- ★★★★★ · Context Matters · ProfIguanaDeadZoneDJwrhu.orgSun6-8pm · 2013
First things first, if you are 'judging' this performance you are absolutely obligated to recall the context: third of the three most significant performances since the four shows in 1975, the most notable of those being 8.13.75 (Great American Music Hall), although my personal favorite is 9.28.75 from Golden Gate Park. But I digress...My point is the trio of shows in December of 1986 that culminates in this 12.17.86 performance are historical, even by Grateful Dead standards.

This was my first show, I was a metal head and my friend dragged me to this show - I was "dead" set against it, we fought in the parking lot. He bought us tickets for 10 bucks a piece - I don't know why those folks didn't go in, but thank you for not. We came in at around The Other One - I was struck by how many people were there and that the crowd was not trying their best to kill each other to get to the stage (as they do a metal shows).
- ★★★★★ · Welcome Back, Jerry!!! · Lownote21 · 2009
This was night 3 of 3 after Jerry "died" the first time and the band didn't play for months. The parking lot buzz was that the 1st night they cried, forgot the words and many songs. Night 2 was less crying, forgotten words and notes but that night 3... this night they didn't cry, remembered words and didn't miss a note. Listen to Jerry play every note with perfect bend and cry... during Ship of Fools Jerry was our Captain, leaning into the "wind" and steering us all into a musical frenzy!
