Pass designs go ?  I mean we are talking about the Shakedown Street ! logo here Fans ... The Grateful Dead still ! Touring a little Shakedown Street Era-goods ... and right in Portland !  The " Portland " on the ' Right ' Side too ... as I'll indeed be sending this to You ! from the other " Portland " on the ' Left ' Side - or, as we like to always call it ... should I say tongue-in-cheek - " The Left Coast ! ".  And, you know ... the one The Grateful Dead ! is from.  Ha !  Dang ... and let me tell you - this 5/13/79 Show was actually the Final-Night ! of this 1979 " May " Tour, as the Band played U. Mass - Amherst the night before - and then didn't play another Show until late-June ( 6/28/79 ) in Sacramento, CA !  So, though maybe just a ' tad ' road-worn ... they still ! completely brought " The Heat " !!!  As this Show really set it's self up for a Mean !!! 2nd Set, while the Music Played The Band !!!  Sugaree ! opened this Show, with Jack-A-Roe - All Over Now & the Jack Straw ' set-closer ' really meaning the most to my Dead Fan ears ... & Mind !  It should be noted too ... that this Jack Straw Smoked !!!  Doing the absolute ' reverse ' for a mellower type 1st Set, that delivered some of the heaviest up-tempo during the Mama Tried > Mexicali !  And then ... Look-Out ( Below ! ) for Set II !!!!!  Scarlet > Fire !!!!!  Estimated > He's Gone > Truckin' ! ... Drums / Space > Wharf Rat > Around ... with a U.S. Blues ! Encore.  Some seriously " Good Ol' Grateful Dead " ... in '79 ! - let me tell ya'.  This whole darn May Tour '79 East Coast run was Remarkably-Hot ! - with this Show bringing much of the same-type of Jerry G. ! & Co. Grateful Dead Magic !!!  My goodness, as did these Boys just Love ! to Smoke !! the East Coast !!!  It was like a hobby, or targeted ' Passion ' ... and in '79, dang did they ever still have the Live-Firepower !!!  And yeah ... aimed right-at Portland ! ... Maine !! - on May 13, 1979 !!!  Awesome, for sure ... What a G.D. Backstage Pass !! ... Enjoy !!!!!

Grateful Dead Backstage Pass : 1984 : " Vintage Classic Car Pass !!! " - ' Steal Your Face ! ' on the Side !! : Spring Tour '84 ! " April 23, 1984 ( 4/23/84 : 4/23/1984 ) - New Haven Coliseum - New Haven, Connecticut ( CT ) : 1984 Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. ( GDP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Very-Rare !!!
Dead Fans !!!  No Klunker here ... as This ! my fellow Fans is a Rock & Roll ! Mobile !! - with a Grateful Dead " Steal Your Face ! " painted right-on the side !!!  Ha !  Yes indeed ... as offered here is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the April 23, 1984 ( 4/23/84 ) Show at the New Haven Coliseum in New Haven, CT !  Dead Fans ! ... as here we have one of the Awesome ! " Vintage-Classic Car / Auto " Grateful Dead Backstage Passes that were used during the 1984-'85 G.D. Touring Years ! ... and this one is indeed proudly-representing the 4/23 Night ! in New Haven !!  And talk about a " Hot-Rod ! " ... as this Beauty ! looks Red ! & Ready !! ... with a '
Steal Your Face ! ' on the Driver Side Door !!  Is it a fair guess that the Passenger Side Door also has a ' Steal Your Face ! ' too ? ... hmmm, well - that we might never know - but my guess is a big Yellow Lightning-Bolt ! - because that would look pretty choice -- and it would perfectly match the Bright ! Yellow Background on this Killer Dead Pass !!!  This one really ' jumps-out ' off the frame-like - you know ?  With the Yellow / Red contrast going so nicely.  Let's not forget the serious shiny Chrome ! that this Classic is sporting either.  To my eye, this one even has a little ZZ Top ! look to it - and with the Red / Yellow colors ... I mean can you say ' Eliminator ' ?!!  Yeah !!  So the other question is ... did Bobby go ahead & " Steal the Show " with this Good Lovin' to close the Show ?!  Oooh ... tough call, as Jerry did way more than his part delivering this Smokin' Spanish Jam !! ... and they took it into Truckin' - the way they should have, if you listen to the back-end of this fine outro-jam develop.  Another kinda neat thing that happened here on 4/23 is that the Band played ' Only a Fool ' which was a 1-Time Only ! opportunity for the Dedicated Northeast Dead Fans who must have just loved-that.  A Hot ! Show that was rough & tumble - in a Grate ! way ... naturally.  My goodness do the Dead like to Play-Hard ! for the Northeast Fan Faithful ! ... and Especially !! during this fine-period in their Rock & Roll ! development - the Early/Mid '80's !!!  Yeah - so let's hear it for the Early/Mid-'80's !!!!!  Great Pass ! - Grate ! Show ... and what a Wild-Ride !!!  At least I'm Enjoyin' It ! ... Ha !  Cheers !!! to this fine-piece of Grateful Dead " CT " Rock 'n Roll History !!! ... & " Va-Rooooom !! " to this Nice-Ride !!!  En~Joy !!!!!
