02-10-1989

Great Western Forum

Inglewood, CA

While I would take this show over just about anything a few years later, the Dead are just a little lackluster this night. After bringing it during the first run of 1989, the Dead might have slipped back into a little more mediocrity as they left the Bay Area for Los Angeles. Or, it just might be the sound, which is a little off, even on the soundboard.

Of course, even the Dead’s off nights can still be transcendent. And from his story on Archive, it is clear that for zion0793 the show, his first, was life absolutely changing. As he explains, “Walked in with a mohawk and a Misfits t-shirt and that ‘Feel Like a Stranger’ set the hooks in me as the boys slowly reeled me in (or out) for the rest of the show.” By the time the show was over, Zion was a committed Deadhead. And two months later he embarked in his “very own school bus/tattoo studio” to follow the band for the next year and a half. So, comment below if you got a tattoo from Zion on summer tour 1989! And enjoy the show, Just A Little Light will prove to you that Brent could have been a pop star, the Wheel out of Space is a treat, and the Sugar Mags closer gets pretty fiesty.
