August 1st, and it kicks off a week that's known as Days Between. voice-verified

And it's become more of a celebration than anything else, specifically the celebration of Jerry Garcia's life, but also a celebration of everything Grateful Dead. voice-verified

And it's kind of cosmic that it happens in August because the summer tours were such a big part, a grateful deadline for the band and for the fans. voice-verified

Yeah, it was my first show. voice-verified

I'd been listening and exploring. voice-verified

And then when I went to the first show and that first note, when everybody started dancing and I didn't expect it. voice-verified

And I'm like, what is this? voice-verified

And then I felt like, okay, I found my people. voice-verified

Do you remember the date? voice-verified

It's 5-4-91. voice-verified

Yeah, yeah. voice-verified
