  • LIA comment to JGMF on "Canceled Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Gigs" "In summer 1972 the Dead were to go to Alaska to play two shows: a "Trust benefit" at the Palmer State Fairgrounds in Anchorage, June 30, and "a benefit for the Enep'ut Children's Center" at the Tanana Valley Fairgrounds in Fairbanks, July 2. The shows were promoted by Trust (an organization I know nothing about). For whatever reason, the Dead didn't go - perhaps these benefits were just too far removed to be worth the trip. (They wouldn't make it up to Alaska til June 1980.)
