We're getting a lot of folks asking where to send corrections for assorted errors they've found in the show archives. Maybe they didn't really play "Saint of Circumstance" that night. Maybe we have the band at the Meadowlands when they were really at MSG. Maybe the boys are simultaneously in Philadelphia and Phoenix.

Whatever mistakes you've found, this is the place to report them. Please include this information to make it easier for the tech folks to deal with:

The date and/or URL of the show in question (for example, http://www.dead.net/show/june-21-1980)

A detailed description of the problem (for example, wrong town, wrong venue, no "St. Stephen," etc.)

The source of your information (for example, DeadBase, notes on your tape, "Hey, I was in the front row and I'll never forget it!")

Thank you!

(Note: once we've made the corrections, we will delete the posts to reduce confusion and redundancy. If your post disappears, that doesn't mean we're not Grateful. Quite the reverse.)

Friend, you have that torn ticket stub because...

Berkeley set up an event for that Sunday, which cause the (last ever) Greek show to be the Saturday (8/19) epic show which none of us will ever forget (killer Wharf Rat)!

So there is a "phantom" show or mirror image of your ticket which was Thurs/17 - do not ever listen to a note of this show. My take is the boys knew that the faithful would not be able to make this show due to last-minute travel changes, and subconsciously or not make it forgettable in the extreme. Honestly, it does not even sound like music.

As great as 8/19 was and is, 8/17/89 is "a date which will live in infamy." Conversely, 8/18/89, Friday, was a perfectly good show (and I called the set opener, sang it to myself all the way there on BART - true story).

Peace, fellow traveller, and get yo'self a copy of 8/19 (it was on KPFA and elsewhere, so there are good copies circulating.

There is an error in the song list. The last but one song is Standing on The Moon, not Stander on the Mountain.
DeadBase agrees, so does the cd I've just played of this show.

I click on the show details and there are notes, but no set lists.

Did the dead really play at the Fillmore East and at the Pauley Ballroom in Berkeley on the same day? dead.net show list lists them on the same day. Can we get some clarification?

Thanks

There doesn't seem to be a complete recording of this show, but they closed out the 2nd set with Around and Around (with the Johnny B. Goodish instrumental break in the middle).

While listening to GD Radio play-back the Cotterell Gym show from Nov. 4, 1977 Hamilton NY. I was reading the comments posted and picked up that prior show was in Toronto, not Cincinnati.

Here is what "Tone Monster" wrote that help me catch this venue mistake.

I was the "stage manager" for this show at Colgate. Basically in charge of helping the road crew load and off load. As soon as they got there the head roadie asked me if I could get them any drugs. "Like what ? " I asked. Anything; we just came across the border (from Canada) so we have nothing. I rounded up some pot, uppers and ludes from some dealers I knew who were pleased to be providing the Dead with some recreational diversions. Sat backstage for the whole show but don't remember much so it's great to revisit the set list and peoples comments about the show.

Cub Sez: Cheers !
