This was the first show after a long layoff, as Jerry once again took time off to deal with health issues. Folks were ready for the band's return. Many of us Deadheads gathered at Brooklyn's bar, near McNichols, to enjoy tunes and brews before the show.
Several folks put together an "Ain't No Time to Hate" campaign to protest Colorado's Amendment 2. This proposal to deny protection to the gay and lesbian community did pass; however, 3 years later the case reached the U.S.Supreme Court. Known as Romer vs Evans, our top court tossed out the amendment on May 20, 1996 (Scalia, Rehnquist & Thomas dissenting). Does anyone still have their sticker?
Location
Brad and I drove my car from Kirksville to Denver to see the show. It was snowing and the parking lot was magical. At a mile high, balloons take on a whole different meaning. I picked up a very cool hat and gloves at this show that I still have. My kids laugh at the hat. We saw Greg P. at the show and that was a trip.
