We stayed at the Hyatt on Braod St. way up north at the other end of Broad from where the venue is. Well, the band was staying there and we were coming out the front doors and who is sitting there out front but Mickey. He was perturbed because he had gotten left. Well he was very nice and we got to chat a little bit. We didn't talk but a bit because he was agitated about his ride situation. We all run into the same old problems. Thats life.

laurence stone and i had a great time miss you
rchmond does suck, virginia is really a police state anymore, never stopped me from having fun but the legal bills personal costs and hassles. I'll only ever move quickly through that state, though I miss it sometimes...
coming out of Space is absolutely phenomenal. One of the best I've ever heard; Phil is just thumping right at the climax of the song. Amazing stuff.... listen again if you haven't in a while.
After the previous night, how could this be anything but a letdown?
Actually, they played very well; "My Brother Esau" is fantastic. I have a SBD of this show, and it is worth having, especially all you "80's" guys and gals who dig the Brent Era. The "Throwing Stones>Lovelight" 2nd set closer was also fantastic.
I was 22 when I saw this show. It was a police riot! The cops on horseback used the horses' bodies to protect the plate glass in the walls. Over 200 people were arrested. I think Jerry was even rousted out of a parked car (but that may have been another occasion). When will I see the like again? Never, never, never, never, never. (I saw John Prine and Arlo Guthrie around then in Richmond, on the last night of their joint tour. They played a long set together at the end.)
After the Epic show the first night, I went into this show a little skeptical, but I enjoyed myself almost as much. After a good first set, they opened with what would be my first Aiko into a really trippy Estimated. Then Jerry took over and the China doll then post space Dew really capped off the 2 nights in Richmond.
This show is definitely worth a listen, especially the 2nd set.

Pretty tough to follow the epic night before and the Halloween show, but this was a valiant attempt. Last show in Richmond for the Dead...
