This is a tough one for me. My favorite musician. I saw him more times than anyone else. First time in 1974, as an 18 year old budding Deadhead, in Santa Barbara, at an outdoor Wall of Sound show. And the last time, last spring at the Sphere in Las Vegas, as part of Dead and Company.

I was at that UCSB show, my first Dead show. Great book BTW, loved it!

Finished it today. My review, posted in a couple of music forum (esp Steve Hoffman), and Amazon:

{edit: turns out my review is too many characters for Bluesky. Go to Amazon to read it.}

Short version: I loved this book.

Dang bro, you need to tour down Texas way, Houston specifically. I'll even give you a place to stay, gratis. I'm up to "Tie-Dye Speakers", still loving it!

Cool! I'm two chapters in, loving it so far. {humble brag} I made six shows on your list: 4 in '74, 2 in '75.
