my first show

My first show. I was sixteen and didn't know what hit me...

Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile....

Huge crowd

Funny, no mention of Zimmy. I read in the Chronicle that the crowd was 75K, but knowing Bill he oversold it and I would
say attendance 95K or pehaps even more.

By far the largest grouping of humanity I have ever experienced. Sat in the 3rd base line
and could not see the stage so well due to the distance, but the sound and crowd was great.

Stuck inside mobile was a treat and a half. Shelter from the Storm was my favorite.

This and Mountain Aire made the summer great for me.

Was it me... or did Bob Dylan....

look about one step away from "homelessness".... seemed to be "dressed" in rags... poor Bob, those were a few tough years in that strech prior to re-hooking back up with Tom Petty and the Boys once again!

Loved the line-up of songs, but felt the Boys really "carried" Bob D through this one.... Loved the additional effort getting through Watchtower.

Love you Bob D., but Gerry, I'll always love you Better - FOREVER..

..."one way or another"-New Speedway Boogie.... and "you need to be kissed often, and by a man who knows how"- Rhett to Scarlet - Gone with the Wind

From Santa Cruz

This was my first show in probably about 5 years. I had moved to to Santa Cruz in 81. Got a girl pregnant in 82. And she was NOT a Deadhead! What was I thinking? Money & time were hard to come by in those days. Think I had recently got a decent job. And I wasn't going to miss this combo!

Was driving her brother's Karmann Ghia that he gave us. I was having a great drive bopping to some Motown on the radio when traffic came to a stop. Couldn't find the brake fast enough and had a little fender bender. Still made it to the show. Greatly enjoyed the Dead playin Dylan but I have to agree he was looking pretty raggady.
But I remember Jerry's face. He was having a GREAT time playing with Bob.
