    Here Comes Sunshine -} China Cat Sunflower -} I Know You Rider
    2/17/73 St. Paul Auditorium, St. Paul, MN
    This triad of songs has been a long-time favorite of mine. A reviewer on LMA referred to it as "the Holy Trinity." That may be overstating it a bit, but the point is well-taken. On just their third performance of Here Comes Sunshine the band brilliantly segues into China Cat Sunflower. It's quite possibly one of the best transitions the band ever performed in their career. The transition is so natural and seamless that one must wonder whether it was rehearsed and more importantly why it was never played again! Some are quick to point out that the performance of each of the songs taken individually is only average for the time period -- which by the way is still amazing! However, I think most would agree that when taken together as a package it results in a powerful synergy that pushes this version into the realm of transcendence. It's magic like this that fuels our obsession with this band.

    I agree that this is a “trinity “ that works together like a divinely prepared meal. Art at its highest form, I’ve been in awe of the transition since late 80’s when I traded this show: an amazing period for The Dead. I have been trying to chase down Here comes Sunshine via D&Co. Missed every one they do. ? So far.
    St Stephen opener into the Eleven at Shoreline was mindblowing!!!! Thanks D& Co!

    Installment 3:
    The first time that I saw the
    Grateful Dead was in February of 1973. Despite
    the fact that it was the middle of the winter in Minnesota, I don’t remember it
    being cold or even wearing a jacket. I
    went with a bunch of my high school friends, maybe 5 or 6 of us. I think the only Dead album that I had, or
    that my friends had, was the Skull and Roses album. But I know that we were familiar with some of
    the songs from American Beauty and Workingman’s Dead, so I think that I or one
    of my friends also had those albums. We
    must have, because it was not like we were hearing the Dead much on the radio -
    even the progressive album rock FM stations didn’t really play the Dead much (at
    least not that I remember).
    The venue, a large auditorium,
    wasn’t in the best part of Saint Paul.
    Before going into the show, we went to some kind of fast food place like
    a McDonalds that was right near the venue to get something to eat. There was a sort of down and out homeless guy
    hanging out in there (think August West, but really creepy and pushy, and too
    far gone to get up and fly away). He
    wanted us to help him, maybe give him some money I suppose. As part of his plea for money, he shows me
    his colostomy bag full of urine. I was a
    little sheltered growing up in a nice suburb of Minneapolis, so this set the
    evening on a weird trajectory.
    My friends had all purchased their
    tickets together, but I was kind of a late addition and so I purchased my
    ticket separately. As we enter the venue
    we form a line, and the person taking the tickets takes one at a time from each
    of my friends, and then ushers each of them to the left so that they go to the
    main floor. I was the last one to go
    in. The guy takes my ticket, and ushers
    me to the right so that I have to go up to the second floor balcony area. Immediately, before I even realize what has
    happened, my friends are gone…gone…gone.
    Do I need to explain that we didn’t have cell phones?
    It takes a while for the gravity of
    the situation to sink in. Not only am I
    going to have to watch the show all by myself, but I have no clue how I am
    going to meet up with my friends after the show. I didn’t drive there, so I hadn’t paid a
    whole lot of attention to where we parked, and I wasn’t even sure if I could
    find the car. How I was going to get
    home? I envisioned an evening haunted by
    the August West guy from the McDonalds.
    I am up in the balcony, practically crying, all by myself. I wander down, down, not to the docks of the
    city but rather to the edge of the railing, and I look out over the sea of
    people on the main floor. Then I hang my
    head at the utter futility of ever finding my friends, and my gaze falls to the
    main floor directly below me. What the
    fuck? It’s my friends. There they are just milling around, right
    below me. I call out to them and they see
    me. I yell at them to throw me up a
    ticket stub (remember those?). They hear
    me, but they can’t throw a little rectangle of paper up to the second floor. No matter how hard they try, it only goes up
    a few feet, and then it flutters back down to them. But one of my friends has the brilliant idea
    to stick the ticket stub into a lighter, and then he tosses the lighter up to
    me. I caught the lighter, and I was able
    to use the ticket stub to get into the main floor and rejoin my friends for the
    show.
