Out of St. Louis, City of blues

[Alabama Stakes]

But the blues play better out of St Louis, city of Blues. They play well in Boston. Saw Grateful Dead in St Louis in 95 on Summer tour. They had just cancelled a show at Deer Creek due to gate crashing, fire starting, bottle throwing fans. The band was furious and I think hurt by it all. They had a handout that basically said we don't have many rules, but if you pull that crap again, we're done. They all signed it except Jerry. Everyone was on their best behavior. They played the worst show ever to let everyone know they were serious. The next night was better, but they would only play 2 more shows in Chigago. Jerry died a month later. Sad the way things went down
