Dream Deadlist - Box of Rain (1972)

In honor of my Dead and Co run starting this Monday in Camden- I am going to make my dream Setlist as songs of the day.

TODAY - Box of Rain 
They had it right to start off the Fare the Well tour with this beautiful, powerful, Phil Lesh song. Bob Weir has stated they hope to do this one in the Summer tour because it is right in John's wheelhouse. How about Monday?! ;)

Foolish Heart


Carve your name
Carve your name in ice and wind
Search for where 
Search for where the rivers end
Or where the rivers start
Do everything that's in you
That you feel to be your part
But never give your love, my friend,
Unto a foolish heart...

Weather Report Suite - 1974


"Winter rain, now tell me why, Summers fade, and roses die.
The answer came; the wind and rain.
Golden hills, now veiled in grey, Summer leaves have blown away
Now what remains? The wind and rain
...
Winter grey and falling rain, we'll see summer come again,
Darkness falls and seasons change (gonna happen every time).
Same old friends the wind and rain, Summers fade and roses die,
You'll see summer come again, Like a song that's born to soar the sky."

The Wheel - Grateful Dead 1977


The wheel is turning 
and you can't slow down
You can't let go 
and you can't hold on
You can't go back 
and you can't stand still
If the thunder don't get you 
then the lightning will...

Gravity


Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down

Oh I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away

Oh, gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down

Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more
That's gonna send me to my knees

Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me
Oh gravity has taken better men than me- how can that be?

Just keep me where the light is

Farewell to you old southern sky... GRATFUL DEAD 1977

Half Step Mississippi Uptown, Toodeloo!


"If all you got to live for
is what you left behind
get yourself a powder charge
and seal that silver mine"

Now when all of the bandits that you turned your other cheek to
All lay down their bandanas and complain
And you want somebody you don't have to speak to
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
