@@jeffreyparksakajenasus8599 Fake corona virus??? Are you insane? Don't you watch the news? Read newspapers? Just kidding. It's sad that most people believe that the mainstream news media is the bottom line source of all truth. Is this corona virus fake? I don't think it's totally fake but it's nowhere near the "pandemic" they're pushing. It's obvious to me that there's another agenda here, but this is not the place to go into it. People want to, and should enjoy the show.

Music is my passion, it has been for the 40+ years I have been on this Planet and I have never ever listened to Grateful Dead and I cannot quite fathom what it is I am now discovering. This feels like a giant easter egg - hidden from my view until now, why, who knows but I can tell that I am going to enjoy going on this journey!! This is something else!!!

[@oliverchapman51177]

That’s amazing to hear. The Grateful Dead are a way of life. There are so many magical shows for you to discover. The different eras are cool because their music evolved over 30+ years. May I suggest the Double live Album “Without a Net” It’s roughly all from around 1990. A magical year for the boys. 71-74 just amazing, 77-80 probably their peak. Then in 89 shit got very good again. 89-91 some of the best Dead. Jerry was happy, he loved Brent too. If your in need of any recording recommendations, let me know

Looking for a long lost friend. My name is Kevin, Your name is John. I was your roommate during 1988, 1989. You owned an apartment on the west side of Boca Raton. You had a beautiful girlfriend that lived with us. I think her name was Dawn. She was originally from Jersey, you were originally from NY. You had an awesome pit bull named Brutus. I cant remember your last name but i owe you a hug and a thank you larger than words can tell. You took me on tour with you. I had no money and you exposed me to the most magical experience of my life. Everything I have in my life these days are a direct result of that experience. You are an awesome human being and i dont think i ever let you know what a positive impact you had on my life or had the opportunity to even say thank you. You took me in to your life and treated me better than my family ever did. I truly hope you are having an amazing life and are happy and healthy. I would be so excited to be able to connect with you someday and see how you are doing. I would love to be able to have an opportunity to somehow re pay you or give you some kind of offering that might impact your life somehow. I cant even imagine how my life would have ended up if you had not let me into your family when i needed it most. If you are out there, or if anyone knows who I am referring to please.....I need a miracle. PEACE!

Absolutely, he was a Beautiful Asset to the Dead. I was actually a little surprised when the boys didnt cancel any shows in the US when Brent died. I think they mite have canceled a show in Paris, but they picked rt up with Hornsby on piano, Then Vince pretty quickly after to add some of the depth back they lost w brent. Some of those following shows after Brents passing were cingin' kid's dreds off tho... Blistering shows in 91'

@@Tommartell73 I like Hornsby and know little about Welnick, but for me, I'll take Mydland. His gravelly vocals on, "I will take you home," just melts my heart; it's lovely. He represents the best essence of the Dead...love...sadly jettisoned by drug abuse. Something's missing without Brent and Jerry in this world...we sure could use 'em. Our only reprieve is that we have so much to still listen to in the vaults...

They needed two keyboard players just to cover Brent’s role. After Jerry of coarse. Brent was and still is my favorite band member. I love when he gets snappy organ sounds going with what sounds like Leslie speakers… so badass.

[@ourworld215]

@@brettmorgen9728 so you never actually saw the grateful dead? OR if so then as part of a lets go get laid or find something fun not to dance within the hive trading sweat, the very air from our lungs, often road un-showered and little clothing. Sure one night at the fillmore auditorium for a rex benefit show I heard one guy talk about being there for devil. Why do I remember because it was so odd and out of place I wondered if he was a federal employee as Mountain Girl was on the other side of me and while I did not know many other attendants it was black tie event with lots of gift bags passed out. At every other dead show i was at I saw at least the Jesus bus with Joshua and a group of 12er's passing out their christian based printings. I never saw not heard of anyone holding a fighting reel with a devil worship passage on it like happened countless times with gospel texts. Your probably just ai bot troll, regardless what is sometimes referred to as the Christ conscience very close to if not the same thing at Dead shows felt by many as a group conscience. From this you could look at pagan history and say that some ritualistic behavior is to induce the group conscience, but that does not mean any attempt to seek awareness should be devil worship. Perhaps the closest group at a dead show would be the Nitrous mafia casting spells and creating illusions through the abstract complexities of logistical stratagem that rivals most modern attack forces, lacking in official capacity, using semi trucks to not just deliver but also as blocks for either side of the alley

This was my era, between 1981, thru 1993, that I attended hundreds of shows, Yes, I'm late bloomer as compared to those who saw the best of the best. This is my life/soundtrack. I just weep, uncontrollably when I watch this video: over and over again. The Morning Dew Is incredibly, uncontrollably exquisite. Then you look at the spectacular (great job camera crew!) NFA, and remember the years-long magnificent interplay between Jerry and Brent, and remember the insipid, jag-off comment Jerry made when Brent died, and then you think about how they effed over Betty Cantor-Jackson, and countless well intentioned vendors. Just take it all into consideration. Or don't, and just listen to the music play.

[@TK0_23_]

Don't listen to the snobs. The 80s were great. Just different. They were more concise, less fluid. That certainly was a departure from their roots. But we don't eat the roots. We eat the fruit. The 80s were great. They were still the Dead. Just a different version than the 60s and 70s. ( 234 shows from 79-88)

It was my first, it was magical. Greatest 7/4 in my 57 yrs. This is the best sounding of any of the vids I’ve seen How bout the thunder then rain at 56:52!! Perfection

[@NoURider]

Who are the grateful dead and why do they keep following me 🤔

[@NoURider]

​@@Eliolliewas the only kind you'd find there 😊

[@marybethunger624]

😱 OMG. I am a Deadhead since the 1960s and still enjoy listening everyday. LMAO becuz I forgot the short short shorts. 💕BOB💞 thank you for the flashback.

[@DonnHarris-d6g]

To hear this, to see Jerry Garcia at the absolute top of his game, to experience the wisdom and joy that the Grateful Dead bring to those who ask for a little bit of truth, who view life through a Grateful Dead lens of opportunity, chance, acceptance, and love, always love - is to be given a special gift. Brent was such a beautiful soul, and he was to be gone within a year, and we had six more with Jerry, but they gave us something eternal and - for me anyway - a way to live. How can you hear a line like "the ABCs we all must face to try and win a little grace" and not live a better life, and have the strength to stare down fools and their bullshit and say "not here buddy, not today?" They've had my back since 1969, and I live with gratitude for them 24/7.

[@JamesGiaimo-lt1cn]

You are on

[@Bunbeck-pf9iw]

Me too then I started to hitchhike to shows if they were closer enough because I’m from Maine who finally met all of them in 1980 on Mother’s Day ! But met Phil + Bobby in 1978 in Springfield Massachusetts plus ramrod put a Gratefuldead sticker on my jacket !

[@KarenCarson-dt3pl]

This Bertha was a phrasing masterpiece right from the start. No warm up necessary... tight but loose. It gave me a new appreciation for the tune❤

[@jandasalovich6469]

53 years old here in Minnesota. Good memories from my growing up in the 80’s. Many good memories. Love to you all.

[@alecsuelter1262]

MIDWEST IS BEST

[@hubertsumlin9697]

the difference in jerry's demeanor in '89 compared to say '83 is night and day. i love seeing him relatively clean and content. he exudes real joy in lots of shows from this era. just priceless and beautiful to see.

[@tonyaharmon1383]

Brent Years & Their Exchanges Are My Favorite of All!! RIP To All Who Left Before Us....

[@herbythechef7624]

Amen brother. 89 is a great jerry year. Filled with smiles

[@rockingranny5278]

Yes!!🤩

[@kevincaldwell9202]

You shoulda seen the smile back in the early 70's. Young, thin Jerry enjoying life to it's fullest

[@ricorobby65]

What a great show, went with my buddies Chris and Dan, went to Bethel, NY the next month to hang out at Yasgur's farm for Woodstock's 20th and capped off the summer seeing Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane at the NY State Fair and then my daughter was born the morning after. 1989, what a year!

[@turdferguson7112]

I was at the state fair for that show! Back when they had mostly good concerts. Tom Petty, Ziggy Marley, to name a couple more. Good days!

[@stevewilson3793]

Damn, guess you had to grow up after that summer off.

[@bartman4556]

For me....Brent singing on Women Are Smarter is the magic moment , Jerry so happy . Its all a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago.

[@warrenmeszaros9698]

Thanks again..god bless..

[@Nano0k]

To the angel who glided down the stairs with chimes or maybe bells and sprayed the back of my neck with a spine-tingling mist of cool water, sitting on the left aisle seat on Phil's side during the break, you made my first show even more memorable. And correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Rich Stadium seats 80,000 and there were over 100,000 people in there that day.

[@johnalonggood400]

Around 1989 The grateful Dead was so instrumental to my spiritual growth it's unbelievable. It was so intense to be it shows during the later 80s to me I was just flying. I was learning and growing more than I've ever done in my life! So grateful to my creator that I was able to live through that and experience that I wish I could be going to my next show with Jerry and all right now! 😊👍

[@mr.know-it-all.6864]

I was at the show and I cannot believe that it's been 33 years already.

[@theodorerinehart6400]

I was at this show and it was life changing! During looks like rain, it began to actually rain on us and it was only for a little while. Lots of fire works after the show and we had to jump into my bus to avoid the bottle rockets that were flying all around the lot... Thanks for the memory and supporting such a great cause!!!

[@nrthrnlght4lyfe]

Awesome I'm glad you shared that, I believe what you say is true. I was born on 7 4 89. Funny how 30 years and a day later Dead and Co played that Cold Rain and Snow and well the rest is history. I did not know that.

[@NoLightsTillBrooklyn]

Ok I’m just throwing this out for good measure, but the dead were classic for a non set list and if they think it’s gonna rain, they’ll slip into box of rain, or looks like rain or the weather report, just to spice shit up or enhance people’s trip. It’s all part of the fun. Glad you got to be a part of it….. they were some good times. Oh and re: bottle rockets…. That’s hilarious….. the golf course adjacent to alpine valley almost got burnt down one year because some dumbass tripping fool tipped over a coke bottle full of bottle rockets, next thing you know, it looked like Baghdad in the lot….. my buddy jumped a fence and put out the fire…. Unreal… only in a Dead lot does crazy shit like that happen. 🤪 Was not trying to rain on your parade (pun intended) but I’ve been to many a show over many years where it rains and they do that. It was still always amazing though. I’m not sure it changed my life but we had a hell of a good time!

[@jo044o]

Nothing on earth like a Grateful Dead concert !!!!!

[@james9252]

So true, one of the Best Bands Ever except for some Bob Marley and the Wailers, so glad I started listening 🎧 to the dead in about 90 when I was about 9 or ten then and I started with their first works back in the day, and worked my way through the rest, I had Every studio 🎙️ album made through the Columbia House 🏠 records buy one tape for a few bucks and get like ten more for a few pennies,ahhh I miss them days,

[@rickmcgough8048]

That's right! And there never will be again.

[@TheClownfight]

not only was I there, but this was my first Dead show! Needless to say it changed my life.

[@colinmcgregor6890]

saw two dead shows on 4th july 86 and 89 best concerts ever

[@jenlafferty6781]

My first show My hometown... Hooked.. Thank you Jerry ✌✌

[@randyhead6481]

Last Dead show I went to. It was amazing in so many ways.

[@Rave0851]

Jerry is my favorite (not NEC the best) musician of all-time! I am currently 69 and have been on the bus for over 51 yrs.

[@johnnym9602]

The Dead were like a fine wine only got better with time and with Bob doing The Dead Co stuff is like an aging distiller passing on his knowledge

[@thehonorcodenyc]

Truckin’…is my absolute favorite Dead show and favorite concert of all time. The instrumentation, vocals, pitch (for the most part), and videography are perfect. I’ve contemplated many experiences about my loved ones that have passed away and celebrated their lives by playing this event and I vow to have my family play Deal, Take You Home, and Morning Dew at my funeral. Peace and love to all.

[@pellefyrby]

Thank you my good man, woman! This is one of my fav dead shows. Altrough -85 to Brent died, they were really good, thight and loose… happy. So, again, thanks!

[@nelscleath9241]

The interplay between Jerry Garcia and Brent Midland on Not Fade Away is priceless!!! ❤

[@Travelin_Man]

You can tell Jerry was feeling this day when you watch him in Cold Rain and Snow, by his guitar playing, the little leg kicks around 17:10 and then the glasses push up like Clark Kent... you know he's about to turn into Superman..magical performance!✌️

[@voltaire6668]

For him, that's going wild!

[@cleech74]

There’s another nice little “Jerry’s rockin’ out” moment in Terrapin, and we get one if his elusive smiles to go along with it. 1:40:33

[@Andrewtalksalot]

Was at this show and several on this tour. Summer tours were different because of the stadiums. But were still a great time. My year’s touring with the dead were some of my most carefree and fun of my life.

[@tennesseejed884]

You got that right!

[@Bunbeck-pf9iw]

Jerry is still very magical even in death ! He will always b with us because these shows ! ❤️🐇🐰🌹🥰😘😍🩵👽🪐🛸🚀☄️💥⚡️🌹☠️💀😢🥲😥love so much forever !

We WILL get by

There's nothing better than seeing Jerry smile

[@carolsimpson4422]

I can't look at that Jerry smile without finding a great big grin on my face

[@freddalley9053]

This was the first and only time I was able to see them. I will never forget how awesome of a show it was!!!!! Stadium was packed and one of the people we were with stayed in the parking lot counting stones lol

[@kevingallagher2127]

Good Lord man....the Cold Rain and Snow 😳😲 what a SHOWCASE....hell, the whole friggin' show! I had forgotten just how sweet it was

[@thyland726]

This show is the perfect example of the Dead. A great dead show was like a movie of your life. The ups, the downs, the love, the disappointment, and the underlying feeling that no matter what IT WAS GOING TO BE OK! This isn't music. It's the embodiment of the human experience in the form of sound. This is the grateful dead and I'm blessed to listen to it. I love you all!!!!

[@jerrygarcia633]

Just like another gentleman said. On the porch with my wife, put this show on and her only words to me were......turn it up...loud.

[@gmm3579]

That’s a good woman!!

[@richardalmstead8803]

It’s great all the smiles from Jerry he was somewhat clean during this short period it’s when he is at his best!!! Still miss um

[@kevinnowak6680]

Keystone show. These are the quintessential versions of these songs for me. Hunter, Jerry, Brent and Barlow are alive again this moment. Power, grace, beauty and healing are all literally and concretely rolling out of this. Thank you for putting this out into the world right now. Wow.

So we'll said Good brother💚🌞

Love how the band is just there, Ykno !?? Just getting ready to play. No gimmicks no hyping up the crowd. No showboating. Awesome!!!

i’m 20 have been to 7 dead and co shows and love the dead. love is loving not fade away

[@mtthffmn]

Brent tapping the mic with a nod to Bobby at 1:13:41, Bobby nods and steps back as Brent takes the verse instead. Jerry, a tad surprised, turns towards Brent and gives a big smile. A few moments later Jerry is twirling, strutting, jamming out and just making the entire world smile bright back at him

[@guitarmandan9230]

Yup you can tell Jerry is buzzing off it, what a great voice Brent had.

[@gordonbrooks3081]

The only band that can stretch 3 songs into 5 hours & still maintain your attention

[@martyottmba]

The cut off shorts, the oriental rug.....Mydland belting out vocals.......it’s definitely an 1989-90 show ✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@NoLightsTillBrooklyn]

The shorts and rug are older than that but lol. That era tho around 87 and the Alpine shows were some badass Jerry at his best and great bootlegs were coveted till this day off that crazy weekend.

[@johnfarmer4099]

The Village People would be happy to have him join them dressed like that.

The Dead is way more than a legendary rock band. They are true bliss for those who come to groove!

They were Americana. They embody the spirit of freedom. They are eternal

They r the band that teaches us more than any teacher could about life ,love ,loyalty , friendship , + playing in a band for so long ! 💖💞🌟⚡️💥✨🕊️☠️💀🪽💞❤️☮️ they taught us peace among all of us Deadheads too !

Back in 1978 when I 1 st met Philly + Bobby Ramrod came into the bar + put a Gratefuldead sticker on my back of the jacket I was wearing + I still have it after all these years ! Love it so much because it had lots of meaning to it to me especially !

The energy got everyone fired up early. Suddenly many of us realized we needed to get a lot closer, it was a GA show. I covered a lot of ground and was cozy close by the end of Bertha's second verse.
