    Notes
  • Setlist may be incomplete. 2nd electric set may have followed.
  • Previously a fragment of this show has circulated mislabeled as St. Louis 5/19/70.
  • JGMF: An Evening With the Gratetul Dead. This show was not heavily attended, but from all known credible first hand accounts, the format of this show was different from the other "An Evening With The Grateful Dead" shows. The format for this show appears to be NRPS > Acoustic Dead > Electric Dead. There's some debate about whether or not this is the format, and if so, why it differs from the other AEWGD shows.
  • Lostlivedead: The Grateful Dead in Upstate and Central New York 1969-79 ('Til Your Night Job Pays)
  • Most of these shows were billed as "An Evening With The Grateful Dead". The standard architecture was Acoustic GD, then New Riders, then Electric GD (sometimes two sets). For more, see JGMF, An Evening With the Gratetul Dead
