Hammerstein Ballroom
The Hammerstein Ballroom had popped up around that time as a "new" live music venue in NYC. It was actually an old venue that had been known as the Manhattan Center. (On setlists.FM there is a gap from the late 70s through the 90s for any shows there.) Most Deadheads knew that some classic live tracks played by the Dead, particularly the ultra-classic versions of Not Fade Away - Going Down the Road Feeling that appear on the "Skull and Roses" live album - were recorded at the Manhattan Center in 1971. But until the Hammerstein Ballroom re-opened for shows in the 1990s, I had no idea where the "Manhattan Center" even was or whether it still existed.
