@CPapasergio i was there, my first out of town Dead show. After Music Never Stopped, Jerry took off his guitar, but Phil ran over to him and held up his finger "one more." Garcia assented, and they went into Scarlet Begonias.
The Family Dog on 660 Great Highway in SF folded in Aug '70, but the ballroom was open for 2 more years. I document all the known shows at the Friends & Relations Hall from 1970-72.

@QueenCityJamz This was the Regency I at 1320 Van Ness SF. Opened Dec β67. Building constructed 1911 as Scottish Rites Temple. Regency II, opened Dec β69, around the corner at 1268 Sutter was also part of former Scottish Rites Temple. Previously the Avalon Ballroom.
@CPapasergio@dJseedyR No recording. I doubt the show even took place, but thatβs just me. They had played Winterland (big for the era) just nine days earlier.
@CPapasergio JGB had a three date tour in the Pacific Northwest (Oct 26-27-28 '78). Bob Weir Band opened all three. Jerry heard Bob's keyboard player and said "this guy might work."

@CalBearsHistory @Cal @jerrygarcia Just to be clear, it's the one a few buildings back that's at a 90-dgree angle to the station (the building is on University Ave). @gratefulseconds didn't you work in that building about 70 years later?
@CalBearsHistory @Cal I believe that the 4-story square building facing towards the station (not the elaborate Edwardian house) was the building next to what became Keystone Berkeley. @JerryGarcia played Keystone 243 times, among other things.
