I used to love 'bama openers. I think the Dead may have liked Maine just a bit.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

The Spectrum

It is a bring the house down closing version of NFA>GDTRFB >NFA.
Dark Star

Robert F. Kennedy Stadium

The moments before Foolish becomes Dark Star are magic for sure. 7+ minutes before the 1st verse allowed things to sink in that night.
Dark Star

Seminole Indian Village

Exactly, he is full of ideas here, with several jams unique to this one version. One of the best of '69, no doubt.
Dark Star

Dream Bowl

Love the mountains and love Jerry's guitar sound in '69.
Standing On The Moon
