This week's Deadpod features the second set from the Dead's performance at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse NY on September 24th, 1982. This is quite a fine set, and opens with an unusual Brent opener - Far From Me.. always a song I enjoy hearing. They follow that up with a very well executed Playin' In The Band->Crazy Fingers, and Jerry does some fine work on that latter number. Weir's new song, Throwin' Stones, follows and leads into Drums and Space but they come out of that with an unusual Iko, Iko. Truckin' as always provides Garcia a nice jamming platform and he accelerates out of that into 'Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad' and then 'Black Peter'... the band then brings everyone back to earth with a nice Around and Around and a Sugar Magnolia to close the set. Phil pranks Weir by bringing out a woman from backstage and introducing her as Weir's wife of 5 years, before the Brokedown Palace encore, so you know they were loose and having fun!
