What a haul! In summer school in Northwest Ohio, I traveled from Ada, OH to the Riverbend show the night before. Then onward to meet friends at Blossom. 4 1/2 hours in a '79 Honda Civic that's ready to break down any moment, I come across 3 hitchhikers on I-71.
Everyone is discussing "the naked lady on stage" during Good Lovin' at Riverbend....she just went nuts in the rain, we all guessed. My hitchhiker friends introduce me to ecstasy.
The scene was tense. Apparantly the Deadheads pulled into town to early and got the folks upset. Security was bitter.
The opener..."DAY TRIPPER"! I was in heaven and the rest of the show rocked. As an encore "Touch of Gray"....what is this song? I LOVE IT! On a new album? When?
The rest is history!

The last Blossom show had annoying undercover in the parking lot. Great set, with a crazy haze over the parking lot after the show.

I
Day Tripper-4th of 5th time played
Jack Staw-Solid performance
II
Wheel>Playin'>China Doll
Execellent combination. Wheel was kinda of vocally rough but improved, while the Playin' refrain had some interesting string twisting licks by Jerry before easing into a haunting China Doll.

Sugar Magnolia-properly rocked the jernt.

E: Touch-missing from tape.

Probably the best overall show. Been listening to this and the Hershey show for over 20 years.

I love Summer 85 a few flubbed lyrics but the playing super hot! The next few nights have some of my favorite second set openers ever MNS Hershey Park. Scarlet Fire and Shakedown the next night at Post Merryweather all 3 just sick! This is a very nice show as well the Playing here is really good. NFA 65-95!!!
