Notes
  • JGMF: The Fat Man is Back
  • Rather remarkably, the WV poster has the tagline "The Fat Man Is Back". Jerry must have been in a sporting mood about it, I guess.
  • ad: Good Times, February 19, 1987, p. 21
  • listing: Good Times, February 19, 1987, p. 30
  • review: [positive] Robson 1987: "Aging, grandfatherly" Garcia was "happy, smiling" and making lots of eye contact with band and audience alike.
