Mardi Gras was a major holiday in Deadland, and for several years in the late 80s and early '90s the staff of Bill Graham Presents collaborated with the Deadheads to create a parade to celebrate the occasion in psychedelic style. In February 1990, I brought my recording rig and walked around among the various parade crews as they prepared for the big night.
