    Missing show between Low Library and Central Park
    On May 4th, 1968, the band played SUNY - Stoney Brook - in the middle of Long Island. It was some sort of end of semester "dance". There was a cake backstage because it was Sunshine's 2nd birthday, which someone set firecrackers into at some point.Can't say I remember the set list, though!

    October 31, 1969 concert at San Jose State College
    I was part of the group of students who booked this GD show on Halloween 1969 to celebrate the opening of the new SJSU College Union. The poster image on this listing is wrong. The poster for the concert was by Scott Peterson and was a dark forest scene with a devilish ghoul cavorting around a fire in an evil woods, and I have a copy of that poster. Please fix this. I'm a hardcore Dead Head and saw about 15-20concerts, plus I own over 50 of their concert CDs.

    Not sure this qualifies, but the Roll Out The Barrel just before Eyes is pretty significant as a number. Your call.

    The 30 trips around the sun USB
    I have a Major important question about the USB Besides the fact that the USB is the same price as the box set, the fact we don't get the book is an issue, but I know you won't be doing anything about that.... which honestly kinda sucks Given the cost to produce the USB package vs the cd package (but still charging the same don't seem right, if your being honest with yourself....you should agree) Most importantly..... Will the 2nd sets of these shows run uninterrupted ? CDs fade out at end of disk two Fading back into disk three..... l hate that, can't sit back and chill to a second set that way! The reason I bought the USB is so there would be no breaks in the middle of the sets like the CDs will obviously be. This is probably a major issue for all people buying the USB (Even though there is only 1,000 of us) We don't get the booklet or the fancy box But that's not a problem, if they run uninterrupted I did not want the CDs for that reason (and storage too) as well as wanting 24/96 resolution (sweet) Has this question been brought up by anyone?and I hope you guys were smart enough to master the USB as uninterrupted shows, unlike the CDs (more work for you guys but you are charging enough for this package now dubbed "BOXILLA") I truly will be disappointed if there is breaks in the middle of a set This issue will be a major problem I'll want my money back if they are these interruptions, so....... Look forward to a response Thomas A. Violagis Jr.

    I'm very glad to hear someone else felt the rain at exactly the same time they started...not close, not near, but EXACTLY. when i relay that story, i think people believe i am exaggerating. the rain set for the pouring rain was way too cool, too much fun. too sad it was too near the end for Jerry.

    Ditto, not only did there used to be poster relevant to each show date there were pictures from the show, too. Something happened one day and everything went kerplunk. I think it might have been a data disaster. I have posted your request on other forums once or twice. Dead minds think alike!

Isn't "Never Trust A Woman" the correct title of "Good Time Blues"? I saw this on the 09/25/81 Stabler Arena show Setlist. I always enter it as Never Trust A Woman on my setlists. "Never trust a woman who wears tight pants ..." Rock on Brent!

Correction: Fire on the Mountain does not appear on the set list on this page. This Lindley Meadows show was one of my favorites. I am sure they played Fire on the Mountain because it is the first place I ever heard it played. I remember remarking to my friend how awesome it sounded bumping along and teasing in its intro and jam. I don't recall how it was placed in the setlist though. Aren't there recordings of this concert to verify what was played from? I remember seeing mics in the air and a mixing board area in the middle of the crowd that had to be negotiated around.

I have the biggest problem with this show. Not so much with the set list, nor with the opener. I know the Starship/Airplane (whatever incarnation) opened for them that day. The problem I have is that the concert wasn't held at Lindley Meadows. I remember it being held at Marx Meadow and sitting on the hill overlooking the stage looking down. If you know Golden Gate Park (I've lived in San Francisco since 1973), the only place you can do that is at Marx Meadow. Lindley Meadows is way to open for me to do that. For the last seven years I've worked on the staff of the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival that puts up stages at Speedway, Marx, and Lindley Meadows (90 performers on 5 stages over 3 days) and I know the venue very well. I still think that it was Marx Meadow for this concert. I need to have a little more info to help me prove that it was Lindley Meadow. Thanks. Also, I don't see mention of a free concert that they played at the Cow Palace for an old stereo outfit called Pacific Stereo. They gave away thousands of tickets to the concert but didn't let everyone in and a riot ensued with broken windows and cops in riot gear. I seem to remember a retail stereo show for gear followed by a concert with a couple of bands that included The Starship and The Grateful Dead. Phil was playing on the right side of the stage just above me and the music was really loud with notes coming out of the speakers like bubbles and popping over the audience. Then some lady came out on stage and said that she just wanted everyone to just please go home now. We left the Cow Palace to our car through a line of cops with nightsticks and riot gear - it scared the hell out of us. Anyway, memory gets fuzzy at that point. I'm not sure if the whole weekend was involved or if this was "the big night" or not. I have a feeling that the Butterfield Blues Band is in there somewhere. I don't remember the date though, sorry.

I remember going to that Pacific Stereo free show at the Cow Palace. I think it was 1969, but I'm not 100% on that. What I do remember is that there were lots of fights in the stands during that show. This show was the reason I didn't go to Altamont (another free show), I went to shows for the music and to have a good time, not to get into fights. I've NEVER regretted skipping Altamont.

A couple issues for the 3/5/71 listing: The notes are for the Airwaves Benefit which was on 3/3/71. Also the 3/5/71 poster says the show was held at the Oakland Auditorium Arena (aka the Kaiser). The dead.net listing says Fillmore West. Does anyone if it actually was held at Fillmore West?

This listing is kind of screwy - it says this show was at the Syndrome. The Syndrome was in Chicago so that can't be right. Poster says it was at the Carousel Ballroom (Fillmore West). Also, the "previous show" link takes you to 3/18/71! And the "next show" link takes you to 3/4/70. I know time could get kind of funky at shows but still...

sorry for the repetition - no way to edit my original 3/5/71 post I guess. Anyway, the "previous show" link at 3/5/71 takes you to 2/24/71, not 3/3/71. I'm guessing all the confusion is due to the fact that the 3/3/71 poster actually says 3/3/70 so that show originally must've been listed as 3/3/70. (the ticket stub for the 3/3/71 clearly shows that the airwaves benefit was indeed on 3/3/71 so the poster must be wrong. See http://www.psilo.com/dead/showimage.php?iid=67&text=03-03-71%20Ticket)

hi.clearly, someone just made a typing error here. in your listing for set II, scarlet>fire is erroneously repeated after samson. in other words, here is the correct reading for 2/5/78 set 2: Scarlet>Fire, Samson, Ship of Fools, Truckin'>Jam>Drums>Other One>Wharf Rat>Around and Around E: U.S. Blues peace.

I have an old cassette boot of this and I am on some sort of trivial personal crusade to set the record straight about this show ... Joan Baez came out after the Dead finished US Blues and introduced the members of the band, then she called all the musicians that had performed that day out onto the stage, and they all sang a Joan staple titled "Bridging the Gap." So Amazing Grace DOES NOT follow US Blues as stated here and elsewhere ... I can prove it.

If you look at the comments following Alabama Getaway on lyrics page, it says it was played once on 23 Apr 84. According to setlist for the 23rd it wasn't but was played 27 Apr 84 at Providence Civic Center as opener. I know this is true was there. Thanks

April 10, 1971- Franklin and Marshall College. It's not there. But it happened. There are lots of good AUD masters floating around and I know people who went. Also a bunch of the 1971 shows don't have set lists. Let me know if you want me to put them together for you.

I would say Bruce where he kinda just played a few times when Vince was there. I don't really consider him a band member. Kinda like Clarence Clemons I've seen him a few times with the dead and he's not a member. Doesn't seem like being the keyboardist for the dead is a cursed position.

I have one small correction in the set list for 10-10-1981 to make. In the first set, “Big River” was not played. Instead, they played “Feel Like A Stranger”. http://www.dead.net/show/october-10-1981 A scan of my ticket is on this page: http://www.syntheory.com/policult/concerts/index.html And my excellent photos of the show are off of this page: http://www.syntheory.com/policult/concerts/gdead/index.html Keep up the good work; great website, Ken Windish, dead.net member “kwindish”. PS: Should you go to my website and see a photo you’d like to see on dead.net, let me know and I’ll upload it as a fanphoto! kwindish@gmail.com Peace.

It is a minor detail, to be sure, but Los Lobos played at this gig. I believe they were before Santana. Jerry came out and played some licks when Los Lobos did Bertha.

5-26-77 Baltimore is missing from your show database. Deadbase has it listed, and I have a copy of the boards from that night, So I know it exists, but it is not in the database on your site.
