- ★★★★★ · Only One Word That Describes It For Me: AWESOME ! · poghmahone · 2015
The first time I heard of the Grateful Dead was way back in 1972 when Bobby Lawrence turned me onto "Working Man's Blues," back in Baldwin, NY; but this, however, was my first show and there's really only one word that describes it for me and that was AWESOME! I listened and danced to the music before the mushrooms kicked into high gear. I vaguely remember that The Charlie Daniel's Band was just finishing it's set when we moved through the crowd which was aglow with the magic of the Dead.

First concert without Keith and Donna. I drove up from San Diego with about 10 of my friends from college (UCSD) to see the show. rove all night. It was a killer show and great set list.....played a lot of my favorites. Of course, a huge party......had to sell product in the parking lot after the show for gas money to get home. Surprised we had product left. In response to some others, I liked the Dead any day in any year. My first show was in Golden Gate Park for free in the early 70's.

Today is the 39th year, Sunday anniversary at Spartan Stadium This was one of those earthquake weather concerts days. You know the one, it feels like a heavy pressure on the head and face like anything could happen. Just ready to crack open the world of time and space and swallow you up whichever way, then just in time cutting your left leg loose and setting you free.
