Jerry Garcia Backstage Pass : 1981 : Jerry Garcia Band : Fall Tour '81 ! : November 17, 1981 ( 11/17/81 : 11/17/1981 ) : Uptown Theater - Chicago, Illinois ( IL ) : 1981 Jerry Garcia / Jam Presents ( JG / JP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Very-Rare !!!Garcia Fans !! who really dig the Rare ! And, of course ... the way cool-looking too ! Offered here is a stellar little piece of Early ! J.G.B. Rock & Roll History !! This is a Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Jerry Garcia Band ( J.G.B. ! ) Backstage Pass for the 1981 Fall Tour stop at the Uptown Theater in Chicago, Illinois !!! This was a Big-League 1981 East Coast / Mid-West Garcia Band run that delivered 17 1/2-Shows in 14-Venues ! from Halloween 1981 ... all the way through 11/19/81 at the Rainbow Theater in Denver, Colorado ! This Tour stretched through Pennsylvania - New York - Maryland - New York (again) - New Jersey - Washington D.C. - New Jersey (again) - New York (again) - Massachusetts, Vermont - Rhode Island - Chicago, and Colorado ! Truly setting the early ' path ' for many future Garcia Tours in the East! So, this 11/17/81 Chicago Show was the 2nd to last on this '81 Fall Tour - slated right between a Providence Rhode Island Show ( at the Providence Performing Arts Center ) - and the Tour-Closing Show at the Rainbow Theater in Denver, Colorado ... with only 1-day off for the Band in between each Show !?! My goodness were Garcia & Co. just Road Warriors ! during this Late-'70's to Mid '80's Period & Era. And, here at this 11/17/81 Show - a lengthy 15-Song Set was still ! delivered !! Pretty-hot, for certain. And, what is also way-cool about this Backstage Pass -- other then the Chicago City Skyline Design ! itself -- is the fact that Garcia only ever played Ten ( 10 ) Shows ever ! in the entire State of Illinois !!? With, all of them taking place between 1975 and 1991 - not including Grateful Dead Shows, obviously. So, to find a Garcia / J.G.B. Pass or Ticket for Chicago is a pretty tough task in itself ! I'm pretty certain that Chicago was the # 3 U.S. DMA Market at this point in time in 1981 - with only New York & L.A. being larger ... so, Jerry had to get there to take the Music ! to the Fans - but, it was usually a pretty big Tour-stretch to make it there. So ... Chicago Fans ! be Grateful !! Check out the Setlist below Fans - as this was a Hot ! one - and hopefully ( naturally ... ) - You ! were in the House on 11/17/81 -- inside the soon to be closed " Uptown !!! " ... Enjoy !!!!!

Crew ! shorts - as I do even recall ... and I even had the guts to Rock them out on Dead Tour !! Hey Now !!! As after-all ... it was indeed the tail-end of the Glorious ! '80's Era ! and in those ' Fashionable ' days ... you could sure stretch'em - and, I suppose I did ! Yes !! Ahhh ... but just Look ! How-Awesome !!!

I'm Psyched ! to say that I ran just the other day ... and Rocked my Pink Ribbon Tee ! Awesome ... I don't even know if the ' Pink ' thing was in-effect in the Late-'80's ? ... but, nonetheless - all the Cooler ! now. Bertha Do !! Come-Around here when you're lookin' this Fancy ! Ha !! So-cool ...

China > Rider !!! ... as, the Lovelight was no-slouch either ! Yeah Bobby ! ... get-em !! And, I remember very-well that this was one of the ( later on. many ... ) ' I Will Take You Home ' deliveries by Brent ! - that made me a real-fan of that fine lullaby tune ... just Stellar !! Wow ... And, on the next night after this one - on 2/12/89 ... both ! Spencer Davis & Bobby Dylan joined the Band for some tunes - all throughout the Show !!!
