Raising The Dead – Notes and Comment Section – Arizona Daily Star 9-18-97

The Deadheads remember.  The Date was April 11, 1969.  The venue was Centennial Hall.  And the band, 
of course, was the Grateful Dead, the only time Jerry Garcia and Co. ever rocked the Old Pueblo.

Remembering, however, isn’t the same as reliving the event, and for decades fans wished that someone, 
anyone, had taped the concert, just so they could experience it all over again.  But now, all these years later, 
a tape of that historic show has finally surfaced, and KXCI Radio’s “Dead Air” program is going to air it – 
as soon as fans chip in $3,500 to the station’s Fall Fiesta Membership Drive.  Included with a paid 
membership of $100 or more is a limited-edition “Dead Air” T-shirt.  Call 623-1000.
