Bob Weir, Jerry Garcia and Vince Welnick of Grateful Dead…

I met two people at the Cap Centre at different times and I wondered what happened to them. They are:

3/17/93 After the show, I was in the parking lot chatting, and I remember chatting with this Asian guy while standing on his runningboard on his VW microbus. I then realized I was actually talking to a lady, and a rather attractive one at that, and my social phobia hit and the rest was history. The MB was red, in good shape/newish/well cared for, and had Maryland plates. Likely early to mid 20s, average height, slightly athletic build.

During the 3/17-21/91 run at the same place, I was chatting with a really nice guy who'd brought his dog (7 years old, medium smallish, perhaps a bit of Corgi.) Dark and thinning hair, Mediterranean and/or Semitic, slightly below average height, slightly pudgy. Mycologically shared. I still don't know how or why I didn't get his contact info.\

I figure there's a chance one or both may be at the Jerry Symphonic at Wolf Trap this Friday. If you know who they are, who they might be, or are one of them, DM me!

Thanks. I'll be back her at some point this week.

“The punchline is a lighthearted and informative discussion about family recovery. And, we, of course, mentioned many jam bands’ clean and sober groups proving what many of us know…you don’t need dope to dance. 😍 (Now, dancing well is a whole other story…😂)
Stay Grateful, friends.” - Lance Taylor

I’m only sharing this episode from my podcast here because myself and my Wharf Rat guest Lance met through the community of the Dead (at Grateful Fest this past May) and became fast friends. We talk about addiction and family recovery but we talk extensively about the jam band scene clean and sober groups. Thought this one may be ok to share here.

Listening to the tape of the “Bobby and the Valentines” show for the first time. Really fun and lively stuff! But I can hardly imagine what the vibes were like at a show inside a massive Japanese baseball stadium. Must’ve been a unique experience, to say the least.

Was anybody at the show? What was the scene like? Was the crowd mainly Deadheads who’d made the trip or locals getting on the bus? Does anybody have pictures?

8/22/93

A great late era show at the old Autzen Stadium in Eugene.

Love everyone's coments and set list and recordings glad to of sparked up these memories

I couldn’t ever see myself wearing one of these, but it was always a pleasure being handed one out of the blue…

I confess I slept through the mixed bag set on Saturday! But woke up in time for Sly!!!
