Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 11, 1981
Coliseum

Great recommend. This is fantastic. ‘81 is an interesting year. Aren’t they all? But ‘81 has a good deal of late ‘70s sound and influence as well as a whole lotta “what’s to come”. It’s a transitional year. Anyone not already aware: tomorrow is Jerry Day. It’s live streaming and free. Last year was amazing. Loads of bands. Jerry’s Middle Finger did a killer Who Was John last year. Starts 2:45 pm ET. Event by Jerry Day Jerry Garcia Amphitheater Duration: 6 hr 15 min Public · Anyone on or off Facebook
