Replying to @InstituteJerry
This is a pretty neat mini-doc telling the story of the 11/23/72 show. It seems to be excerpted or adapted from the film Sir Doug & The Genuine Texas Cosmic Groove: youtube.com/watch?v=QbMJXVEo…

Just added images to one of my all-time favorite horrible shows, GD 5/16/69 at my alma mater, Campolindo High School. jerrybase.com/events/1969051… I think Lenny came onboard like this day, or real close to it. Maybe they should have paid attention to the omens.

Before Jerrybase, more than decade before Deadbase, in 1980 the Grateful Dead had a computerized (mainframe?) database of Song Concert Frequency work in progress Anyone know/written about this ? – at South Pasadena, CA

The "Lonely Avenue" from 8/10/74 may be the Garcia-Saunders band's finest performance. It has been labeled as 8/9 *shiver*, but I am about 99.9% sure it's 8/10. A fucking MASTERPIECE. Go to 1:45:49 here and spend 27 minutes with deep genius --> tinyurl.com/ycysj4eu

SF's '69 Wild West Rock Festival was cxld before disaster ensued. The bands were all available, so they played Family Dog and Fillmore West on the weekend of Aug 22-24 '69. Completely forgotten, except by me rockarchaeology101.blogspot.…

Oh my goodness, the Mission in the Rain from the 7/26/80 early show down the Shore is pretty fantastic. Huge dynamic range. Big guitar, a la 1977-1978. Audio is linked from here -> gdsets.com/garcia.htm

I am so stoked that Jerrybase so cleanly presents the data on GD and JG cancellations. This stuff is part of the history, too! jerrybase.com/events/all_can…

If you ever saw Jerry play in a place that isn't documented at Jerrybase, please let me know. I am keeping track of such things (jgmf.blogspot.com/2021/11/ve…). Just came across reasonably reliable claims that he played twice at the Stepping Stone in Willits, CA.

I had the crazy profound joy of going through Mark Braunstein's ledgers and calendars and other stuff from the Inn of the Beginning some years back. Found some amazing stuff, like this previously unknown stealth Jerry gig 6/1/75 w Aunt Monk!
