Grateful Dead ~ 7/28/1973, Watkins Glen Summer Jam

[@michaelharrington5914]

Ate some Mr. Natural on the way in. Got displaced from my cohorts, and spent the next 18 hours wandering around. I ran into some folks from my home town, and then roamed some more. Somehow, I managed to hook back up with the guys afterwards. God only knows how. We got back to the car and someone had stolen the battery. Got that taken care of, and on the way home to MA the driveshaft fell out. Luckily we weren't far from an auto parts store. All in all, quite a show and adventure! Good to still be here to remember...

THE concert with the coolest Soundcheck 😊

[@george.s.8491]

Really cool!! That stage was really up there!

[@eephour7221]

The pre-Wall or mini-Wall of Sound here. JBL D140 speakers for the bass driven by McIntosh 2300 power amps and Alembic preamps. Not sure what speakers Jerry is using. JBL D130’s maybe?

Back when the speakers and amps on stage weren't props. Would love to hear the Monkey song that preceded this... Jerry sounds really good in this set.

What guitar is Bobby playing?

[@scottbee1854]

According to google Bob alternates between a Les Paul, an SG, an ES-335 (all Gibson), and an Alembic. He plays into two rebuilt Twins, one of which powers a pair of Alembic B-12 cabinets, each having two D-120 JBL's in it. He drives his extension speakers with McIntosh 2300 amps. In this clip I’m guessing the Alembic?
