Celebrating my favorite era of live Dead, fall '73! #gratefuldead

Poster art by Ray Simone

"I was young but lucky, this was the show I met Jerry. He had Wolfe made in May and was still jacked about it in December. First guitar he had custom made, paid big bucks 1,500.00 and as I was a carpenter building the stage he was cool enough to take time and tell me about the rosewood on it. Later that night while setting up the Two Towers Owsley directed the men setting up the sound and the show was fabulous. Fun times,Great Memories, Music saturating us, spirits raised, minds expanded, trips galore, onward. What a wonderful building block for me, how does one explain how this positively influenced my life. We are the byproduct of our experiences. Like I said "lucky" The wall of sound did not debut until March 23,1974, there were different versions of big sound systems while developing and the sound engineers plus the guys building the speaker towers coined the "Two Towers" moniker, for the setup on Saturday December 8th 1973."
