Dead Show/podcast for 1/2/26

As we turn the calendar to 2026, we present the second set from the band's performance at the Boston Music Hall on December 1, 1973.  This is a very interesting second set, with songs that you don't always associate with that second set making an appearance.  They open with what is often a set closer - 'Around and Around' Then ease into some more traditional fare, with 'They Love Each Other' and 'Me & My Uncle' Things get interesting for me with 'Me and Bobby McGee' a favorite from the period, then 'Mississippi Half-Step' before we get to the real meat of set 2 with a 'Playin' In The Band> Uncle John's Band'>Playin' sandwich. a nice 'Row Jimmy folows then a rocking 'Greatest Story' and a fine 'Not Fade Away'>Goin Down the Road Feelin' Bad'.   Grateful Dead Boston Music Hall Boston, MA 12/1/1973 - Saturday Two      Around And Around  They Love Each Other  Me And My Uncle  Don't Ease Me In  Me And Bobby McGee  Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo [7:35]  Playing In The Band [13:42] > Uncle John's Band [9:16] > Playing In The Band [6:44]  Row Jimmy  Greatest Story Ever Told  Not Fade Away [10:24] > Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad [8:23] > One More Saturday Night [5:05]   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod010226.mp3   My most sincere thanks to those of you who kindly supported the Deadpod this past year - and to everyone who enjoys the show and makes producing this podcast a pleasure. thank you.
