My best friend and I had seen the Dead a couple of times before, but indoors, so we were pretty stoked for an outdoor show. The night started weird and got weirder. We had gotten, er, shall we say, a sensory enhancing substance from a friend who did not tell us that the black plastic pyramid was just a vehicle for the stuff, not PART of it (we were so clueless).

- ★★★★ · Great setlist, hidden gem? · tjack · 2005
This is a great mellow show and a super crisp audience recording. There is some intrusive crowd noise, but it is compensated for by the clean wide spectrum sound, maybe something to do with the high mountain air? Phil is on throughout this show from the tuning at the beginning to the Zeppelin riff leading into China Cat. The Big Boss Man opener was a surprise, and Jerry lets it rip during Watchtower. The Loser and Stella blue prove Jerry is the man!

From a strictly playing perspective, this show is solid—plently long, plenty interesting, nothing spectacular. But being one of those persons who attended this show, listening to it brings back indescribably pleasurable memories. Sitting on that mountain-side on a beautiful late-summer afternoon, watching the horse-backed fuzz running down Heads who'd hiked up and around the (fenceless?) backside of the mountain, foregoing the 10- or 15-minute roundtrip to the men's room for the 3-minute…
