A Long Ago Day in Argentina Or Where Were You When Jerry Died?

[Peppers49]

I was a freshly-graduated young person at work when I heard the news, and I spent the rest of the day recalling the trip we'd made to see them at Carter-Finley in July(?), 1990, just 5 years prior.

Below is my favorite track by them, for many reasons. But mostly for sentimental ones. RIP Jerry.

CF summer 90 was a great show. During Covid they would stream full old shows for free like once a week and I remember watching that one on the couch by myself. Think there was maybe a lightning delay at one point.

I too lived in San Francisco at the time. I decided to figure out this internet thing. I plugged one of those aol disks into my computer and dialed up (for the first time). AOLNews flash- Jerry Garcia Dead! It was the very first thing that happened when I got online for the very first time.
