Notes
  • gratefulseconds: The Perfect Show, Berkeley, August 24, 1972
  • crytpdev comment to JGMF NRPS "showed up, with the show starting an hour earlier than the advertised time, for the last BCT show in 1972 (8/25)"
  • deadessays: The Proto-Solomon Jazz Jam
  • deadsources: August 1972: Berkeley Community Theater
  • cryptdev: Grateful Dead - August 1972
  • mention: Wasserman, John L. 1972. Lively Arts: New Band on the Move. San Francisco Sunday Examiner & Chronicle Datebook, September 3, 1972, p. unk, I believe it was usually around the 25-30 range. "The Grateful Dead drew a capacity 14,400 to four concerts recently at Berkeley Community Theater but, according to some reports, were not as together as they have been known to be on occasion. Stanley Owsley or Owsley Stanley, not former manufacturer of LSD, is now out of the slammer and handled the Dead's sound."
