    izzie's been busy! thanks for bringing the history back on track. I'll add that on 10/20/89 the boys played 'California Earthquake' for the first time, and... on 10/23/89 they played it for the very last time. (or the second time depending on your pointof view) peace.

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.
