The oops shows. They were scheduled to play in South France & somehow got rained out. They opted to celebrate Bob's birthday in Amsterdam. Played rented instruments. Actually I believe that's a Yamaha Jerry's playing (could be wrong of course).

Just noticed one of the comments in the above link says the instruments were borrowed from the Who. Hadn't heard that before, but Pete Townsend did show up at one of the other shows on the tour, so it's possible.

The Who tour that was cancelled was in March, and The Who and The Dead
did one show, that was broadcast, at Grugahalle on 3/28. The only time I heard
of them borrowing equipment from them was for Egypt. The stuff they used
in Amsterdam was rented.
(The Bobby birthday show was the very last time the Grateful Dead did
an acoustic set).

It's actually pretty amazing what Jerry went through and accomplished, and at times didn't accomplish, over that 20 year period '75-'95.
