Incredible 2nd set
The second set, with Let it Grow and St. Stephen coming and going in the medley, was incredible and has always stood out in my memory as being some of the finest moments in my Dead life!
The Mail Order Ticket Lottery
Remember? The lottery, mail order was how tickets were sold.
My tickets came, and I had seats in row"CCC". I was bummed, I figured we were two alphabet sequences (A-Z) in the way-back section.
A few days before the show I was telling a friend about the lousy seats, and he said that the triple letter rows were in the old orchestra pit, when the Tower had live bands playing for shows. I went nuts, but was still skeptical.
So, fast forward to the show, and giving the usher the tickets. My friend & I were led all the way down to the front into a small sectioned off area not 8 feet from the stage. It was incredible.
Great seats, a great show, it is as fresh as last month. Fun, fun, fun.

On Archives
I had a friend of mines son make me a CD of this show from Archives.org, it really sounds good and I let him do it mp3 style because He only had one disc. Really good quality, love hearing the crowd. Jim

Happy 35th anniversary!
This was my first show - wow 35 years ago! The show actually started with a pretty long rendering of Bob Weir's nonsensical story of the Little Yellow Dog.
