First show after the death of Keith Godchaux. Maybe 3,000 in a small outdoor shed close by the river. An amazing thunderstorm blew up for the second set, It poured rain from the beginning of He's Gone till Space... everyone except for the first 10 rows or so got soaked! Kudos to the intrepid taper that provided this gem! He's Gone seemed a tribute an absent friend, as the end really gets deep!

This is quite the show from a rather uncirculated year, 1980. Hot, hot, hot! Kick @$$ versions of T.L.E.O., Tennessee Jed, Althea, Minglewood, and Deal! A wildly energetic first set leads into a way trippy second! Brent is playing HARD on his modified Fender Rhodes keyboard and tapping out that beautiful "toy piano" sound that some hate, but I LOVE!
- ★★★★★ · Mississippi River Madness · thebone · 2009
This is a rocking, classic early 80's show. Jerry is cookin' and the band sounds great. Second set is very strong, esp. pre-drums. Great China>Rider, Estimated and He's Gone. Love the unusual event/venue--wish I could have been there I's sure it was off the chain!!
