One of the only Grateful Dead stubs from the 80s I still have. Fun show - I was 19 years old, full of whiskey, mushrooms & optimism. Times sure change.

I saw Sound Garden the year before with Neil Young & Pearl jam at CNE. That was my first show Sound Garden, was impressed with both SG & PJ, as neither were bans I listened to at the time.

Molson Park was always a blast. This is one the few stubs that survived the 80s.
