Rare !! & Amazing !!! 2-Pass ' Complete ! ' Set - for the 2nd to Last Grateful Dead Show run - in Canada !!! -- Spring 1990 Tour ! at the Copps Coliseum - in Hamilton Ontario Canada !!!!!
G.D. Fans !!! Wow ! ... the Band in Canada - on Spring '90 Tour !!!!! Here offered indeed is the Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) " Complete ! " Backstage Pass Set ( 2-Pass Set !! ) - for the Grateful Dead Shows at the Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada on March 21 & 22, 1990 ( 3/21/1990 & 3/22/1990 ) !!! Spring '90 Tour North ! of the Border ... in Canada ! And, come to think of it ?? -- I think this was indeed the 2nd, to last time that the Grateful Dead ever ! played Canada ... with, the Last & Final run of Canadian Shows happening 2-Years - Two ' Spring ' Tours, in fact ... later in March of 1992 - once again at the Copps Coliseum. And, for me personally -- these Shows have had a special place in my heart for the last 35-Years ! now here today. Whoa ! ... Time-Flies !! And, it's not only just because the Tapes just Smoke !! with Fluid & " On ! " G.D. Performances ... but, because the story ( specifically behind the 3/22/90 Show ) was a pretty cool one for me. You know - one of those in-the-right-place ! " at " the-right-time !! Yeah, so - I didn't even actually go to these Shows, because the Band was hitting the East Coast / Mid-Atlantic real-hard for this Spring 1990 Tour - and, they were slated to play pretty much all the G.D. Hot-Houses that you would think they might. So ... Summer Tour '92 rolls around, and I decide to do the last 10-Shows of the '92 Summer Tour - from Charlotte, to Buckeye Lake ! And, in one of these ' Parking-Lots ' - Star Lake, I think ? -- that ' Guy ' came around with the backpack, and in it ... Live G.D. VHS Videos ! So, he actually had one of these Copps Shows for sale ?!? And, I was like ... I'm so ... " IN " !!! And, you know - it was only like $20 bucks ?! But ... what a treasure to find & behold ! - at least in this ... let's just say pre-internet, pre-cell phone, and ... way-pre DVD Era ! ( A much better time too, right ? Ha !! ) So ... between the Star Lake & Chicago Shows ... my buddy & I got our hands on a VHS player ... and threw this baby in ! And Wow !!?!! - I mean this 3/22 was Just ! as advertised, and at this point - I had only heard like one SBD Set of the 4 total ?!! So -- this was indeed one of these special occasions, where - you don't go to the Show, then here it was a Smoker ! - then you wait for the tapes, etc., etc. -- but, this time - the order was different, because we were actually sitting couches ! ( Ha ! ) -- and watching a darn-good recording of this one ... which, to put into perspective -- was Super-Cool ! way back then. Heck, if I looked hard enough - I probably still ! have that tape. But, believe me ... it's been ' Loved ' !!! So yeah - Thanks ! for listening to this here little G.D. tale of yester-year ... because when I glance an eye upon this Amazing ! Reonegro-designed Pass Set ... it just makes me think of my VHS story - which always ! delivers a Smile !!! And, what I've found - is that is indeed what this life is all-about. You betcha ... So, this is the ' Complete ! ' 2-Pass Set from the Band's 2nd to last journey to play Canada ( Ontario ! ) - and, the 3/21/90 Pass has some serious Native-Art ! going on, for certain - with ! some seriously-amazing ' Earth-Tone ' colors all throughout. And ... the 3/22/90 Pass simply Rocks ! a complex & detailed Dragon !!! Wow !! You know, kind of like those guys that you would see magically appear at the Oakland Coliseum - at say ... a Chinese New Year Show !! Wow ... and the colors on this one, once again - are just Stellar ! More water-like, in its color selection - with some flowers too ! But . . . what I have Always ! thought looks the coolest about these two Passes, is when they are ' Together ' - because they match & clash ! ... in such a Cool ! looking way. And too, needless to say ... these are designs that were not used much at all, by the Band. Maybe twice each ? I can actually only think of the 3/21/90 Pass being used at Cal State '90 ( 5/5 or 5/6 '90 ? ) - and, I'm thinking that the ' Dragon ' was maybe also used another time - but, I can't think of when or where ... and, you bet I take these little G.D. and Rock & Roll Treasures ! pretty seriously. And, I always have ... so Very-Cool ! - and, as you can just tell from the photos alone, a very-very special pair indeed. Go Ahead & Frame these together ! -- and, maybe even in Canada !! too. Excellent ... Enjoy !!!!!
