Our guest this week, Teri, grew up Mormon listening to The Cure in Salt Lake City. In her early twenties, her ex-husband turned Teri onto the Dead, in time to catch her first shows at the Sam Boyd Silver Bowl in '93. But it was not until a Brown-Eyed Women the next year at the Desert Sky Pavilion that she really got on the bus. Cue up our latest episode and listen to Teri's tales of walking to the '95 shows at the Delta Center with her Mom, mourning Jerry at a Lyle Lovett concert, and living as a Deadhead in the Rocky Mountain West.
