Mastering Notes:
Tape flip between "Supplication Jam" and "In Hindsight" - seamlessly spliced, but a little bit of the music transitioning between the songs, as well as (I assume) Sara's intro was lost.

Show Notes:
This was the only complete Ratdog set I taped out of 4 Furthurs (got partials on the other 3), as I was at this fest to see one band and one band only, that being The Black Crowes.

That said, it seemed prudent to tape the full Ratdog set in the Dead's home base of the Bay Area, as if there were gonna be any good "guest appearances", my gut told me that Mountain View would be the "where"...and those gut feelings were rewarded not only with a Marc Ford sit in, but also Bonnie Raitt shared her wares with the crowd.

Not my type of music, but this was a very enjoyable set, taped from pretty close to the right stack (when looking at the stage).

He's no rat, cat or dog, but his name is Dennis. He doesn't really like this shit either. So be sure to THANK him for his time.

Say whatever you want to me, I'll combat it with bong hits and strawberry gummies.
