The 18th is Mickey’s last night for a while, plus the never-to-be-repeated Dark Star>Wharf Rat>Beautiful Jam; the 19th is immortalized (or something) on Three From The Vault; the 21st is the infamous “Tapir Section” performance. 2/24/71 from the Cap gets very little attention next to its brothers in choogle.
Don’t sleep on this show, though. We got:
- An acceptable Cumberland!
- A sleepy but true Bird Song!
- An itsy-bitsy Playing!
- King Bee, motherfucker!
- And more songs by the Grateful Dead!
What did I tell you about sleeping? Go, listen, enjoy, noodle dance.

Noodle dancing on a rainy Sunday morning on crumbly Pop Tarts.
Pretty poppin’ Cumberland. Billy on lead cymbals.
And the old timey Minglewood.
Pigpen!
Pigpen sells a woman from the stage.
It was a different time. Don’t tell Ronan Farrow, please.
