Promised Land>Bertha>Greatest Story, Loser, Big River, Don't Ease Me In, Me and My Uncle, Dark Star>Truckin'>Morning Dew> Sugar Magnolia. "A Swell Dance Concert" billing: Grateful Dead; Sons of Champlin. An early Feelin' Groovy embedded in the China>Rider Bird Song, Playin' in the Band a fine close to the first. Closing four all you could ask for, the Star clocking in at 27:14. Several Archive reviews mention the heavy handed security at the show, Nassau delivering on its rep even in 1973. Praise DSO.

I recall at the time thinking how it was wild that Phil was 50 (first band member to hit the half century mark). And today he is 82 - amazing!

Confirmed. Skip sang it

Uh-oh! Rude said the "J" Word! I didn't think we could mention "JRAD" here? LoL!! I seen JRAD once, and would not mind seeing JRAD again. I think when they play a song, they play it as good as anyone. BUT; their pre-song jams just don't work for me. They will play a killer Bertha, Stranger, or what ever then they break into a 3 - 5 minute jam that just doesn't go anywhere for me and it is a buzzkill. Just my opinion...

that’s where JRAD comes in. If you want something crazy like Cumberland>big River>Cumberland>big River>Cumberland>big River>Cumberland> big River that’s what they do lol. On that note I get a JRAD show this weekend as a warm up for cincy>Richmond Dso. Should be a good way to get my feet under me before a lot of travel with winter rust built up.

Good show a bit of skip and Eaton drama good venue good people first time here show tonight !

Well it was pi day yesterday (3.14) so maybe it was a secret reference to a circular shape. also noticing they did around and around which was clearly in honor of the well-known holiday ⚡️

Would be a fun addition if that’s what it was.
