Dead Show/podcast for 2/20/26

Today we head back to February 1982 and the Pauley Pavilion at UCLA for a fine‑sounding tape of a very tasty Grateful Dead set.

They come out of the gate with a wonderful Shakedown; Brent and Phil are all over this one, and it makes for a perfect opener.

A gritty New Minglewood Blues follows, with Bobby leaning into the slide work here and again later on Little Red Rooster.

Jerry is in strong voice on Friend of the Devil and a spacious Bird Song, and the set wraps up in unusual fashion with Bertha sliding straight into Man Smart (Woman Smarter) as a first‑set closer.
