I think I was there for 20th, 21st? Is that right, was there a day in between, and 2 add-on shows?

Dig this show. Very shweet. 

Pretty certain I went to a couple of these,  but not Reuben & Cerise night.  I should locate the old ticket Stubs.

I was there. Fun times at the Duncan family KOA after hours too

That was a good show for the post-Brent era.  I recall being up in the Philzone for the R & C.  At first, I thought it was Believe It Or Not.

I drove down to that show just to buy some doses as I was leaving to India in a few days. Didn't score as was paranoid about the undercover scene then. Did meet a Japanese hippy at my hotel in Calcutta who gave me a hit he got in Goa. He lived in San Rafael for a bit studying to play Indian instruments. Said he lived by playing on the streets of Europe playing his Indian instruments. Could make $200 a day busking. Ran into him like a month later in Pokhara, Nepal. He gave me his address in Tokyo but never contacted him.

 

I remember the weather at that show being a beautiful sunny day. Sorry I missed those breakouts. 

nice doc, great show memory and encounter
