Notes
  • JGMF: 'We Hardly Know Each Other'
  • Sue: no guarantee, but 80% of gross receipts over estimated expenses of $6,420, plus 80% of difference between estimated and actual expenses.
  • May have originally been scheduled for 8/5, per mention in Selvin 19810705.
  • Preview mentions personnel: Jerry Garcia, John Kahn, Melvin Seals, Daoud Shaw on drums, and Jimmy Warren on piano", one of the few times you'll see the latter two guys' names in print. At the show, someone asked Jerry, at the start of set II, to introduce the band, to which the big fella quipped "we hardly know each other." A commenter at JGMF says that an old bluesman with a guitar, harmonica and kick drum opened the show.
