Easter weekend
Attended this show and the next on Easter Sunday as a teen about to graduate from high school. I have good memories of the time there and the event-ness of it all. But I do remember all everyone talked about was how shot Garcia's voice was at these shows. It was near the end of the tour, so maybe his voice just gave out, or he was getting over a cold or something. His playing is actually very sharp, and I have to give him credit for not backing off his singing duties, as rough as the results were. For that factor alone, however, this doesn't make for the best listening.

Easter Candy!
34 years today I was still a teenager T'd up at the Spectrum on this awesome Easter Sunday! Jerry's voice was pretty well deteriorated by Philly and was sketch for a lot of the Spring 85 shows but his playing was on and the Boys were really having fun!! First set truly short and sweet, great groove, 1/2 Step/Bsong-Dancin'... Still a five, even w vocal breakdown in second set. Phil great on 1/2 Step!
Love me some D.Usborne. Surprised no ones reviewed this. Great times in the Spectrum
