This is not a tape/CD request, because I know to use the Resources for Traders site for that.
Ref: BAND Grateful Dead VENUE Masonic Temple CITY Portland STATE OR DATE 07/18/67 I don't know about all this stuff, but I WAS at this show and here is what I can share with you. It cost $2.50 to get in..I remember, cause that was HALF of all the money I had at the time. I don't recall ANY of the 'opening' acts, although I MAY have seen them. Mickey Hart was NOT with them. Jerry Garcia was playing a black Les Paul, as I recall (I'm a guitarist, so I remember things like that). I don't remember the songs all that much ( confirm a big 10-4 on Viola Lee Blues and Morning Dew) but I do recall that they were not extremely loud and they seemed to play the songs with more pep than in following years. There was NOT a huge turn out. I'm thinking probably 400 people TOPS. As I recall, advertising (for me) was word of mouth. Your's is the ONLY reference to this appearance that I have ever seen. I've never spoken with anyone since who recall this show except my friend who was there with me. Frankly, the Dead had been built up in the media even then to a point where I was actually a bit let down when I finally saw them. We were expecting something REALLY HEAVY. It was all pretty ricky ticky and light.
