a great four day run sandwiched by Saratoga and City Island. My favorite memory of this day was when an army helicopter came to hover over the lawn to dry it out from the previous nights biblical rains. the helicopter landed in our parking lot. as the pilot was getting out to go check in at the venue, a deadhead asked if he could put a sticker on the helicopter. the pilot gave an very strong no. And threatened arrest to anyone who did it. But then he left to walk to the venue. when he came back there were probably 200 stickers on the helicopter. He was so pissed but I think he realized what a bad idea it was....great shows. great times!

This night I was in the seats. A fun pair of shows. The Dead were on a pretty good roll, playing some new stuff (Touch of Gray, Throwing Stones), Jerry in good form. Thanks for the video.

Saw them a couple of times in UK, Bickershaw and the Alexandra Palace. Great memories. Thank you Voodoonola, wherever and whoever you may be, for all the wonderful music you have made available and thanks to all the band and crew and fans that made it all happen, we salute you.

@@cjnav7832 I totally remember the mud sliding otter hippie people! I took a train from New York City to DC and hitchhiked out to the Meriwether, then hitchhike to the Greyhound bus station to go home. I spent about a half an hour as the parking lot was clearing yelling to people passing by “who’s going north, who is going north?“. Nobody was stopping for me. Finally some heads said “where are you going?“ I said DC. They said “that’s south!“ So I quickly started yelling who is going south! I got picked up immediately by two Japanese that has straight from Japan in a rented Mitsubishi. The Mitsubishi had a really good sound system and I had the cassette of the show. I didn’t patching that night but got a pretty fair tape with my Sony Walkman microphone taped to a car antenna. I handed the tape up to the front seat without telling them it was the show we just saw. They were so excited when they realized what they were listening to. They took me all the way to the Greyhound bus station where the bus to New York was just about to leave and they parked behind the bus keeping it from backing up, while I ran inside and got a ticket. After about 30 minutes on the bus I got up went into the bathroom, pried open the tiny plexiglass window and put a wide of toilet paper in there to keep it open a crack. I started to smoke a joint. Suddenly the bus starts slowing down and completely stops. I knew we were past all the tolls and that something was going on. I clipped my Doobie, and open the bathroom door to walk back to my seat. The light from the bathroom was the only light on the bus and flooded me. The whole bus turn back to look over the shoulder at me as the bus driver was coming back to me. He asked me to come with him as he exited the bus and stood yelling at me on the side of 95, At like one in the morning. He was yelling “you were getting high on my bus! You were smoking marijuana on my bus?! You’re so high right now you don’t even know where you are!“ All I could think of was A Maryland state trooper happening by and wondering why a greyhound would be stopped on the side of the interstate. I just looked at him silently, probably looking pretty pathetic. He shook his head and said get back on the bus and don’t cause any trouble. The rest of the trip was uneventful. Do I have to mention that I was tripping balls?

83 was the tipping point for Jerry in terms of his health and his voice. 1982 he pretty much still had for the most part his original timber in his voice but by 83 you could hear the what was to come for 84-85. But this is still kind of the pure unadulterated Dead before they got huge. Phil still pudgy during his Heineken days.

Thanks so much for posting. We used to whine about how bad Jerry sounded in 83, but his vocals weren't bad. Second show was easier to take, given the prior nights deluge. The next night, at City Island in Harrisburg, also was good. I caught a lot of shows that year and I'm glad to say they were pretty tight. One of most gratifying decisions was spending as much time as I could touring with The Dead in '83. New Years, Tempe, Vegas, LA, Davis (hardly anybody went and you could get "this close" to Garcia from the floor), this show, City Island (weird setting), and others. Very Good Times.

This was my first Dead show, out of 100+ throughout the 80s, including an epic summer tour in '87 selling tie-dyes out of a VW microbus to pay for gas! Anyways, I was 19 or so, a friend had given me a 70s tape with Dark Star & Other One on it the year before, so I spent the first set thinking: Is this a Country music band!! :-) But Loser & Looks Like Rain have been a favorites ever since. 2nd set, everybody's dancing like crazy, and I'm standing in the middle like a statue, mesmerized. Then this really, really cute hippy girl shoves me from behind…I look back, she smiles at me with a look that says, 'Come on, Man!' And a switch flipped in my head…I LET GO and have danced like a marionette to GD ever since! Thanks, cute hippie chick…I love you to this day! (And wish I wasn't too shy or stoned to talk to you then.)

The first set song selection here is as good as it gets. When I was a teenager in the late 80s, I had a whole bunch of Merriweather shows on tape. What I heard on these tapes was better than average. Obviously whoever was running the place knew how to treat people. For those of you who made it to any shows at this venue, you lucked out, I'm a little jealous. These shows were a few years before my time, but at least we had Knick, Alpine and of course Buffalo. You make me very happy V. thank you!

This doesn't seem like same concert from video given my view from lawn. It It It poured. The lightening was spectacular. Really thought people where going to die and amazed the stage electronics weren't impacted. It rain so hard, and I recall looking down at my feet. They looked like boats traveling uphill against a river of water. There were wakes from them because the water was gushing so fast. We laughed and froze. Going back to car, the park ranges had to divert traffic as entrances were washed out or blocked. I remember seeing 4 motorcycles parked near the creek, and all you could see was the mirrors sticking out above the water. We made it to the car and stripped off our wet clothes and marveled.

I love that "Throwing Stones" was so new that we were kinda calling it different things then. I mean, it hadn't been released, so some of us were calling it Ashes to Ashes, or All Fall Down, or whatever, and it was like the fans finally decided it was called "Throwing Stones", and the band just went along with it. At least that's the way I remember it.

Ah, the rain! Stuck outside on the lawn, lucky enough to have a giant tarpaulin. People were begging to get under it, but we only had so much space. Good shows! They were actually - for a short while - handing out these armfuls of straw to the first few to enter the incredibly slick lawn slope the second night. I remember people walking around carrying the hay like the figure on front of "Wake Of The Flood" album. Bobby was pretty trashed and even walked backwards into the drums at one point! Undercover cops were everywhere trying to score acid. Incredibly easy to spot, almost felt sorry for the idiots......

You have a far better memory of these two shows than I do. I got on the bus in '83. I'd caught shows in Providence and Portland in the spring of '83 and I caught all of the Merriweather shows. I just started listening to these shows recently and each of them has something that makes it unique and rocking. The deluge the night before this was insane. I had been out on the lawn and somehow scored a pavilion seat just before the hellacious downpours. I'll never forget the insane lightning strikes behind the band and Phil throwing down in time with the thunder. My friend and I were early to the bridge that was under water. People were crossing by having a line of people locking arms making it a team effort... insane.

yes lets get it posted on youtube. I want to know if my memory of Bobby leaping and ringing a chord at the exact moment of a huge lighting strike actually occurred. Until that night, I loved the dead as a cool band yet after that lighting concert my perception expanded and some fear was added. I saw a beast revealed as a bone crunching hydra headed monster!!! Slayer of small mind comforts...

@@ericwj7 look for Dean Grabski's audience recording from the lawn in the rain. It's a terrific sounding documentation of the evening. We were standing right near him. I got a copy early on. It's on Internet Archives site. The one time you really need an audience tape. You actually know when the lightning is intense by the crowd reaction. The band fed off it, too. It's still unbelievable the band played through all that. It could never happen in today's world, exposing a crowd to such "dangerous conditions". Imagine the lawsuit potential.

I said the same in a reply today cause I'm a 1976 model but I was so fortunate to be turned on in '90 by older heads but wasn't able to convince my mom, definitely not Heady either, that it was time for me to see Jerry when they'd get close to us kids. '93 Chapel Hill and 19 more up to Pittsburgh, PA '95 where I was inspired,but just didn't know it yet, 4 rain song 2nd set would lead me to give my first daughter Rain as her middle name. 🎶strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand. Everybody's playing in the heart of Gold band🎶 Listen friend I think it's so Grateful that without ever catching a show you remains a Head brother. Something magical about the marriage of lyrics, musicianship, and the vibrations that were created because of. I'm still drunk off being able to type in a show I listened and traded on analog and POOF they're live on my phone. ⚡Love and Light brother⚡

That was pretty unusual to have Terrapin in the middle of the set. It was firmly established as the song before Drums by 1983, with an occasional throwback segue to Playing in the Band.
