k Griffin, that is
- as there is no
other Fillmore Poster
artis
t just
quite-like him !  Well, and if you Toured in '82 - the '80's - or maybe-even ? the '90's - then you will be well-aware of this Fanta
stic ! " Uncle Sam Smokin' ! Skeleton Winged-Skull ! " Art Desi
gn !!  As this was definitely " The ! "
Official GDP T-Shirt to have ! -
from this A
mazing ! 1982 Touring-Year of the Grateful Dead !  I myself
alw
ays think of t
wo main things when it comes to '82
Live Dead - firstly, Garcia's tone & fret-board attack !  As this was a totally transitional period - that really started in '81 where Jerry got
both quicker & heavier !  I showed one of m
y Friends the
3/28/81 video not too long ago
( with
The Who ! ) - and my Buddy's comment was a True-Classic ! on that day ... and I'll never-ever forget it ... " Wow man, Jerry's almost playing-Metal ?!? ".  You-Betcha ! he was
!!  Totally-true in so many ways - as during
certain
ja
m-p
oints &
ascensions
- this was a " C
ollective
" beefed-up Grateful Dead Live - with some Serious-Attack ! & Pure-Muscle !!  And Secondly ...
these were the early-days of the true emergence of
the
'80's-esque Bobby Weir !! that many Fans love & li
ve
for
!  Much vocal improv -
that some fans cherished, and other fans, well ... you know - Hah !!
I mean let's just p
ut it
this
-way - as I mean how-else - would you even put it ?!  It's 1982 - like what
? well-over 35-
years ago ? ...
the time is Right ! for the
Grateful Dead '82 Fall Tour - and not only are you cat
ch
ing it in New York ! ... but you're even doing it at Syracuse U. !!!  Dang ... I mean where is that " Time-Machine " !?!?! ... Pre-Gaits too !!?  Ha !  And, on a more ' serious ' note ( kinda ... ) - this 9/24/82 Show is actually " The-Last " Grateful Dead " East Coast " Show of the Entire 1982 G.D. Touring-Year !  So, in essence ... a good listen to this Show - will really dial you in on the overall ' culmination ' of just exactly wear 1982 took out beloved Grateful Dead !  This is a Smoker ! of a Show - and is really so-representative of what they were collectively capable of when it came to the - Emotional-playing ... The Heat ! ... The Jams ! ... The Interplay ! ... The Song Selection & Rotation ! ... and, most of all really ... The Tempos ! & The Tones !!  Point really being ... you could just so-tell the Grateful Dead were Really ! still heading Huge-Places ! by the Sheer & Consistent Magic !! in a Show like on this 9/24/1982 Syracuse Night.  And, heck ... they only just played " Touch Of Grey " Live for the 1st-Time-Ever ! at the Cap Centre in The MD ! just less than 10-days prior ... on 9/15/1982.  So ... you can see my point.  And, if you don't - just go & through in a " Dead Video " from say ... the 1983 - 1984 - 1985 - 1986 - 1987 - 1988 - 1989 - or 1990 Tours !!!  As there indeed is " The Proof ! ".  Pure " G.D. Magic !!! " that didn't just extend ' into ' the 1980's ... but, instead extended ' all-the-way-through ' the 1980's !!! - and even into the Early-1990's too !  Jerry was Strong ! - the Band was Hot ! - and the Fans were Rabid ! ... for more & more - ' Live-Dead ' !!!
I mean people ... this 9/24/82 Syracuse Show had a China > Rider !!! in the 8/9 spot - to Close ! the 1st Set !!!  Just kinda-like the '89 Frost Show !!!  Such-Magic !!!  Such Fiery ! & Infectious !! '80's Dead !!!  " '80's Dead For President ! " - or at least I say ... Enjoy !!!!!

Grateful Dead Sticker : 1983 : Richmond '83 ! - Pink Rose !! : Vintage Original '83 Mikel / Ethan Sticker !!! : Fall Tour '83 ! : October 8, 1983 ( 10/8/83 : 10/8/1983 ) : Richmond Coliseum - Richmond, Virginia ( VA ) : 1983 Mikel / Ethan : Very-Rare !!!
Vintage-Original ! Grateful Dead 1983 Fall Tour Mikel Lot Sticker !!! ... 10/8/1983 at the Richmond Coliseum ! in Richmond, Virginia !! -- A Rare !!! " Pink Rose !! " G.D. Lot Beauty !!!
Grateful Dead Fans !! ... who know a Good Ol' Vintage-Original ! Tour-Dated Sticker - when they see one !  Offered here is the Mikel / Ethan Sticker made Venue-Specific ! for the Grateful Dead 1983 Fall Tour stop - at the Richmond Coliseum in Richmond, Virginia !!!  Wow ... and one of the Way-Cool ! " Early " ( 1983 ! ) Mikel-Stickers too -- the G.D. " Rose ! " version from '83 !!!  And, in the case of this particular Richmond, VA Show ... a ' Pink ' Rose !  A very-nice color contrast indeed, with a purple border ! too.  Mikel created & distributed these Venue-Specific ! Stickers - along with an up-to-date G.D. Newsletter following Dead Shows on Tour from 1983 until 1985.  1983 featured this " Rose " design - 1984 featured " Bertha " ( Skull & Roses ! ) - and 1985 featured a " Steal Your Face ! " design.  In many ways, one of the most Genuine ! Commemorative Tour items ... Fan-made & from the Lot !  So-Cool, Collectible, and now - actually 35-Years Old !  Whoa ?!? ... does time ever Fly !  Well, despite what others might say ... as I have indeed heard opinions vary, over the decades -- I personally believe this 10/8/83 Richmond Show to be a flat-out Cooker !!!  Now, I'm not going to go as far as saying that this Show is to '83 - as Richmond 11/1/85 is to '85 ( Whoa !!!?!!! - right ?! ) ... but, it is Hot !  And, it's the Fall Tour opener too - on this '83 Fall Tour Back East swing ... coming off of the ( " Legendary " ) 9/24/83 Watsonville ! Show - where Garcia uncorks one of the down & dirtiest Uncle John's Bands ... of All-Time !  In, naturally ... the distortion-heavy era.  Wow ... Bring it Jerry ! - as That ! indeed is the ballpark that my ears like to play in ... right-on.  But, as for Richmond - they take a good part of Set I to get ' settled-in ' ... with a Hot ! Stranger Opener - Minglewood ! - Cassidy - West L.A. ! ... and, an ' of-note ' Bucket > Deal Closer !!!  At this point, you're thinkin' all Blues - Heavy & Hard ! ( minus the F.O.T.D. - Ha ! ) ... but, Set II mixes it up just about as nicely as it can get mixed-up ... and with '83 Fall style Fire ! & Attack !!  Day Job > Playin' > Crazy Fingers > Drums / Space !  See ... what I mean ?  And then from there ... it's all like a Good Ol' Train ! Rollin'-Down the G.D. Track ! - with naturally, a little Wharf Rat in the middle - in the Jerry sleeper spot ( dang, I hate using that term - but, it does fit here like a glove ! ) - and, especially, when the Rat has Truckin' > Spoonful on one side -- and a Way-Nasty ! Good Lovin' on the other !!  And, not quite to '85 " Gloria " standards, I'll admit -- but, Ace sure does get ' Loose as a Moose ! ' on this Good-Lovin' -- Yeah ! ... " Hah !! ".  To, you know ... use proper ' Terminology ' of the " 1983 " Time - Place & Era ... Red-Hot ! '83 Grateful Dead time !!!  Right-on, I say - and even right in Richmond ! too ... way-way long before the ' Strawberry ' Amp. was even any kind of dream ... Ha !  Pretty-awesome, for certain.  This Show deserves a listen, without any-question ... and, as for this Crazy-Awesome ! Vintage Mikel Sticker ?  Well, you know ... it completely-speaks for itself. ... Enjoy !!!!!
