They played an amazing 6 song set which included celebrated renditions of “Bird Song” and the Lowell George song “Easy to Slip”. Jerry also sat in with Country Joe McDonald on “Starship Ride” and “Lady With The Lamp”. Rare Jerry Garcia original show posters are highly sought after and collectible in their own rite.
