Can't say...there were a bunch that were great because of the people I was with that made them more memorable. September 1990 NYC MSG run was excellent.

Pretty sure HeadyBrosevelt was born during one of their shows at the Greek Theater. Rev delivered him.

I heard by age 5 he was selling gooballs at Deer Creek. Dude is fam as they come, ask him.

Jackson, MS. December 19, 1978. My stoner buddy slept soundly through the whole thing. Straight-arrow me thoroughly enjoyed it.

St Louis, 1982.

They weren't my cup of tea. A colleague convinced me to go. The scene was interesting. The show was okay. Glad I went.

Big fan, are ya? Just kidding. Nope, never did, and even though I was never a huge fan it's one of those bucket list items that can never be checked off.

Atlanta in 94 and 95
Charlotte 95
That’s all I got
I know these aren’t regarded as great dead shows but I enjoyed the hell out of them
Remember the birdsong in 94 ATL on third night as one of my top live music experiences
