You need the Sir Mick source on IA as some of the shows seem to be the night before. Muddy sound but a good version of the few times this song was pla

Doin' That Rag

Dream Bowl

A 5star+ show. I think one of the very best of 1969.
Deal

Uptown Theater

they kinda get out of step during the first solo, Jerry flubs the lyrics(it's Deal for chrissakes) 22 April 78 or March 1981 streets better for post 76 Deals.
Truckin'
Nov. 5, 1977
Community War Memorial Auditorium

is this the correct date? IA doesn't show Truckin' being played this night.

Berkeley Community Theatre

Just a wee note-in light of the solution to the Betty Tapes saga and Dave and the gang now having them in the vaults- I understand that these Berkley shows are among the haul. Maybe a nice box set for next year?
