Jeff, it was '70, not '69. Obviously they were having way too much fun
riding the rails North of the Border :-)

Although the Dead never played the
Aragon, the likeliest year, from the
tour schedule, artist, and supporting
acts has got to place this as
1969, but it appears the Dead were at
Reed's Ranch in Colorado Springs,
CO on July 3rd.
Wikipedia says the Aragon was hosting
shows in 1969 -
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aragon_Ballroom_%28Chicago%29>
Is it possible the show was scheduled and
canceled?
We have a place where we track shows that
did NOT happen, yes?
Peace,
Bob
