And when I factor in the Neville Brothers and Olatunji along with the Dead, I would definately say that this was the BEST CONCERT that I have EVER been to. (And I've been to 53 Dead shows so far, plus Kinks, 3 Yes (in all iterations), The Who, Joan Baez, Johnny Winter, 4 electric Jerry, 1 acoustic Jerry, Olatunji, and a lot more (no - no Kate Bush, unfortunately)).
