The Daily Nugs - March 30, 2025
From Grateful Dead of the Day
On this day back in 1968, the Dead shared the bill with Chuck Berry and Curly Cooke's Hurdy-Gurdy Band. Starting off with a Dew> Other One> Dark Star, the show rages, including a ballin' Lovelight and sweet Spanish Jam. Groove to the entire show at Grateful Dead of the Day.
On this day in 1980, John Belushi - in all his glory - joined the boys for a raucous US Blues encore, adding cartwheels and vocals. The Dead also played a sweet Scarlet> Fire and Estimated> Eyes along with the first Far From Me. Read more about Belushi's time with the Dead, hear an interview with Billy about the night, and listen to the entire show.
The show cracks open with Help> Slip> Franklin's, includes a stunning Playin'> China Doll> Uncle John's> Terrapin, and has a monumental Standing On The Moon. And now you can watch it all at Grateful Dead of the Day on beautiful crystal clear video.
