========================================================================================================================
the tour story:
Sean reminded me of a story from our campground, which was someone's property just behind the stage about 500 yards down a hill and over this nicely built walking bridge. I'm sure Pinney had the gumption to find this guy and get us the camping space. It was car camping and we had no tents but lots of sleeping bags and tarps. So, in the morning, there were about 40 cars with only two porta potty's, "Don's Johns", was the name of the local septic company. Both porta potty's were so full, no one was using them, so when the honey wagon pulled up, the dude was escorted by deadheads clearing the way for his vehicle. Once he was started doing the job, someone gave him beer in appreciation. Summer tour partying in the hills of Wisconsin! There was so much going on at this campground the night between shows, and as Sean recalled, sleeping didn't seem to be one of those things.

The second day was always mellow but as door time came close people clogged in early so it was still a wild run onto the lawn to stake out a centered taping location. Tom and Sean had pavilion seats, so we have two microphone sources for this show similar to the previous night. Set 1 started with a nice 'Hell in a Bucket' after the crowd gave the boys a nice long ovation celebrating a fine summer run. A solid 'Direwolf' and 'Minglewood Blues' led up to my favorite of the set, 'Duprees Diamond Blues'. Garcia's voice was a bit shot for the tour ender, but he made up for it with some fancy guitar playing. The pavilion version of our recordings emphasizes the sweet cymbal work from Mickey & Billy. 'Brown Eyed Women' featured more solid Jerry licks with 'Looks Like Rain' giving Bobby a chance to shine.

Set 2 was pure Grateful Dead with a Lovelight surprise at the end (the only one on summer tour and the first since 12-31-1982). The 'Cold Rain > Playin > China Doll' sequence has a lot of interplay between songs, with Phil and Jerry just circling around each other trading leads. The 'Playing' Jam is about 10 minutes long and if you listen closely the Lovelight gets teased a few times inside this jam. The drop into 'China Doll' is so abrupt, Jerry sings and plays such a slow, mellow, pretty, Doll with some dirty distorted guitar elements. Phil and Jerry pick it up again on the other side of drums with some tasty Terrapin duelling licks; then Phil bangs away during 'Lovelight' with Bobby doing the predictable over the top vocals. The crowd joyfully cheered the start of Bobby's vocals and we all knew we were fortunate to be here on this Saturday night in the hills of Wisconsin witnessing one of Americana's musical treasures- the Good Ol' Grateful Dead.

This ended my run with the Executive Crew for summer 1984 although Sean was at the Greek for 7-13 and then Ventura with JJ at end of July. What an extended summer tour, starting for Tom and I in Sacramento on June 9th, culminating at this show; we drove the new 1984 Honda accord about 10,000 miles that summer!
