Here's one memory (true) ~ we straggle out of Watkins Glen Park, sometime Sunday morning ~ with $1.27 to get home.
😂
Kids running, passed us and replied to my "Why?" (running) with:
"bro, we have Led Zep tix for tonight, at Mad Square Garden!"
🎶🎵🤔🎶🎵
That weekend's two MSG shows, became their movie:
"The Song Remains the Same"
(and the hotel safe theft of Led Zep's >$275K was never solved)
@zenmudprod great memory!
@HardisonParker
The ensemble 'glow' remains, but détails are hazy. We hitchhiked west from NJ, to approach from Pennsylvania (thought it an easier route than trying north in NY first).
Grateful Dead played a two hour soundcheck Friday night; then returned for a long morning set.
Both are on archive-dot-org 🤓
Look for "Grand Prix July 27 (then 28) Grateful Dead" and you can relive it.
