Notes

Rescheduled from Aug. 2nd due to rain

deadsources: August 2-6, 1974: Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City & Civic Center, Philadelphia

lostlivedead: Roosevelt Stadium, Danforth Ave and NJ Rte 1 NJ440, Jersey City, NJ 1972-76 (Jersey City Story)

review: [negative] Werner 1974: The Dead have "clicked into a pattern of middle-of-the-road professionalism, as predictable and mediocre as a McDonald's hamburger" (p. 45). Wow - at least one member of the IFJGS staff begs to differ in re 8/6/74!
