1. Madison, Wisconsin circa 1978, at what was then known as the Dane County Coliseum. Terrific venue...

... for hockey. Not so much for The Dead.

[Viking12]

4. Is that the Alliance Energy Center now?

I saw 'Further' there in Fall 2011. It was actually a nice venue for the show. Security was really lax too, so that was fun.

[Scuba]

5. That's it. At the time it had a tin domed roof, which was something short of "acoustically ideal".

2. Denver. December 1, 1994

It was nice 3 day run.

I had tickets for most of the Fall '95 tour that was cancelled when Jerry died.

3. I don't remember

6. Last year, it was

Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Mama Cass Elliot, Glenn Miller, John Bonham, George Harrison, and many other dead artists.

It was OK until they actually had to play instruments or get up and sing.

Unfortunately, their bones dropped all over the stage and the show couldn't go on.

7. You'll be here all week? Don't forget to tip your waitress.

10. Their second-to-last one.

My girlfriend flipped out about some shit and made us leave pretty early on. I was - and still am - pissed.

12. Somewhere around 1974 -- my ONLY Dead show... in Munich, Germany --

.

... in the indoor bicycle track at their Olympic stadium.
.
Did the wrong drugs (hash and red wine) and fell asleep during the first space jam.
.
.
Met Jerry in a face-to-face alone right before the show and didn't realize it was him
until I saw him onstage.
.
Our encounter was brief, but GREAT!!!

23. We were there!

I think we got pulled over by Chicago's finest either before the show, and one of my passengers had some...recreational substances confiscated. Good thing they didn't look in the trunk.

15. I dont remeber the date. I saw a couple shows in Indiana.

One in Bloomington and one in Indy. Donna and Keith were in the band at the time. I think "Blues for Allah" was the recent album.

[DFW]

16. One only: Fillmore East, NYC, in early 1970.

My brother in law used to be a roadie who toured with them.

He saw a few more shows than I did!

17. May, '87

Laguna Seca, CA. With Ry Cooder and Bruce Hornsby and the Range.

18. Cap Center outside DC 1987

I had seen them 26 times before, mostly in NYC, upstate NY, and NJ. I hated DC as soon as I moved there in 86 because of my then fiance. At the now departed Cap Center, I was disturbed by the sight of kids who were doing nothing getting hassled by Prince George's county police on horseback. One female cop was especially belligerent in using her horse to hassle kids who were simply sitting on the cement outside the doors to the place. Not a great show for my last time seeing them.

19. Never went to a show but I always hung out down there.

I'm not a fan of their music at all but I did love hanging at the camps. Kind bud, drum circles, liquid acid and free hugs (and more) from pretty hippy chicks. There was an ugly side to it sometimes but I always had a great time there. My buddy and I were ready to run away with them until we came to our senses.

Good stuff.

20. 10/13/94 MSG.

Jerry was on fire that night.

8th row center.

21. October 1994 at Madison Square Garden NYC

Not as good as other shows I have been to, but memorable because it was the last one I went to.

25. Nov.3, 1991, Golden Gate Park, Bill Graham memorial

When I was around 10(circa 1967) my parents and I happened to be visiting friends in the Haight when the dead played on the street. that was the first Dead show I saw.

27. I don't remember...

for very good reason. But I think I must have had a good time, even though it took us a while to find the car.
