  • OAITW: September 1-2, 1973, Blue Grass Park, Camp Springs (?), North Carolina

    This is why I pick up old copies of Muleskinner News and such whenever I can. It appears based on the image below that Old and in the Way played the “9th Labor Day Weekend Original Blue Grass Music Festival” in Camp Springs (?), North Carolina on September 1-2, 1973. The only thing standing in…

  • JGMS: the show known variously as 1972-06-30, 1972-09-01, 1971-09-01

    So for a long time I have been wanting to lay down a marker regarding the dating of the wonderful Garcia/Saunders show that circulates variously as June 30, 1972, September 1, 1972, and (less commonly nowadays), September 1, 1971. I’ll concentrate on the former two dates –I have nothing to say about the ’71 possibility–…

  • NRPS: June 12-13, 1971, Keystone Korner, San Francisco, CA

    So, I discovered this ad for New Riders of the Purple Sage at Keystone Korner on June 12-13, 1971 when going through the Berkeley Barb last summer … the old fashioned way … microfilm. Makes my eyes dry up just thinking about it. All well and good. I assume Jerry was there.and have updated my…

This info based on most complete circulating copies. Key is below. Jerry Garcia and Merl…

  • JGMS: Live at Keystone, vol. 1 datings

    Seeing a new torrent for 1973-07-10 at Lossless Legs reminds me that deaddisc.com has not included the information on dates from which the different performances derive. So I will post them. Here’s volume one (CD release). Live at the Keystone, Volume 1 Merl Saunders / Jerry Garcia / John Kahn / Bill Vitt Initial release…

  • JGMS, August 24, 1974, venue confusion

    August 1974 is one of Jerry’s greatest months. Between the killer GD shows at the star of the month and all of the incredible Garcia/Saunders shows (8/31/74 is right at the top of my desert island list), it really is incredible. But I am confused about a few of the details from this month. I’ll…

  • JGMS: Bo Jangle’s, SF, February 11, 1972

    edited, corrected Lost Live Dead and related have inspired me. Sorry to steal your schtick! I don’t get into depth (nor turn a phrase) the way LLD does, but it sure is fun, anyway. So the SF Chronicle is almost certainly loaded with stuff of interest. Unfortunately, unless I am missing something it does not…

  • Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders, Ash Grove, May 1973

    There has been a lot of confusion over the years about the Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders shows played at the Ash Grove (8162 Melrose Avenue, Santa Monica, CA) in May of 1973. The Jerry Site has listed a pair of shows (early/late) on 5/23 and a pair of shows (early/late) on 5/30. I believe…
