Is 4/28/89 a Grateful Dead show?
It is. Well spotted.
Should I listen to it?
You? No. Classy people? Yes.
Speak of the Playin’.
She is rotund and robust; pay her heed and you will do right in this world.
And the Picasso Moon? Is it a heady one?
Nay. Bobby is doing this weird falsetto thing. Unpleasant listening experience.
Does the moon know of our sorrows?
Know? Yes.
Does she care?
Care? No.
Alas.
Alack.
Nice Falsetto on Ace during the beginning of Picasso Moon…
Can anyone tell me if I went to this show? Not that you would have seen me there; I think this can be figured out mathematically.
Degree of confidence that I attended the 89 Irvine run – 100%
Degree of confidence that I attended more than one show – 80%
Degree of confidence that I attended Sunday (the 30th) – 70% (It was a daytime show that coincided with an air show at El Toro MCAS, which made it memorable. El Toro and Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre – two things that aren’t there anymore. And Lion Country Safari, but I digress).
Degree of confidence that I did not attend all three shows – 95% (there’s’ no way my mother would allow it, and I was a good kid)
Recollection of setlist for either Friday or Saturday – 0%
Likelihood that I attended on consecutive days – 20%. I lived kind of a long haul from Irvine. Doesn’t seem like something I’d do.
its been 9325 days since the last S.F. Picasso Moon!!!
nicely done
There are eleven >’s in a row shown on that second set listing. Did they really do that??? Nary a break for time wasting, substance abuse, time abuse nor substance wasting???
There’s a vocal delivery on “I’d rather be with you” at the end of Standing on the Moon that is awesome. I’d never heard Jerry’s voice sound quite like that.
A fun fact about these shows: I spoke on a cell phone (really a car phone at that point) for the first time while driving into the parking lot. A friend had borrowed her aunt’s car and auntie said it was ok to use the phone. Cool aunt.
