I would pay money for a 90s show nowadays ....

Uh huh. No i understand ALOT of people don\'t like Vince era GD and to tell the truth the few Dead shows I caught w/ the \'03 Line-up matched most of the GD shows I saw in \'94/\'95. For me I LOVE \'85-\'89 as I basically lived on tour . The reason I love \'90\'s GD is mainly the touring I did w/ what I consider my family now. But you can\'t beat 5/31/92 W/ Steve Miller actually keeping up w/ and pushing Jerry. Phil fighting the ENTIRE band to go into the Other One from Spoonful lol.
 Oh and on 8/16/91 The ONE and ONLY Scarlet>Victim>Fire>Truckin\' second set.

3/29/90 BEST DEAD SHOW EVER!!! Thats all you need to know....

Dude you need 3/29/90

i know brah... i\'m glad someone else knows the magik!!

I agree, they have the unspeakable energy.  It\'s hard to go wrong with any show, but that 90 show is out of this world. I first heard the Eyes from it when i was 4 and I\'ve never been the same since...

Ya leith, bruce breathed lots of new life into jerry, lets not forget the great 5-8-77 show cornell everyone has that, phil with the great bass lines,
also that branford show 9-10-91, that is a classic.
you said 74?? how about 10-20-74 three sets,
 maples 2-9-73, I think was that the first wall of sound show?
geez I could go on and on any other years? you might want a suggestion. It depends on what you like, I love the drums and even play them,but I also love 72 , 73 dead when there was only one drummer billy is great they had a little more sense of tightness.

i first heard the eyes of 3/29/90 when i was 31.....on 3/29/90. yes....i was there. also....on my list is 9/10/91 at msg....the show in which branford played the whole night  along with hornsby....btw....i was there as well
