  • damn he is LARGE in this era.

  • I think Jerry was wearing nikes at this show and had cool ranch doritos in his dressing room - next to his crack pipe

  • So cool. I can't decide which version I like better...the uptempo country or the medium slow shuffle. I wonder if they ever did this song in this era (late 80s)? I never saw it.

  • Too bad they didn't actually they that stuff that night at which I was in attendance but I never did see 'Hey Pocky Way'. However, I did see them rehearse on New Year's Eve '82 at Oakland Aud. with Tower of Power Horns as I was working to get in free. Part of that performance is here on Y.T. with Etta James but she wasn't at the rehearsal!

  • jerry is big in this lol

  • used to get to a show early if i could cause the sound check was as good as the show..especially in the 70's and 80's...like watching batting practice before a ballgame and watching mantle park a few 450-500 feet...

  • Why oh why didn't they break it out??"??

  • i loved when bobby used that guitar

  • I'll bet that show was smokin' hot-the soundcheck seemed to have a lot of energy. Neat!

  • a little insight..wonderfull

  • Wait -- they actually practiced?!?

  • Bob kills me.

  • This is part of the video

    Grateful Dead - Rehearsal / Soundcheck - New Years 87

  • you can tell these guys are brothers.

  • Really really good i looked everywhere for sitting on top of the world and i couldn't find it anywhere at any site

  • i was laughing at dippypoos comment ,,not at the video

  • nice bob lead

  • This is incredible! A rare view of rehearsal! It's cool they start Sitting on Top of the World up tempo, then try it as a slow blues! I don't think they ended up performing it with Brent. Does anyone have a video of the St. Stephen soundcheck from Oakland in the 90's? BTW, Jerry's wearing a jacket! Cool stuff! Thanks for posting it!

  • nice shirt bob

  • looks like oakland coloseum :)

  • Great stuff....looks like Spring '88

  • this is so kool

  • Jerry does look a little fatter than usual in this clip. Guess it means there's more ham for the jam.

  • ba ha ha !!!!!!!!!

  • Fat man rocks!

  • Too Fun !High Harry

    It's Liz..snicker snicker..

  • It's great to see what went on behind the scenes even in later years.
