Slept outside the stadium the night before the show with friends. The day of the show was very hot and the sun was really strong. The Brothers were amazing and by the time the Dead came on, everyone was ready for take off. Donna Jean wore a bright green dress and floated above it all. People were enjoying everything, baking in the heat. Wonderful.
I went solo with a pocket full of tickets and a smile on my face, seems the family was to busy to go to another show, who would have guessed it would have been my last :(

I promised my older son, who was ten at the time, that I would take him to see the Dead... I got the tickets and we were all set to go... My brother came down from Long Island, and I took him instead of my son... I told him, he would get to go to the next one... It was never to be... Fortunately, my son forgave me... I still regret that I was not able to share the experience with him... This spring... I am going to see the Dead with my younger son at Charlottesville, Va... At least I get to keep my promise to him...

Filled 1971 Red Toyota Station Wagon with friends and supplies necessary for trip. Being Southern, could not miss another DEAD/ALLMANS EVENT. Certainly not disappointed.

I brought a buddy of mine to this show and it was his first and only. When the boys kicked into Casey Jones he could not understand why the crowd went wild.
