  this is one of my favorite september '72 shows, along with 9/21,(also now a d***'s pick). actually i'd go as far as to say its one of my favorite shows ever. ok, so i've been pretty obsessed with bird song lately, and i just can't get enough of this one sometimes. besides veneta, (and possibly 6/22/73), this is the best one ever, imho. yah, i know, there's some great ones in the 80's and 3/29/90 w/ bradford marsalis is a lot of people's favorite, but i really favor these '72/'73 versions.

  after roosevelt stadium, i had to get 6 tickets for me and my friends. i decided to go to the theatre the friday before they were supposed to go on sale, which was to be that monday. when i got to the box office, the woman there asked me what i was doing. i said "i'm waiting on line for tickets to see the grateful dead." she didn't know what to do!

  Monster. Of course there's the Dark Star->Cumberland, as described here by Arthur Dent (DeadBase XI): "A wonderful Dark Star, long as is the 1972 tradition... features solid tours through the theme, theme/jam, jam, spacey jam and space phases in a nice even progression. It is beautifully balanced with some blistering guitar work from Jerry during the Jam segment.
