Thanks for the report count2.
Sounds like a ripper.
Still waiting for my old school.

I didn't count Here Come Sunshine because only in the reimagined version that showed up in the 90s did it start that way.
Good call. I only heard the 90s version
in my head.

All powerful Wiki says Cher 90/06/02.
Also mentioned the facility "barely completed".
Love fabulous tour stories.

You picked a damn good vintage for a large touring year! Spring tour was no more than solid, at least in my book, but the February shows, the summer tour, and obviously the fall tour were all gold.
I saw both Oakland post space Foolish Hearts, but for some reason didn't make it down to LA for those Forum dates. And after seeing what happened with the Dylan appearance on 2-12 I was beating myself up over it. Pretty cool that they essentially let Dylan call the pre-drums sequence, which reads like an extension of the first set and includes the only Monkey and the Engineer since '81 plus an electric version to boot.
Squeezed in a dozen Jerry
shows as well, it was a
good year.

And back to our random Dead minutiae of the day….
Foolish Heart was played 3 times after space, in consecutive appearances, about 6 months after it debuted. On 12-28-88 it was Miracle > Foolish > Lovelight to close the show. On 2-7-89 it was put between Throwing Stones and Good Lovin'. And on 2-12-89 it ended the 2nd set after Other One > Stella.
And with the experiment obviously over, it went back to its pre-drums slot, seasoned in with an occasional 1st set appearance.
Amazingly, I attended all three.
89 a large touring year.

I played many hours of pick up basketball at Barton Hall growing up. Fond memories of the old barn. Cornell's campus truly is second to none.
While I have a good excuse for missing the '77 show during 5th grade, I was 15 by the '81 show so the excuses get flimsier.
There were several pickup games going on
while we were there.
Also runners on the track.

1985, most of any year. 1 0f 2 1985 Jack-Roe's.
Day Job, often an encore, a rare late migration to
the first set. Second set a chunky delight,
Ripped Scarlet>Fire, wild drums/space segment,
High energy closing duo. And just for fun, why
not a double encore. Open wide and say ah.

The Dave Jacobsen Retirement Party delivers on
all levels of emotion. An amazing guitarist and
wonderful person sails off into the sunset with
an epic performance in front of a deep rainbow
of lovely people in the Baltimore Dead Head
community. I found Dave in 2018 and missed
few performances, Lou on harmonica had played
with Dave in different bands for 30 years.
Jack Straw just kills as a opener. Althea and
Mr. Charlie first set stand outs. Stranger rocks,
Eyes>China>Rider wicked triad. Third set a
gravy boat, and all delivered flawlessly.
The loving family feel between all in the crowd
and the band a real special treat. So glad I made It.
Love you Dave.

E: Way You Do the Thing You Do.
Slick elective fills a quirky old theater in front of
an unsuspecting local audience. H-S-F a 'means
business' opening sequence. Easy to Love You
had boys checking the songbooks, Slip the twofer.
Simple Twist not the JGB odyssey, 'tighter' version
minus the bass solo. Lisa really nailed the Women
Enough, everyone getting a chance at the mike
in the first. MAW a lovely close.
First bled into the second with opening pair, both
delivered with conviction. The Unbroken>Speedway>
Stephen the sweet gooey middle, UBC the launch point
to a monster Speedway, the turn on a dime intro
to the Stephen spectacular. Have caught Corrina here
a couple times, it works. Found some balcony space for
the Comes a Time, the Stephen reprise setting the table
for a kicking Goin' Down the Road finale.
Way You Do selection indicative of the carefully culled
evening list. Thanks Band and Crew.
On to the Caverns.

First two of the third with guest on harp, super jam in

Locomotive comes roaring out of the station in a quaint

Spent the first on the rail, a lovely position to watch the

the All Over Now, Esau a romp, I dig Passenger
in a big way, Stranger a strong set close.
GSL fun drop to the second, solid Estimated.
The Jam into the Star a sight to behold and a highlight
of the evening. I lost my marbles on the Reuben, dreamy
placement in the set. The ride home professionally delivered.
Band just hit the ground running, look out May.

It's true. While you get two in a row, 3 out of 4,
I patiently wait for number one. Life presently
getting in the way, so it may be a while longer.
Hope you are there when it happens.
