This show was one of my all
This show was one of my all time favourites. They allowed camping for the show so that was a huge plus allowing for a lot of relaxed social interaction. I'm a East coast boy and like to dance Hard at shows. Unfortunately West coast shows tend to be very mellow affairs. Tickects are easy to get no one gets really pumped to see the Dead like they do on the East coast where getting a ticket to a Dead show was extremely difficult. West coasters were undeniably cool people wise relaxed. They just lacked some of that Fire and passion that fueled some east coast shows.
In Oregon I met the perfect Deadhead prototype hardcore hard working Oregon stock. The kind of people who don't just talk about doing stuff and then get stoned. No these are the lets work all week and release our pent up feeling through dance. My kinda people and this was my kind of Dead show.
The second set is one of my favourites with a sick Morning Dew to cap a great day. Oh and they broke out the thunder machine during Look's like Rain....
Little Feat
I always though Little Feat was the hardest act for The Dead to follow. They stepped up and delivered two great shows. What musicianship!
another view
a place i was born and grew up in the ferns and pinesthe mellow sourondings is what one looks for and not the FBI on top of auts stadium wher i once played 5th grade football watching me now think... will i go to jail if its the wrong thought? o-well lets lay in the grass and see one of the last trains fly out as we grab on to the cabooos .. good night brent last time you sang to me.. play play play kids ..love you all... relax
good vibes
I missed this one, cant remember if I could get a ride to Eugene or what but I just got a soundboard of the Feat from this day and it sounds like it was a rally fun show... I had the tapes of the GD set but I left them in someones car on tour... Im sure a sbd will turn up

Dead Feat
A lovely camping weekend in the lot followed by camping on the coast near Lincoln City. The Dead Feat sticker rode on my '67 Olds until it stopped running 9/95 (yeah a month after). Kesey's son on the thunder machine, and a prankster vibe throughout the lot. Glad we got two days at the stadium. People got a little wiggy about the man watching from the roof, but we had carefree fun.
June 23, 1990 Eugene, OR US
This show is when the bus came by ( I got on ). Thank you Ms. Tuttle
My first show!
I was nineteen and had never been to a concert before. I was swept away. Transformed forever! During 'Looks Like Rain', water droplets started falling on me and it temporarily broke my trance. I looked up into the sky and dicovered nothing but clear blue sky! I laughed with joy as I never had before. Mind you I was totally and completely substance free and had no outward reason to hallucinate or have a deeply spiritual experience but I did. I was never the same again and I never looked back.So glad for all this has brought me.
Peace and Blessings
gotta love the Autzen shows
yet another special and magical venue for the boys i cant ever remember a bad Autzen show even from the tapes of the Early 80s shows but these 2 in 90 really smoked Cumberlands always been one of my favs and this one definately didnt dissappoint met alot of great new people at this show danced my balls off nothing left to do but smile smile smile and remember the good times the boys brought us thanks Jerry,Bobby,Phil,Billy,Mickey & Brent
I was born and raised in
I was born and raised in the Bay Area but decided to make Portland, Oregon my home back in 1976. My friends and I drove in my car (which caught fire in Salem & had to be towed to Eugene) to the show. We arrived just as Little Feat were finishing their set. It was a hot day and crowded with alot of happy people. I was happy just to be there; it reminded me of when I used to go over to San Francisco on the weekends and there were free concerts going in Golden Gate Park, back in the late 1960's. I went down by the stage and had fun dancing and taking lots of pictures. Only later did I find out that I had screwed up and taken double pictures on one roll of film; I soothed myself by telling myself I was only to remember it in my mind. The car was worked on in Eugene, but was in terrible shape when we left to head up to Portland Airport so someone could catch a flight to Arizona. The car's alternator was going out and it just kept loosing power to the headlights as the daylight faded and the car totally died as we reached the airport parking structure and we had to run for the plane. After our friend left, we just started laughing and laughing and singing "You Can't Always Get What You Want". We had to call another tow truck to tow my car to my house, where it would sit looking pathetic. I sat on the back porch and watched the sun come up.
My first show
I was 16 and so excited. This was my first Dead show and phenomenal show at that; great camping, great weather, great friends.
please, save your proud isim
please, save your proud isim , love ya , out
Weirdest day of my life for sure
Also one of the coolest experiences I ever had. First show. All aspects of the GD experience epitomized. Good, bad and ugly.
The music was positively transcendent. I remember thinking, "Take away all the extra layers and angles - at the core these people are REALLY good musicians."
This was my first show ever,
This was my first show ever, age 16. Life changer!
One of the Best Sets I Saw of 121 Shows
Second set is one of the best sets that I saw them do in 121 shows from 1/79 thru 7/95. The second set was as good as it could get for them in the 80s/90s. This really should be a Dave's Picks release. The song selection, the playing, all perfect and inspired. Looks Like Rain is one of the best ever with great thunder sounds from Brent. Playing In the Band was always a great one to witness and they just sparkled in the jam. Everyone in the stadium was jumping up and down and howling with delight thru Uncle John's Band. I remember seeing the crew and backstage people all running up to the sides and watching when Jerry went into Morning Dew. Everyone there had the same thought, "This is IT. This is WHY we do this.".
