Grateful Dead Hour no. 15
Week of December 12, 1988
By request, a selection of songs from March 18, 1988. This was the last of eight shows in five weeks, which put something of a strain on relations between the Bill Graham Presents/Grateful Dead team and the local citizenry. More than a few freaks decided to hang out in the neighborhood for those three weeks in between the two GD runs. There were protests to the venue's board of trustees, and several of us Deadheads who were also Oakland homeowners came to a meeting both to defend our community and to promise the neighbors we'd police our scene.
You can read a little about it in this article, which mentions the Minglewood Town Council. That's the name our little ad hoc group took for our efforts.
Anyway, the music.
Enjoy!

Grateful Dead Hour
How do I get to the past shows? Are Grateful Dead Hour and Taper's Section going to be only available for one week now? What about when I go on vacation?
