By far the best combination of musicians to date to resurrect the Dead. Would have loved to have seen Mickey and Billy but was not disappointed in the least with Jay and Joe, they were great. It's probably just a nostalgia thing. And Jeff on the keys? Perfect. JK just nails the missing element post Jerry. Closed my eyes a couple of times and thought Jerry was up on stage based on both vocals and guitar. Oddly, I felt a little sad in one sense in that I was hearing Jerry but he wasn't there. And for the record, I am no expert Dead analyst but would add that I lost count of the number of show I have been to after +/- 60 and my first show was almost 31 years ago.

I will now go WAY out on a limb. These were the best post-Jerry shows that are out there. John and Jeff were incredable - and Phil OMG. He was on fire. The audiance was pretty much in a 'best show' mood afterwords. Bobby even got most of the words right! I saw both the Miami and Orlando shows. I will now go WAY out on a limb.

The best elevator gag is to tell people that if they hold down the "close door" button it turns the elevator into an express and it won't stop before reaching the lobby. Rationally, everyone knows that this can't possibly be true, but they'll still try it because they desperately want it to be true.

Those who live on the second floor and obese people. During my time living in an apartment building I have come the conclusion that laws should be put in place that force those who live on the second floor and overweight people that live below the 5th floor (there are of course extenuating circumstances like luggage and groceries) to take the stairs. It is so simple. This is that little bit of exercise per day that people could take advantage of. I have nothing against overweight people or people who live on the second floor, but they should not be using the elevators. One of the worst parts of my day is when I am de-elevating and just when I think I am going to land in the lobby, I stop on floor two…I like to say “Oh hey, is the stairwell out of order?” Well, I actually don’t say that, but I should… Elevators- But you know who can live without elevators?
