I was at this show! I was at this show! Awesome! Why does Bobby's hair, flying in the furnace-hot breeze, with the hedonism of Las Vegas, and the music in the desert, add up to freedom in my head?
was at this show too man was it fukn hot I got a tik in the lot 4 25 bucks, was their in 95 too and after taking what I was told was micro dot I was passed out on the floor of sam boyd thru the whole 2nd set.

I was near the front row at this show with my girlfriend on my shoulders, during knocking on heaven door Jerry knocked at us. Is any footage of that song out there?
@gillenpantera Without looking at the reference material - I believe that they averaged about 70-90 nights a year approx. 20 shows for spring/summer/fall tours plus a handful of extra shows in the bay area (Chinese New Year's, etc.), plus a few extra shows here and there (hear and there?). There were a few early years in which they played substantially more - 1970-71 they might have played 150+ shows.
this was when DMB opened for them. it was a DAY show. so effing hot, but Im glad...the heat burned the memories into my brain and nothing left to do but SMILE, SMILE, SMILE.
@jw22345 It was wicked hot at these shows - as I recall, this was the year that the World Cup was played in the USA, and so the stadiums that they would normally have used for summer tour in June and July were already booked, and GD moved everything back a month or so. Vegas in late May = 90 degrees Farenheit - hot, but bearable. Vegas in late June = 100+ degrees farenheit -absolutely unbearable, if the boys hadn't been completely fired up as well. Vegas was the best.
That is for sure. Vince was a bad idea to start with...and it only got worse when he began to think he really was a member of the band and decided to sing those awful songs of his. I would cringe every time I heard him croak out "Way to Go Home".
Wasn't this the year Dave Matthews opened? I remember him commenting on how big the crowd was and asking the Dead if they could do Watch Tower. Awesome run of shows. And it was hotter than hell.
Very Nice...Remember it was 100 degrees in the shade...This was the hottest I had experienced temperatures on this earth at this point in my life. I remember they had misters going on the floor....SO MUCH FUN!
and the Standing on the Moon with the Full Moon...Jerry said "be with You" 26 times! I remember my buddy telling me this and I was happy to know heads like me...
I was there!!! Great show! I believe this was the year that "Drums" brought about a rain cloud with thunder and lightnin over the coliseum and then once the show started there was a huge rainbow!! And, nope, i wasnt on any acid, maybe MDMA??? One great show!!!!!!
I was there for this.. tripping hard at this point.

Did Bob write this, ? the whole album has some tremendous songwriting, their tunes really matured, sorta like Skynyrds last before the crash.
