Live close to Arcata? Jerry's Middle Finger plays 2 nights this weekend

...and don't forget my favorite road trip stop while there -- The Finnish Sauna place

Big fan. Nice band. This dude Garrett is top level shreddy and his tone is impeccable.

Wish I could go! 

Hoping for some pop-up shows while I'm working remotely from Cali April 11-22 (Easter weekend is for DNB Campout, woop woop!)

I'm definitely attending both of JMF's Arcata shows. Heck, it's only a 90-minute drive for me!

FYI... here's the 2 shows that JMF is apparently recreating on April 1 & 2:

1982/3/18 - Jerry Garcia Band - Mojo's nightclub, Arcata, CA    

1982/3/19 - Jerry Garcia Band - Mojo's nightclub, Arcata, CA 

And, as an added bonus, I actually attended one of those two Jerry Band shows at Mojo's... and that's no April Fool's! 

Mojo's was a cool but short-lived nightclub in Arcata in the late '70s and early '80s... https://jerrygarciasbrokendownpalaces.blogspot.com/2012/08/mojos-856-10t...

 

Audio of the 3/18/1982 show was JUST uploaded to YouTube less than 2 weeks ago... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5-JFySheFs

and finally... here's a list of the personnel in Jerry's band 40 years ago, but unfortunately I have few vivid recollections of the evening, except that it was super crowded because tons of fans were sneaking in with easy-to-forge hand stamps...

Jerry Garcia - guitar, vocals; John Kahn - bass; Melvin Seals - keyboards; Jimmy Warren - keyboards; Bill Kreutzmann - drums; Liz Stires - backing vocals; Julie Stafford - backing vocals

You'll have fun, Mr. Fish.

Go Fish go! 

Thanks for posting those links and stories.

That's great Gary. A friend of mine went to both shows in '82, but missed the next night in Garberville, which was another ripper...

Best I could do was see Phish there in '91 when it was called the International Beer Garden. I think the place held about 200 people.

Have fun at the shows!
