Sorry it took so long to get this out there. Now that the Chicago shows are over I can start working on a few more vines. Here’s the 3rd and final part of the Early 69’ series. Its going to be 7 audio cd’s

Grateful Dead
4-13-69

Ballroom, University of Colorado,
Boulder, Colorado

SBD>MR>C>D>CD>EAC>SHN

Disc 1

1. Lovelight//
2. //Doin' That Rag
3. Good Morning, Little Schoolgirl
4. Morning Dew

Disc 2

1. Dark Star%-->
2. St. Stephen-->
3. The Eleven-->
4. Death Don't Have No Mercy
5. Alligator-->
6. Drums-->
7. Jam//

Several minutes are lost in the cuts at the end of Lovelight and the
beginning of Doin' That Rag. There is a minor splice roughly 10 minutes
into Dark Star. The end of this show is obviously missing and probably
consisted of Caution as the jam out of drums suggests.

Grateful Dead
4-15-69

The Music Box,
Omaha, Nebraska

SBD>MC>?>CD>EAC>SHN

1. Morning Dew
2. It Hurts Me Too
3. China Cat Sunflower-->
4. Doin' That Rag

This excerpt of the show represents all that circulates from Bear's master
cassette. The rest of the setlist that is missing is unknown. It is likely
that at least one generation was involved before the digital transfer.
