of Diamonds live album. Killer Picasso Moon to start. Nice rare Good Time Blues and Built to Last. Smoking Deal to finish the first set. Man 89 never fails to rock my nuts off. KICKASS Darkstar to start second set into Playing in the Band. They actually come back to Playing in the Band again after Uncle John for ten more minutes and then once more at the very end of the show. They also come back to Dark Star! Whew!

- ★★★★★ · A show of discovery and a new face · Dylan M · 2009
This show will always be overshadowed by 1989.10.09 because it was the "first" Dark Star (of 85-89, of course) and the first reprise of playin' sandwiching UJB. The jams might be longer that night, but there is something about this show that just wreaks of discovery. This tour was special for the boys, Brent was as comfortable as he would ever get with the band, and this fall tour and the following spring tour would show some of his most colorful work.
- ★★★★★ · THE DAY I WAS BORN · deadhead7824 · 2006
oh yes..... what an amazing show by the boys here. chills still run though me every time i hear them go into dark star. it's almost as if they get right to where they're gunna do it...the crowd gets excited, and then u think oh...almost....so close... i thought i almost heard- OH MY GOD!!! its dark star. you go wild. u and the rest of the crowd just know what they're witnessing here in 1989.
- ★★★★★ · My first Dark Star · CT Deadhead · 2010
At this point in my life I had seen 70 or 80 shows maybe, and Dark Star was one of the legendary songs only the old deadheads from the 60's and early 70's could talk about. But '89 was the year the Dead brought it back. Jerry was interviewed on 102.7 WNEW that afternoon and said there was a good chance they would play it tonight. I was on pins and needles all evening while enjoying a great show.
