      Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

        Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

          Just look at his interviews... He's still up there with VH (in his mind, anyway)...

              Bumbershoot was a multi act festival, so Dave didnt really fill it on his own, right? Thought he played the Gorge with Hagar, so go ahead and tell us how everyone was there for Dave and nobody stayed for Hagar. Its fun to spin things but leave out parts, isnt it? Which tour of his got shut down for poor ticket sales? What was the truth behind that? I remember a show in Delaware, at a club, 2 for 1 tickets and he drew a few hundred.

              Quick lesson, if you are standing on something 8 feet above the ground and you jump off it, you havent launched yourself 8 feet in the air, let alone 18.

              How are Sams business ventures different from Ed's? 5150 stuff, guitars, striped everythings.

                        Dave was the last act on the Memorial Stadium stage that night. There was about a three hour break between the previous show on that stage, Ratdog (featuring Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead) and Dave's show, so it wasn't a case of the crowd sticking around, or an ongoing show like the US Festival or whatever. I myself spent those three hours drinking beers, both on and off the Seattle Center festival site.

                        I saw the Ratdog set also, and it had a pretty good crowd (lots of Deadheads around here, of course) but I'd say it was somewhat smaller than the turnout for Dave's show.

                          Al's bass drums are 22" in diameter.

                          3X that would be 5'6"... about Ed's height.

                          Back to my speaker reference... those are 12" speakers. I'd put Dave's ass at about 2 speakers above Ed's head... thus 7.5 - 8 feet accounting for camera angle and all that crap...

                          I stand by my previous assessment!!

                                Not really... my 12 year old daughter is in percussion in the school band and just landed the drummer position for the jazz band. We bought her a set last year for Christmas. Couple of weeks ago I had a drummer buddy and his drum tech over to teach me how to configure the damn things for a traditional jazz set up. I paid attention that day...

                                I also used to do audio engineering and back-line mgmt back in my day... been around a lot of gear and hauled a ton too. You learn how much you can fit into the back of an old toyota celica real quick...

                                I also learned a little in math class...
