( GDP ) - Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : Very-Rare ' Non-Spectrum ' G.D. Philly Show !!!A Rare ! Grateful Dead Show in Philly on Spring Tour '84 & not-at ' The Spectrum ' ... instead, at the " Philadelphia Civic Center !! " -- G.D. Blooming Red Roses !!!!!
Dead Fans ... and very-likely Philly ! & Mid-Atlantic Heads !! Whoa !?! The '84 Spring Tour run stop at The Spect ..... Nope ! -- but instead, at the Philadelphia Civic Center !! This is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) G.D. Backstage Pass ( sticker-patch / satin ) for the April 21, 1984 ( 4/12/84 ) Show at the Philadelphia Civic Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania !!! The Grateful Dead are in Town in Philly ! ... and are not ?!? playing The Spectrum !? You bet ... and, this was the Very-1st time that a G.D. Show went off at the Civic ! ... Since 1974 !! As the Band had played the Civic only one-time, on the '74 Summer Tour Back East swing ! And, as for the storied ( & beyond ! ) History between the Grateful Dead & The Spectrum ... well, that goes back to 1968 ! -- and, this Good Ol' Grateful Dead is represented Perfectly ! on Dick's Picks #36 ... the Final Dick's Picks release ! And, from 1968 through 1995 ... the Band played over 50-Shows at The Spectrum ! Now That ! is Rock & Roll ... and, quite the music business partnership too ! 50 + !!! Pretty sweet, indeed ... Well, but this here Pass ? - this isn't '74 that we are talking about on this '84 Spring Tour Stop ... as we are talking Garcia - Weir - B.K. - Phil - Mick ... & Brent !! And seriously ... this whole-entire-run -- all Three ( 3 ) Shows 4/19/84 - 4/20/84 - & 4/21/84 ... were Red-Hot !!!!! In fact, I've gotten into more conversations than I can even remember ! over the years & years, and years ! where multiple-folks have mentioned that this Philly Civic run really was " The " run of the 1984 Spring Tour ! And as for some other Folks ? Well, as sometimes the talk of town has been that pound for pound ... this run was " The-Best " of 1984 ! Wow, and Man ... I don't know. For years ... I always thought the 4/17/84 Niagara Falls Show was blistering ... and specifically -- ( I already hope you know what I'm gonna say here ) -- >>> The Help > Slip ! > Franklin's !!!!! Wow ... But, in all honesty - it took me a while ( for certain ), but there are parts, segments, rifts, time-changes that truly put this Philly Civic 4/21/84 version right ! up-there on that G.D. " Top-Shelf ". I suppose it's 6 to 1, and a 1/2 dozen to another ... you know ? But ... where in Niagara Falls, the Franklin's leads into Women Are Smarter ( then Eyes ) ... whereas the one in Philly on 4/21 -- Whammo ! ... Help > Slipknot ! > Franklin's > ..... Playin' !!! > China Doll !! So, you know - strength in numbers, in the greater whole ... and in the Grate-er Good !! They are flat-out Fiery ! And this energy really goes all the way through this 3-Show run, with of course 4/21 being the last of the three. I think I need to use that Good Ol' terminology here - that I have always ! loved ... " Eighties Greaties are Good ! for the Nak !!! ". They Hammer ! this run ... com-pletely. And then, immediately following - it was 2 in New Haven - 2 in Providence - 2 at Nassau ... and then, back Out West ! - for a date with Silva Hall ! ... in Eugene !!! And trust me, She's Really ! Pretty !! Ha !!! Well, some G.D. Backstage Passes are ' Extra-Special ' for all kinds of different & cool ! reasons ... and this Pass is most-Definitely ! one of them. Blooming Roses !!! " In & Out Of The Civic We Go !?! ". Well, not quite-That ! ... as you can't always have Everything ! in Life. What a Classic !!! G.D. stand. 4/21/1984 !! ... at the Philadelphia Civic Center !!! ... Enjoy !!!!!
