Okay now I'm confused. Who was at Hershey Park?
I just got my issue of the Golden Road (I thoroughly enjoy when it arrives)
and I have a question about the set list that they posted.

There is a song that sounds identical to Minglewood Blues.
When I was at Hershey I knew alot of people thought it was, but I knew
differently. However some people outside told me the name of this tune
was "Ain't Superstitious". Now I really feel stupid for walking into 
the Nassau Coliseum show late on 3/29/85, but I missed Ain't Superstitious.
When I asked what the first two songs were I was told that the second
one was a song called Ain't Superstitious that sounded alot like 
Minglewood. My new issue of the Golden Road states that the song at
Hershey was called "Down in the Bottom", and that one sounded almost
identical to Minglewood with different words. Can someone clarify if
indeed both of these songs are similiar? This isn't a case of two names
for the same song is it? Help?
