My freshman year in high school had just ended.... finals were over... the date was june of 1995...
I had a ticket to see the dead at shoreline... Ed spiegl, a senior i knew from the soccer team was my ride to the show... well... ed never showed up... apparently "forgot" about me... and I was stuck at home with a grateful dead ticket and no way to get to mountain view...
jerry died in august of '95.... my first and last chance to see one of my all time favorite bands... i'm still really bummed about it.
