Providence Civic Center

Providence, RI

No surprise to see yet another great show at Providence Civic Center — a well worn Grateful Dead venue. My buddy Roger and I left the venue with about $11.00 between us and spent $5 on a burger and cokes.

We set off for I-95 South after 1am and quickly got rides from Deadheads going south. We later got picked up by a short-haired Navy guy headed to New London, CT. “How’d you like the show?” he deadpanned a few minutes after stopping. “Yeah, I was there, it was killer,” he observed. That just went to show the diversity of the band’s fan base.

Per usual, we made it to NYC Penn Station by morning. No worse for wear and sporting a $6 travel balance and no tickets for the next show, Rutgers University, and didn’t get in. Too many people, too few tickets
