Boston Celtics
Bird, McHale, Walton and Parrish were at this show.
I sort of was there.
One of two arrests for drinking in public. Used my ticket to get in the next night.
Jerry's return to New England
This show was Jerry's triumphant return to the New England area following his near-death coma and hospitalization in 1986. For many of us who didn't travel farther for shows, this was our first time seeing him, and the Dead, in a couple of years.
It was so joyous seeing him, and the Dead, back again. People were crying with happiness that Jerry was still with us, and looking good, at least for the time being. It was a very good show.
