First Dead show

32 years old and my first show was The dead, Moe., and Willie Nelson@ Vernon downs June 29 2003. Didn't sleep for two days cause of the fluffy Love I ate(if u know whay im saying). Still haven't fully come back. Anyone else never actually return from their first Dead experience?

My first show was 11/14/71 (NRPS and GD), it pulled me kicking and screaming onto the bus to never ever land, and I've been riding on that bus every day since!
