Outrageous service fee on that ticket stub.. 

The nerve of them MFers!

looks like a hoot. wonder what Phil was doing while Barry played. Did Barry play Phil's rig or did he have his own onstage?

Wowza! That 2nd set closer would make me want to come back for sure  .....

 

I got the lightning show in the skylights at Rutgers 1981 as my ticket to the bus

 

That shoe was my fourth, and  my wife's and my first GD show date. First and last time I left the tix on the bureau and had to go back and get 'em. We left Boston area at 6 am so had plenty of time - even went surfing in RI on the way. Also got my first GD tee shirt at that show - a salmon colored one with a black outline of Garcia playing an acoustic.

Other notable events there - got to toke on a three-foot reefer that made its appearance near us, and saw a bunch of naked folks enjoying the music - it was a hot day.
