My First Tour, Day 3 Baltimore May 5, 1979 MY Only Baltimore Show

http://www.deadlistening.com/2008/05/1979-may-5-baltimore-civic-center.html

A most excellent review by the tremendous Dead Listening website  (come oout of retirement please !) 

This was third night in a row to see brent debut with the ban. In my 80 shows, I saw 24 with Keith, 55 with Brent and 1 with Vince.

The Dead Listening review is the show provides all you need but this was my first super hot brent show with Dancin in the Street, and Scarlet>Fire both off the charts even in my first viewing (a la Cornell!) and a remarkable Other One too.

My First Brent Show Charlotte May 3, 1979 (His Second)

Me and The Girl With No Name and Bob and Sam drove from Lewison, Maine to Charlotte in one long day, making sure to smoke a joint as we entered every new state from Mainer to NH to Mass to RI to CT to NY to NJ to Del to Mary to Vir to NC. I think that's right. Bob later became a well known taper and the rest of us were just along for the ride.

In Charlotte, I met Joani Walker for the first time. We were all going to 6 shows in 7 days, our first real tour and first shows out of the North East.  

This was Brent's second show.

I recall it felt like a band getting his footing again, which is was. And it may have been my one of my least fav shows of the 1970s but we were on the road and seeing the Dead. It would get better at the fam Hampton and Baltimore venues the next two nights.

Ill give you Brent's first Terrapin which was followed by Brent's first Playin sandwich.

Rest In Peace, Robert Hunter
