's.. quite exploratory and spacey.. The Saint Stephen that follows is played perfectly.. a wonderful rendition I think.. a raucous Not Fade Away must have gotten everyone up after that, but what follows is the highlight of the show for me, a unique jam that flows into and out of several well known melodies, Darkness, Darkness, and China Cat among others.. the boys then revisit the Not Fade Away before Pigpen puts on one of his unique renditions of 'Lovelight'...
he must have really been enjoying himself on this night and goes out into the audience for some participation!
He does drop the F-bomb on this one and Bobby repeats it in a classic GD moment...

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dead Pod for the week of June 7th, 2013. This is a professor I'm so glad you could pick us up this week. |
| 0:07.0 | I decided this week's show would be quite a counterpoint to last week's in terms of at least one song and that's Dark Star. |
| 0:15.6 | Last week's Dark Star only clocked in about five minutes. |
| 0:18.0 | It was a kind of representative of late era Dark Stars. |
| 0:21.3 | Tonight I'm going to bring you a show from the Fillmore East that took place back in September |
| 0:24.7 | 19th, 1970. Great Dark Star. In fact, what exists of this show in Soundboard form is only the ending of the show the sort of the second set |
| 0:35.2 | starts out with a great dark star and then a fabulous just a perfectly played |
| 0:39.2 | St Stephen both of these songs contain real interesting minimalist space segments that you'll really like, |
| 0:48.0 | especially the Dark Star. St Stephen's quite well played. |
| 0:51.0 | It goes into a rockus, not fade away. And then that goes into some very |
| 0:55.2 | interesting jamming. There's a absolutely a darkness darkness jam and a China Cat jam in in there that and some other elements almost sounds like a mountain jam to me and it's some some reviews I've read they've called a feeling groovy jam. |
| 1:10.6 | Any rate it's very interesting to listen to, I think you'll enjoy it. |
| 1:14.6 | That goes into some classic pig pen, boy oh boy does it. A wonderful lovelight, a lot of interaction |
| 1:21.4 | with the crowd, and I have to warn you up front pig pens |
| 1:25.3 | He uses a profanity more than once and shocks Bobby with it. You may have heard this one before because it's quite famous |
| 1:31.4 | But be prepared for that, a little bit of warning |
| 1:35.1 | to you. It's probably not safe for work. But it's really quite interesting. Great show. I wish we had more of it on this fine sounding sound board, but we have what we have and I thought I should present it to you and hope you enjoyed as much as I do. |
| 1:51.0 | This is a professor. I'm so glad you could pick this up this week. I want to thank those |
| 1:54.6 | of you who are able to contribute to the Dead Pod and keep it on the air. Thanks so much. This is a |
