    Maybe why these shows were off. Although I enjoyed them
    I think these are the shows right after Bobby's dog Otis passed away. I know in his sisters book about conversations with Jerry in the after life she refers to Otis dieing and the band playing somewhere that bobby couldn't even sing a note. As I recall the word on the scene at these shows were that he had passed on sometime between the new years shows and these 3 here. After listening to these I hear him singing and having gone to all before this and all; after he sang at them all. I do NOT mean to sound as if I know more only going by what I wrote in my little book of shows I use to keep back then. I would always write the set list and anything I thought that stuck out on any given night. I though they were ok shows.I fell in the bleachers this night here cracking a rib and spending time with the Haight Ashbury clinic crew until Black muddy river it being knew I wanted to be in the crowd listening more then caring about my own health and well being. That seemed to be a common theme for me till I got sober in fall of 89

    And the band keeps playing on
    I was on the road to ventura when at a gas station in half moon bay the word came that the shows were cancelled because Jerry was really sick. It was a mind freak but we all sent out healing thoughts and a few months later the bus resumed. The shows were more about emotion and love than about the performance. I was living in the bay area in 86 so I saw the next bunch of shows as the band got ready to go back out on the road in the spring of 87. It was a time of healing love and familly.

    Not a great show...
    After the show as Jerry was walking down the stairs of the stage someone yelled out, "Great show Jerry!" To which Jerry yelled back, "It Sucked, man!" A few minutes later in the band hospitality cubby Jerry apologized the other band members for his playing. Personally I thought that Jerry and Bobby were having a contest to see who could fuck up a song worse... Thank you, and Stay In Touch!
