Just over a week ago I saw DSO for at least the fourth time in my life. All of the previous occasions were at the Ashland Armory. The weather was brutal, pushing 100 degrees in full sun at 6:30 and 89 degrees when they squeezed the last song in under the 10:30 curfew.
I didn’t have my camera with me so I tried out my new cell phone. The Pixel 6 Pro is supposed to have a great camera, but I’m not impressed with the results.
They duplicated the Grateful Dead setlist from December 15, 1986 that took place at the Oakland Coliseum. Ironically, even though I wasn’t at that show, I was a mere 7 miles away at home in San Leandro. I did see Saxon in Oakland four nights later. Saxon was more my speed at the time.
