- "Debuting in September 1982, Throwing Stones rather quickly found a home as the penultimate song of many Grateful Dead second sets in the final decade+ of the Dead's touring activities. Usually followed by Not Fade Away, Throwing Stones was a powerful Weir-Barlow song with a political message, a rarity for the Grateful Dead. Now, nearly forty years after its debut, its message still resonates, perhaps more strongly than ever." - David Lemieux

Ain’t that the truth!
"Penultimate"
This is the one that forced me to look at myself
I was at that show in 82 at the shoreline. It was awesome. First time I heard touch of Grey also which I first thought was a cover of tangled up in blue
Wow, does this song mean everything now. I just posted it again. I hope everyone gets how important it still is. The fight continues, and makes all the difference in2020..
You know sometimes even among deadheads Bobby doesn't get to appreciation he deserves. One of the most unique guitar players ever
Very compelling singer too!
WRS, Cassidy, Music Never Stopped, Saint-Sailor, Throwing Stones, They are crazy....Bobby is killer
Probably had something to do with the way he was mixed
Appreciation central, right here😂!!!
@@toddjohnson271yesssss! I’m a fool for all the Barlow/Weir business!
‘By and by, again, the morning sun will rise, but the darkness never goes from some men’s eyes’... more true now than ever before.
None but Jesus! He alone removed the darkness from my eyes! Love this song, powerful and timeless… but had to chime in and give Jesus props… only He can fully remove the darkness!
Critical Race Theory is evil. Schools are doing identity erosion and ideological re-molding. Be warned it's no joke and it's no misunderstanding. It's evil in motion.
So true guys.....
@@victorwright370 Opinion noted.
Mitch, Lyndsey, Ted ….
Maybe we all need to hear this song again in 2021
Agreed
This song is very relevant today
And in 2022.
Add 2022 !
Maybe you need to take off your mask and realize people have been breathin within 6 feet of each other for thousands of years. All you deadheads are conformist, cowardly pieces of shit and your vax passport supporting satanists can't die soon enough.
a girl I loved was the only one to come visit me in college on her way to this show. That was the last time I saw her till now, dancing in the crowd. smiles and tears
Damn the feels 🥲
feels x a billion here!
what a story man...... wow
God bless you. I feel you.
😿
Love ya man.
This song’s lyrics will never lose its relevancy 🌎
They seemed to be extremely interested in making timeless songs
Hopefully sometime it’ll lose its relevancy
GarlTsagan well they succeeded in that regard
Sivart Kralc we evolved from apes, maybe we should devolve back into apes so we can coexist. OR... everyone on earth should drop acid at the same time for a little peace, love, and understanding ✌️
Neil Young - After The Gold Rush
"IT'S ALL TO CLEAR, WE ARE ON OUR OWN......." LONG LIVE THE GRATEFUL DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOO
I love the tone change, from the harsh realities of society to the most uplifting solo ever, like we can find beauty in life even though there's a lot of hard times
Look how effortlessly Jerry plays !! Like he’s sitting in the sun
I was at this mind blowing show. The second set was absolutely incredible! Nothing like ringing in the New Year with the Grateful Dead! 💀🌷🍻😎🌈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
You sure have that right! i was on the balloon crew for this new year show and my mind was thoroughly blown, God bless Bill Graham and this most special Band... and You Stagger Lee:) Peace and Love
Me too! Only west coast shows, suuuuuch joy!!
@@joshb23
I saw more than 300 Dead and 100 JGB in Cali. Great place for a Head to live. California! A prophet on the burning shore! ⛵🚤🌅💀🌷
@@staggerlee4979 The Promised Land indeed! NYC was my home turf for shows, and Virginia during college - Hampton Coliseum (Formerly the Warlocks shows!) DC, MD, NC, Etc. I started late, '86, never got to triple digits, but many of the best times of my life! Seeing them in CA was extra special, without a doubt. And I happened (?) to be visiting SF when Jerry died and attended his memorial, which was overwhelming, and really a sad privilege... PEACE
me too-they opened with Bertha-I was so happy, and they gave everyone a rose...
Kind of weird to think the next time we get a new Dead video, it will be 2020. Personally I think that Throwing Stones has some of the Dead's best lyrics, 87, I was only 6 and had no idea who this band was, now I can't get enough of this band. I hope 2020 is good for all of you, 2019 was probably the best year of my life, so...
Well man, 2019 was the worst year of my life. But, I still love the Dead, love this song, and probably love you too.
@@Wayzor_ truth brother.
Haha, as all hell is breaking loose in mid 2020, I searched RUclips for Throwing Stones as the song is echoing in my mind as I watch news coverage of the riots. Yeah, 2020 is not turning out to be great for many.
So the kids, they dance, they shake their bones
And the politicians throwing stones
Singing ashes, ashes, all fall down
Ashes, ashes, all fall down....
It wasn't. 2020 kinda sucked
@@steveharris1941 onto 2021
Wow, one of the better Throwing Stones I've seen!
Yes
I'm weeping.. my face melted. Finally. Finally got it..
This song truly was ahead of its time.
🌍
Timeless. I will certainly enjoy this till I take my last breath, I can see no reason why it won't hold up for 222 years +
Makes as much sense now as it did then
Gotta love these guys. No showboating just playing music
That Alembic he's playing sure doesn't make it harder ;)
I have to say I agree expect for Bobby and that's completely to be expected. It was generally either him or Jerry that the band had eyes on and played to them. Watching body language etc. But Bobby even admits he kinda leaves his real persona behind and during a show a sort of mythical superhero takes over. Well the music leads them, but yeah however one sees it, it's pure 🪄✨
One of my favorites. Everybody falls down on the all fall down. Been fallin down with this song since 73?
Deep down we all want to be able to dress like Bobby.
Not me! 🙈
@@staggerlee4979 horseshit
But only the bold attempt it... Not I said this fly.. Lol
its not that hard to do
Tee shirt and jeans? My usual attire.
Now usually Bobby wears shorts. I don't do shorts.
But in this video he dresses like I do every day
Highly underrated song!!
Don’t ya just love how Jerry’s just playing so nonchalantly with his glasses half way down his nose???? So cool!!!!!
I do!
That's to keep the lenses at his focal point. His vision would otherwise go either blurry, or he would see double. He definitely would not wear them if his eyes could focus properly. It's typical of aging and will eventually affect most of us. That said, he was one hell of a musician.
Hearing jerry noodle that mixolydian scale makes my day so much better
Funny, I have been playing guiar along with Jerry for so many years and it wasn't until I discovered the Mixolydian scales that I really got it. No one can make magic the way he did, but I can get a little closer now.
mixo noodles make the world go round!
@@ebitdareadthebook1535 Bobby sure loves those 🍜..
Thank God.. GO BOBBY
I love everything Jerry did then & now still ! It makes him alive again which I love to watch ! I feel so good most of the time but when it’s a sad song I cry ❤️❤️❤️☮️✌️🕊🌹🐰🥰😍😍🎶🎵
I agree with u Robert Vought when he takes off it’s just wonderful ! What a lost to us but I don’t like any females in the band ! It’s the Grateful Dead that we want to hear !
I love what Jerry is doing so much on the guitar. That gentle melody behind Bob singing so pretty. It’s just right and gloriously imperfectly perfect every time.
weirdly I think a lot of his best playing was on bobby's songs,. Maybe the fact that it wasn't something he directly created allowed him more creative freedom
I remember the first time I heard Throwing Stones and Touch of Grey at Madison Square Garden in Sept 1982. my 4th and 5th shows. great memories!
The solo was a confusing mess back then. It had no beauty to it. They converted it to Samson and Delilah shortly after the 7/3/84 Kansas City show but I haven't determined which show. This video has recharged me to use the archives to find the show when the solo became S & D because it turned this song into a masterpiece 🎧🎶🌈 😎
@@staggerlee4979 I'm a big fan of Throwing Stones, but an even bigger fan of Sampson and Delilah! Some of the S&D performances during the '70's were such absolute FIRE! Particularly the solos! And the drum intro was ALWAYS recognizable...man I love their rendition of that one!
I always listen to a show while I'm at work - last night I listened to the show on 5/15/70 from the Filmore East in New York. Rarely am I let down by a show but I was let down by this one. Lots of acoustic songs that just didn't have much direction...I bought the show from Itunes as one of their "Road Trips" series. There's one song where Bob is just trying his best to literally SCREAM every single word!! Pass on that one if you happen to come by it...one of their worst shows I've ever heard from a normally AMAZING era for the Dead!!
@@staggerlee4979 Jesus...here it is! Listen at your precaution to how Bob just absolutely SCREAMS AND YELLS this version of Minglewood Blues....I'm curious as to your take on it, Stagger Lee...

@@wangson
That's terrifying!!! I have a few theories about what Bob was on at the time. None of them good. 😖
I was with Bobby when he was writing down this song on a napkin & he gave it to me which I still have all faded out by now of course !
Great clean rendition.
The darkness never leaves some mens eyes
Leave this place an empty stone
I just LOVE how the audience is just dancing. No rhythm just moving. Awesome!!!!
Except for that ONE poor kid 😂 he's probably wanting to shake those bones but just can't get outta his mind. I'm sure he came into his own just fine surrounded by good folks though!
I don't know if you it or not, so I'm sharing. It's great to listen to music esp the dead with eyes closed. I spent half the shows with eyes closed. 30 plus with eyes closed. At this point my feet hands are some instrument n keeping beat in my head when sitting. Lol I can't help it. Love the dead since 18 but closing eyes a friend told me around 6 yrs later. N I'm grey n a grandma lol
"It's all too clear we're on our own"
Can’t say how much this is it today. Hitting the Mark wow!
Goosebumps every time
My favorite version of this song. Love this show.
9.9.87 Providence RI is top contender too...
One of my all time favorite songs.
Great performance...... So many gems from 1987....
2:00 Jerry looks at Brent. Priceless
My all time favorite. This song would always light the fire in Bobby when played live, and the crowd could respond back to the Dead when they went into NFA...
damn, they're all killing it but the interplay between jerry and phil in the solo is so killer
This song is needed all day everyday
I got on the bus in 1986. At Dead and Dylan, Anaheim Stadium 1987, I remember hearing but I wasn't yet completely knowledgeable about the music. I remember everyone singing to Ashes to ashes all fall down.. So later that day, while tripping balls, telling a friend, I really liked that one earlier, Ashes to ashes. Lol
That day I barely remember except two things-- it was broiling hot all day and that I had the time of my life. Dead and Dylan,?.How could you not? Lol
Was there. AWESOME. THE SHOWS IN VENTURA WERE MUCH MORE INTAMENT. NEVER SAW A BAD ONE
Love the Jerry solo here
This VHS was one of my early forays into Deaddom
I love this song so much!
Love this tune, Jerry's solo sounds very similar to Samson and Delilah
It's been Samson and Delilah since the summer or fall of 84.
As soon as I read this comment I heard the S&D lick haha.
I miss them all the boys are loved
Full of hope, full of grace.🌎
Although, the darkness never goes from some wo/man's eyes...
Always one of my favorites
Perfect November 2020 song- thank you Bobby!
Bravo!!!
WE ARE ON OUR OWN!!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE THE GRATEFUL DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rip ram dass
Indeed. Any word on his memorial service?
yup :'(
who?
@@CrimsonJam Wow. OK... Ram Dass was born Richard Alpert. He taught with Tim Leary at Harvard and both were tossed out for giving graduate students psychedelics in their psychiatric research program. Check out the double blind study with liturgical students. Half got psilocybin, half a placebo. In a church. Guess who saw God? He then went to India, where he met Bhagavan Dass, who turned him on to his guru, Neem Karoli Baba. Then he took up the spiritual path, wrote the classic BE HERE NOW, among many other works. Super high guy. Dig him.
be here now Richard alpert ram dass
What insight✴
This night was the most psychedelic show in my life, and so honored to be on the Balloon Crew! Thanks Loves
Jerry and the Wolf playing always makes me smile...
Keep smiling!🙏😎💜☮️♎♾️
Amazing
And he still came back ready to perform
Great take of this tune, Thank you !
2022 still yep. It’s all to clear…
I could watch Jerry’s fingers play those chords all day
Bobby's vocals on point
Rudy's looking for a fight . How contrite. As the yrs pass this song has grown more in relevance. Started listening to The Dead in 83. Blessed to Have witnessed a handful of shows. Be Kind to one another. We Will Suvive. We Will Get By
THANK YOU!!!
Thanksss...
bobby ! the dead has a song for every occasion !
My first album was "In the Dark". I loved this song as a kid. Still do. THere's something interesting to me about people who were realizing things we were going to have to deal with. Especially those who weren't scientists. I dont' know
We are here, we are on our own.
Says it all I guess
‘87? Wow! I still can’t believe it. My first New Years
I've lived for many a year like it was COVID, but worse. But hey, so glad you could join my little party!! Apparently many did not last long.
Bobby looking so cute and sounds great.
An upbeat way to begin my Monday at work
And he's still performing
The crowd shots remind me of my early 20's.
😢
As a 24 year old I'm praying for it to just slow down
I needed this right now
Thanks Bib
Excellent! Jerry just looking as high as usual 😂 beautiful!
He is supposedly sober during these years, but I have to imagine after seeing him in multiple 87-90 years when him and Brent are ripping it's hard to believe they both aren't "up and down and all over in the best possible way" Brent apparently egged on Jerry to use. How true this is idk. And
Apparently Brent's death was when Jerry started playing like he did in the early to mid 80's god for some of the shows that truly were terrible they more than make up for it with magic like this. I'd love just one of these 87-90 rippers to shake me bones like crazy to "love and in person" instead of watching years later. However I'll gladly take this however I can get it ✌️😉🙃
Loved that shirt Babs is wearing
God bless the grateful dead ❤️🙏🤙
We are truly on our own, but that also means we can make things better together.
this is so goooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Gracias.
*Garcia
I think this is Jerry’s best upbeat solo
This is how I remember Bobby in my residual memory.
4:46 encapsulates everything about a Dead show 💯😎🍻🎄
The future's here, we are on our own. Never more relevant than now...
my first new years show
The grateful dead keep following me...
This and dire wolf are so darn cheerful.
Maybe a little overplayed, But such a great tune! So cool how a song with such dark lyrics could be so danceable.
I was backstage during the 80 s plus I ran the parties if I was close enough to b with them but then they paid for me & my niece to come to California ! Wow what a time plus we got to stay for 2 more weeks with a friend I met at the Lewiston Maine outdoor show !
Yep!!! The hunt begins!!!
Cool shots of the crowd
Cool 🌅
#IWasThere!
More Dead...less War
Ashes to ashes...
I miss the crazy dead hippie dancers. They were awesome. Absolutely no rhythm but loving it baby
no rythm? wtf?
Jerry feeding the hippies the food they need to live and dance..dance hippies ..
The grateful dead keep following me
I finally got to see them. It was grate. But there is this , Bruce Honrsby was there. I met him later. That is one fine man!
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN BARLOW!
thats a sick line jerry does 6:29-6:30 just butter to my ears
There are jams and then there are jams.
Happy new year freaks!
Throwing Stones was the highlight of the last show in Chicago w/ Trey. Was praying they didn't play it the night before as I was driving there.
Absolutely - they killed it. And it was so cool seeing Trey and Bob together for this one.
I WAS THERE 👊🙏
hot damn!
