    Grateful Dead Fans ... who believe that Love ! is All You Need !! -- well, here indeed is the G.D. Pass for Valentine's Day 1986 !!!  Offered here is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the February 14, 1986 ( 2/14/1986 ) Show at the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center - in Oakland, California !!!  This is the " Valentine's Day " Show Pass, from a Lightning-Hot ! 5-Show stand at the Kaiser, and as the Photos well-show - this Pass has a G.D. Lightning-Bolt !! right on the Pass !!!  This '86 Oakland run took place on 2/8/86 - 2/9/86 - 2/11/86 - 2/12/86, and 2/14/86 - with not only the 2nd Show being a Celebration for ' Chinese New Years ! ' - and ! - the 3rd Show being a Celebration for ' Mardi Gras ! ' ... but, the Last/Final Show of this run Celebrated  " Valentine's Day !!! ".  There's really nothing-cooler than when a G.D. Pass recognizes the Holiday ! at hand, with the actual design on the Pass ... but, this one here truly went above & beyond with a fresh, cool & Awesome ! Pass design ... in the form of a Grateful Dead Lightning-Bolt Love Heart !!!  Red on one side, Blue on the other side - and, a Yellow Lightning-Bolt right in the middle !  With of course too, " Grateful Dead " in just a Wild ! & Stellar font !  A nice clean white background too on this one, which really makes this design Explode !  No Our Love Will Not Fade Away !!!  Right !?  Right On ... I say.  Being a G.D. Holiday Pass, this one is obviously an awesome addition to any Fan's Collection -- but, even more so... it could make the Ultimate !! " Valentine's Day " Gift ! for that extra special Sweetheart ! in your life - you know, that one that just also Loves ! their Grateful Dead !!!  Well-over 30-Years Old ! now too ?!?  So incredibly hard to believe, but ... at the same time - it's been just about ' 30-Years ' that I've been listening to this Stellar '86 Kaiser run ... so, I suppose it actually makes perfect-sense !  One of the Cooler ! Mid-'80's G.D. Pass designs, for really - all reasons obvious !!  Because Love is All You Need !!!  Ha ! ... I most-definitely hear that !!  " Happy Valentine's Day ! " to You & Yours !! ... & Enjoy !!!!!

    Grateful Dead Backstage Pass : 1993 : " Serp

    nt Dragon
    !!! " :
    April 2, 1993 ( 4/2/93 : 4/2/1993
    ) - Nassau Coliseum - Uniondale, New York ( NY ) : 1993 Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. ( GDP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Spring Tour '93 ! : Amazing ! " Serpent Dragon !! " Art Design ! : Very-Rare !!
    Grateful Dead Fans !!!  Wow ... what a Stunning ! Serpent Dragon !! art design on this G.D. Pass - and indeed ... for New York !  At the G.D. Long Island Home-Away-From-Home ! ... the Nassau Coliseum !!!  This is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the '93 Spring Tour Show at the Nassau Coliseum - in Uniondale, New York ( NY ) of April 2, 1993 !  The ' Middle ' 3rd Night - of a 5-Night Grateful Dead stand - inside the Proud Home of the New York Islanders !  Awesome ...  Check out the photos on this one, and really - what you will see is one of the Strongest ! & Coolest !! Grateful Dead Backstage Pass designs of the Late-'80's & Early-'90's !!  The shiny tan satin on this Pass truly serves as a Stellar ! Background for this nothing-short of Amazing ! " Serpent Dragon ! " design, which shows its dark design-lines Beautifully ! with the color-contrast offered.  I believe this Killer ! Pass design debuted in the Late-'80's, with the 10/26/89 Miami Arena version coming directly to my mind - with that one, being a different color variation, in just black & white.  But this one, with the color-shininess ... just radiates way-nicely !  Sort of a Fancy-Dragon here, if I may.  Though, at the same time - I'm not sure this Dragon would dig being called ' Fancy ' - as he Might As Well prefer ... ' Mean ' !!!  Or, maybe better yet ... just ' Strong & Wise ' !!!  But, one thing I can say ... I don't know if this would have made the best Pass design just 24-hours prior, as that Nassau Show was for the April Fools 1993 Celebration !!!  You know ... the one where Phil dressed up as " Barney " the Dinosaur - and the Band got sued !?!  Now that's ! a pure-classic ... I mean Whoa ?!? Corporate America - have you ever heard of Free-Advertising !?!  I'll never forget that one, for certain ... Ha !  Wow ... I will certainly say though - this little period here was yet Another ! seriously-impressive resurgence for the the Good Ol' Grateful Dead !!?!  In fact, it really was right around this time ( Spring Tour '93 ), that they really began a solid & consistent playing-live hot streak - that arguably continued all the way through Winter Tour '94 ( February in Oakland !! ) - and, I suppose you could also argue that this impressiveness really continued all the way into both the Spring & Summer '94 Tours - but, as most could agree ... there was certainly some hit & obviously some miss too.  But, on a " Good Night " in this Era?  Whoa !!!  And, as we all know ... the Band just Always ! tried to deliver the hot & heavy goods - when in New York !  No matter where, may it be at Knickerbocker - Giants - M.S.G. - Nassau - I mean you name it ... as there sure-were some high standards from the Way-Loyal ! G.D. Fans - and the Band ... well, they totally knew-it !  Personally, I think this Spring Tour '93 run was kind of the beginning of things rolling downhill again - and, I mean downhill in a nice & easy way.  Versus up-hill, which - I personally equate to trying to have 2 Keys players in a band.  It may work with some bands ?  But, with the G.D. - you've already got 2 Killer Drummers - Bobby Ace - Phil on Lead-( Bass )-Guitar ... and, that other guy too - who, I personally-consider to be the " Real " King of Rock & Roll !!!  And yep, even in '93.  Ha !  And, as far as this 5-Night Nassau run goes ?  Well, you could argue ( pretty-easily ? ) that this 4/2/93 Show was indeed the Hottest !  I mean hey, even though it's just on ' Paper ' ... let's put it this way -- Set I ' Opener ' = Help > Slip ! > Franklin's !!! ... and, as for the Set II ' Opener ' ? = Scarlet > Fire !!!  Dang ... Blammo !  Digital-Dead ! just bringing the Heat ! in the Good Ol' Nassau Coliseum !!!  A pretty respectable Terrapin ! too right in the thick of things too ... Very-Nice !!
    Yeah, so - I must be sincere here ... as I pretty much think that " Everything ! " Rocks about this 4/2/93 Backstage Pass ... with a Dead Show that's tough to beat - and a Pass design on this one that really cannot-be-beat !  Enjoy this serious
    -piece of ' both ' Grateful Dead ! & Rock 'n Roll ! History !!! in Dungeon & Dragons style - for '93 Nassau / in New York ! style ...
    just Fantastic !! -- " The Serpent Dragon !!! ".  Enjoy !!!!!
