The history of each venue is here, including architects, builders, owners, opening night performances, and other notable appearances, murals, statues, stage prosceniums, backstage areas, pipe organs, secret rooms, hidden tunnels, restorations, and demolitions. Each venue holds a rich bounty of history that will electrify and arouse the senses. Reflect on the moment when the lights went out, the crowd stands up, and Garcis’s silhouette appears from the darkness—the audience knew, and with immense enthusiasm anticipated—the magic that was about to unfold. Jerry Garcia’s every musical performance was a unique and powerful psychedelic experience in and of itself. Some day, the last person who witnessed Jerry perform live, and really ‘got it,’ is going to pass… and that deep tribal knowledge of the ‘in’ moment of sharing space and time with him will be gone. But Garcia’s essence lives on in the pages of this bountiful, limited edition, two-volume set of meticulously crafted books.
