My First Dead Show: 6/24/85 Cincinnati, Ohio Riverbend Music Center

 

This week on Grateful Dead & Friends, guest host Leigh Anne revisits her first Dead show:  6/24/85 Cincinnati, Ohio, Riverbend Music Center

My first show turned out to be a great show, later released on the Dave's Picks 30 Trips Around the Sun 1965-1995 box set.

We'll hear highlights from the spirited first set, and most of the electrifying 2nd set (assisted by a perfectly timed lightning bolt).

We'll end with some 2nd set selections from another great show from the Summer of 1985:  Berkeley Greek Theater, 6/15/85

Enjoy!
