- ★★★★★ · Downtown Birmingham · LukeyCambridge · 2013
This was the Dead's first trip to Birmingham and my first Dead concert. Opening with "Promised Land" seemed sweet enough, but then they got to "and the 'hound broked down and left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham," and the place went nuts. You can hear the surge in the cut, but it was really dramatic live. A great little rock 'n roll moment. By the way, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, NPR posted a list of songs of the Civil Righrts Movement.

This was a cool show. Boutwell was a small auditorium and the concerts used to cost $3.00! I was second row center for this one, we had a blast and the guys were smokin'.
