St. Stephen59 Great time. The lady I drove down from Eugene ate too many of the local Berkeley veggies and spaced out during the show. A lot of fun though and a great venue.

Still In Heaven From The Day Before, told my friends that it was cool where I saw the show from the day before (walkway above seats and second set from the flag pole on the Brent side of the Theater), But I wanted to be in THE FRONT, they had told me that at Dead Shows you could go anywhere you wanted, not like other bands whose fans would kill you if you tried to get in front of them. So when we arrived at about 4:45 pm (5 o'clock show on Saturday) me and my friend went down to the floor and mosed on over to a spot just beneath Brent's keyboard, when the band hit the stage it was pandimonium, never before had I witnessed such extreme joy from an audience, truly a loved band, and when they launched into the Feel Like A Stranger, I could swear that Bob keep looking at me like "Who's This Freak ?" Truly my first of numerous Dead Moments. Bro Esau was called Shadow Boxing at this time by us Heads. The Second Set was awesome with incredible jamming and I was hooked again. The Playing Jam was very hot. I love this tape. The Sky Was Yellow And The Sun Was Blue People Stopping Strangers Just To Shake Their Hand.

I will just say that this was one of the best Shakedowns I saw. I remember that Jerry, Bobby, and Brent were screaming the chorus back and forth at each other. This was the best of the three amazing nights. Great. Dougles
