The promotional matter announces, “JGB will recreate a memorable 1988 Jerry Garcia Band show from the Warfield 30 years earlier. Along with an opening set as a tribute to Jerry featuring Melvin, Oteil, Stanley and Dave”

Since JGB only performed three shows there in '88: 2/6, 3/4 and 3/5, it wasn't too hard to make the positive identification once they got going.
