someone the other day asked what the greatest thing about america was....i quickly replied, "the grateful dead". people just stared at me and i smiled

I was there, it was a very beautiful cool night. One of the most laid back shows I saw. I remember thinking it was rare it to see Jerry in a sweater. I recall a few of my friends being annoyed by Bobby's pink guitar. I sat in the stands for the first set. Then my girlfriend and I made are way to the front and spent the second set very near the stage close to Jerry. It was I nearest I ever saw him play and was mesmerized. As the show ended the band accompanied by Bill Graham casually wandered of stage and walked for a minute or two with the general crowd exiting the theater before heading to a backstage area. I was right behind them and was amazed at how relaxed and oblivious they seemed of being among the crowd with no security or entourage at all. For a few moments I felt as if I was with them and that I had reached the center of this beautiful phenomenon. I sensed then just how damn laid back and cool those guys where and how they emanated kindness, humor and goodwill. I was back two weeks later to see the Jerry Garcia Band. I was 20 years old, great times!

I don't know if I'm going thru a mid life crisis or something, but lately it's been so hard to watch these amazing shows without getting unusually emotional...anyone else missing the Silvered Haired Angel a lot more lately?...and missing Brent EVERY DAY my fellow Heads!!...I absolutely love EVERYTHING The Dead has EVER done, but in my opinion, the Brent era was the greatest time for the band...Jerry was so happy, and absolutely fed off of Brent's energy...I am pleading with anyone out there......please invent a Time Machine?...stay Grateful all and many many years of great health!...✌💀💨🍄🎵

I AM A ONE TIME ESCAPEE OF SOUTHERSTEAN LOUISIANA ST. HOSPITAL-- AND I APPROVE OF THIS MUSIC.

It's so cool when you have a pretty good soundboard tape on for 25 years that You have periodically listened to over 100 times and then to see actual video of the show. It shatters the image that's been in your mind's eye and replaces it with an even cooler picture of late 80's GD show reality. The quality of the whole recording is so good. Thank you much to the dude that shares these amazing full show videos!

i loved being reminded of how good they could sound in late 80s-early 90s

I peeked at the Greek ALL 3 of those awesome shows in late August of 89 -The spiritual experience I had was amazing it will never be forgotten !

I am so happy to love all eras/epochs of the grateful dead. Some more than others of course, but it a thing where I'd rather have 1994 with Garcia than 2013 without him. It's like life, some you win some you lose.. I'd hate it if I only liked 1970-72 or nothing after 1978. They were a work in progress always . Also I think there is just as much sadness involved with the GD as there is joy. But isn't the world that much brighter having known this bullshit?? They reflected something intangible about life in the music and scene. Like , a universal unspoken truth made more sense with them around

I can not imagine my life,my world,without ,the insperation....of THE GRATEFUL DEAD! I FEEL BLESSED!

I always loved the Greek Theater, it sounded so good. I've always thought of this place as the holy ground for the Dead, I'm sure others would disagree, but my circle of friends always thought so too. I was at this show, remember it well.

Its so weird and wonderful to just be casually cruising through youtube and run across a show I attended so long ago... Wow.

I still get the chills when the crowd sings Not Fade Away

I was there too--15 years old and mind blown. I never went home.

I was there! This was I believe my 2nd Dead show ever. We were high on the grass (the lawn!) and I remember it was so steep I felt like I kept sliding down the whole show. We slept in Golden Gate Park that night. Probably wouldn't ever do that again

Hi there again , I was listening to Dead+ Co.but changed back to this ! Can’t help myself , I just love them more then I love myself !

So good ! thank you greatly for this beautiful show so nice !

They surely did save lots of us loss souls ! I love them for that but their music is another thing for us lost people !

Jerry is very sober and sharp in this film. Great to see. It shows why 1989 is quite respectable.

This is hot stuff and Jerry looks good here. They were ripping it up from '88 through '90 and hit another good stretch in '93. What an awesome set list. Miss you Jerry & Brent. Those were the days. Going to be in Chicago for one last go-round and looking forward to being with this tribe one more time…...

Yes, it really is a laid back show. Clear and clean. Jerry is very present. It's not "crackling" or a big breathing monster sounding show but fine and good ol GD. Sweet. Frost shows would be like this too. These summer home shows were so relaxed for the band and we all just did our thing together. No hype, no stress. The Winter Oakland shows would be the ones that really dug in these years. Rowing the ship through heavy seas, working the machinery of the universe. This is light wind calm seas easy sailing.
