How was the sound at your theater?

It was horrid in Providence, no bass, extremely hot in the mids. Snare drum was brutal. I'm thinking the theater had something set wrong as it's hard to believe the Dead would send that out that way. At times it sounded like you were only hearing the center channel of a surround sound mix. Weir vocal very present, Jerry back in the mix. Weird.

Not the best set I've ever seen either, but still...always good to see ol' Jer.

The sound was great. In the beginning it was kind of low then someone cranked it. I thought the boys were all in the zone that night.

Went to it in buffalo. They wouldn't turn the lights Down, or forgot? I finally got a manager to do it, but it took twenty minutes. The sound was all bass and treble. No mids, vocals too low. Overall volume too low. It's the theaters, as they don't have it set for live shows. Bunch a bums, where everything is programmed, so these live shows throw them off. I had trouble last year as well at another theater in Buffalo. Next time I go, I am going straight to the manager and requesting that they be on the ball!

Our theater was excellent...surround sound, good volume, and great clarity. Not to mention they have a bar as well. Nice to be able to enjoy a couple of beers during the show.
Living about 1.5 hours from Alpine, I was at this and almost every other show there between '85 and '89. Was awesome to see it again.

Ya know, I've been to every one of these so far, but with all the 50th hoopla this year this one just kinda passed me by.

We saw the show in South Burlington Vermont. The sound was good to excellent. The video was great. Excellent closeups at times of Jerry's hands on the guitar, and great close ups of Jerry singing. Possibly a show showing a peak before the passing of Brent. Overall the show was presented with minimal video editing. No spacey effects, just some camera to camera switching. Jerry was animated, happy and had no trouble remembering the words. Great Sugaree, 2nd song of the first set, great video, "Jerry teaching Sugaree intro". You could often see Jerry palming the pick and then fingerpicking and back to the pick. Jerry whips out WOLF for midi flute sounds on space. Highly entertaining for any dead head, and if you are young enough to have missed the boys in concert, this was a good show to catch.

I just wish I could get a hold of the whole show, but just the continuous Jerry cam(s). Never understood why when Jerry is soloing, the film editor thinks its a good idea to show anything BUT JERRY. None the less there were some great closeups of Jerry mixed in there.

Bobby wearing short shorts! Possibly EPIC morning dew closes out the second set.

Dear GD productions: THANKS!
