Love the shakedown, Brent was great at doing what he does best, tickling the ivories. Great Bird Song as well.
Radbilly, about your confused during drums/space comment just remember "if you get confused listen to the music play" we have all been there before.
Over 15 years after my third show I grabbed the chance to extend a work trip to NYC with a flight to Philly and a Dead show. The Spectrum was a huge venue but with a surprisingly great sound. Of course the band were a very different beast to the one I'd seen last in 1974. There were perhaps fewer sparks flying but they still rolled forward with a certain style and grace that was and is unique. I really wanted to hear Terrapin Station and I got my wish. [Looking now at setlists from around this time I can see that I struck lucky] Jerry played some really searing guitar leads at time. It was definitely worth the 4am wake up call to go back to London.

My cousin took me to this show. I guess you could say The bus came by and I got on ,thats when it all began. I knew four songs. Was very confused during Drums/Space, had no clue
Had a really good time in parking lot.Was totally amazed by everything. After that I worked for tickets and had A real good time! : )
