    Wow ... what a G.D. Backstage Pass !!  A Train Pass !!!  And as we all well-know, you just can't help but Love ! a Train-theme design when it comes the The Grateful Dead !!!  And Dead Fans ... this isn't just any " Train " - as we are looking at a Santa Fe Locomotive Engine Train ... # 99 ! - with Grateful Dead painted on the side !!  I don't know about you - but this one gets my mind thinking " Festival Express " ! ... one of the Finest ! Movie-documentaries Ever ! in the History of Rock 'n Roll ... Whoa !  Holy-Canada !!  An Amazing ! G.D. Train Pass design here for certain ... and I'm pretty certain that this unique & very-popular ( obviously ... ) design was used in only 1984 & 1985 on Backstage Passes for Grateful Dead Tours !  Never used anywhere else, to my knowledge - which is a true-shame, as I would have been Sold !! if they had made this beauty into a T-Shirt !!  Way too few G.D. Train-Shirts ever made, but Thankfully ! the Late / ' Grate ! ' Rick Griffin did just Nail-it ! with the 1987 Dylan & The Dead Tee !  And, there was a pretty-darn-cool ' Train ' Tee made for the Last & Final Tour of the Grateful Dead in 1995 !  Just try & visualize ...  Train-Train ! - just Rollin' down that Track !  And ... for all of you Taper-Deadheads out there - now just think back, if you will ... how excited were we - that this Show was featured as a Nationwide Radio Broadcast !?! ... because, as quite often in this case - we all had these tapes relatively quick !  I'm pretty sure this was one of my 1st " 1984 " G.D. acquisitions ?!?  And ... years & years later - this one even surfaced ' digitally ' ? ... in the form of " God Times For All Time " !  Classic & mysterious title for certain, but - I still kept my analogs ... because as we all well-know - you just cannot fit CD's in a Nak ! ... Ha !!!  Hail to Cassettes ... as I guess they will degrade before I'm even nearly tired of them.  Nothing ! like that crisp, cool & ' warm ' analog sound ... Yes !  Are we having fun yet ?!  Classic ...  But, my serious point being that this Pass is even Cooler ! - as most-all of us have enjoyed this Show for years !!!  Keep in mind too ... as this night was a SEVA Benefit Concert, with The Band ! opening for the Boys !!!  And, this is '84 Garcia Axe-work too we are talking about - and, at least to my ears ... that means that you can rarely ! go wrong.  Red-Hot ... while rollin' this Santa Fe G.D. Train !!!  Certainly ... one of the coolest G.D. Pass designs of all time, when it comes to the Non-Skeleton / Roses / Psychedelic / Dancing Bears, etc. themes.  Fact is, this one is for the Guy or Gal who loves their Trains !!  A most-important part of U.S. American History ... Just-like ! The Grateful Dead !!!  Almost ! 20-Years here So Far here in '84 ... Scarlet > Fire ! - Samson > Terrapin ! --- and a little ' New Orleans ' - Big Boss Man > Iko Iko ( with The Band ! ) for Encore time !!!  Dang ... I mean Mid-'80's G.D. - Whoa ?!? -- speak to me & speak to me Loudly !!!  Smokin' .......  Enjoy this serious G.D. meets Canada ! Backstage Pass Treasure from yesteryear.  A Fantastic ! Grateful Dead & Rock 'n Roll Collectible !! ... & in Train-Style !!!!!!!

    Grateful Dead Backstage Passes : 1994 : " Harley Davidson Motorcycle !!! ... G.D. HD !! " &
    Jerry Garcia ' 52nd ' Birthday !!! - " Crowned Eagle Crest !! " Postage Stamp ! ( ' 25 ? ' ... or " 52 !? " -- Ha ! )
    : Summer Tour '94 ! : July 31, 1994 ( 7/31/94 : 7/31/1994 ) & August 1, 1994 ( 8/1/94 : 8/1/1994 ) - The Palace Of Auburn Hills - Auburn Hills, Michigan ( MI ) : 1994 Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. ( GDP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Very-Rare !!!
    An Awesome ! Harley Davidson Motorcycle !! &
    The Incredible ! " Grateful Dead Eagle Crest !! " ( Art Design by Reonegro ! ) ... for Jerry Garcia's ' 52nd ' Birthday Celebration !! ... ' Both !! ' F
    eatured on ' Official ' Show Credentials Grateful Dead Backstage Passes ! - for the 1994 Summer Tour ! stop ( on 7/31/94 & 8/1/94 ) ... at The Palace Of Auburn Hills !! - in Michigan !!!  The G.D. Cruisin'-Through " The Motor City !! " in H.D. ! & J.G. !! Style & Fashion !!!
    Grateful Dead Fans ! ... Jerry Garcia Fans !! ... Harley Fans ! ... & Fans of " The-Mit !!! " - or, should I say ... " Motor~City !!! ".  Ha !  As offered here are the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic) Grateful Dead Backstage Passes ( sticker-patches / satins ) for the July 31, 1994 ( 7/31/94 ) & August 1, 1994 ( 8/1/94 ) Summer Tour Shows ! at ' The Palace Of Auburn Hills ' - in Auburn Hills, Michigan ( MI ) !! ---
    And, as for the 7/31/94 Pass ... just " Cruisin' in The Mit ! - with The Good Ol' Grateful Dead !! ... on a Harley Davidson Motorcycle !!! ".  Well, and for a certain-type of Grateful Dead Fan - there really can't be any Cooler ! of a Grateful Dead Pass ! .. and that's a Dead Fan that likes to Ride !!  Or, at least someone who can appreciate a Beauty ! of a Harley !! when they see one.  Just like Bobby Weir once said - as his character was " Chargin' His Chopper ... I may be Goin' to Hell in a Bucket ! - but at Least I'm Enjoyin' the Ride !!  Ride, Ride ! - Ride !!! ".  Hah !! - as I most-definitely agree there.  The photos of this Pass pretty much speak for themselves -  as this one is indeed a G.D.-meets-Motorcycle Fan Classic !!  A very-cool " City " design image faintly-shadowed in the background - with ' Grateful Dead ' printed on top - in a way-cool Font !!  And of course below, a photo-image of a Harley Davidson Motorcycle !!! ... and this here Chopper ! looks to be a Minty-Beauty !!  One that someone has Loved ! & very-well cared for.  So, if you love your Bikes ! - and your Grateful Dead ! too !!?  Well then ... " Hey-Now ! " - as this one is indeed For-You !!  This design was used for this '94 Michigan Show - and I don't think ever-again ? - or, if perhaps so ... I personally have never-seen-it.  I'm also thinking that maybe ( & quite-possibly ! ) one of the guys in the Road Crew wanted to get his New Chopper ! featured on a G.D. Pass ! - and the Band said " Sure, sounds-cool to Us ! ".  Gotta love the Grateful Dead - and their ways ... always a Democratic Band ! - when it came to decisions like this.  An Awesome !!! G.D. Backstage Pass - and, if you loves your Harley's !?!  Well, then this is indeed your Lucky-Day ! ... Excellent !!  Oh, and by the way too - this Show was Pretty-Hot !!! ...  Touch Of Grey - Spoonful ! - Samson - New Speedway Boogie ( the Altamont tune ! ) - Truckin' - He's Gone - Good Lovin' ... and the Super-Duper " kick-down " from the Band on this Fine ! Michigan-Dead Night >>> The Midnight Hour !!!!  And yeah ... Always-Remember to " Enjoy the Ride !!! ". ---
    And, as-for this 8/1/94 Pass ...
    A Very-Rare ! G.D. " Jerry Garcia Birthday " Show !! on the '94 Summer Tour !!!  Wow~Oh~Wow !!! - as this Amazing ! G.D. Pass has so-much going on with it - that's it's almost insane ?!?  First-off ... the sound of Jerry Garcia enjoying his ' 52nd Birthday ' in the Motor-City ?!! - I Love-it !!!  Sure hope he went to the Ol' Joe ! to catch a Wings Game !!  Hey, who knows ... maybe he did !  Ha !!  So, just when was the last time the Grateful Dead played on Jerry's Birthday ... way back in 1982 ! in Oklahoma City !! ... at " The Zoo !!! ".  That's my best stab ' In The Dark ' - right off the top of my Dead Head ! - Ha !  I also know Jerry played a J.G.B. Show down in Irvine, CA in 1992 on his B-Day - and even " Jerry Masks ! " were being handed-out to the Fans !!  So, it's definitely pretty cool also to spend a B-Day ! at The Palace !!  And second-off ... this here Reonegro-designed " Postage Stamp " style G.D. Crest ! logo is quite the rare design - in that it was also used for the 1990 Europe Tour ! - for Germany !!  And, I'm also quite certain that was the ' only ' other-time that it was used ... right here ! in Michigan ! - for Garcia's 52nd B-Day !!  Which is pretty-darn funny ... as 25 is indeed " 52 " spelled Backwards !!! -- Hah-hah-HaH !!!!!  As I'm thinking there might have been a little GDP " Prankster-Action ! " going on here - but, who's really to say.  But, as for this Beauty ! of a " Crowned-Eagle G.D. Crest " Art Design ( Reonegro ! ) - it was originally designed for the " 25th Year " Anniversary of the Grateful Dead !!!  Which, of course for all obvious reasons - is Way-Cool !  Debuted in '90 - and used again here for the '94 Summer Tour !! - for a G.D. Pit-Stop ! - right in " The~Mit !! ".  Because it-does look like a ' Glove ' you know ?!  I'm a Mit-Fan ! and always have been.  A Beautiful-Pair ! of G.D. Passes for the Collector ! - or for any G.D. & Jerry ! Fan !!  Where You there ?? ... Singin' a little " Happy Birthday Jerry !!! ".  Awesome ! ...  Real-Awesome !! -- Enjoy !!!!
