I heard them twice in the ‘70s in London. Magic. Now I’m 84 and still loving them ❤️

I was blessed to see the Dead twice. Once in New Haven, Ct. 1970 something. It was a riot. No NO, I mean a REAL riot, with TG and batons! The other one was in Park West, Utah 1980 something. NOT a riot! It was 3 days of 24/7 French toast, served out of School bus in the parking lot! There was no schedule, the band played night and day. I don't think they ever stopped. I sure dint. BEST TIME EVER!

How anyone could see the greatest band in the universe only twice when the opportunity was there to see them many more times obviously after 1970 something just blows my mind Kurt!! What gives? You couldn't have been that busy that you couldnt have tried to experience that "BEST TIME EVER" a few more times..What gives brother?? GD was around till mid 90's ..

That was by far the best Scarlett Fire I have ever heard. I can't believe it was 94'. Just goes to show.

I was very fortunate to have seen the Grateful Dead at least a few times every year from 1978 to 1995. I have been able to see everything from Further Festivals, Ratdog, Phil and friends, The DEAD, Rhythm Devils, Future, and DEAD and Company. When they announced that 2023 would be the last time that they would Tour it Broke MY Heart to think that this could be the last time that I was going to be able to see MY BROTHERS and SISTERS that I have met over the last 45 years of being on the road every summer since I was a teenager. I know that there's many other bands that do what they did......... But there is NOTHING like getting a few of your friends together in the dead of winter here in Minnesota and planning your summer road trip to see as many shows that we could get to in a 2-3 week time frame. Then we would have to start to plan the whole Tour and the Trip of a Life time and see what ever we could do during this 2-3 weeks of our summer.

Black-coffee mornings, way before dawn and more like that. Listening now to this blessedly long version of Grateful Dead's Scarlet Begonias/Fire On The Mountain and I've got tears running down my face. What a strange trip, indeed. I think I'm happy. Don't pinch me.

I'm feeling lifted a couple weeks ago jamming it loud in the yard, dancing, and at the big note of Truckin, you know, BOOOOOOM..... I'm ready to crush it on air guitar lol, and they don't hit it hard AT ALL. Then it comes round again, and I think, "ok, this time they'll hit it hard". Nope. Not the third time either. I think "that's weird, I wonder what's up..." about 5 seconds later Jerry hits the gnarliest nastiest effect pedal and just goes off, ending up in what I'm pretty sure is an unlabeled Caution Jam, for like 10 minutes SO freakin good. It started when I had no idea what that next note was going to sound like.🤯 At the very end of NFA he plays these 3-4 repeated screaming notes that sound straight out of a 69 Other One. relisten.net/grateful-dead/1989/07/09

My impression of Mickey was formed in an earlier era, when he watched Jerry like a hawk, and instantaneously translated rhythmic changes in the lead into drum beats. This psychic ability, along with the way he could unexpectedly insert fills into microscopic time intervals, made and makes Mickey my favorite drummer of all time.

Actually, the Scarlet Begonias-Fire on the Mountain on November 1, 1979 was longer.....

I stopped seeing them after a couple disappointing shows a few years prior. Not good enough... Ill shut up now. Not really. Beautiful mix of high energy from the full band contrasted with a dreamy exploratory night for Jerry Garcia. Kind of reminds me of early Fire on the Mountain versions from from the seventies. I didn't see that era either because I was busy learning how to spell and pick my nose. Anyway I'm glad you kids got your share in 1994 I didn't know anything so high-energy was happening with the band I'm glad they had a really on night and I hope there are a lot more I also don't know about.
