It is quickly becoming a tradition for me and the rest of us "statheads" to check out Burnthday's Tour Stats when Panic finishes up a season. Buddy, I respect your work. Keep on keepin' on.

Grateful Dead, October 17, 18, and 19, 1972, Fox Theatre, St. Louis, Missouri : A surprise email landed in our inbox a couple weeks ago from Joe Kolbenschlag of Huntersville, NC who shared with us his latest Grateful Dead compilation, Steel Cut Oats Volume V: Spirited in St. Louis .
