View NotesNotes:
- Tape pauses & flips; cross faded.
- Second & final (I'm A) Roadrunner
- A local & a bottle prevented an encore.
- I was just behind the stage, Jerry's side when, during Comes a Time I heard a loud crack.  I remember this very well cause my touring parter & everyones favorite jokester looked at me & said my name in a way that implicated me with a question mark.  I never saw the incident but I heard it.  What I did watch was a pissed off Kreutzman exit the stage.  He prowled behind the stage looking up into the seats for the perpetrator.  He returned to his "busted kit" midway through Truckin'.  The band did their best to keep it together, but there was no way they were gonna come back out, so they swung into JGB & that was all she wrote.

There is a grinding sound from the PA, thought to be Weir's rig distorting, throughout this entire spring tour. It is present only when they are playing, not during breaks.
I listened to several FOB audience sources from this tour and they all have this "noise".

This Executive Crew AKG c422 recording is dedicated to Kenny Davis RIP

There is a grinding sound from the PA, thought to be Weir's rig distorting, throughout this entire spring tour. It is present only when they are playing, not during breaks.
I listened to several FOB audience sources from this tour and they all have this "noise".

This Executive Crew AKG c422 recording is dedicated to Kenny Davis RIP
