Steve! I can’t not tell you how much I appreciate this RUclips vid, because I always miss your show on the XM GD Show while driving. I was really missing my Big Steve. Apart from listening to the bank, you are my in depth connection to Jerry, the band, the phenomenon that I was lucky to experience. These stories only you have, so please keep recording. You know we will chime in. We are your people and we want to hear every little drop you care to share. Stay strong and strange. Love you, my friend.
Big Steve, I only got to see a handful of GD shows (inc the last one in Chicago) but they are to this day among the best experiences of my life. They to me are by FAR the greatest live band in history. THANK YOU for this!!!! I'm completely geeked out about these! Love you man!!!
There are few things better in life than exploring & discovering nooks and crannies on topics that we hold dear. 🙏 Thank you Mr S.P. for an enchanting listen. Forever grateful sir. 🙏
I can listen to these stories all day. This is the old school way of passing down information from Generation to Generation. Nothing but the truths you guys lived. Must have been so spectacular especially with the white lightning sprinkled in all the time. Things kind of culminating early at Altamont at the end of the 60's, and then starting the decade anew a few weeks later in Boston at Tea Party. That was some heavy traveling. Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Your story of how this all developed is one of the best I have heard. The right guy at the right place at the right time, it does appear you were touched by the best magic, and you handled it right. You were at the center of the musical-spiritual phenomenon of Jerry and Grateful Dead which found me over four decades ago and reverberates with me and so many of my friends and family to this day. I was inspired by the GD (Jerry and Phil in particular) to make music, and I have been doing so for many years. My son has a love for the music, and I sense that the music of the Grateful Dead will roll into the traditional music pantheon just as traditional bits like "I Know You Rider" were picked up by the Dead. I can imagine some evolution of "Uncle John's Band" being sung hundreds of years from now, maybe some phrases and names modified to fit the times, whether or not the origin is known. This here is musical history of a HIGH order. Thank you Big Steve for doing this. I'll continue to do my part.
So Steve, I first met you on the front steps of the Youth Hostel in SF near the Presidio in maybe 85.. that is a pretty benign story, but the classic was in '89. My buddy and I heard the first strains of the BMR encore @ RFK. We navigated PERFECTLY.. out of the venue, to the car, to the hotel, the Ritz in Georgetown and somehow you and Jer were already sitting at the bar. We were dumbfounded... How could y'all have beat us there? We never asked, but did you possibly take a helicopter? Anyhow, we were highguys on Molly and it was amazing to watch how Jerry got a vicarious buzz from us...I told the joke, "How many Deadheads does it take to change a lightbulb"? 💡 100...1 to do it, 49 to tape it and the other half to follow it as it burns out... You both got a good chuckle... you were babysitting I'm sure so he wouldn't get into trouble...However, in an amazing thing to watch, Jer began smoking "snipes" which were already smoked and stubbed out cigarettes in the ashtray.. Jerry was smoking our cigarette butts! Anyhow, we did have about 15 minutes of relative solitude.. then people started streaming in .. but it was an amazing slice of life for us!
Hi Steve! We met in 74 when I was working at the Golden Bear in Huntington Beach and you and Jerry’s band played a couple of nights. What great memories with you and Kid and Merle and Maria and Jerry. Wanna thank you for all your kindness and for sliding me into subsequent shows at the Keystone and Winterland.. Thanks and keep on keepin on!
That we out here in the world get a chance to hang out with you is a treasure, and a free one at that. Thank you’s aren’t enough, but what else can we do? I guess just smoke along with the show, like always. ✌️
In the 70’s I was in the navy in Okinawa and a friend of mine had Dead tapes and lsd 25 and those were my first shows. Up till dawn go to the chow hall bath and off to work. Mostly flying looking for submarines. When we got home to the bay area 6 months later I was primed for my first show and was always in the front on the rail or very close. In the video It’s so Far during playing in the band the camera catches me and my girl friend grooven to the music. Wow so blessed to be part of that. Could always see steve up there helping Jerry.
Wow, Steve, your sentiments are beautiful and I hope you know are being reflected back exponentially. We love you, I love you man. You had some challenging roles... Completely understandable what I perceived back in the day as an aloofness/guardedness if not outright disdain for the throngs seemingly at a choking point. Well, job well done, as short of popping some deadheads in the face, I can't imagine all of the pressures you guys had to endure. SMH! Thanks man! For everything! The stories!!! Loving it man. THANK YOU!
Hey Big Steve - gotta a couple of questions for you about Jerry's guitar rig: I know Jerry was using Fender Twin pre-amps that went into MacIntosh power amps to drive his Hard Trucker cabinets - but on a lot of recordings you can definitely hear that - at some point in the signal chain - he was also using Leslie speaker cabinets for chorus and vibrato...at least I think it's a Leslie - could be a Roto-Vibe; hence the reason I'm asking. An example of this would his solo from "Candyman" on Dead Set, or "Dear Prudence" from the JGB 1990 live album. So the questions I have are: A. Did Jerry actually use Leslies for his guitar rig or is it a Roto-Vibe that I'm hearing? B. If he WAS using a Leslie, was that being driven by the MacIntosh amps or was it the original amplifiers from the Leslie cabinet itself? On a completely unrelated note - I owe you a HUGE thank you. I'm sure you wouldn't remember, but you gave me a dynamite tip for flash chilling beer during the '85 Ventura shows (we were running a food truck right out of my pickup truck next to the backstage vehicle entrance - you and some other crew followed your nose to it; the ladies I was with were really cooking up a storm). The tip you gave me was tossing salt into the cooler with store bought warm beers and ice...kinda like making ice-cream. It worked like a charm and I was a very popular guy selling Budweiser slushies on a pair of 100 degree days! You have no idea how much that tip saved my ass at the time - I had just moved to Boulder and was down to my last $50 - thanks to that tip I easily made my $750 rent with cash to spare. Thanks for the tip - and for everything you do my friend!
I love all your stories, Steve, but especially your stories with just Jerry!😅 I always remember when you 2 came into the Studio late & there was a whole tank of nitrous left there from an earlier party. So you guys sit down on 2 low plastic boxes,or similar. You start toking on the nitrous and just keep on & on, laughing Next thing ya know your both on the floor, eye to eye!!😅 You both fell over & hit Noggins! You said you both got up & split for home in your own rides!!! 😂 That's hysterical cos I can relate to that happening to me & my friend back in the day! Love these stories they're so human!❤❤😂😂
Only Dead Heads know about the power of the sound gear, vibrations of the "Beam", and instruments delivering notes like cosmic rays into the crowd and the air. It was an environment. Thank you Big Steve for making it happen tour after tour.
I’m so glad that you’re doing this big Steve. You were the only reason I paid for Sirius. Now you’re giving me this gift. Love you dawg. Dr Steve in Allentown
These are amazing additions to your weekly podcast man. I love it. You’re a wealth of information and I’m so glad you’re getting this out to everyone!!!
Man I was just getting off watching a 12-31-85 New Year's show I was at which I never knew there was video of until today and it was very powerful seeing those balloons come down etc etc but then I saw a link to Parish's video chat that is only 2 days old rather than 39 years and that was a whole lotta fun to watch too. Gonna watch the rest as well. Keep telling stories, Steve!
Hello from small town Canada ,I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by music from birth, the respect I have for the Dead and what all the boys accomplished is deep , I love bluegrass and honky tonk and good blues and rock and roll in that order ,the Dead gave me all that plus ,thanks Big Steve this is awsome and you are doing what no one else could share ,,,so gracefully I will be telling my friends about you
Steve, Thanks for all the great commentary. Thanks as well for reminding folks that the VERY BEST weed back then, was often these insanely good batches of 'Mexican'. In Baltimore we got fantastic Oaxacan & killer "Delores Delango'. The latter we cloned from seed and keep that clone chain going nearly 30 years. The stuff of legend. I chuckled remembering, as you did, how folks who thought they knew good weed would often toke up this stuff and wonder what it was 'treated' with? That was always funny to me, like... yo....settle down dude, it's just Delores.... doing her thang. ;-)
As you said about Jerry being so gracious to people; I find most...not all...but most of the musicians I have setup and worked with to be very thankful and generious people.
Love you too, Big Steve! As a former roadie (much lesser level) I really appreciate your perspective on gear, logistics, etc. I always paid particular attention to you guys at shows, what a great crew!
I used to get Michoacan pot back in the mid '70s and it was some of the best I've ever had! Great memories! And I wanna hear more about STP (ep. 1), Steve! I was always curious about it but never had the opportunity. Don't leave me hangin'! LOL!
Thanks for all you did then and now. The way you share makes feel like I was there. South side strut from hooter roll is one of my all time favorites and now I get to listen to in a new light. Thanks again and keep on sharing the music through your eyes.
Greetings brother hearing you talk of the herb from those days, I keep telling people some of it was much better then what most people call the best with it’s high thc herb.today we’re missing the flavonoids , terpenes, that we used to have. By the by first saw the boys 68 Colombia quad than Fillmore east 69. I try to explain to people how close we all were than All the love smile smile smile kevin
1972, I was 9 years old. Older brother was living in Eugene & doing silk screening, he sent me a few T shirts, one said Edge city rangers..the other had a skull & roses & said grateful dead. Something about that 2nd one i liked. IDK Y... I just liked it.
Hi Steve greetings from Cleveland thanks so much for everything you do brother. I can't believe your uncle wrote stardust. Mind blower that's awesome I love that willie Nelson's version is my favorite. All the best Steve cheers 🍻
I dig it...I'd like to hear more about pigpen...hell didn't know he was getting slipped stuff...sure that would have been interesting...I heard he liked his thunder bird...
Big Steve it was @ Ceasers Tahoe in 88 Jerry's mic went dead i remember you scrambling it took a few minutes Jerry kept his cool and didnt miss a note.
Big Steve! You may be the only person who can answer this! I've always loved the groove of JGB's Everybody Needs Somebody to Love. It's different than the Solomon Burke groove, Blues Brothers and all others I have found - is Jerry's arrangement cribbed from some obscure version or is it original? Thanks!
Love you too Steve. We’re all so lucky to have you doing this. Thanks!!!!
Love ya Big Steve! We all appreciate your generosity with this series! ☮️
Steve! I can’t not tell you how much I appreciate this RUclips vid, because I always miss your show on the XM GD Show while driving. I was really missing my Big Steve.

I think all his xm shows are available to stream from the Sirius app 🤘
Big Steve, an American treasure.
Could listen to big steve all day. Fascinating
The picture with Howard and Jerry on Hooteroll burning a number is priceless.
This sure is great. These stories and photos are what I live for. Thanks Big Steve ⚡❤️🤍💙⚡🎶🎵🎵🎶😎😁🌝
We are lucky to have such a friend. Thanks Steve!
You have a calming voice like how Jerry’s was . I love how you love weed with a passion . God bless you brother .
Puffin' Tuff with Big Steve! Stories from the road, the best thing ever, except the shows of course. Thank You Mr. Parish, I mean Steve.
Big Steve, I only got to see a handful of GD shows (inc the last one in Chicago) but they are to this day among the best experiences of my life. They to me are by FAR the greatest live band in history. THANK YOU for this!!!! I'm completely geeked out about these! Love you man!!!
There are few things better in life than exploring & discovering nooks and crannies on topics that we hold dear. 🙏 Thank you Mr S.P. for an enchanting listen. Forever grateful sir. 🙏
I can listen to these stories all day. This is the old school way of passing down information from Generation to Generation. Nothing but the truths you guys lived. Must have been so spectacular especially with the white lightning sprinkled in all the time. Things kind of culminating early at Altamont at the end of the 60's, and then starting the decade anew a few weeks later in Boston at Tea Party. That was some heavy traveling. Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Can't wait to hear more of these!
You are the man Steve. I need these stories. My 1st show was a Wall (5O yrs ago )
Love you and your stories. Jerry changed my life
New years 1979 and saved my soul too.
Your story of how this all developed is one of the best I have heard. The right guy at the right place at the right time, it does appear you were touched by the best magic, and you handled it right. You were at the center of the musical-spiritual phenomenon of Jerry and Grateful Dead which found me over four decades ago and reverberates with me and so many of my friends and family to this day. I was inspired by the GD (Jerry and Phil in particular) to make music, and I have been doing so for many years. My son has a love for the music, and I sense that the music of the Grateful Dead will roll into the traditional music pantheon just as traditional bits like "I Know You Rider" were picked up by the Dead. I can imagine some evolution of "Uncle John's Band" being sung hundreds of years from now, maybe some phrases and names modified to fit the times, whether or not the origin is known. This here is musical history of a HIGH order. Thank you Big Steve for doing this. I'll continue to do my part.
Thanks for all!
So Steve, I first met you on the front steps of the Youth Hostel in SF near the Presidio in maybe 85.. that is a pretty benign story, but the classic was in '89. My buddy and I heard the first strains of the BMR encore @ RFK. We navigated PERFECTLY.. out of the venue, to the car, to the hotel, the Ritz in Georgetown and somehow you and Jer were already sitting at the bar. We were dumbfounded... How could y'all have beat us there? We never asked, but did you possibly take a helicopter?

Hi Steve! We met in 74 when I was working at the Golden Bear in Huntington Beach and you and Jerry’s band played a couple of nights.

Thanks and keep on keepin on!

Im loving the stories Big Steve! This is just beyond awesome!!! 😎

Steve, the 9 years(1986-1995)I went to shows was never a dull moment.
Wow, Steve, your sentiments are beautiful and I hope you know are being reflected back exponentially. We love you, I love you man. You had some challenging roles...

Oaxacan was my favorite. What a glow.
Bingo!
There is a crack in everything ,that’s how the light gets in
Jerry glows in the dark. That is a fact Jack.
Steve, Thanks for all the great commentary. Thanks as well for reminding folks that the VERY BEST weed back then, was often these insanely good batches of 'Mexican'.

1972, I was 9 years old. Older brother was living in Eugene & doing silk screening, he sent me a few T shirts, one said Edge city rangers..the other had a skull & roses & said grateful dead. Something about that 2nd one i liked. IDK Y... I just liked it.
Hi Steve greetings from Cleveland thanks so much for everything you do brother. I can't believe your uncle wrote stardust. Mind blower that's awesome I love that willie Nelson's version is my favorite. All the best Steve cheers 🍻

Good stuff, Steve ☮️
I dig it...I'd like to hear more about pigpen...hell didn't know he was getting slipped stuff...sure that would have been interesting...I heard he liked his thunder bird...
Big Steve it was @ Ceasers Tahoe in 88 Jerry's mic went dead i remember you scrambling it took a few minutes Jerry kept his cool and didnt miss a note.
Big Steve! You may be the only person who can answer this! I've always loved the groove of JGB's Everybody Needs Somebody to Love. It's different than the Solomon Burke groove, Blues Brothers and all others I have found - is Jerry's arrangement cribbed from some obscure version or is it original? Thanks!
This guy is so awesome man he knew jerry groovy😂😂
