Notes
  • The date of the music that comprises the set list here is speculation. As per deadessays.com The 1966 Mystery Reels (Guest Post), the reel was mislabeled "possibly 2/12/66". It may also be part of the 7/30 second set. I've associated shnid 81254 with this date until proven otherwise.
  • timescolonist.com has posted an excerpt from Jerry Kruz's The Afterthought: West Coast Rock Posters and Recollections from the 60s with details from this GD Vancouver trip, see Our History: A trip back to the Dead in Vancouver
  • boppin.com: "Grateful Dead" by Brian Nation, date of this account uncertain: "The entire Grateful Dead stayed in my room. My room was half the basement in the house at 1937 West 3rd Avenue between Maple and Cypress."
