CSN 23 OR SO SONGS, DAVID CROSBY 6 OR SO SOLOS, THE BOYS LIKE 20 OR SO. BEST SHOW AND LAST I ATTENDED. This guy puddled me and 10hrs back to Ct. peaking face the whole way back only to be pulled over by a NY state cop. He walked up and asked,"ya know how fast you were going?" to my friend. I'm giggling like a madman with pie plate eyes! My friend says, I dunno 100,110?" Cop says,"I wanna go home to my wife,he needs to be code 53d, or whatever, and I bet this vehicle would cause a lot of problems for yall if I searched it" " Get home safe boys and get him help! GOOD TIMES GOOD TIMES! So stoked I found this video. Whoever posted it, thank you so much. Keep em comin!!!!!
This was my 3rd show at the ripe age of 15 - I can still remember the heat rising off the pavement in the lot, the smells in the air.... the band was HOT this night and the show speaks for itself. The smooth drop into Scarlet is still one of my all time fav GD moments..... 15 years old!!
I worked this show for an ambulance co and snuck back stage and met jerry and Bob and the band. Watched jerry order pork chops, green beans and rice for dinner it was the highlight of my life
@@JoshuaMantis IMHO, the world changed for the worse after this show. It was only my 2nd show after seeing the famous Knickerbocker show in March 1990, and my last time seeing Brent. Brent died 10 days later, then in another week or so Saddam invaded Iraq and we are living with the aftermath of that to this day. 7-16-90 was a beautiful day in Upstate NY and my good friend and I drove from Ithaca NY over to Buffalo to see this show, and it turned out to be an outstanding performance. And I'm sad to say that my friend died about 2 weeks ago, so listening to this is a bittersweet experience. I'm glad that it happened but I'm sad that it had to end.
Tim Gennocro i wish i could hav went to this show !! i live 1 mile from the bills stadium ! And every time i see it , i think about how many times they rocked it !!👍🔥
C,S,N were amazing! I sat a little closer, only up on the second deck; up close to the lip. Someone was blowing bubbles...I saw the whole stadium through one before it popped close to my eye. My companion and I made it down to the stadium floor for the second set...loved the smell. Got complemented on my tie-dye, heard a cry for help and helped the woman exit the the floor; which helped me focus. Played Hawkwind's In Search of Space in the parking lot after....eating was too weird...didn't sleep that night. Changed my life.
I jumped on the bus in 88, and followed them up and down the East Coast until the end. This is one of my personal favorite shows that I had the pleasure of attending. Loose Lucy was a nice treat, but I will never forget my buddy's face when they played the first few chords of High Time. RIP Damon - Miss you tons man Great show - great vibe - Long Live THE GRATEFUL DEAD
Out of 77 or so Grateful Dead shows I attended, I will always rank this as my favorite. There are many reasons as to why, but my top reason is the music! This show Rocked.
That's great! This was my 2nd show after I saw the famous Knickerbocker Arena show in March of that year as my first. I was very lucky to be blessed with these 2 as my intro to Dead concerts. It was a beautiful day in Upstate NY and I drove up and over from Ithaca NY with a few friends. One of them was my old friend Dave who passed away about a week ago, so I feel melancholy listening to these memories.
Hey now!!!! Like I have comment before!! Can't go one single day without my favorite band!!! How many of you feel the same??? My beautiful deadhead family!!! im sure I have burned one with many of you on here!!! At one of many many shows!! I had to look up some of my old ticket stubs, I saved mine!!! Because so many years have passed now. Thank you, for letting us re live the beautiful experience once more !! Peace n LOve
That was in 1988 that I stopped going , then in 1990 I went to Burlington , got pushed up against the stage , I was all most there ! Getting backstage but no I got pulled up by a man ,the next thing I remember is being in a hospital tent ! Missed the whole show because something abnormal was in my way , I never saw Steve there ! I never saw anyone again only now I can c them on here ! Thank u very much !
I tripped so hard I missed half the show. Fell asleep peaking against the fence all the way back. My only Dead show. Great memory. So glad to be finally able to watch it all these years later! What a spectacular performance by Brent for Women are Smarter. Just phenomenal 🤟😎
I literary threw my leather shoes in a fire pit following this show..."a pile of smoking leather..." and hitchhiked home to NH barefoot...what great trip it was.... and I got to see the last Blow Away... RIP Brent
saddest part about this show?! exactly 10 days later Brent Mydland OD's and never gets to jam that Hammond B-3 again. What a waste and Jerry same thing. We should still have them rockin like the rest of the band. But they lived their life their way. Thanks for the music boys. i will always cherish what you left behind.
+Douglas Fernandez I snuck down onto the floor, got over by brent, at one point, had an odd feeling when I saw him...10 days later, I knew what I had sensed.
Douglas Fernandez Yeah, you're right, odd vibe was around Brent that summer. I remember at Deer Creek an extra weird organ solo with sorta maniacal laughter tones thrown in...
10 days later GD took a blow they never recovered from,Jerry or not,Garcia was totally affected musically by Brents death&Brent was getting more songs.they were rolling again.
Agreed I saw 3 Rivers Stadium a few days before and Brent looked bad, his head was down and he dis not sing a single lead that night. Fast forward to the savage emotional purge and glazed look in his eye during his Gimme Some Loving ad lib and it was clear the roller coaster would eventually crash. I don't think he ever really got over the split with his wife and kids and hittin' the junk was his escape
This was my first Dead show ever! went on from here to see 25-30 more shows but what a pleasure to have seen Brent Mydland perform, so much energy and style! shaped the future and it's been bright.
'83 -'95 for me including this one and looking back now I just can't believe how incredibly lucky I was to have this in my life. Voodoonola you are a blessing on us for capturing and preserving theae memories for us
Oh my goodness, they just never fail to sail. And Bobby diving back into Sugar Maggie, lordy, lordy, tighter than them-there shorts. Mercy... Increddddibbble show. So nice to see a video of it. Thanks so much. Lucky to all of you who saw it in 3-D... (~}:D Wish I'd made some Eastern shows... So blessed whatever taste we got.
my first outdoor Dead show of what would be many many to come, did not fully grasp how amazing Brent was till he left us all too soon, damn he-ron will suck up the best of them, this show takes me back to university at buffalo and summer tours......
I was there! CSN opened and really got the stadium rockin , then..... THIS!!!! Best show of the tour. It was like a 1978 concert..... Thanks for putting this out there guys , I can remember this whole day vividly.
my friend and i barreled into the stadium after having to take a detour through NYC after Foxboro show. We drove like mad women in my mom's Olds and met up with friends in the seats just into CSN's first song. Then we couldn't find our car LOL it was a fantastic show. fantastic time with friends. showered next day on the Maid of the Mist!
I was actually at this show because this was one of the nights i enjoyed a show sober. I was wingman or guide forvmy bestie at that time. I gave him 3 hits of B-52's and they made him start giving his money away. I kept gettingbit back luckily. Unfortunately so mb e people would've gladly taken a much needed financial respite. I remember the waves of peolle dancing in unison...yeah deadheads had rythm especially the way phil and drums were micd and playing this tour. I remembervthe half step and blow away stood out as well as a great hiab opener that hax a nice cadence ending with Bob's vocals rocking out. Yeah brent shined in this show. I remember people crashing the gate and flooding an already jam packed 80 thousand people or so. I loved how well phils bass was jacked in for this tour...did i say that already...thats cuz he drove so many songs sonically. Loooooove this show and did i say i was there baby??!!
When Brent died so did The Grateful Dead. They never ever recovered from this unimaginable loss. This show was the end of my 10yr.__147 show journey with them. I gave away my tickets for MSG and Boston.
So sorry Robert , I did get to hang with Brent for awhile ,so good to know that now after he passed our way ! He & Jerry r hanging around as ghost watching everything still ,b a believer !
Thanks for this !!! Brings a tear to my eyes.....R.I.P. Brent. Every time I see one of your videos I remember all the good times, great people....and the great music from 1970 on to the present....still gives me chills. Thanks again !!!
I remember there was a drastic weed shortage at this time. we met an usher named Louis at this show who pointed out a guy selling joints. Thank you Louis. The night before this show Bruce Hornsby had played at a club in RI. We left that show and drove to Buff. And of course the Hornsby show was the day after the Dead in Foxboro. a great 3 day run of live music. A very fun period. Thank you for a real good time.
As an old head that did the 89--94 east coast tours, the 90's shows were above and beyond. This one particularly stands out. Jerry really had some amazing energy.
Brent almost ALWAYS brought the BEST out of Jerry...and Vice Versa!...God I miss those days!...I think I'd give up the rest of my life in exchange for another run from say, 85' to 95' my friends...I think that's a great deal...even though I have the HIGHEST respect for Bobby, Bill, and Mickey, for keeping the music going, it just isn't the same without The Silvered Haired Angel and Brent...they left the beautiful music but took the magic with them...thank you guys(all of the Dead) for making my life so much better than it would've been...Happy Holidays All...stay Grateful...✌💀💨🎸🕯🍄🎙🌹🇺🇸🎶
These get better with age. Thank you Voodoo. It is great to see Jerry at later best. Looking good and obviously feeling good too. Saw 55 shows with Jerry. This brings back that unmistakable energy that kept us all coming back. Just. Wow. Enjoyin the Ride. We certainly were.
A magnificent show, and it was my 2nd one after seeing the famous Knickerbocker show in March 1990 as my first. Say what you will about Hell in a Bucket as a song, Bob has good energy here, Jerry looks happy, Brent is tickling the ivories, and don't get me started on Phil during this version!
my first was rfk right before this, i got one with brent, still vinnie gave his best, theres a liquid vibrational chemistry here impossible to rendish, Thank You Jerry. Thank You Brent.
I was 4th or 5th row between Jerry and Brent at RFK, and Brent looked at me and smiled cuz we just linked up on the wave of his fire! That show was Fyah!
yes, indeedy...the fellas caught lighting in a long neck bottle on this tour, a few times! God, how I miss the music and the fun...all I can say is "Boys, Thank You! for a real good time "
Good, actually great, guitarist Jerry was he was in no way a top five rock guitarist. He's was not Jimmy Page, nor even Randy Rhoads. Instead, Garce belongs squarely in the center of the David Gilmore, Lindsay Buckingham crowd ... no shame there.
Clapton thought Prince was a better guitar player than him. Maybe true. Garcia...eh. I don't put him in the same category as any of the others. He's my favorite guitarist.
Two friends and I did this whole summer tour in a 62 Galaxie 500! It was awesome altho we had 3 days of car trouble in D.C. and missed Foxboro and the double E: Last Time Bid U G'nite. On a powerful airplane paper at this show and the High Time melts glass! What a ferocious Sugar Mag>Scarlet too!!
My last Brent show, but I was fortunate to have been able to see him right before he left us. Foxboro the week before was a stellar show as well. It was a bummer, but I was lucky to have jumped on the bus in 82, and partake in the magic. A lot of people never got to see Brent and Jerry. I’m one of the lucky (other) ones.
I got the privilege of enjoying this entire tourn The East coast swing of this tour was mind splitting,but out of control with up to 100,000 people in the lots without tickets. Dear Creek was as tight as they get. Then it all spun out at Tinley Park. The man was everywhere, but the boys played thru for the last of Brent’s three. His eyes were literally spinning in opposite directions. You could almost see it coming. The 89 tour was the tightest they had been since ‘77! Thanks for posting it. Beautiful and depressing combined. Danced my ass off
i was not far from the stage with my friend Karen, we heard the intro cords and looked at each other..."No Way" was all we could say...this was BEAUTIFUL!!!
always had fun in Buffalo.. this show was good ole fun..setlist unrelenting bliss..this is how I will always keep the boys in my head and heart..thank you good old grateful dead..and too think csn opened..lol
it felt sort of like a punch in the gut. funny, I had low expectations because i had already seen other bands from the sixties that were totally washed up and I was mostly hooked on their early stuff. I knew they wouldn't sound like anthem of the sun or europe 72 but it was a great concert. Now I place spring and summer '90 both somewhere in the top ten best tours since the 60's.
In my collection, this "tape" was one of those which always stood out and got repeated listenings, even more than the Louisville and Deer Creek shows I saw that summer... This vid shows why! Sometimes, I still can't believe how excited I get watching that fat man rock on stage!
This was The show of the summer, Deer Creek was pretty good, but Buffalo was better. Anyone who raves about Deer Creek has obviously never been to Alpine. Alpine was Mecca.
Thank you for posting this. I'm always amazed how people can take a hand held recording and sync it to a soundboard. You just know there's so much more out there.
Can’t believe I missed this❤️❤️ Damn I miss Brent, I miss Jerry 😞 I’m so glad so that you are here voodoo bringing so much love light & music to my life. 💋
If the thunder don't get you than the lightning will... this and the last couple tours were insane fun....watching this makes me happy I was part of this Grate family.. those days are far gone but engraved in my soul..Brent made my blood rise up and had me on 🔥and Jerry too...and Phil got to sing before Brent made it clear he needed some lovin🙏🏽rip
My last day with Brent. Sad. Much better show than the setlist might make you think. Sugar - Scarlet - Women, three songs about the ladies, plus Lucy in set 1. I was bumming from girlfriend problems at this gig and felt like the band was either trying to make me feel better or making fun of me or both.
maybe some of the downvotes are about video quality, but to still be able to see *any* of this pre-internet magic (and admittedly videos lack *a lot* in actually being there) in 2019 is pure gold
I had just graduated college and by this time had already seen over 50 shows. I was traveling around the United States with two buddies and remember exactly where I was when I heard Brent had died. It was on a lonely stretch of Texas highway in the middle of nowhere and I remember the guy on the radio said famous California musician dies and before he finish the sentence I knew it was Brent. Funny how we connect to that damn bandLittle did I know four months later I’d be on tour in Europe and actually hanging out with Bruce Hornsby in a coffee shop in Amsterdam night before his first show. He asked me how Vince played in Stockholm. I told him he could only play better! He laughed his ass off.
Neither one of them sang on key but they could get away with it because their music was so amazing that it didn't matter. I could listen to them for hours. They could really jam. The audio was awesome on this video.
I remember being at this show. A group of friends drove 3 VW busses from Lake George, NY. Great experience. My friends band wrote a song about going to shows inspired by this show. Cool drum circle in the parking lot. Sure miss those days. For me it was the best show experience. (~):-}
Love seeing Jerry, Bobby, and Brent all in the same frame singing women smarter,,,lmao fvckin-a, too good, and funny. Ship Of Fools sail away from me. Thanks Jerry the boys, and V-nola.. "I'd give anything just to be with you " -- Bob Dylan
My friends Kevin, Mike and shuffled up to Buffalo from Columbus Ohio, enjoyed CSN. First set we were up front, second set we made it to the back to watch the show. Camped in a 7-11 parking lot with rocks the size of boulders.
Stills was taking photos of the crowd from the stage, probably the last time they played for that many people. we were way up front but it was so tight packed we left for higher ground before the Dead came on it was nuts. People couldnt move, everyone was leaning on the person in front of them it was so packed .. but what a great time wow... awesome lot and overnight parking in the fields all around...
Excellent show. Love the guys. I mostly listen to '60s/'70s stuff. Don't care much for early Brent era, but this stuff rips. These shows are a goldmine. I will say, I prefer the studio versions of "Blow Away," which is more aggressive and jumps in instead of a laid back jam in, and "Loose Lucy," which is an all time favorite Phil groove of mine. The live versions dont match up, imho. It's still the boys and I'll take it. And I'm glad they didn't put "Fire" in "Begonias" like I've always heard. Listened all the way through (even "Drums" and "Space"). Been a weird night.
Yet another example of why I wish I'd caught some Brent-era shows. I'm just a few years too young. Missed him by 3 years. Luckily I caught some great, magical shows from '92-'95(though admittedly, they were scarce that last year+1/2). I learned to tolerate Vince and appreciate his enthusiasm. That said, Voodoo is a Prince for synching and uploading all of this great stuff! Love it!
@@janeseamore1370 Had hit all 6 Boston shows in '91 & '93. Then hit 3 of 6 in '94. Unfortunately my girlfriend at the time wouldn't let us go to 10/1/94!!! Her friend had a wedding that afternoon. From what she already told me I knew it wasn't a quality marriage, (shallow & abusive). I told her we could make the afternoon wedding & still make the show. She said no, we had to hang out for the post ceremony hotel party. I asked about going for just the 2nd set? Nope! Sure enough the hotel party sucked as we just drank a couple beers with friends in the room and went to sleep. I couldn't believe the dream set list people told me about when I went the next night!!! Sure enough that couple soon got divorced and 20 years later that show is released in the 30 circles around the sun box set as the best show of '94! Can you tell I'm still a bit ticked off having missed that one! I caught a lot of great ones before that though and I'm still friends with that ex.
@@edm781 women! such difficult things to deal with! from a woman. I know. I hate going to weddings--- I ever get a time machine will come back for you : )
Ed M lol dude tell us your life story.. abusive marriage, post ceremony hotel party 😂😂hahahaa bro you’re classic.. you go into RU-vid dead video comments hall of fame👊🏼👍🏼🎃💀🎃💀🎃R.I.P. Jerry💀🇺🇸🤙🏼
The C,S,&N set that opened was fantastic as well ! Remember the balloons ? And the Unbroken Chain passed around the whole stadium at break ? Can't find a ride like that no more !
@@mrmojorose777 , It was an unbroken chain of balloons that got carefully passed , row by row , extending from the bottom of the seats to the top of the nose-bleed seats , all the way around the stadium . Ask someone who was there before you make fun .
My strongest memory of the CSN set was Crosby commenting to the crowd "so, this is what a Grateful Dead crowd looks like!". We went nuts! It was a nice warm moment, knowing how long Croz and the Dead go back. SO... one would assume he knows the nature of Deadheads... that we go to show to show. I went to several shows that Spring (Edie Brickell opened several nights, also). Anyhow, I am seeing again the next night in another city... as about 50K of us likely were). Next night, Croz makes the exact same quip... verbatim. Dude, you can't recycle stage patter and banter every night to a crowd that goes to see every night. Obviously, that is a small beef to have. Those shows were amazing! Great set lists, great energy from the band, and getting a free set from CSN? You just can't beat that.
@@TheClownfight Santana did the exact same sets too. Made me lose respect for him. Pretty much any band will know the crowd will have a bunch of the same people. When Steve Miller opened in Vegas he played different sets.
my first of 56. great Let it Grow, Truckin'->jam, High Time, Sugar->Scarlet. then off to Deer Creek,wow. poor Brent's jaw was jiggling side to side like crazy while not being able to open his eyes...fuckin' speedballs. WALSTIB!
I was at a lot of shows being a friend backstage all the time watching listening & loving it so much when Jerry was gone so was I it was to painful for me
The sound is ridiculously good..... Word to the cameraman and his setup. This Wharf Rat is top notch. Tiger is lit. Phil is tuned in. Living for Jerry this whole show ⚡️🌹⚡️ #NFA
