Subject: Awesome show and great SBD
These October 1989 shows are great. No "Dark Star" here, but I think this might be a better show overall. The band sounds energized and inspired.
I like ... the uptempo "Wheel." I think I've heard an even faster one, although I can't find it again. Very powerful "Morning Dew".
The SBD is sweet. Is this from the multi-tracks they were recording for Without a Net? The mix is excellent (could use a bit more Phil, if I'm nitpicking) and you can even hear the crowd at key points.
The CD box set appears to be out of print, but you can purchase the digital album from the band's official website.

I'm not a "everything after 1967 sucks" level snob but I usually gravitate to shows between 69 and 79. After listening to this show, I'm gonna correct
...
that blindspot immediately.
H/S/F is the obvious draw and its great but the Victim is just amazing. I'm not usually a big fan but the whole song is excellent. Bobby's singing is nice and strong without any unnecessary screams or yells. Phil and the drummers lay a solid foundation, they're not out front in the mix but you can hear each instrument clearly. Brent really shines but Jer, Holy Sh!t! You could put the last four minutes in the middle of a '72 Dark Star and people would be talking about "Best Ever!" Seriously, its that good.
Oh yeah, that lead in to Miracle is pretty damn cool. Really, the whole show kicks ass. Listen to it now!

I find this to be a rather good version of his quite "angular" song. Ive never been the biggest fan of it for reasons unknown and for some reasons known.
...
However this version at about 6:30 into it gets very psychedelic and has a very electronic vibe to it and I love it. Anyone have any other versions of Victim that are similar ??

Billed as "Formerly the Warlocks".
Fall 89 and Spring 90 were arguably some of the best Brent era Dead ever.

Subject: Best Post 70's Dead shows ever!
A college friend told me the Dead would be playing as the Warlocks in Hampton, which sounded unlikely- but we went anyway, somehow scored tickets, and
...
ended up within feet of the stage! I will never forget these shows- I was a HUGE Help-Slip-Franklin's fan, and when they broke that out in the 2nd set my head almost exploded. The Dark Star the next night was also unbelievable- I will never forget the electric pulse that hit my spine when Jerry started playing it. Not many shows in the 80's or 90's come close to the level of intensity these shows had. Download them!

Subject: of the three available versions of this show...
this version is head and shoulders better than the schoeps and the other version claiming to be a sbd (its not-its a crappy aud recording). The schoeps
...
is actually a solid aud version, so if that's the way you go than grab that one.
either way this show rocks, and is, as others have mentioned, completely overshadowed by the the following night. Just a great two night run. No, screw that, the whole fall of 1989 top shelf. there are so many gems on this tour.

This was my 2nd Dead show, one I'll never forget. Tickets went on sale a week before the show in Hampton and Richmond only. I was at Mary Washington
...
Coll. at the time and sped at warp speed down I-95 to get tickets as soon as we found out they were coming.
A very underrated show as compared to the next night. The Help>Slipknot>Franklins is my favorite of all time. It was an electric atmosphere in there all night that night, the entire arena was general admission, so there was just a overall feeling of freedom and energy amongst everyone, and the band fed off that. I wore my cassette tape of this show out several years ago, it's great to hear it once again.

In reference to Tod's warning (see review below), I just downloaded, decompressed, and burned this show, and Disc 2 does not exceed 80 minutes.
[Updated: ... As for Cortez the Killer's review (below), according to Winamp, Disc 2 runs 1:19:53. Burning with Easy CD Creator 6 (as I did), this fits on an 80-minute disc without need for editing. Perhaps other software crams in extraneous information somewhere, not allowing for the full 80 minutes.]
I did notice something a little weird, however. While using Soundforge to combine tracks 10 and 11 of Disc 1 (which needlessly and perplexingly split up "And We Bid You Goodnight"), I noticed that the shape of the "soundwave" is off-center in both channels for the entire show. In other words, whereas most waves spread upward and downward evenly from the -0db line, these waves spread upward and downward from around the -18.1db line. I'm no expert, and have no idea how this effects the sound quality (if at all), but I thought I'd mention it.
Also, this source is clearly a Matrix, not a pure SBD. And judging by the amount of white noise present, I'd guess there are at least a couple analog generations in the lineage somewhere.

This killer show is often overlooked by the following nights' Dark Star breakout, but DON'T MISS THIS ONE! These shows were some of the most energetic
...
(audience and band) that I ever experienced. The tune-up before "Help" as Jerry established the tempo was incredible, as all of us on Phil's side figured out what was coming up next! This version remains my favorite out of all of the subsequent versions that were played...it was as if the Slipknot snake was dying to get out of the bag and whirl around the audience. Check out Jerry's vocal jam in the final chorus of "Franklins"! I'm not a big fan of "Victim", but this version grabs the dissonance of "Slipknot" and takes it even further...then the absolute joy of "Eyes", with a pounding back-beat rhythm...Finally the "Dew" is tremendous with everyone playing their heart out...the Dead LOVED Hampton and proved it yet again on this night...on a more practical note, I had this same quality version of this tape many years ago that I gave to an older couple in the campground a few years (months?) later when we went to see JGB at Merriweather Post and I never could find anything but a crappy aud recording after that...THANKS for posting such a kick a** copy of this show! Paradise Waits...
