dead comment
Dead dreams from another land
took my little sister, who scored tickets for me . i came back east to see family. mom payed for the tickets. since i was born in norfolk (nafuck if you lived there) poorboy became my moniker among the norcal crowd. "left my home in nafuck virginia california on my mind" Promiseland as an opener was one of those Dead moments where there was more going on than what met the eye.
First Show
This was my first show, drove up from Richmond and remember the Wall of Sound. Mars Hotel had just come out. Ran into friends from the Midlothian, VA area.
The Wall
The Wall of Sound, Ned Lagin and Phil doing a little "Seastones" electronica during the intermission, and a version of "To Lay Me Down" that everyone ought to hear. Bad actors: a loud and large drunken contingent near us who incessantly hollered for "Casey Jones." They managed to get a good section of the crowd worked up and even started booing (!) after a blistering "Sugar Magnolia" had closed the set, and kept it up even after the house lights came on. Finally the band came out and played it just to shut them up.
