A hot day! music and
A hot day! music and temperature wise! The Allman Bros. Band opened and jammed with the Dead for 40 or so mins. at the end. Great show!
I think you mean the '72 show
Hiya Bluesdad -
I think you are mixing up the '72 and '74 shows at Dillon stadium. The ABB/Dead at Dillon was in July of '72 I am almost certain.
Dillon Stadium '74
ProbablyDave is correct, there were no ABB on that day in '74 but bluesdad was also right that it was hot that day.
No ABB, but
what a jam: Truckin’>Jam>Mind Left Body Jam>Spanish Jam>Wharf Rat. Check it out in the Taper's Section for the week of July 30 - August 5 - you'll be glad you did :)
phew no ABB
I was confused for a minute there. All these years and I didn't remember that ABB was there. This was my first show and I was 15. Don't know why my older brother brought me, but sure am GLAD he did! I remember playing in water or being sprayed or something, so it must have been HOT. I know the music was fantastic. Changed my life. Saw many shows after that 7-15 years later with one New Years show thrown in for good measure.
Dillon Stadium '74
I seem to remember a Phil/ Ned Lagin Seastones set in between sets. Great show, my first, and I remember wondering why Pigpen wasn't there. A kind soul behind me broke the sad news that he had passed away a year or so before. I fell in love with Donna Jean that night.
It was July 16, 1972
I was at this show with my friend Lainie for her 15th Birthday
I turned fifteen 10 days later !
We are 50 now and still best friends
Went to the Grateful Dead continuously form 71-95
