Grateful Dead - Dear Mr. Fantasy / Hey Jude (Foxboro, MA 7/2/89)

"In June 1984, the Grateful Dead performed Dear Mr. Fantasy for the first time, at Red Rocks. A year later, also at Red Rocks, they added Dear Mr. Fantasy by including the Hey Jude coda to the Traffic classic. And then we waited. Finally, in winter 1988, the Dead brought back Hey Jude, again attached to Fantasy, and it would remain this way for a couple of years, until Brent left the building in July 1990." - David Lemieux

God damn was Mickey punishing those drums! What a performance!

Awful singing…. Sorry deadheads

The day Brent died is when the dead ended he was the soul of the band

Did Foxboro, Buffalo, Giants stadium. I was growing shrooms at the time. Ate some on the way and rode in a sleeping bag in the back of my friend's pickup. Woke up tripping in Foxboro at 3am. Did the same earlier in April in Milwaukee.

I feed from the bottom you feed from the top
I live upon morsels you happen to drop
and coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup
If nothing comes down then I'm forced to swim up

On the way upwards the colors come back,
but all on the bottom is blue, gray and black,
the darkness is cold and perception goes wrong
and the night seems to go on incredibly long

pantomime mixtures of heaven and earth,
jumbled events that have less than no worth
time in the forest to dig under rocks
float on the ocean and sleep in a box

or sink just below all the churning and froth
and swim to the light-source, or fly like a moth
so toss away stuff you won't need in the end
but keep what's important - and know who's your friend

so I ask you why
if I'm swimming by
don't you see anything that you'd like to try?🤡👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻

Mickey is killin' it in this one.

Music today has lost ALL its soul. Imo the dead and dead and co was / are the last of their kind. No hard feelings towards the Werks tho, they are also amazing

Almost got stuck out in the big dirt parking lot but I saw the show

crazy eyes ----- love it !!!!!

Jerry really soaring

These are the few moments nirvana was reached and thank God I was there for this one and a few more .............There is Nothing Like A Grateful Dead Concert !

Thank God for You Tube..It is such a blessing to be able to re-live all these amazing performances right at our fingertips...Priceless!!

великолепно!

RIP BRENT MYDLAND! Died on my eighth birthday 😢

go Brent Go Mamn Go ...wired in For sure. Go Brother

You can see how much Brent sees Jerry as Mr Fantasy, just in his eyes

𝗜 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽. ❤🎉

Incredibile 😮🤟

One of the best performances of the Brent era

I hope Mr Windwood has seen and heard this!

Just listen to the dear Mr fantasy video you sent it was cool

I need a miracle

Thanks Jerry and Brent. RIP fellas

UGH.....YUK.

None of the band, looks like the crowd. Bob....he looks like just a guy in short shorts, with a pony tail, in a tank top........and that is the 80's.

That segue of Hey Jude with Dear Mr Fantasy took me in to such a trip. Wow! Excellent!

On fire

Thank you for posting this. I've never seen it before. Been a Deadhead since '79.

This has to be if not the very best live performance ive ever seen. Ive never been a dead head persay but i have always liked and appreciated their musicianship together. But this performance something is different. The vibe its like every member of the band was perfectly in synch. I have to find more songs of this very performance im blown away. 😮

My all time favorite

It’s just a classic case of people helping people. And these guys knew how to help people. I truly believe the music did play the band. Magic poured out of these instruments and no better representatives to portray it. How cool was jerry lol.

Quite possibly the worst live band of all time. Utter rubbish.

Hats off to Traffic but this version right before we lost Brent is priceless ❤

The look on jerrys face as brent is absolutely crushin is so special..

😭😂😇😇 I hope Brent and Jerry are jammin in the next life. RIP gentlemen, true gentle men

Love this version ❤️✊🏿

Mickey hart plays with so much passion

This is what i didnt know i needed today. Fantastic record, I'm so happy i got to hear it for the first time today.

Where does it say "2 more tabs of that Acid and another bottle of that Pinot Grigio " in the song?

this is really amazing. Thank you.

Newly on the bus. Before hopping on, I only knew of jerry and Bobby. Didn’t know who Brent was. He sang with such charisma and strength. That man brought it.

These are the worst sounding great musicians I've ever heard.

Brent is sitting in the driver seat... in the zone!

And people wondered why we followed this band. This right here just doesn't happen all the time. Brent, getting those demons out and the band letting him do what he needed. And to watch Jerry watch with a look of concern, then happy. He was feeling Brent like we all were but some of us have lived thru what Brent was letting out. Jerry could relate.

I hate autocorrect - his😮 name is Brent, not Brett. Asshole machine.

A voice coated with whiskey and dry toast, but Heavenly melodic. RIP Brent 💜

😮 Brent was fantastic.

This is the chunk. Full. So much love. Ripping.
