Jerry's Space - August 1st - 9th

It's Jerry Time! Every year, right around this space and time, we gather-round to remember that particular melody from our favorite pied-piper Jerry Garcia. Oh the days of yore, how I yearn for thee. Come one, come all to Shakedown Stream™ with JerBear on mvyradio.com for two (2) weeks of lots and lots of music from Jerry Garcia with the Grateful Dead, the Jerry Garcia Band and other little bits and pieces from Jerry's Space. 

1984

Of all the years combined of the Grateful Dead's live shows, 1984 is the least represented of their 30 year run. That's probably because it was not a good year; Jerry was not doing well. His health was quite poor from chronic opiate use as well as being overweight, smoking cigarettes and wearing red t-shirts. It is hard to find too many stand-out shows, however, down on Shakedown Stream™, I think we found some sweet nuggets worthy of our attention. In our unlimited devotion to the month of July's '84 quest, we  featured five (5) shows from '84. Check them out here:

• Berkeley Community Theatre (11/3)
• Hampton Coliseum (4/14)
• The Greek Theatre (7/15)
• Ventura County Fairgrounds (7/22) 
• Carrier Dome, Syracuse, NY (10/20)
