Not Fade Away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[daddyoj]

Great version and era- remember how the west coast shows were well known to have that hometown advantage and soul ~ but the westies were very cool to those of us east coast boys who hitchhiked across America ( Umm from show to show, parking lot to parking lot- oh well - from brother to brother)

[phishspread]

@direwolf66 1989...didn't even get to see phish in their prime. future looks bleak in terms of hitting the road and following my favorite bands around, but...nothin left to do but smile smile smile

[tripfall224]

imho..the end of one of the greatest years the dead played...up there w 1971,1973,1977....thanks for the memories!!!!

[yenrab921]

[chuckieluv]

is this from a broadcast on an infant USA network on cable? i sorta remember watching this all coked up in a dive apt. ken kesey & bill walton were freakin' out .

[Inthedessert]

I was watching an interveiw of david letterman from 1987 and jerry garcia and bob weir were on there and they both said they played terrible at woodstock.

[augustwestusa]

I see some friends from the front row...some wall rats! Whoo hoo!

[augustwestusa]

I see some people I know from the front row!  Whooo hoo!

[Lccsandm]

[jonasgirlforever77]

so many ppl try to do covers of this song but no one does it like the dead! <3

[jonasgirlforever77]

my dream is to see the dead one day , i was born and raised a dead head!

[bobtube07]

@jonasgirlforever77

be the dead, live the dead

[direwolf661]

wow. One wish: be born in 1950, go to woodstock, follow the Dead. Why was i born in '79?

[aeroshine]

Those would have all been great experiences. However, there is NOTHING more valuable than youth!

[zackt112]

@direwolf661 agreed but i was sadly born in 1994 got to see the dead last spring though best time ever

[Wulf96]

@direwolf661 unfortunately I was born the day Jerry Died.

[aeroshine]

@direwolf661

Glad to see you here. Never wish your life away!!

[geneween420]

@direwolf661 same here man i was born in 79 wish i was tourin with em in the early 90"S

[neanderpaul14]

@direwolf661 could be worse......I was born in '68

[thesybs]

Watchin' this on you tube is not anything like bein' there.

[aeroshine]

@thesbys You are correct, but the videos are the next best thing. Video, or no video? I'll take the video!

[turgfan77]

Great show, My second all time. They actually opened with NFA that night also.

[axeman7000]

This song is covered bu so many bands....I love it...I play it in my band too.

[BATOUTOFHELL111]

love that bob point to himself wen he says give your love to me. Rest In Peace Jerry and Pig, amazing band.

[Mmorgpgamer]

no that was 86-89 i think - 85 wasn;t his best - he still as struggling with drugs.

[irtimed]

Dead Ahead is the Accoustic/Electric one form Radio City in NYC in 1980.

[yesdedhed]

and it goes on for ever & ever & ever & ever & ever  N F A

[ak4291]

Dude, Mickey is wearing a "Grateful Dead" t-shirt.  Rock on Mickey...Rock on.

[rollit06]

Oakland.... 1985.... Magic with Jerry and the band... never again....

[tflyer98]

Yes as Phil said they never really caught the flame after Brent died. That was the best line-up for the Dead when Brent was in the band.

[moonray5]

I was at this show,and still have the ticket stubs!!

[GratefulGarcia23]

bob is the man

[jay64stang]

The years when Brent Mydland was keyboardist were in my opinion the peak years of the Dead. They are on fire! Its awesome.

[dclax18]

Absolutley

[ibanezguitar1]

i agree. pigpen was epic also

[gorilocks]

god i love this

[LuniGirl22]

This fills me with smile's and goosebumps all over !

[greateststory72]

i love jerrys hardest workin man in the businees look in 85'

[Alembic40]

Man, it must've been the greatest feelin' in the world to have a whole venue chant in unison "you know our love will not fade away" =)

[phishfan1991]

awesome

[mrfish60035]

WOW

[rskrause1]

AMAZING!

[shoemia]

Can't stop watching!

[shoemia]

AWESOME!!!

[samaverick1900]

I wish I could have been at this one---the band played and the audience sang. Never seen anything like it.

[tapeatsboom]

Could Buddy Holly ever imagined such a happening??!! Did any other band and their fans ever create such a party and love fest?? I don't think so.

Peace on ya mates!

[oneeyecheshire]

Thank you splaif! I'm at home running a fever but this was the cure, :)_

[mslaerik]

reminds me of teh day Jerry left this planet

out of the blue we decided to go to the capitol park (in sacramento) and wouldnt you know it! but, i swear thousands of others just showed up Ive never seen that park so full

and we all sang this song for about 15 mins true story *clap clap clap clap clap*

[2ifbyCsharp]

You know you're a star when the audience does the show for ya!!!!!

[otleybey]

Go Bob. Love this song.
