vg NOTES (3/29/2023):
--Thanks so much to ijwthstd for recording & sharing this Go Ahead 1988 show with us all.  Absolutely Appreciated!!  
--this source sounds like it's running just a tad bit fast & could use some speed correction, among other fixes (Sectional Balance, EQ, etc.)--don't get me wrong, still totally appreciated, just pointing this stuff out, etc.  
--only the very, very beginning of t11 ("Walkin' Blues") is clipped...it starts well before the first verse of the tune
--t21 ("Far Away") is missing a couple lines from the 1st verse from a cassette flip there
--This show was part of the 'Dodge & Chrysler-Plymouth Concert Series' at Universal Amphitheatre & was billed as a  "Deadhead Celebration"

--I added the band members info
--Bob Weir was a member of Go Ahead from 1987-11-28 to its dissolution after their show on 1988-03-11.  They played some scattered dates here & there after this (w/o Weir), but they were done with any touring, etc.  
--Originally, I had copied & pasted the basic band members info (which I added to) to this text file & that included Jesse Colin Young (I thought that I got that info from the page about this show on db.etree, but I don't see it there now so I can't remember where I found that), but I have since discovered thru much research into this band that he was never actually a part of the band & therefore should not be listed...that is information that seems to have been added to tapes by someone at a certain point & just got carried & forwarded along the way & added to certain tapes & therefore is still hanging around in the info on some of these Go Ahead recordings, etc.  I've never heard him announced during the band intros at any of these shows (including this one) nor has anyone ever stepped forward to stand behind the fact that he was there.  On the pages about this band in both of the below links, Jesse is only ever mentioned as being someone that Jerry Cortez played lead guitar for & additionally, Jerry also played with Jesse in the revived 1980s version of the Youngbloods...Jesse is never mentioned beyond that & the research into this band on those blog pages is pretty damn thorough.  If anyone knows different, please chime in & let us all know, won't you??  
--the fact that 'jesse colin young' is in the Topics on this page is a mistake & therefore should be ignored

--added more detail to the venue info
--This venue no longer exists...it opened on 1972-06-28 & was originally known as "Universal Amphitheatre" (1972-2005)...it was originally an outdoor arena & closed in 1980 for refurbishment & the addition of a roof...then in 2005 it became known as "Gibson Amphitheatre" (2005-2013).  The amphitheater closed on September 6, 2013 and was demolished for "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood.
