Saw Jerry and the band at the Fox in Atlanta in April, 80. What a fantastic venue for a Dead show. The sun set, the band came on, the planetarium there is so cool. We left the atmosphere about third or 4th song, went out into deep space and came back, reentered the ozone and touched down right as the sun was about to rise. What a show and cemented my seat on the bus. Anyone else seen a dead show at the Fox?

Decent show, good energy, like the set list, but the distortion is terrible!
I’m with some others here: think 4/12is a much better played and sounding show, but I like 4/13 better? Weird?Nice story 1stshow!
Those ones we missed it by this much…still drive me crazy!

The Red Rocks show I almost saw and heard some of from the parking lot, lol. I think this was when I was managing a pizza delivery place and could not get the day off, then it slowed down and I got my asst. mgr. in training to cover for me and raced down to Morrison from Ft. Collins to catch what I could. Ended up doing a big favor for a fighting couple who would not take the same car home. I gave her and another girl a ride home. Big favor as they eventually married. Kindness or missed opportunity, I'm not sure which, lol.
Cheers
I see why BC likes this 1st set! My original tape from the 90s of this had bad sound quality so the Normanized version is a huge improvement.
Both this show and 7-8 had some major equipment issues and lots of delays which are gone now in the box release. But they made it right and it was the most amazing show I ever attended. Those Red Rocks have superb acoustics!
