This week we really hit the climax of this show from July 18th, 1972 - the Dark Star ->Comes a Time.. this is fabulous stuff, in my opinion.. and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I've read that Dylan was backstage at this show and that it was the first time he met Garcia - who knows ;) at any rate the group consciousness is clearly evident here and flows from the Star and Comes a Time into that rare 3rd set...

Thanks for your support my friends..
Just a depressing choice to commemorate a depressing occasion. IMO, shoulda picked a joyful time in Garcia's career to celebrate his creative brilliance -- instead of playing this show when he was all-but-already dead.
