This is the first time I've ever got to hear the soundboard of the first set. I was at the show on the floor with my first wife and a couple of friends. It was pretty crazy. That minute and a half of dead(no pun intended) air after FoTD was clearly them discussing the crowd surging forward. It was hot, we were packed in like sardines and some guy pissed on the one of the mats covering the field right in front of us. Yet that first set is etched in my mind as the best set I got to see in my short 25 show stint.
The second set? Well, it was all too much for my wife, who had to bail out at the set break before totally freaking out and naturally my first obligation was to make sure she was alright. We knew we wouldn't get back down to that spot on the floor, roughly 75-100 feet from the stage so I just tried to find a place where she would not feel claustrophobic. However, it felt like a mass of humanity everywhere we turned. I eventually let her make the call and we left. It was the right call, of course.
Listening back on this 26 years to the day later and it's a microcosm of my entire Dead experience. Some ups, some downs and some incredible music. Jerry and Bob were in peak form with both seemingly trying to one up the other. That first set ends in a powerful rendition of Let it Grow, but I think they both battled to a draw. It was the most in sync I ever saw the two of them.
Thanks for posting.
