Notes
  • Rex Foundation Benefit
  • Jerry identified this as "a good night" (Peters 1989, 27). It was, indeed.
  • As per Deadbase, the original dates for the Greek 89 run were to be 8/18 - 8/20, "but the UC administration did not want the Dead playing on orientation day. They finally relented and allowed the shows to be moved up a day to the 17th, 18th and 19th."
