Mr. Completely#gratefuldead collector news - for a long time the "last missing show" (aka the latest show for which there is no recording at all) has been 2.6.79 Tulsa - but a source just circulated today. Is the tape good? Probably not! Is the show any good? No idea. I'll find out both soon lol
Evdude@mrcompletely wait, wait wait....out of like 3,000 shows, there's only 1 that's missing?! And now it's been located? That's absolutely insane to me.
@Evdude no - it was the chronologically latest show for which there was no recording in public circulation. There are definitely other shows we know were played but we don't have any tape: just under 400 per Jerrybase in fact, though over 300 of those are from 1968 or earlier. This pushes the latest missing show back to 1971. The 1978 and 1973 dates on this list are available as video and on an official audio release respectively
@mrcompletely ahh that makes much more sense 🙏
