Notes

gratefulseconds: New York Got The Ways And Means: From Betty Batch #2, First Three Nights At the Academy, March 1972

archive thread: Guide To The Feelin' Groovy Jam

deadessays: 3/26/72 Academy of Music "New Yorkers were eager to see them again, even though they’d played a four-day run at the Felt Forum in December ’71, just three months before. One paper remarked: “Seven concerts in one week at the Academy of Music, every one of them sold out within hours, more by ESP than advertising… The week’s series will help finance the Dead’s traveling expenses for a two-month, seven-country tour of Europe beginning Saturday.” (NY Daily News, 3/30/72)"
