One of the more disappointing shows, but not without a gem or two. The boys looked straight up loaded, the versions weren't the greatest but I had never gotten a Stagger Lee or Black Throated, and on this night back to back. I even predicted both songs...just had that feel. One guy next to me kept telling me I was some sort of alien super genius... I just laughed.

As far as the comment on no encores played since 5/3/86 (a most smokin' show, itself) there was no encore on the second night of the Memorial Day weekend run in 1992 at Shoreline. I was there and I was bummed....

I think part of the problem is the overall sound/mix. Jerry/Bobby/Vince are each mixed clean, and yet somehow it sounds like they're playing at opposite corners of an airplane hangar. Bobby's also got too much reverb, contributing to the effect.

When Jerry was on the stuff in the later days, the Dead often couldn't hack difficult songs. They always mangled Hornsby's Stander, they quit the popular Ruben & Cherise revival after 4 plays, and saddest of all, they often stumbled through their own songs - songs they'd been playing for 25 years.

"I want to tell you" - at this stage, they had no business attempting George Harrison tunes. Jerry's solo here is a microcosm of his struggles and inability in these sad last days. To call this take "good" is a sad reflection of what passed for "good" after '93.

Great versions of Attics of My Life and Sugar Magnolia. Top quality soundboard with a bit of Shoreline ambience best heard during drums.

First "I want to tell you". Tito, as crappy as this Foolish is, I still think the Deer Creek 7/21/94 version is worse.

The Foolish sucks.One of the worst ever done.The "i want to tell you"is the best one that they have done.

July 1st, 1994, was a sunny summer day spent lazily by the bay. A friend and I took the day off work and proceeded to spend the day (and most of our weekend, for that matter) sitting or strolling in the Shoreline parking lots for hours before each of the three shows. I can't even begin to remember how many kind folks we met that weekend. This was the last year the Shoreline center parking lot was open (the center lot was the one immediately outside the venue and thus the most happening scene) and the scene was wonderful.
A nine-song first set made us think that the band had really come to play. Foolish Heart was played for the first time since Sept. '93. Its pairing with I Want to Tell You was totally unexpected and got everyone excited. This is a clear, crispy soundboard recording, and I'd have given it 5 stars if the show was hotter overall, but I think the Saturday (7/2/94) show is the best of the three nights. FYI the 7/1 show had no encore played (the first time that happened since 5/3/86, I believe) due to the band reaching the venue's curfew cut-off.
