Furthur at AllState Arena 11-18-2011
furthur - 11/18/2011 at AllStateArena Rosemont Illinois
The November chill did not put a damper on the Furthur concert as those who attended were treated to a fantastic show and a HUGE Shakedown Street outside! The songs ranged from the beginning Scarlet Begonias thru Staggerlee and a Playing in the Band set with Dear Mr. Fantasy, St. Stephen and of course the inimitable Shakedown Street. the music presented here was taped by Jeff Frank and is on Archive.org. Not as good a quality as the one I purchased at the further.net site, but that is the point. For less than a buck a song you got yerself a great concert that is worth the money to download at Furthur’s site.
So click the “click the little juke box to play each song” and enjoy the day!

Jerry Garcia Band – The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
Jerry Garcia’s ancestry was Galician (Spanish), Irish, and Swedish… He was born in San Francisco, California, on August 1, 1942, to Jose Ramon “Joe” Garcia and Ruth Marie “Bobbie” Garcia…His parents named him after composer Jerome Kern… Garcia was their second child, preceded by Clifford Ramon “Tiff” Garcia, who was born in 1937… Shortly before Clifford’s birth, their father and a partner leased a building in downtown San Francisco and turned it into a bar, a move in response to Jose being blackballed from a musician’s union for moonlighting…
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down lyrics
Songwriters: Robertson, Robbie;
Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train
‘Til Stoneman’s cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of ’65, we were hungry, just barely alive
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell
It’s a time I remember, oh so well
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
They went, “La, la, la”
Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she called to me
“Virgil, quick, come see, there go the Robert E.Lee”
Now I don’t mind choppin’ wood, and I don’t care if the money’s no good
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest
But they should never have taken the very best
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singing
They went, “La, la, la”
Like my father before me, I will work the land
And like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand
He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the mud below my feet
You can’t raise a Caine back up when he’s in defeat
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singing
They went, “Na, na, na”
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
They went, “Na, na, na”

Jerry Garcia & David Grisman – Whiskey In The Jar
Jerry Garcia & David Grisman Whiskey In The Jar
Lyrics
As I was a-goin’ over Gilgarra mountains
I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting
I drew forth my pistol and I rattled my sabre
Saying “stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver”
Chorus
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There’s whiskey in the jar
The shining yellow coins did sure look bright and jolly
I took the money home and I gave it to my Molly
She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me
But the devil’s in the women for they never can be easy
[chorus]
When I awoke between the hours of six and seven
Guards were standing ’round me in numbers odd and even
I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken
I fired off my pistols and a prisoner was taken
[chorus]
They put me in jail without a judge or jury
For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early
They didn’t take my fist so I knocked down the sentry
And I bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary
[chorus]
Some take delight in fishing and bowling
Others take delight in carriage a-rollin’
I take delight in the juice of the barley
Courting pretty women in the morning so early
