The Night Jerry Died.

I have never seen such GUTS by any individual like a few thousand people
witnessed by four men...especially Weir. At the end of an unbelievable
Knockin', Weir, in anger and in pain, tossed his guitar to the ground and
bolted stage right! The last verse included, "Why is it such a damn
waste/ I believe I'm knockin' on Heaven's door."

The Club Casino set up speakers outside in the parking lot for the
ticketless...a grand gesture.

Before the set started, Weir said:
"Well, if there's anything our friend taught is, it's that music can be used to
ease us through the sad times."

Wasserman's Amazing Grace solo was indescribable, with tears streaming
down his face at its bittersweet end.

I have nothing but the deepest admiration for Bob Weir! He is a true
brother! By all rights, he could have easily been in the bay area, but he chose
to play. He needed to get it out of his system...a true musician paying homage to
family! A true soul!

At the end of Knockin', there were numerous chants of "JERRY, JERRY"
before it segued into the NFA chant...for over 15 minutes!!!! I lost
it at the end of Knockin'...I broke down...and then the NFA chant!
For a Deadhead, there was no place you'd rather be than at Hampton
Beach.

You Know Our Love Will Not Fade Away!

Papa's Gone, We Are On Our Own!
