39 years ago-What a night. I remember riding The LIRR to The Garden knowing they were going to play St. Stephen having been to Charlotte when they were so close in between Not Fade & Sugar Magnolia but declined to pull the trigger. Was not as bad as Red Rocks 82 tease though that was just mean.

I was in Rochester, gritting my teeth that I could only go to the (somewhat average) Syracuse show.
Missing NY shows like Lake Placid, Binghamton and MSG while actually living in NY sucked.

Went to the 12th. Wasn't
Went to the 12th. Wasn't gonna miss a show until they played St Stephen again. Good show. Encore first Revolution with Phil stepping the mic for the first time.
Hartford first night: one of the greats, then 10-15. Not a long pursuit, but a very high returns.
Long Live The Grateful Dead.

I was at Hartford too but not MSG. Considering my run was 79 to 95 catching Stephen was an incredible stroke of luck. Westies got fucked on that one.
One of the best things of the post Jerry years was hearing all the songs that we never got to hear.

^ 100% true and he also sang on Throwing Stones sharing Bobby's mike at The Boston Gardens and I think Portland Maine too. I think he did that a few shows on the tour.
I always thought that too a big deal was made for that US Blues. Now four later Thom Thumb Blues blew me away.
