I sang a little while and then flew on.

Phil did a little opening riff tease to Dark Star during the tune up before Helilna. Little did we know....

It rained A LOT 2nd set this show, but if you knew RFK then you could get just under the lip of the roof straight back, be in the best sound and stay dry. All that watching the Dead Wave and feel the deck bounce 2-3 feet with the groove. The lights were great in the showers of rain. Not sure it gets a whole lot better than that.

So many good memories of this one & whole 89 summer tour. Drum tunnel near the river; urban surfing on the Metro with our 400# tie-dyed 5 star general all the way to Vienna - play nice Charlie. Good solid music that took you there the whole show. Bookend 1st set with some OK stuff between. 2nd set shines with a steady build through a very nice Terrapin sliding into the Other one (listen to the rain all through space and O1 intro). Nice Rat and Stones>GL finale.

The sound seems much better on this than the one with the Schoeps to me. Wonder why there is no board of set II or the night before? Too much scrambling to keep stuff covered & dry? It was a deluge, but everyone just smile, smile smiled.

3* - 4* struggle = 4 for the Pkg. + memories.

Bucket.. Fuck yeah BUCKET OPENER THIS IS 1989 BRO !!!! cannot go wrong with a Bobby "Bucket" screechfest...(and they tweak his vocals at the end)
Cold Rain and Snow I just Love when Jerry gets into "I married me a wife..she been trouble all my life.." clean..crunchy and lots of the killer Brent Organ broadsides....
Rooster...Bobby the best Suedo black blues singerlast 40 years..really I would see Bobby over Clapton any day...

this is late 80's early 90's dead at its peak...

I totally prefer 69 to 89 But hey its 1989 not '69 and hey The Fat Man is no longer of this earth
nothin left to do but smile smile smile...

Thanks for posting this show.I really enjoyed this show.Maybe not the best of the tour,but it had it's moments.I was surprized they played "To Lay Me Down" ,and I thought it was pretty good especially for a stadium show.This "Looks Like Rain" is probably my favorite version from '89 .
Depending where you were in the stadium it was chest pounding bass . Felt like the upper deck was going to collapse at times...
