Another great 85 show, the spring and summer had some real gems. This show is one of the gems! Supplication was never the same once they stopped playing

last lighting but this is the closest they come to pulling it off like an 83 supplication. Anyway, awesome stranger, stager Lee, GDTRFB etc. 4 stars as Phil is loud and ON as is the whole band.

Excellent sound. The speed is off just a little. Songs are south of flat for the key they should be in.

Always curious when an orphaned Supplication makes an appearance. Obviously there is something in the noodling that takes them there.

SPAC - Pat Kelly
Wow, So Pat Kelley was the name of the guy hanging from the balcony. Thats funny. Several years after the SPAC show I was at a party of some sort and
...
I met that guy. He was still talking about that show. I also remember some of the crowd busting through the catwalk to the inside of the theater. Most got wacked by security, but there was a naked guy that got through, and for some reason the security guards did not want to touch him - so they let him dance.

Livin' the Good Life
Another great show from June '85. The first set starts off with a Midnight Hour bust out that leads into an energetic Bertha. I love bluesy Bobby and
...
Rooster doesn't disappoint. Stagger Lee is average but the El Paso>Crazy Fingers>Supplication Jam>High Time segment is classic. Two rare first set tunes with an excellent jam in between. The Bucket>Don't Ease set closer is very energetic and a nice finish before the break. The second set starts with an amazing trio of Stranger>Eyes>Goin' Down the road, which contains a great jam in each song. The Eyes in particular really stands out. The post Space Truckin is average but leads into Spoonful which I love hearing followed by a beautiful, soulful rendition of Black Peter. Lovelight closes things out on a high note. The Johnny B. Goode encore is a nightmare that totally collapses in the middle. It is incredibly awful Baby Blue is a nice make up selection.

many heads crashed through the guard on the walking platforms during Midnight Hour. We arrived inside between jerry and bobby up top. I had three friends with me. Well two of these guys decided to hang off the balcony. One being the person Bobby is referring to just prior to the start of Stagger Lee...Mr.Pat Kelley. I couldnt believe Bobby was yelling at my friend....was this really happening??? This guy was a little crazy..actually still is....Anyway, just wanted to convey this funny story. The show was real nice with some great highlights...first set crazy fingers, Stranger>eyes...baby blue.....more rain,,,83, 84 and 85 it rained like crazy....we had fun though...those were the days of camping, open fires in the field across the street and wacko friends like Kelley... enjoy the show.

the second "attempt" (I was there, too and everyone thought it was coming....), I mean, if you listen to it, the whole band-weir included-was there! oh well, definitely an epic first set indeed, great old time energy; SPAC did bring out the best in the boys, esp from 83-85 (skipped 88...)never thought I'd hear myself say it, but also, arguably the bestplayed?

like this is the version to get. About as pure a 1985 era GD show as there is. And the best first set I ever witnessed in 120 shows over 12 years. Some wondered if Jer was getting cut off w/supplication...nah..they play it out as they did at other 85 shows...just without the Lazy Lightning. Second set doesn't suck either! The finest east coast Concert venue they ever played.

High Time, and a surprising Supplication jam among the highlights. Of course, if you just want to hear something funny, check out Phil railing against the idiot who climbed atop a tower and held up the show for a while...it's actually an ominous sign of things to come some 8-10 years later when morons from everywhere the Dead went came out of the woodwork to ruin a good time for all by gate-crashing and generally acting like soccer hooligans that just ran out of beer. But it's kind of fun to hear Phil, Bobby (and even Jerry) read this jerk the riot act, and when Jerry heads right into the opening notes of "Stagger Lee", it's back to an excellent show. BTW, my all-time favorite admonishment from band to crowd is found on a recent Dicks Picks show from 1974--I think it's Philly or Jersey--at the end of an excellent Eyes of the World, when Bobby warns the crowd that the fence up front has sharp jagged edges "and if you try to climb it,it's gonna cut ya." Then after a second or two--during which some mentally-challenged individual apparently didn't heed that warning and complained about the harm he suffered as a result, Bobby says "WELL, DON'T ClIMB THE FENCE THEN, IDIOT!"
