Maggie's farm, every member smiles so big you can see they are having a jam blast playing together. I miss these days, my favorite era for the dead, 1988 - 1993
I was there as well. I was usually on the floor, where I and a sea of heads danced. Who doesn't miss those General Admission days....!? Camping out to get tickets...standing in line a day or 2 before the shows to be one of the 1st ones on the field.❤ I always enjoyed shows at RFK! The 80's through the early 90's was my stretch of tours/shows. I miss seeing the Jerry Garcia Band jam at Merriweather Post Pavillion, Wolf Trapp National Farm Park, and Bull Run National Park amongst other great venues! There were incredible moments of bluegrass magic that I will never forget. ❤ Good people, good music, good friends, good vibes, good medicine for the soul😉...leaving the shows with a heart full of love. ❤
My first show! Life changing experience and grateful for the opportunity at 16 years old. Started in upper deck and jumped the barrier to the lawn/floor around second set. Made it to the front (Jerry side) and just stood in awe for hours at the world of wonder happening around me. Beautiful day that has given me a lifetime of joy and inspiration. Thank you, Grateful Dead!
Reading your post, I had to laugh. You and I were both 16 and jumped the barrier to get onto the field. That was my very first concert. Me and the girl I was with were a stones throw from the stage. Since then, I've been to a ton of concerts, but nothing compares to seeing The Grateful Dead. The people, the music, that's a culture of its own. What a great night!
I was at this show and it was a real good one , at one point during the second set I was at the complete opposite end of the stadium from where the stage was set up, I was up in the middle upper rows and I remember being able to hear every single note perfectly, every plink of the piano, every tap on the snare, the rumbling bass, every little detail was dialed in perfectly ,
I was there too bro and I remember how perfect the sound was. I saw 6 shows at the Boston Garden and it took till the 5th show to really nail it. They figured it out fast in RFK and out of 50+ shows this ranks up to one of my fave shows! 👍☺️
That's how I feel with Row Jimmy, it has become one of my top 5 favorite Dead songs. And to know that it was also one of Jerry's favorites to play, it fills my heart with joy every time I hear it.
I was at thsi show, and it was spectacular. I was on the second deck, about halfway back, stage right, just off-center. The sound quality was amazing--it wasn't like being at a big stadium show at all--it sounded like I was in a small venue, with every note, every little sound, coming through clear and sweet. Such a great band, with one of the most accurate sound systems in the business. The feeling REALLY came through...
Yeah, but I don't advise too many concerts at the Fillmore East in the front rows. Ask me how I know, but *speak up* when you ask. Fortunately this won't be an issue for anyone reading this unless you can lay your hands on a time machine that can reach back to the 1960s...

I thought they played a Beatles song as well that Vince sang. A lot of the shows were blurry. I remember people buying cigs from vendors....crazy times. :)
As George Harrison sung my guitar gently weeps over u or cry’s , which ever ? I know Jerry can make his guitar cry as he does over a certain few songs that I also do too ! Shine on ur love light on me 🐰🐇🪽🕊️💔💞❤️🔥💝💘🫥😶🌫️I’m gone all the way !

I was at Ft. Eutiss,Va and had just finished a 2 week NBC course. I knew they where gping to bevin town so when class was over around noon i drove up for the show. Didnt have a ticket but found a miracle and i was in. One of the first shows that Bruce played with the band and the first time i saw Bruce with the band. One of the better shows that year. Had a great time. It was one of my last shows because my daughter wss born March of 92. It wouldnt be untill 2011 or 2012 until i saw Dead & Co. About a 21 year gap. Saw Bobby and company this year in Charlotte to say fare ther well after seeing and following the band from 1976 - 2023. I listen to them every day. Thsnks for the memories and all the good times some of the best times and years of my life
Mine as well brother, i turned 16 at 1201 the 15th what a way to spend the day! The best sweet 16...."wanna buy a ship of fools" and the parking lot at rfk sucked although boston garden was no picnic but w a 65lb tank of hippy crack who cares!
I was there. Love it. There’s no band that’s gonna fill stadiums again like the Grateful Dead did. They became a driving force with undying loyalty and love from the fans. I just can’t see another band commanding this level of dedication
As someone who never got to see the OG dead but has listened to hundreds of shows I would say this is one of my all time favorites. For me 89-91 is the absolute best. I love it all tho.
33 years ago yesterday I was at this show. One of my most treasured memories. 2:06:42. IMO, the hottest ever Stella Blue. The lick at 2:12:41 is pure Jerry bittersweet joy.
as a german, let me tell you how lucky you are to have had a band like this in the US.... when they did their first european tour i had not discovered them...that happened years later when they were invited by a progressive german music tv channel to play a night long live concert .... man it blew me away... then when they came for their second european tour with only four concerts in germany i had to drive two and three hours to get to their concerts in hamburg and berlin..... and man was it worth it!!!!!! would do it again anyday if it was possible... RIP guys you ve done so much for us..... oh here comes a tear can it be?
My first and only Dead show. I liked them okay but my friends were definitely waaaay into them. I appreciated Phil as I was (still an) a bass player. Thought his jamming was just on a higher plane. Jerry was 47 years old here. He looks 71. 😮
All the years combined, they MELT into a dream!! Great show! I seen 49 Grateful Dead shows! This was a great tour! Luv u all!! Thanks everyone! ✌🤗🎼🎸🎹🎶The music never stops! ⚡💀🥀🦅🇺🇸

I came up from the Charlotte shows and camped in the Virginia hills with other heads. Met my Jersey Friend at Union Station in DC and to the show. RFK had many faces, from impoverished America to untouched woods and creeks. Anyway, show was a winner. perfect weather. 68 degrees. slept out on the roadside on someones land. thanks!
Was at this show Old man now, Hell Old man back then All things considered....just glad to be here and listening to that Good Ol’ Grateful Dead What a long strange trip it’s been But I’m still Rocking, slow down th’ Bastards’ll catch ya! ☠️👍☠️

I was there! To watch it 40+ years later blows my mind! There was barely an internet back then, let alone think that you could see this. Thanks for posting this and making my day! 👍❤️
I DO BELIEVE THIS IS THE MOMENT EVERYTHING CHANGED FOREVER , 17 YEARS OLD ON THE RUN HITTING THE EAST COAST FOR THE FIRST TIME FROM CALIFORNIA, WHEW WE ALL SNUCK IN THAT NIGHT 🌙 🎶 ♥ ❤ 😅
This was a fantastic show. The seats were bouncing at least a foot while Lovelight was playing from all the dancing. I thought the stadium would collapse!
Love when that happens. Happens a lot at Madison Square and in Pittsburgh civic. They have suspended from ceiling, sections. The whole thing gets bouncing
I remember watching them film this concert back in 91 , I was just 17 scratching my head wondering how I could get a vhs tape of this show, and thirty years later I am giving my neighbors a grateful dead exorcism via Harmen 🙏 Karden speakers...Awesomeness...
Five things I love that Bruce Hornsby is randomly there jamming out on accordion, and he does really a great job with the fills I love that he has the biggest grin on his face, you can tell he's so jazzed to be there - he's a very humble man, and an incredible pianist. I love Bobby's shorts and loafer combo, it's absolutely dropped dead hilarious every time It's really funny that Jerry's hair matches The smiling skeleton and lay on his guitar I don't know what number 5 was originally, and I can't make anything else up
I saw a lot of Grateful Dead concerts between 1984-95, and this stands out as one of the very best ones. On an oppressively hot muggy June night DC, the boys exploded. First time Help on the Way/Slipknot and Dark Star were played in the same show, with absolutely everyone on-stage SMOKING. Too many highlights and memories. Happy 30 year anniversary to this beast!
This was the only concert I saw Jerry. I remember his hair blowing. I drove my friends home on 495 (some in the back of a red pick up truck) after the show. I was in the left lane, driving 45 at times. Didn’t get pulled over and no one died. I am listening to the show right now on You Tube. So weird. I’m sure I was in the parking lot swilling beers at a rapid pace. I was 17 🌹
It’s been all over now Baby Blue for to long for my self to take much more of this ! I’m just a broken down palace ! 💔💞❤️🔥🥵😢😉🥶🤯🤬😩☹️😞🐰🐇🪽🕊️🫥😶🌫️im fading away my love !
Me neither, I was too young unfortunately. I was 10 when Jerry died and I only vaguely knew who he was because of my mom talking about him. She wasn’t a deadhead or else maybe I’d have been a fan sooner.
Greatness, Vince and Bruce filled some shoes. On their own terms and nailed it. Great show.lets keep the love and peace going people. We can all relive through these vids and comments.we,all see each other one day anyway. Out there somewhere. Maybe the lost sailor will guide us to the dark star. Peace
I was there! Loved all those RFK shows ... but especially the rain show the year before this one (7.12.90), which is easily in the top 5 of all the many shows I went to, and, sadly, the last time I saw Brent.
I used to love the Bruce days! He had this connection with Jerry and was a really nice fit at the time. Even Vince, very special musician and highly overlooked. The double keys added that extra something special. I miss the good old grateful dead days. Haven't been since Jerry and Vince passed, not the biggest John fan, but Jeff and Otiel obviously kick ass. Completely different vibe with completely different type of crowd now. I got my tapes and memories and I'm grateful for that...
@@Surge_LaChance Of course it's changed. Everything has. Used to see AT LEAST one naked guy running around in the parking lot at every show back then. Now people won't go without their masks. LOL!!! It's changed A LOT!!!
The best feature on Two From the Vault DVD was/is the 7/12/ 90 RFK bonus video footage from the summer before. Box > Victim > Foolish > Dark Star. The audience and the band connection is at it's peak. Healy on the loose and the rain make for a special second set opener. Phil honors the moment w/ the Box opener. Brent......gone 2 weeks later. Damn. I had 7 copies (only 5 now) of that specific Two From the Vault DVD just for the 7/12/90 filler only so I never do not have that video of pre-set 2 from 7/12/90 in my hands. There were very few moments like that ever seen again by the band. Ever. It is pure gold.
arguably my favorite Stella outro jam ever, (along with 4-4-88), but it would have been so nice to see more of Jerry's fretwork rather than yet another psychedelic wavy screened rotating planet montage during the crux solo...
I was at this show and I still have my ticket stub...Field, Section AA, Row 18, Seat 8. I have the DVD too but I am very grateful this channel posts these shows. Thank you!
this was my only time getting to see the Dead, I was thirteen and I got separated from my brother when I rushed the field, didn't get out of the show til long after the metro closed and had to get picked up by my dad in the middle of the night
I twisted my ankle really bad at this show on the metal risers then we all went to Atlantic City on the day off before the Giants stad shows. My buddies wanted to walk the whole boardwalk, I was like the famous scene from the end of "Von Ryan's Express" with Frank Sinatra fading off as the train pulls away "you guys go on without me"
Was there a pot festival going on outside the stadium at this show? If so I was taking part in that with this show and the fans reactions as a soundtrack.
This was going to be my first show, but I was late in traffic and missed my buddy with my ticket. So I just wandered the lot, and had a pile of fun! Nice to finally see what I missed!
Been frugally cutting long jeans for decades, after bottoms fray too much, holes in knees, pockets, etc. Perfect for yard work, laying around house, quick run to gas stations, whatever informal. But, dang, never chopped them as high as Bobby's. 🤔🤦♀😅🤣❤
Every week comes the same question. I'll answer again. Most of the shows you see on TH-cam are bootlegged. Fans snuck in videocameras and recorded the shows. Thats where 99% of the earlier shows come from. The only shows the Grateful Dead have in THEIR archive were either filmed specifically for release like View From The Vault II or are feeds captured on the summer tour video screens. That is why the bulk of these Shakedown Streams are from that era (late eighties on). If they never added video screens there would be even less professionally filmed video/shows to share. Be GRATEFUL for what we have 25 years after Jerry passed on. You can always watch a bootleg video instead.
OR some shows, like the ones at the Capitol Theater, were recorded for showing on their indoor closed circuit, etc. The stuff on Music vault is official and not technically bootlegged, but also not released by the band. Those are grey area videos. Also there are the things that were pay-per-view videos that the band is not showing for some reason. I'd love to see some of the New Year's Eve broadcasts on this series.
My first Dead show was at RFK stadium when they played with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers and Bob Dylan. I was 15 and had absolutely no clue who all these weird colorful people were. Was there to see Bob Dylan. My brother bought a couple 40ies of Schlitz Malt Liquor ( was the only brew left in the little convenience store there in n.e. DC) and I got pretty darn drunk. Wasn't even a week later and Jerry was in a coma. Luckily for all of us he awoke from that to tremendous new energy and drive for the next few years to come. He sure still has it here. Looks like the band is having the time of their lives.
91 was actually a good year. One could see a future with Bruce after good spring 92, which included some Hampton shows, the May Cal shows had no Bruce. It was JGB only for me from that point. The sound vince produced at times was like fingernails on a chalkboard to my sensibilities. This and the Louisville 90 are the only stadiums i ever attended. I always skipped those way too many people.
My first show too! I was 13 and only went cause I wanted to see Tom Petty (I had gotten Southern Accents and it quickly became my favorite record). Little did I know what that show would lead to. This night in RFK, and RFK ‘90, were probably top 5 of any I ever attended. ‘91, the last great year...
Lol,,I did that tour, was at RFK Dylan/Petty. Begging for liquid while in line entering RFK. Thankfully I ran into a friends older brother from Philly and he drove me back up 95 home. Was gonna head out to Ventura. Glad I didn't as I believe Jerrys' Diabetes acted up and they were out of comission for a stretch. What a summer that was. Thanks for the memory,,,,, Happy trails.,,,, jft

Love when that happens. Happens a lot at Madison Square and in Pittsburgh civic. They have suspended from ceiling, sections. The whole thing gets bouncing
I recall that also! Memorable.
Good time
RFK Stadium was famous for the Tennessee Jed bounce..
1973. Till Jerry passed,, ,still get goosebumps.
Seems the boys are having a good time,,specialty Vince & Bruce, Jerry
I remember watching them film this concert back in 91 , I was just 17 scratching my head wondering how I could get a vhs tape of this show, and thirty years later I am giving my neighbors a grateful dead exorcism via Harmen 🙏 Karden speakers...Awesomeness...
RFK Forever
Spring tour was a mind bender also!!
Nice stuff, growing up in the 70s, you gotta love this stuff, especially when you is stoned PEACE ✌
Always loved the “Jerry Shuffle” to the mic in the beginning of Franklin!
I was there and was fortunate to see Bill on drums and Phil on bass doing sounds checks while laying on the grass 😎
Five things
I love that Bruce Hornsby is randomly there jamming out on accordion, and he does really a great job with the fills
I love that he has the biggest grin on his face, you can tell he's so jazzed to be there - he's a very humble man, and an incredible pianist.
I love Bobby's shorts and loafer combo, it's absolutely dropped dead hilarious every time
It's really funny that Jerry's hair matches The smiling skeleton and lay on his guitar
I don't know what number 5 was originally, and I can't make anything else up
You
I saw a lot of Grateful Dead concerts between 1984-95, and this stands out as one of the very best ones. On an oppressively hot muggy June night DC, the boys exploded. First time Help on the Way/Slipknot and Dark Star were played in the same show, with absolutely everyone on-stage SMOKING. Too many highlights and memories. Happy 30 year anniversary to this beast!
I love Jerry’s hair blowing in the wind. 😁✌🏻🥰
...out in the cold rain and snow
It's the answer, my friend
It certainly is majestic ✌✌
We all do
In the fan, actually. Not much wind that day. It was HOT
This was the only concert I saw Jerry. I remember his hair blowing. I drove my friends home on 495 (some in the back of a red pick up truck) after the show. I was in the left lane, driving 45 at times. Didn’t get pulled over and no one died. I am listening to the show right now on You Tube. So weird. I’m sure I was in the parking lot swilling beers at a rapid pace. I was 17 🌹
Philly has a spare tirer around him ! As we say here from where I’m from but it’s good to put on a little weight once in awhile !
Being married + all that goes with it ! Much love to u my friend Phil ! ❤️🐰🐇✌️💀☠️💚👻🥰😍😘👽🪐🛸🚀⚡️💥✨🌟🌈
You ain’t gonna learn what you don’t wanna know- yep 😮
It’s been all over now Baby Blue for to long for my self to take much more of this ! I’m just a broken down palace ! 💔💞❤️🔥🥵😢😉🥶🤯🤬😩☹️😞🐰🐇🪽🕊️🫥😶🌫️im fading away my love !
This is a time-less recording of the most awesome jam band in history, in my opinion. never did see em live. . .
Me neither, I was too young unfortunately. I was 10 when Jerry died and I only vaguely knew who he was because of my mom talking about him. She wasn’t a deadhead or else maybe I’d have been a fan sooner.
Greatness, Vince and Bruce filled some shoes. On their own terms and nailed it. Great show.lets keep the love and peace going people. We can all relive through these vids and comments.we,all see each other one day anyway. Out there somewhere. Maybe the lost sailor will guide us to the dark star. Peace
Great tour, caught a couple or three.
So, so dank.
I was there! Loved all those RFK shows ... but especially the rain show the year before this one (7.12.90), which is easily in the top 5 of all the many shows I went to, and, sadly, the last time I saw Brent.
Wow 7/12/90 was amazing. Traveled down from New York . Loved the dark star and brent on dear mr fantasy > hey jude.
Sick show in 90
Great Show and thanks for posting every week my Friday Fix... ❤️❤️❤️
My Greatest Dead 💀 Memory is Three Weeks after their shows I couldn’t hear a word anyone said buzzzzzz 🐝 buzzz 🐝
I remember going to Watkins Glen on the Roof of Snorten Norton’s Car along the finger lake
DJ 97 Rock 🪨 Buffalo NY
Love 90s Dead
😘💛
I used to love the Bruce days! He had this connection with Jerry and was a really nice fit at the time. Even Vince, very special musician and highly overlooked. The double keys added that extra something special. I miss the good old grateful dead days. Haven't been since Jerry and Vince passed, not the biggest John fan, but Jeff and Otiel obviously kick ass. Completely different vibe with completely different type of crowd now. I got my tapes and memories and I'm grateful for that...
Perhaps it isn't the scene that has changed... but how would you know if you "haven't been".
@@Surge_LaChance Of course it's changed. Everything has. Used to see AT LEAST one naked guy running around in the parking lot at every show back then. Now people won't go without their masks. LOL!!! It's changed A LOT!!!
yo Vinny, love Bruce to.
Ya what happened to all the school busses and spinners and 350 dollar ten packs, those were the days.
Can't count the times I watched this shrooming and tripping ❤️💯🎶⚡🌹
well then see you in jerry church ! lol
We are everywhere......
Yep! Weir Everywhere
Good Franklin tower
Thank You
The best feature on Two From the Vault DVD was/is the 7/12/ 90 RFK bonus video footage from the summer before. Box > Victim > Foolish > Dark Star. The audience and the band connection is at it's peak. Healy on the loose and the rain make for a special second set opener. Phil honors the moment w/ the Box opener. Brent......gone 2 weeks later. Damn. I had 7 copies (only 5 now) of that specific Two From the Vault DVD just for the 7/12/90 filler only so I never do not have that video of pre-set 2 from 7/12/90 in my hands. There were very few moments like that ever seen again by the band. Ever. It is pure gold.
Great Piano Solo Vince, Big RIVER....
Bobby's hair is perfect!
arguably my favorite Stella outro jam ever, (along with 4-4-88), but it would have been so nice to see more of Jerry's fretwork rather than yet another psychedelic wavy screened rotating planet montage during the crux solo...
I was at this show and I still have my ticket stub...Field, Section AA, Row 18, Seat 8. I have the DVD too but I am very grateful this channel posts these shows. Thank you!
Still have all 300 of my stubs
I did not realize we had assigned seats. Damn. My apologies to anyone I may have offended......
Loved it
@@jasonhorne4533 ok
ok
this was my only time getting to see the Dead, I was thirteen and I got separated from my brother when I rushed the field, didn't get out of the show til long after the metro closed and had to get picked up by my dad in the middle of the night
I was there too
I twisted my ankle really bad at this show on the metal risers then we all went to Atlantic City on the day off before the Giants stad shows. My buddies wanted to walk the whole boardwalk, I was like the famous scene from the end of "Von Ryan's Express" with Frank Sinatra fading off as the train pulls away "you guys go on without me"
Excellent! Thanks for sharing. F'n hilarious. I've kinda been there.
Haha! I sprained my ankle right before a show. Still, the Dead (& some X) had me dancing on it for 3 hours straight.
Bobby with the short shorts ..whoooaa flashback!
This is ACTUALLY my FAVORITE Grateful Dead line up...🍺😎👍
Was there a pot festival going on outside the stadium at this show? If so I was taking part in that with this show and the fans reactions as a soundtrack.
Jerry was zoned out after the first couple verses. What a glorious recovery though. Overall the Help>Slip>Franklins was tremendous!
This was going to be my first show, but I was late in traffic and missed my buddy with my ticket. So I just wandered the lot, and had a pile of fun! Nice to finally see what I missed!
I really Liked Maggie's Farm... Five Verses, Five singers... Classic!
i wuz there. still have my tickets to both shows on the DVD.. stuck in the DVD :D
Favorite moment: Jerry nodding his appreciation for Bruce @ 13:38
piano is sooooo good :)
Bobby rockin' the jorts!!
Love me some good ol Grateful Dead.
Been frugally cutting long jeans for decades, after bottoms fray too much, holes in knees, pockets, etc. Perfect for yard work, laying around house, quick run to gas stations, whatever informal. But, dang, never chopped them as high as Bobby's. 🤔🤦♀😅🤣❤
The dead didn't just draw a crowd but something else living...
Great show! IWT Dark Star, was a nice treat, but nothing, compare, to 7/12/90's suprise DS.
He was missing me + did come looking for me but got the wrong island of Stoneington Maine instead of Vinalhaven Maine !
Every week comes the same question. I'll answer again. Most of the shows you see on TH-cam are bootlegged. Fans snuck in videocameras and recorded the shows. Thats where 99% of the earlier shows come from. The only shows the Grateful Dead have in THEIR archive were either filmed specifically for release like View From The Vault II or are feeds captured on the summer tour video screens. That is why the bulk of these Shakedown Streams are from that era (late eighties on). If they never added video screens there would be even less professionally filmed video/shows to share. Be GRATEFUL for what we have 25 years after Jerry passed on. You can always watch a bootleg video instead.
OR some shows, like the ones at the Capitol Theater, were recorded for showing on their indoor closed circuit, etc. The stuff on Music vault is official and not technically bootlegged, but also not released by the band. Those are grey area videos.
Also there are the things that were pay-per-view videos that the band is not showing for some reason. I'd love to see some of the New Year's Eve broadcasts on this series.
Yeah we all know this Eagle. But thanks
What about the 1970 family dog show
Surprised they haven't shown any of the radio city '80 shows yet.
@Mookie Blaylock sorry you never saw the gd, poser
My first Dead show was at RFK stadium when they played with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers and Bob Dylan. I was 15 and had absolutely no clue who all these weird colorful people were. Was there to see Bob Dylan. My brother bought a couple 40ies of Schlitz Malt Liquor ( was the only brew left in the little convenience store there in n.e. DC) and I got pretty darn drunk. Wasn't even a week later and Jerry was in a coma. Luckily for all of us he awoke from that to tremendous new energy and drive for the next few years to come. He sure still has it here. Looks like the band is having the time of their lives.
91 was actually a good year. One could see a future with Bruce after good spring 92, which included some Hampton shows, the May Cal shows had no Bruce. It was JGB only for me from that point. The sound vince produced at times was like fingernails on a chalkboard to my sensibilities. This and the Louisville 90 are the only stadiums i ever attended. I always skipped those way too many people.
My first show too! I was 13 and only went cause I wanted to see Tom Petty (I had gotten Southern Accents and it quickly became my favorite record). Little did I know what that show would lead to.
This night in RFK, and RFK ‘90, were probably top 5 of any I ever attended. ‘91, the last great year...
Lol,,I did that tour, was at RFK Dylan/Petty. Begging for liquid while in line entering RFK. Thankfully I ran into a friends older brother from Philly and he drove me back up 95 home. Was gonna head out to Ventura. Glad I didn't as I believe Jerrys' Diabetes acted up and they were out of comission for a stretch. What a summer that was. Thanks for the memory,,,,, Happy trails.,,,, jft
