    I really liked that Grass Valley show
    It's not considered one of the all-time greats, but the vibe was great. And some local group was selling limeade, as I recall, and it was fabulous.

Spent the day in Utah with the band up in the hills, where at least one person was observed entering the show under the canopy of a parachute, with purple smoke trailing behind him; some folks had set up a tarp in the middle of the crowd, upon which target the parachutist then made his graceful landing. As he passed over my head, I could see that he was dancing and had a ticket in his hand. Just a day like any other day, back when we had a Grateful Dead.
