What is the main advantage to the Grateful Dead's wall of sound public address system? The main advantage of the Grateful Dead's "Wall of Sound" public address system was that it allowed the band to hear exactly what the audience was hearing because the speaker arrays were placed behind them, eliminating the need for separate stage monitors and providing a clear, distortion-free sound with each instrument having its own dedicated speaker set, preventing audio interference between instruments; essentially acting as its own monitoring system.
Why are there two microphones used in the Grateful Dead wall of sound? The Grateful Dead's "Wall of Sound" utilized two microphones for each vocalist to effectively cancel out feedback by using a technique called "differential microphone" where one microphone is wired in reverse polarity to the other, meaning when combined, the sound coming from the speakers (which could potentially cause feedback) is cancelled out while only the vocalist's signal remains amplified; essentially, the second mic acts as a noise cancellation mechanism.

HINT! Save $145 by NOT Buying a Ticket to Dead & Co at the Sphere in Las Vegas. I Bet you Would be Able to Hear the Music and See the Lightshow from Outside... and Then you Would be able to Spend that Money on "SOMETHING ELSE!" I Remember Going to The Further Festival at the Shoreline in Mountain View and enjoying the show from a Grassy Knoll with the poor boys overlooking the Parking Lot... It was a Very Long Concert and about Halfway thru I Walked over to a Chinese Restaurant... and when I got back they were still playing Music... including a Sample of a Train Whistle that totally fooled me... I asked the man sitting next to me: "Where is the Train Around Here?" and he responded: "It's a Synthesizer Onstage..."
I also Remember the Reno Hilton Steve Miller/George Thorogood Concert... outdoors... and we could hear it Great from the Parking Lot... at the end of the concert they played a 12 bar blues song... and both men traded lead guitar riffs... THAT was EPIC.
The REAL Reason I won't be going to the Concert is... I'm too old... Walking a city block is exhausting and I have to sit down... a major adventure is beyond me... The Price is not too high when I consider that Hotel Rooms are VERY Cheap!
What's bad about being Old is: The Rainbow Gathering will be in California this summer and the Idea of a Long Hike and sleeping outdoors is no longer something I want to do...

First and foremost I am proud to be an American and that the grateful dead originated in the United States of America. I have a college degree in psychology and sociology.in doing so over the years I have learned much about myself as well as the people that surround me. I am tired of making comments of the ken ,Barbies and biffs who choose to attend the sphere shows ...though I may post a humorous pics or two. In reality America is the melting pot of the world. The introduction of the Internet and social media has changed everyones life. As is known change is a constant in this world and we all have to adapt at at one time or another. Yes, I am of the elder generation now but I was young once as were you. I chose to be with the best and wisest people I could meet at dead shows and learned to appreciate the music that feeds us all. As a whole looking at the big picture alot of people still want to experience a dead show because it is a special thing. I respect that. I was blessed to see the band many times front row. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. I am thankful to feel part of the family. Things have changed. God bless the original members of the band for keeping the fire going. All I ask is that for those newbies to respect the elders who are there truly for the music. It's like a religion. It's not all about the drugs. All comments welcome.
Religion is an existential threat to humanity... because it has been weaponized by those who believe in it. Simply, supporting and believing in it does us no justice in the bigger picture of stewardship of our planet. In fact it holds us back. Look, the only way out of this is to make it cease to exist. And learn from it. Realize as a populace that it is a form of indoctrination (and therefore brainwashing). Actually, to me it seems as if religion is already imploding, perhaps with the spread of the abundance of information being passed via the internet. For sure, information is power. Sometimes I wonder if we will see the discovery of intelligent alien life during our lifetimes. Like out in the open info where no one can deny their existence. Certainly that would be the final nail in the coffin of organized religions, would it not? 'Certainly' may be a reach. Admittedly. In my mind, the Conservative Movement remains the foremost threat to our democracy and likely our entire future. The climate isn't waiting for us to take ourselves out... it is actively changing before our eyes and we are doing little to change ourselves. It makes us wonder why they would call them Conservatives. They ain't conserving anything other than their dying ideology stemming from systemic racism and religious bigotry. And what we need instead is to move forward and learn how to adapt to what is coming. There's some certainty in if they win the day though. Because certainly we will never make it if the conservative movement moves takes full control of our government which moves us backwards. We will eventually cease to exist due to our own accord. No, the only way to get through this is to bring truth to the table and vote out those who would have us thrown in prison (just because we vote differently). Vote those out who hide behind the bully (pulpits)... for they are the weak ones. The most important election of our lifetimes is right around the corner. Definitely resembles good vs. evil in my book (i'm an ex-catholic, recovering). Bu if we elect rational human beings capable of empathy and critical thinking... who is critical of faith-based philosophies (the cause of so many wars and hardships) - but which can work with the other side a bit - then we stand a chance to see our way through this dark era of the MAGA movement in our country. And perhaps then the world... would follow and revert to more liberal policies which provide safety nets and more thoughtfulness to the climate. And we could tax the churches and use that money to help the local communities and provide shelters to the homeless, with prospects as incentives. But the ...as evidenced by... examples continue to pop up all around us - on the dailey. And what it really comes down to is we simply need to do more to stop and even reverse the damages we've done to our planet and the species on it. Enter Science. Because we don't figure shit out by praying.
The sensory input devices on the front and sides of your head are scooping up data from the roil of energy all around you and streaming it to your onboard biocomputer, which uses these vibrations to construct a concept of what the world must be like beyond the confines of its bony encasement. This you call "reality." The known universe lies behind your nose and between your ears. And the only one who can know it is YOU.
