Oh my stars and garters. Did all of you bring your sexy to the same show?
“Is Keith in the picture?”
No.
“Then, yes.”
This might be the best-looking the Grateful Dead has ever been.
“Did you take my potato salad into account?”
I did, Bobby, yes.
…
Phil, are those Geiger counters?
“Yes. It’s a rock concert.”
Right.
Wait, is Phil sporting a pseudo-mullet?
That is a shag cut, young lady. All the rock stars had them.
I’m learning better here on this website than I ever did in school.
I find it amazing how insanely hideous most rock stars were and they still managed to get laid all the time. (Yeah, I know; money and fame and shit, but still.) Phil’s cute tho.

Jesus, the Dead look like the Chippendale Dancers next to those mutants.

I see they retained Precarious Lee’s services for the show as well
Tix to the Glen show were $10. That’s $55.24 in 2015 dollars (but included camping and really disgusting porta potties)

PS: Note how the promoters ( Shelly Finkel and Jim Koplik ) put their names at the top of the poster like they think they are the main attraction. We had a nickname for those guys, Jim Copout and Sleazy Finkel. hahaha
Bill Graham wannabes!
August, you lucky summer beach.
spencer, They don’t just hand out Deadhead merit badges ya know. You gotta earn it with sweat and roach burns. hahahah.
As many times as i saw them, I would gladly trade a few84-93experiences for a 73 merit badge
Haha. Yeah I got lucky. Also saw the ’73 RFK show. Best summer ever for me. But the archives are full of great 80s/90s shows so no need for ‘show envy’. 😉
I was at rfk 89, 90,91. Good times
Now I have show envy. Your RFK list is bigger than mine. hahaha
Bringin the sexy here…
