    Notes
  • Comment on deadlists entry for this show "Jerry plays electric guitar on Cumberland and New Speedway Boogie, while Bobby continues on acoustic guitar. Apparently David Nelson adds a second acoustic guitar to New Speedway and perhaps Cumberland"
  • Deadsources: May 6-7, 1970: MIT, Cambridge
  • 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
