This show was fun. God, I was 20. Today Phil turns 73, so that makes me.... FUCKING OLD

[@Gr8ful2588]

Awesome fricken show, I was there on the third row. We sang happy birthday to Phil at the start of the second set. Was the best dead show I ever attended. Thanks for posting!

Jerry's Baby Blue, Bobby's Queen Jane and Phil'sTom Thumb's Blues- 3 perfect Dylan covers

[@vincentt.5040]

What about Weir's Desolation Row, Garcia's She Belongs to Me

His best friend the drummer couldn't even tell him what he dropped. Excellent ad lib by Phil. Outstanding Tom Thumb's blues! Thanks for the post, PanamaRed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHIL!

[@Dloomis494]

And thanks to you, Larry. When security did their sweep(looking for smokers not videotapers, I suppose) during the Black-throated Wind, I nearly and truly lost it. But didn't. Thanks again, all these years later.

Special thanks to Larry G of Deadstein for his inspiration and for keeping his eyes open. The yellow-coats never had a chance.

[@lgindoffchannel]

I forget the incident but I can imagine it. So much blur if you know what I mean. It's still a blessing that you got whatever videos you got so in whatever aspect I helped out I'm glad I did. Let's get together soon.

[@TomGruber]

Man. Oh man. They'd surely make a mess out of you...

[@PinkFloydrulez]

this song feels the way a london fog smells

[@lgindoffchannel]

Come to think of it, these were the shows that I first met Sarah, thanks to Larry Menaker, and picked her up at Metropark in NJ and drove her down to Landover. My brother got married the next week and I had to miss the 3-24-90 Albany show due to his wedding. It's all coming back, security guards during the black throated wind. Are you saying you kept rolling during the intrusion?

[@moscowcharlie1]

Check out Medicine Head's version; I shall not blaspheme.

[@brucekamin506]

What happened to Heineken?

[@subsubsubsub5413]

The outcome makes the hair on my neck shimy

[@rednoise64]

lol seems to be the way things roll. was this before or afrer they did cats - you remember ?

[@mightylittle729]

They got some hungry creatures there, they'll surely make a mess out of you
