    My favorite Bob song, and I was in the bathroom when they played it. I'm not sure why I couldn't wait for Drums/Space but my friend who was there with me has never let me live that down...

    High Time
    The musical interplay between Branford and Bruce makes this High Time really special. Check out Bruce and Branford at the verse 'The Wheel's are Muddy...' and then 'Nothing's for Certain..." makes Jerry smile you can hear it. Bruce's playing is especially strong on this one. All contribute to some real tasteful harmonies, too...

    first of only two with Jerry. only clean, didn't even drink, show I ever had. was a birthday present from the best friends a 17yr old kid could ever have. never thought it would end. I still feel it every time I hear Cassidy. any time im gettin down, I listen to this whole show and the world is a brighter place again.wish I coulda made the wole run, but I had to sneak out to go, and make it back to clinton,ct before my ex hippy folks got up in the mornin. this show changed my whole view of the world and life in general. highgate95 couldnt compare. this one made me take my 4yr old boy on the "wave that flag" in 03.

After "Shakedown Street" came to an end, I looked at my friend Jay and at the same time we said "On" this was the one show you knew from minute one they were cooking tonight. In a documentary on Brandford Marsalas called "The Music Tells You" you see footage of Brandford talking with Jerry before the show. And the band walking toward the stage with Jerry saing to Brandford "Just come up now" . Me and my buddy were by the sound board and we saw a camera there too. So how about this one as a "View From The Vault" release?

I too attended this show, the last show while I was living on the east coast. I had to sit in the hallway to overcome a "chemical imbalance" but once I heard Shakedown Street begin, I knew I had to get to my seat. Needless to say, it was the best Grateful Dead show I have ever seen. I was lucky to be there. cheers

Just clicking around on aproximate dates, trying to match upshows I've seen. Got a direct hit here, by recognizing Shakedown opening and Branford Marsalis. Last time I ever saw the Dead, (started in ' 72). As a guitar player, I used to love listening to Garcia play. I felt that Branford took precious time away from Garcia with his seemingly endless soloing. I could see it was entertaining to all on stage, however, I was slightly less so. I realize you have to mix it up, however, enough with the sax, give me the guitar player.

We had great seats for this entire run, with the exception of this one night, where we were way up in the back, the "nosebleed seats" as people call them. We arrived very early and I'm not sure why, but went to the seats we sat the show before, 100's section, back along the tapers area, hung out in an empty row, and as MSG filled up, nobody came for the seats and we stayed there for the whole night. After it was over the guy in front of me said "I feel like I just witnessed something really special".. I replied you did...

I think that you all covered the bases. I almost didn't make the trip but I am and was so certain at the time that if I didn't make the short journey from Richfield I'd regreet it and I would have!!! and yes I too was standing on the moon, and she never did forgive me for not getting back here (Minnesota ) for her. "Oh well shes' been gone out of my life for more than a decade but this show will live on in my memory forever!

As I sit and watch this show on DVD, I know that anyone who wants a copy should get in touch with me, this show if fu*ing epic! Unfortunately, my copy seems to have recently vanished. I hope somewhere it magically re-appears. 09/2015cheers

I was fortunate to see Branford Marsalis at the Nassau Coliseum show on 03/29/1990 as shown in the current marketing of this performance and the Spring Tour. To see him with the Dead a year and a half later again was special.

I was in a few parking lots in the mid and late 1980s, but somehow never made it inside a GD show (though I did see the Jerry Garcia Band in the early 1980s). Until this one. On Sept. 10, 1991 I was at work with a good friend/coworker in Manhattan, and he got a call at like 5:00 from a friend of his saying he had 2 extra tickets for this show (some people had tickets for a few of the shows and had decided not to see this one, hence the extras). So my friend turned to me and said "Do you want to see the Dead tonight?" My reply: "Absolutely!!" The seats were really good; 5th or 6th row, right in front of center stage. I was blown away, as was everyone else that night. It was absolutely amazing. A few years later they were playing in Vermont (July 13, 1994), where I was living with my future wife. We were getting organized to move to San Francisco that summer, and decided to skip the VT show and just see them out in SF sometime soon. They'd be playing out there, we assumed, plenty. There was a show in the spring of 1995 in Mountain View, but we couldn't go. Then Jerry passed that summer. I went to the memorial service in Golden Gate Park and couldn't stop crying.
