( GDP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Very-Rare !!!!!
    " Grateful Tarsier " Fans !!! ... & Ventura-Dead !! Fans too - for that matter ... Wow !!!  " Twenty Years So Far !!! " - in Good Ol' Ventura, CA !!  Offered here is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) Grateful Dead Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the July 14, 1985 ( 7/14/85 ) Ventura County Fairgrounds Show in Ventura, California ( CA ) on the 1985 Summer Tour !! ... " Twenty Years So Far !!! ".  Wow !!  Well fellow Dead Fans ... I think it is quite-fair to say that this here might be the Only ! Backstage Pass in All ! of " Rock 'n Roll History " to feature one of the Cutest - Coolest - & Craziest looking Furry little Primates ! of All-Time !?! ... a " Tarsier " !!!  And, as you can see from the photos - this fuzzy little guy/gal ? has got a real-good seat up in that Tree, and is all Beady-Eyed ... Naturally ! --- because he/she is featured on the G.D. 7/14/85 Ventura Pass !!!!!  Whoa !!?!  I mean when this was made well-over 30-Years Ago ! as an ' Official ' G.D.P. Backstage Credential Pass - you had to think that this Cali Show might be hot & all ... considering it's '85 Summer Tour Dead !! - and it's at Ventura !!! - but ... who would have even known the complete Magnitude !?!?!  Wow ... I don't know what else to say, so I hope you have heard it yourself - or better yet, were-there !  I mean ... " Trouble Ahead - Jerry's in Red !!! ".  They just Smoke !!! these Two ( 2 ) Ventura Shows ... this 7/14 Show !! - and the 7/13 Show too !  It's always pretty-fun listening to both of these - and then trying your ' best ' to pick a favorite ... pound for pound - I tend to think this 7/14 Show edges out 7/13 all-in-all ... but then, you get to thinking about Both ! the Saturday Night > Fire ! Opener & Cryptical > Other One !! on 7/13 -- and, then my brain goes back to calling it a ' Draw ' ... so, how about if You tell Me ??!  Point being ... This ! is the type of stuff that we need Dire-ly ! in the form of Road Trips - Dave's Picks - or ... whatever you want to ' call it '.  I had a Dream the other night that the Entire 1985 Summer Tour ! was Pro-released as a ' Box Set ' !?!... in " Entirety !!!?!! ".  But, then ... I woke up.  So ... I tried to go back to sleep again - Really-Fast !!!  Ahhhh ... reality ?!??  Ok, ok - sorry ... I'm getting a tad silly here - so, let's get back to the " Tarsier !!! ".  What a Grateful Creature !!  I mean this fuzzy little thing is just like All " Eyes Of The World " !!! ... Ha !  No, but seriously - I actually looked it up ... because I was totally curious, and their ' Eyes ' are not just super-beady & super-glassy, but ... they are like 16mm in diameter - Each !!  Wowie ... and, at Ventura '85 these would be Quite ! handy - considering the number that Garcia does on Tiger's Fretboard !!!  Gui-Tar-Clinic !!!!!!!!!!  Hey, but not to sell all the Boys short by any means, as these are just all-systems-go Shows where everybody is a Cookin' !  Plus, the local news was even there on 7/13 - shooting a little Video for T.V. ! - so, you had to look serious & at your best ... stage charisma, right ?  You betcha - as this is '85 Live-Dead !!! that we are talking-about here ... 20-Years So Far !!!!!  Now you just Know ! that when this Tarsier went climbing down this Tree - he had to be tempted to hit that Merch. Stand ! - and buy a G.D. Tee !!  So, if you're ever in Southeast Asia - and, you see a Older & Wiser ! Tarsier wearin' a G.D. Tie-Dye !??  Ha !!!  It's probably that Estimated > Eyes ! > Truckin' > Smokestack that got-him !  Or -- that Massive !!! China > Rider !!!!!  Smart-little-thing ... Ventura '85 !!!!! -- Enjoy !!!!!!!

History !  And, though it is virtually-impossible to pick the " Best " Show of this 1985 Grateful Dead Celebratory Touring-stand ... this ' middle-night ' Show here - 11/21/85 is without any-question " in " that conversation !  Sure, I mean there were a few Shows from the Jaw-Dropping '85 Summer Tour that probably beat it pound-for-pound ( 6/30/85, etc., etc..  ;-)) ) - as far as the element of Surprise ! & Delivery !! by the Band, and for the Dead Fans ... what happened on 11/21/85 in Oak-Town ... it's tough to beat !  One of my Buddies ( who had notched over 450 + Shows - by way back in 1994 ! ) was Backstage for this one, and puts it at one of the Top-5 ! Shows that he had ever seen the Band play ... dating back to '79.  They just flat-out Smoked !!! this Show.  Holy-Grateful Dead !!?!!!  Considering the Show-Opener ?  Heck, they could have just played That ! ... took a bow, and then Walked ! - and it would have been ok by me ... Big Boy Pete !!!!!!!  First time since '70 !!!  And ... just So-Hot ! with Garcia chops being so Fat ! out of that Silver-Faced Twin ... Pure-'85 Attack !!!  And, if you've seen Shows at the Kaiser ??  Well, you know ... Ha !  What a Room !!  But, they didn't just walk-off after tune # 1 ( Ha ! )... and, instead - it just kept on a Rollin' ! ... like an '85 Train ! Rollin' on-down the Track !!  Shakedown ! to open Set II ... and, a Shakedown with Muscle !!  Playin' leads into She Belongs To Me !!!!!  So-sweet ... even with Garcia slight-bit of vocal challenges.  Hey, I mean when Garcia Plays Dylan ... I'm in !  The Other One is just just Phil Zone Hot-House ! ... Ka-Boom ! -- with the Wharf Rat to follow ... and then Playin' again ! on the Reprise !!!  And that, into Gimmie Some Lovin' ! ... Dead Sync ! into the Midnight Hour !!!!!  And, believe me ... Ace make this-one Pay !  Whoa ?!!!  Bobby-Weir ... in 1985 !!!!!  So-killer ...  And, Then ! - they walk-off, after completely Crushing ! the Home Turf Henry J. ... only to return -- and deliver Walking The Dog !!!!!!!!!!!  Wow !?!?!  Unbelievable . . .  Needless to say, 11/21/85 was a Beyond-Huge !! day for the Good Ol' ( 1980's !!! ) Grateful Dead !  11/20/85 Set II opened with Iko ! into a way-sweet Sailor > Saint !  And on 11/22/85 the Bucket ! smoked right out of the gate into a noteworthy Sugaree ... the Let It Grow ! was reaching for certain - with a Touch > Estimated to open Set II.  The Lovelight came out to play in grand fashion, as did The Dew !!  But, even the Boys might tell you themselves ... 11/21/85 at the Good Ol' Henry J. is just one of those Magical ! Grateful Dead nights ... where the Music !! completely played The Band !!!  What a Grateful Dead run ... Whoa ! - " Twenty Years So Far !!! " - right at the Kaiser ! in Good Ol' Oaktown !! ... Enjoy !!!!!
