saw them there in (i think)1987 and thats where I Became a deadhead I saw them probably 15 times after that. I saw the last 3 shows at Soldier Field and the rest is history.
I was at this show!!!! and many more of the indian creek / alpine valley shows in the late eighties to mid nineties. I doubt I'll ever have that much fun again. I guess I can always look back
Now kids, take that fussing outside. Your Grandmother and I are trying to listen to our bootlegs from New Haven Colliseum '78 ;79 ;80. "Mother, help me turn my hearing aid up and lets boogie with our bad selves to some music that comes along once in a lifetime...." (Once in a Lifetime, TheTalking Heads...Big Suit Tour, that's a whole other story)
I caught the '92 (w/ Steve Miler Band) and '94 (w/ Traffic) shows at solder Field in Chicago ... one of my friends wandered off drunk and got mugged in Grant Park at the '94 show LOL ...
Everyone's entitled to their opinions; you can't force someone to see beauty where you do and they don't. It doesn't mean it's not really there, but this, nor the rest of the Internet, is not the place to conduct a non-logical, name-calling argument. Tactless.
I was at this show.....and many others at Alpine Valley. Best place ever to see a show, except for MAYBE Red RocksholeThe sound at Alpine is top notch. Anyone who has seen a show here will agree. My first MDMA at this show. Green Dragons the night before. Met a girl named Nichole Moore from Pittsburgh. I would like to see her again. =)
@abahgus, I guess you don't know any decent musicians. Your opinion is borne out of ignorance. Many of the greatest musicians of our time had a great respect for the Dead, why else would Miles Davis speak highly of them in his autobiography, and why would Branford Marsalis, and Ornette Coleman play with them? Ornette invited Jerry to play on his record Virgin Beauty, and Sting, Elvis Costello, an Stevie Winwood are on record as being big Dead fans. When you get a clue, let us know.

Guess Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Ray Charles fit into your doper category. Shut the F!@% up you dumb ass. Chip on your shoulder? Still playing' lame bars in podunk Arkansas?
@abahgus They have their success due too, and only to dopers. I have been a professional musician for 3+ decades. I have NEVER met any decent musician who thought these jokers were worth a shit. Only drug addicts do for the most part.
Grew up in Madison, saw all the Alpine shows until I moved in '85 (first of many GD shows was Feb. '78 in Madison, Dick's Picks #18, last was Las Vegas '95). Alpine was great, first couple years you could bring in beer so long as not in glass---we'd fill empty milk jugs with Point Beer and hit the road. Got busted on way to Alpine show in '81, cop behind a barn saw me with a beer in car (not driving), we had to follow him to a "cop tent", paid $50 and on our way. Also saw DP#32 there in '82...
At about the 420 mark Brent goes off...It wasn't the same to see them with Vince and even Bruce..But I still went and had a great time!!! I was fortunate enough to seem them from the mid 80's to the end, my last show being 95 in Highgate.
The Alpine shows were awesome. Great venue. Camp out and party till show time, go back to camp and start all over again the next day. Good times.................
all songs by the dead are great, i love them all but have you heard their cover of "stir it up" nobody new the words but the music was good the vocals will make you cringe
No band will ever sniff the Grateful Dead live. I went to Darkstar Orchestra a few years back and listened to some saying that f'ing rocked.. It was nice but I had to bite my tongue...you have no idea what ya missed. Far as cover bands go no better than them...and DS now has lead guitarist now for the dead.
...saw this one playing on the Jerry Projector Screen in Jackson's Hole at the Darling Reunion during Oregon Country Fair this past summer. what an experience :)
nice . This show was a little b4 my time i didnt start listening to the dead till 96 but do enjoying then music from the Grateful dead then and now does anyone have the show from 85 alpine on here once again thank you
Wow, I'm sitting here watching this video and looking at my ticket stub from this show and being grateful that I got to see them so many times. Thank you for posting this it brings back soooo many great memories. These were the best days ever!!! I miss them sooo much!!!! Peace!!!
@terripin99 Yes they did! The song was a precursor to the Rolling Stones who took the stage a few days later. Or was it a tribute to the Stones who played a few days earlier? Or was it only to confuse Pete Townshend and the rest of The Who, who played somewhere in the mix? The summer of 1989 at Alpine was arguably the best summer Alpine and its guests and patrons ever did witness.
2nd dead show... prob the best one i was at!! I remember the PA sound for the drums went out for a sec in the middle of this song, and everyone looked around wondering what the freak just happened.
First dead shows I ever saw were at alpine maybe 1987-1989.....Unfortunately didn't know much about them then(shame on me). One thing I do remember was that it was always hot...like 90....and a soon as they hit that first note ,everyone...I mean everyone...danced..without exception........one big beautiful dust storm....twirlling girls in sun dresses with no..you know
Sorry to all of the kids that missed those legendary weekends camping ou on the golf course of Alpine Valley amid the cornrows of Wisconsin...those shows were truly magic and an era that cannot be recreated in today's society ...
@BarekHalfhand i know bro i was born in the wrong time would have loved it still got festivals but im pretty sure its totally diffrent and we dont have the artist like buddy guy and furthur are givin me a glimpse man lol
yeah in the early 80's the old hippies considered us the wannabes invading their scene LOL ...it was a much different vibe back then, I love live Dead music and I'm a metal-head ...Ive seen the Dead about 20 times or so with Jerry....
I deleted my original reply to this Rhodes Scholar as it seemed like overkill...some of the negative comments here alone prove that sadly the vibe of that era probably cannot be recreated today....This is coming from a guy that has ruled the pit at more than one Slayer show BTW ;) ....
@BarekHalfhand Im 19 from wisco...man I wish I would have been able to attend atleast one show...been to alpine plenty of times but nothing that could compare to the dead...id like to trade jimmy buffett for jerry please Lord?
It seems like many of you younger folks have the right attitude so maybe there is hope after all ...I've been to many concerts including Woodstock94 and what was so great about the Dead shows was that there were never any fights and a predominately good vibe ...btw hard drugs were not necessarily mandatory to enjoy the scene and feel apart of it (JMO) ....
@BarekHalfhand Thanks for the condolences, I was only 14 when Jerry passed, Just missed out :( I catch any members of the Dead and DSO as much as possible...Furthur is an amazing experience as is DSO for those of us who never got to see the Dead, I don't care what anyone says!!!
The scene was about sharing a positive attitude, out of the 25 plus sold out Dead shows I attended, I don't think I ever saw a fight ...although there was an incident where a dude with a thick California accept sternly asked us to stop shooting fireworks off of the top of an RV because and I quote: "you almost set my old lady on fire!" LOL
I never saw any of the Further shows but I did see Bob Weir and Bruce Hornsby play with The Band at Woodstock 94 ---another brush with insanity
@BarekHalfhand@gesmith98 Furthur is tourin like they're young right now...you should try to catch a show, really good time...I've only seen em at All Good Festival so I am really lookin forward to catchin em strictly as a "Dead" event. LMAO almost settin someone's old lady on fire is never good!
I love the fact that one of my favorite bands (Grateful Dead) is covering another one of my favorite bands (The Rolling Stones) that also does an excellent cover of this Bobby Womack song.
Yep, I know. =) Jimi Hendrix also covered Bob Dylan, which I'm sure you know already and I think he did Chuck Berry too. Please correct me if I'm wronng.
I wonder if they knew at the time that it was "all over now" for them at one of the best venues to
EVER see a dead show (ALpine)? Remember the rumors we would here every Spring about a return to Alpine? They would of had to leave the lots open all night to do Alpine again. Too many people and not enough places for them to go. Believe this was my 4th show. I didn't miss more than a few shows after this one though!
I read a great book on Uncle Jerry, and one thing I'd like to point out hat I find so fascinating is how Jerry took Bob under his wing and taught him how to play the 6 string. Developing a style of your is something your on your own with though Bobby...Damn I love that lil piece of knowledge...So stick that in ur pipe and smoke it fellow Dead Heads!!!
Although the secret is that Jerry and Bob would have been nothing if it wasn't for that badass name of Phil Lesh and those drummers, too. What's their names? Mickey and Bill? Not many people value them or respect them. It's always "Jerry".
@johnnylaw100 I disagree... There was also the Jerry Garcia Band, which could be just as powerful as a Dead show on occasion. No Phil or Billy or Mickey or even Bobby there...
Jerry held the "soul" of the band, that charasmatic magnetism that made you feel the emotion he evoked. His singing/facial expressions just DREW you in.
What a crazy group of misfits. Hahaha!!! I love every one of these guys. What amazes me is how in the hell so much of the best talent can somehow arrange themselves on the same stage. Incredible.
I was there the night before, July 18. It was a great show too. They were in great form, full of energy. They encored with Quinn the Eskimo, a big surprise. A lesser surprise is that so many people feel inclined to make nasty comments on Grateful Dead pages. When this song was released in 1964 it was a big hit, the first for the Stones in the "U.S.," if I remember right. It was a pretty cookin' version, and the guitar work, especially at the end, broke new ground.
This wa s agreat line up. Alpine Valley, what a great place to be over a weekend to see a Dead show. This must have been one of the last shows they played there.
wheeew!! Got chills allll over again! It takes me back. Was at the shows, have the tapes, to see it again makes me happy and sad. Brent and Jerry arrrgh! Miss you guys!
This was a great show. I lived in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, not too far south of Alpine Valley where they did this show. Alpine Valley was the first place I saw the Dead.
I was at this show. I was 17, this was my first show. It is funny, I made maybe twenty shows total but I remember this one like it was last night. Thanks for putting it out here. I told my mom I was spending the night at a friends house, when she found out I was at a dead show she freaked.
That was a great night!

A great group of musicians that came together at the right time in music. We won't ever see anything like 'em again.

Although the secret is that Jerry and Bob would have been nothing if it wasn't for that badass name of Phil Lesh and those drummers, too. What's their names? Mickey and Bill? Not many people value them or respect them. It's always "Jerry".
Pisses me off

@johnnylaw100 I disagree... There was also the Jerry Garcia Band, which could be just as powerful as a Dead show on occasion. No Phil or Billy or Mickey or even Bobby there...
Jerry held the "soul" of the band, that charasmatic magnetism that made you feel the emotion he evoked. His singing/facial expressions just DREW you in.

What a crazy group of misfits. Hahaha!!! I love every one of these guys. What amazes me is how in the hell so much of the best talent can somehow arrange themselves on the same stage. Incredible.

I was there the night before, July 18. It was a great show too. They were in great form, full of energy. They encored with Quinn the Eskimo, a big surprise. A lesser surprise is that so many people feel inclined to make nasty comments on Grateful Dead pages. When this song was released in 1964 it was a big hit, the first for the Stones in the "U.S.," if I remember right. It was a pretty cookin' version, and the guitar work, especially at the end, broke new ground.

Does not even come close to the 1964 and later versions by "THE GREATEST ROCK & ROLL BAND IN THE WORLD": "THE ROLLING STONES"

ur stupid leolovessixties: the stones version is bland bubble gum pop music; the dead's version is serious rock n' roll.

This was a great show. I lived in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, not too far south of Alpine Valley where they did this show. Alpine Valley was the first place I saw the Dead.

I was at this show. I was 17, this was my first show. It is funny, I made maybe twenty shows total but I remember this one like it was last night. Thanks for putting it out here. I told my mom I was spending the night at a friends house, when she found out I was at a dead show she freaked.

I just love Bobby's voice...can't wait to see the current tour. Some of my best shows of all-time (both Dead shows and others) were at Alpine Valley.
