Beauty 11/1970	Big Boss Man 07/17/1966 Fillmore Auditorium
Coming out of a show at Giants Stadium still in post-concert elation, we realized we didn't know where our car was. We kept circling the stadium in a bigger and bigger spiral. Along the way we laughed, sang, met other post concert revelers, and kept on spiraling. Finally, around 3:30am there was our little red car covered in Dead stickers. This is how we invented "The Spiral Dance of the Giants."	It was June of '90. I was in the San Francisco Airport on my way to the Eugene, Oregon shows when I looked up and saw Jerry. I went over and introduced myself and told him I played in a band that played Grateful Dead music. He smiled and said "Oh yeah? So do I." We laughed and spoke for a short while. I did get his blessings to keep playing the Dead's stuff. He just said "Do a good job of it."

California 02/26/1977 Swing Auditorium	Iris 04/01/1976
We had come out from Knoxville, Tennessee to see the shows at the Greek Theatre. I was walking around barefoot when I stepped on a piece of glass that went deep into my heel. One of the guys from the Haight Free Clinic took me back stage and took care of me. Even limping I was ready to dance. In the first set the Boys played Walkin' Blues into Tennessee Jed. How did they know what happened to me?	I was waiting for the first set to start one night when I noticed a young guy in a wheelchair. I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him that he couldn't dance. It took all of about three notes of the Shakedown opener to realize that I couldn't have been more wrong. He was dancing as hard as I ever have. He had the best moves. He could even spin!

King Bee 04/18/1969 Memorial Union Ball Room	Lazy Lightning 10/18/1983 Cumberland County Civic Center
I remember the first time I mail ordered for my tickets. I made sure I followed every direction 100%. I would have never forgiven myself if I made a mistake and didn't get my tickets. The first day the envelope could be post marked I'd be at the post office early that morning. I never waited in line for Dead tickets again. I used to draw cool pictures on the envelope to help make it stand out.	The first time I saw a hack circle was on tour and I was like, "Why are those people trying to kick that little ball?" I asked someone and they explained. Being adventurous I gave it a go. Man, did I stink. I kept at it and actually got pretty good. Now I'm never without a hacky sack in my backpack. Kickin' a sack at Dead shows was a great way to meet people and to get ready for dancing!

Love Light 10/20/1988 The Summit	Mexicali 10/19/1971 Northrop Auditorium
One of the best things about tour was all my "Tour Friends" - the people you only saw on tour all over the country. I didn't even know a lot of their names but that hardly mattered. I'd get hugs and hang out with people for days on end and then not see them until our paths crossed again. You could tell who liked what cities and venues by running into them at the same places all the time on different tours.	Camping was one of my favorite things to do on tour. Once, we traded tapes with some other heads in a rest stop and they invited us to the farm that they were camping at for the show. People played instruments around a bonfire all night long. I've camped in national parks and even people's back yards, skinny dipped in ponds and cooked over wood fires. For me camping was the only way to do tour.

Mr. Fantasy 06/14/1984 Red Rocks Amphitheatre	Black Peter 3/25/91 Knickerbocker Arena
I had been to a lot of different concerts before, but I had never been to a Dead Show. A bunch of my friends and I went to my first show together. I was their Grateful Dead "Virgin" and they proceeded to tell everyone. I ended up having a really great time. I'm not the biggest fan of the Dead, but a Grateful Dead concert is one of the most fun places in the world. It's like a psychedelic amusement park.	My favorite thing about being on tour was that even someone you had never met before would rather say hi, flash you a great big smile or even give you a hug than just walk past you staring at their shoes. I wish it was always like that.
