Nassau Coliseum
Jerry playing the Tiger guitar at Nassau Coliseum, May 1980
These were classic shows in that time period - and this one smoked from the great Jack Straw opener right through. Also see my post for the night before.
This night and the following are memorilaized on the Dead’s “Go to Nassau” CD release, and excellent alternative recordings are available on archive.org, such as Matthew Vernon’s matrix sound version of this show. https://archive.org/details/gd1980-05-15.126692.mtx.dusborne.flac16/gd80-05-15s1t03.flac
I had floor seats this night, everyone stood on their chairs. I walked up to the front section of the floor towards the end and took some shots of Jerry.
