A snapshot from Spring 1970

I'm splitting today's show more or less in half; each dedicated to some of three (though perhaps four) consecutive shows from March 1970.

The first shows (as of now, just early & late on same date) are from the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, NY, a venue played many times but only during 11 months.

The last show is their only gig at Pirate's World, an amusement park and music venue in Dania, FL which featured many rock acts. Surprisingly, there are many mysteries regarding the Dead's show there (note the ticket is for two shows, neither on the 24th) and Lost Live Dead dives deeply into them.

After opening in 1967, Pirate's World was a success, until Disney World opened in 1971, pushing Pirate's World into bankruptcy by 1973 and closing its doors in 1975.
