This is a good, solid show and and excellent sounding source. A great audience recording! The playin' jam gets good and WEIRD. I prefer this source over the others, but it's real close. Did I mention this is a great audience recording??

Subject: 6 song first set!!?

Do we rate the show or audio quality with stars? My inclination would be stars apply to the audio, written review can apply to either. Please correct me if I am wrong.

This show was a bummer, the absolute pits.

This being my first show, I thought it was awesome. Went with a bunch of people from CHHS and had a blast.

Subject: 1st show!

This was the first dead show I went to. We layed out our blankets earlier in the day and just hung out and tossed a frisbee. The City island Amphitheater was a great place to see a concert. I recently came across some 110 photos I took of the boys that night. When we left the island after the show , we crossed over the river on a pedestrian bridge. Everyone starting mooing, it was a memorable experience.

Subject: 1st show!!!!

Wow- unbelievable amazement that I was able to "go back" to my 1st show in Harrisburg, PA- 10 miles from my home. I was in high school and had listened to the Dead on records- I had been to many different concerts but the Grateful Dead was a VERY different deal. I Remember some guy with a camera running around taking pictures laughing histarically.. was there film in the camera???
Really did not understand the whole deal.....people were dancing...freaking out....

76shows later..I gained a DEEP respect for Jerry and Co. --now 2008 WOW.. my 1st show was ....very, VERY cool!!!!!....
in the strangest of places..... an island in the middle of nowhere (Harrisburg) Thanks to those who put this online!!!!!
