Tricky!! I am duly impressed! Did anyone else catch this elusive detail? I didn't bother to check setlists, being so used to seeing the date formats as such. VERY stealth indeed! ========

So, was anyone there? Was it really good, or what? Was this a Bird Song/Help on the Way/Loose Lucy type show?

BTW, i've been hearing a lot of bad deadhead jokes recently. What did one deadhead say to the other where they ran out of pot? Man, this music sucks! What do you call a Deadhead without a VW bus? Homeless.
