    dire wolf??

    Ace (as in Bob Weir?) named his dog Otis I believe
    
    At least that was his dogs name in 1980 or so. Don't know
    if Otis is still kicking, gets kicked, or kicked it yet though.

    Why would an elk (not to be confused with Anne Elk [Miss]) have a dog?
    
    I believe Otis went to the great kennel several years ago.

     I've seen quite a few elk here in colo, but never seen an elk with a
    dog!

    Reminds me of a "stupid Bob joke"
    
    Bob: Hey Phil, my dog has no nose?
    
    Phil: How does it smell?
    
    Bob: Blomming aweful !
    
    From a '71 tape I think......

       I have that joke on a tape from Saratoga...1985, I think....the same
    show where they yell at some guy to get back in his seat....
    
             DaveB.
    

The Dead yelled at some guy to get back in his seat?!?  What was he doing,
throwing rocks or something?

I think, if this is the same tape, Phil yells at some guy hanging from
a railing and says something like - "We don't care if you hurt yourself
but we do care if you fall on other people".  I even think they mention
something about what the people around him must think of him for causing
a show stoppage (but not sure about that).

    I was at the show at SPAC when that happened... the guy was litterally
    hanging off the balcony and security tried to get to him but couldn't
    so in between songs Phil and Bob asked the guy to get back in his seats
    requesting his friends to help him do this.... and yep, they mentioned
    they you can do to yourself what ever you want, but if you fall on
    someone else..... 
    
    I think Bob used that joke more than once....

Does not surprize me.  I have several tapes from as early as '71 telling the
NY crowd to behave (move back, etc)...

Yea, remember when they had to ask the crowd to move back in Foxboro, 
MASSACHUSETTS?  Or when someone threw a beer bottle on stage in Providence,
RHODE ISLAND?  Maybe these states are too close to New York, or it was
all the New Yorkers in the crowd, yea - that's probably it.   :-)

    Doesn't surprise me either.  I have several tapes from as early as '87
    with JC complaining about NY on them.  :-)
    
    

    That Providence show with the thrown beer bottle was my first show.
    
    dave

    Hey now, nuthin' wrong with New York ... it's New Yorkers that's the
    problem ... (go ahead Lisa, hit me now) ... ;^)
    
    Whatsa difference whether it was NY, MA, RI, CONN ... it's pretty much
    the same crowd that attends any of the showz between about Landover,
    Buffalo, and Augusta N.E.way.

    good digression

    The dog's name is Otis and he's dead. :-(
    
    
    
    

    Yeah, he fell off the Dock of the Bay and drowned ...

    
       Poor old Otis dead and gone
       Left me here to sing this song
       Pretty little girl with the red dress on
       Poor old Otis dead and gone
    
         Ohhh....I'm sorry...thought this was the Name that Tune note...
    

Yes, I remember the foxboro show when they said it is time to move back (my
tape does not have that part!).

The northeast crowd tends to lack some general respect in comparision to,
say, the Colorado crowd that I experienced last December.

Has anyone ever heard any "gate-storming" stories that occurred in the West or
the South?

    Sorry 'bout that. :-) Caught me by surprise. Don't usually start the decks 
    rolling until after Jerry turns around. :-) Kinda tough to see around that 
    big'ol soundboard, ya know. So, rather than record it cut, I let it go. Want
    I should locate a copy and use it for filler on the Fall tour tapes? :-)
    :-) :-)

    I got it ! its not complete (missing a few sec.) but its very good :')

I don't remember, did they bang out Finiculi Finicula during the "take a step
back rag" at Foxboro?

    RE .18
    
    Now there's a tune I haven't heard in at least two decades ... the
    Doors ... Runnin' Blues, wasn't it ???
    
    ... Bob (who was a Doors fan before he ever heard of the Grateful Dead)
    

    re .22
    
    	it was "English Country Garden"...

   I have an old bootleg album of an old Hollywood Palladium show that starts
off with a distorted Bertha. After the song and crowd applause Bobby speaks:
"Hey you down there with the microphone, if you want to get a decent recording,
you're going to have to move back about 40ft." Next song, 'Playin', is defi-
nately a little clearer sounding.

    after talkin to Chris McLaughlin I figured out were his note was going
    so lets try this again !

This is indeed 8-6-71 ... this tape does sound decent after the guy moves
back (i believe my copy was mastered by the taper Bob spoke too)
