Uptown Theatre Chicago Art Print, from an Original Oil Painting

I spotted this on Cafe Press this morning. It is a print of an oil painting by Don Elmi, available here.

Grateful Dead at the Uptown

The Uptown Theatre closed in 1981, making this show by The Grateful Dead one of the last to be held there. I was 12 at the time, too young to really know who The Dead were, let alone be allowed to go to a concert, but I bet it was an amazing show. (My first concert, I'm embarrassed to admit, was Corey Hart from his "Sunglasses at Night" phase. I was 15.)

I did find a link where there is streaming audio of their performance from the February 27, 1981.
