Pittsburg, PA, Stanley Theatre
Two of the new songs that would be recorded in 1980 for Go To Heaven, along with Minglewood Blues, which was on three Grateful Dead albums in their first 16 years (The Grateful Dead, Shakedown Street, Dead Set). Easy To Love You was dropped in 1980 before returning for a handful of performances in 1990.

    No way!

    Haha right before bed, I decided to give it one last shot and searched alternative sources for any shows in Feb/Mar ‘70. I was convinced it was in there somewhere. Found the 2/28 show and thought, this sounds pretty close. Punched in the answer and went to bed without even listening to the whole thing! I should buy a lotto ticket today.

    Ditto

    Went with the sound, Jerry's guitar right after the chorus, and the similarities to the day before and after. But, man, you should listen to the whole show! What a scene that must have been.
    So this morning I woke up with "Mama Tried" playing in my head; Guess I lost the connection - shoulda bought a lotto ticket yesterday!

    Ha Ha woo hooo

    After seeing the 28th at Family Dog on archive in which the notes said Casey Jones was one of the uncirculated tunes that night, I threw down the search in Deadnet and it popped right up. I have a DVD on this show somewhere but wasn't set up to check it. Yet, when the tune ends Jerry clearly says Haa haaa woo hoo and that left doubt. That must have been a satisfying end of a long trip!

This has to be a joke. Pittsburg added the "h" in 1911, and I don't believe the GOGD played Pittsburg before 1911. If any can prove to me that this show was played in "Pittsburg", I will believe it. Anyone have a ticket stub to prove this? Everywhere I've looked, it's "Pittsburgh". TPTB are simply wrong. Once again, somebody put down the pipe too late before inputting this answer. Merry Pranksters seem to be running the show this year, but I'm still enjoying the ride.
