  • The Dead played with Sufi Choir before the Dead set.
  • cryptdev: Grateful Dead, Sufi Choir, Whirling Dervish Dancers and Yogi Bhajan. Winterland, 3/24/71
  • Benefit for the Sufi Choir of San Francisco. LIA says NRPS did not appear. This seems to be the night that Tom Davis first met Jerry, wandering unimpeded up onto the stage.
