    Notes
  • We might assume that Bob Mathews is still playing bass, as he was at Mandrake's just a few days before.

  • Lostlivedead: NRPS Tour Itinerary October 1969 (Grateful Dead/Jerry Garcia Oct 69 Tour Itinerary Updated): "The Student Union Ballroom had only opened on October 13, 1969. On the very first Friday that the ballroom was open October 17, 1969, the new, unknown New Riders Of The Purple Sage played there and broke in the room. Whether the Student Union Ballroom was the larger (Ron Barrett) or smaller (Loma Prieta) is moot, at this point. The raw New Riders, with the cutting-edge fusion band Fourth Way on the bill as well, would have been memorable indeed."
