"We went over there to do a big festival, a free festival they were gonna have, but the festival was rained out. It flooded. We stayed at this little chateau which is owned by a film score composer who has a 16-track recording studio built into the chateau, and this is a chateau that Chopin once lived in; really old, just delightful, out in the country near the town of Auvers-sur-Oise, which is where Vincent van Gogh is buried. We were there with nothing to do: France, a 16-track recording studio upstairs, all our gear, ready to play, and nothing to do. So, we decided to play at the chateau itself, out in the back, in the grass, with a swimming pool, just play into the hills. We didn't even play to hippies, we played to a handful of townspeople in Auvers. We played and the people came -- the chief of police, the fire department, just everybody. It was an event and everybody just had a hell of a time -- got drunk, fell in the pool. It was great." Jerry Garcia
"On the solstice, June 21, the weather cleared and they set up in back of the chateau near the pool, which the children of Herouville had encircled with hundreds of candles. As Lesh recalled it, their guests included "the police chief, the fire chief, and the mayor . . . No Dead Heads - it was just boogie down . . . a little acid being passed around, not too much, just right, and of course, the Light Sound Dimension (light show) was there, Bill Ham . . . and they played too. We did our set, and they did their set. And they were great - we were all getting real high by that time," Lesh said laughing. "It was outdoors at the chateau, right around the swimming pool . . . the classic garden party with the G.D. and the LSD. Talk about a piece of San Fransisco transplanted into the heart of France . . . " Topped off with a round of dunkings in the pool begun by the police chief - Weir exacted the Dead's revenge, of course, dunking him back - it was among the best parties the Dead had ever enjoyed." Phil Lesh
