Notes
  • Setlist incomplete. David Lemieux shared a couple songs on The Taper's Section and mentioned a couple more. The remainder of what we list here comes from the recollections of Greg Carmack on setlist.net.
  • deadessays: Deadbase Corrections | The Missing Shows of 1971: "Garcia made a rare guitar change during the show, switching from his Peanut to a Les Paul before NFA"
  • Next Time You See Me and Me And Bobby McGee shared on The Tapers Section on the week of 2007-03-12. "The first show, 3/17/71, has a few technical issues at key points in the master tapes (specifically bad cuts in the reels during Hard To Handle and the Other One suite), but from that show we were able to salvage this good version of Next Time You See Me as well as this tight version Me and Bobby McGee, both from the first set."
