| Comments | Pigpen was absent. This list is for the real 10/13/68 (see comments for 10/12/68). Dark Star: Beginning is missing; no banter before Dark Star; verse 1 at 2:15; Dark Star theme at 6:56; Climax at 8:44; Birth of a Star at 10:07; verse 2 at 12:06. After "one man gathers what another man spills" in Saint Stephen, Bobby says "ha ha ha; yeah, that's right". There is a lot of microphone feedback during the William tell verses. The Eleven: neat splice at 12:44. New Potato: Immediately following "all a seer can own" is a splice which cuts back to the ending chord & beginning of drums. Someone shouts "Alligator!". Drums: "Bol" vocals during drums (as in Indian classical). Feedback: As final note fades, someone says "Good Night", then applause, then the emcee says "Ladies & gentlemen, the Grateful Dead!" | ||
