Press:
- "Jerry Garcia Band to Play at Laker Hall," Pulaski Democrat, February 13, 1980, p. 12
- Review: [positive] Fausner 1980; during ITAM he noted "annoyance in Garcia's face as he kicked is microphone stand in disgust", apparently having some equipment issues, while "Kahn's lack of movement was due to the fact that he played the show with a 102 degree fever and had been taken to the hospital prior to the show." The Eleanor Rigby jam broke out exactly at midnight.
