Let it Grow
The iteration of Let it Grow performed at this show was incredible. Estimated Prophet was good but not spectacular. This was my first and last California Dead show and....well, they play much better on the road! Most of the Cleveland, Columbus, and Huntington shows that I'd attended were musically far better than this one.
Thought I heard a baby crying....
This is one of those small theaters that was built for orchestras and so the accoustics are very good. Anyone can be heard from anywhere in the audience.
During the song "Morning Dew"; the 3rd verse I think; "thought I heard a baby crying", the voice of a single person could be heard coming from the back half of the audience singing harmony on this line along with Jerry from the stage; spontaneous applause immediately following the line; I was the singer in the back that sang the harmony to that line of the song.... It was a great that everyone seemed to enjoy the spontaneous voice from the back... One of my best memories!

Desolation Row
I'll probably never be able to document all the shows I went to, but I remember being there for the first set, to see Bobby do "Desolation Row," one of my favorite Dylan songs.
