- While pretty good, this one was the worst out of the 4 versions that were played (Deer Creek the best, followed by Oakland and Albany)...Just wrong place and wrong time for this bustout in my opinion
Видеоклипы
absolutely not the wrong place or time for the bust out...it was perfect
The absurdity of Bruce Hornsby seriously playing accordion to Casey Jones here is delicious.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A GRATEFUL DEAD CONCERT!!!!!!
In shorts nonetheless
Always nice to have a knowledgeable camera operator! Love the way he covered the solo section, and how he knew it was Bob who played through the verse, then over to Jerry for the chorus! Well done!
This was my first ever show, and as much as I am remiss to admit I came to hear Steve Miller play and this was the only dead song I recognized at the time, this show forever changed me as a human being. We got caught in ugly DC traffic on the way to the show and actually missed Steve Miller and Cold Rain & Snow, but was there for the rest of the show. I got wrapped up in the energy and collective spirit of the crowd and have been a serious dead fan ever since! I miss those free spirited days, it was truly a magical time and place for me.
I heard them perform this during their Soundcheck while I was standing outside of RFK Stadium and then I got to see them perform it that night. So twice in one day was a Miracle IMO! Great show!
+TheConcertMan Yup. It was a very pretty summer afternoon if I recall. Oh, and a nightmare to leave.
I was standing real close to ya.
I heard them perform this during soundcheck that day and then I was in about row 10 and got to see them perform it. A grateful experience that I will never forget. Thanks for sharing!
I was there. The whole stadium went NUTS! Maybe not the best but it was still glorious!
Lived it and loved it...20 years old and on Tour.. Had heard the train Whistle in Buffalo and Philly and heard Casey Jones at sound Check while cruising the lot in DC- ( my home venue!!).. Jumped the fence to the field and got up front...Was just hitting terminal velocity when this happened.. went into Orbit and stayed there.... DC was the place for this...DC was their San Fran of the East Coast--
i got on the field during Steve Miller and went back up to my seat 20 min or so before this song. I almost dumped my bladder when the airhorn blew before this song. ahhhh the memories!!!!
I got a *ahem* "late start" and when I heard the first hints of Casey still jumbled in Space, I turned to a friend to say I told you so, he still didn't believe it, I looked back just in time to hear that train horn so loud. I laughed as the bright, single beam of white light shot out of the darkness piercing my eyes on the lower level directly across. The outline of the tunnel glowing from the circle truss upstage, the horn again.....louder, thats when I began peaking. So much fun.
Was gratefully at RFK 1992 when the Dead played Casey Jones after a 15 year hiatus! It was amazing 🙏😇🤗🦋❤️❣️
Yes sir, we all heard the rumors in the parking lot all day that they were going to break it out..graduation gift 8 shows that summer and loved every GD min..they can never take the memories
And Bruce was whacked out of his head
The whole stadium was moving up and down like an earthquake. You could even feel it through that padding they had on the floors. People power like I've never experienced before.
Right! Everyone was enthralled! God I miss Jerry
It was awesome and I was mentally filling out a last will & testimony due to it!
Wait you were there?!?
@@hlbaum I felt that
I remember looking back from the floor up front . and seeing the passing of the glow rope that was being passed around the upper deck. More stories than that to tell. 🙋💌🌌
I was at this! The horns that Bill and Mickey brought out had people nuts, THEN, this!! Everyone lost it!! I was 4th row!
No shit...I "somehow" wound up backstage met Bruce and Sat on a roadie case about 10 ft from garcia and witnessed this...glorious!
Stadium shook like an earthquake that day. Even through the padding on the floor section. Couldn't hear the band for the cheers at first!
I was there. We love you Jerry!
Ughhh,in My Opinion and you uploaded thisss??? Love fa the Grateful Dead,Simple,Yet,Pure... Boom.
Never EVER a wrong time for Casey Jones. 😚
never saw RFK shake and rock like that in years of shows. Literally like a mild earthquake. Train whistle began some serious power chords capped with "Baba O riley"
Only thing more epic at RFK in the 90's was the great electrical storm of 94. It was bad - 3 heads were struck by lightning.
It was the perfect time and place to bring it back, mainly because I was there!
My first show--thanks for posting!
Best memory ever
What a great day I was lucky enough to be there with my late cousin
I was at this concert, great time!!!!
This video is wonderful . Ive owend a copy of this show since around 1995 , thanks to my friend from Salt lake , Matt H whom invited me to see 2 shows there in Feb 1995 . Great to see the band at RFK in 1992 doing this - out of space .....
I was at this show. First show for the Dead (only ended up going to Buckeye Lake later this same tour for 2 total) ever and only the 4th concert I'd ever been to (Pink Floyd, Metallica, Dio).
My how much has changed in the intervailing years.
i met Jerry and Bob hours earlier!!!!! Day I will never forget!!!!
Oh HELLs yeah, my hometown venue and sight of first dead show but I can't believe I missed this one!
The "train" at the beginning was Steve Miller hitting the huge airhorn announcing that RFK was about to take the fuck off. That was one fucking rocking show! I was walking on air!
It was amazing was there with old friends 🧡
At the sound of the horns I jumped in,crowd parted, like the see.... All looked out...dew drop... Boom...In the stadium,Excellent Show!!!
I was there, RFK was rocking, awesome show!!
A great moment live, I wish I knew the significance at the time, but figured it out pretty quickly that there was something special in the air. That horn was alarming at first.
This was my first show....its an unbelievable experience.........
My first show too
I was there!!! Thanks for posting!!!!
Amazing night like every show
My first show. Everyone lost their minds at that whistle
gotta love the horn thingy.....watch your speed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was there!!!
The train horn blew loud as hell...coming out of space, there was the hint of the song with that sound...and then.. the Fat Man stepped up and let her rip!!!! So fun!
The year before , driving back to Ct. from RFK , I predicted the return of Casey , even predicting the venue and exact point of the show they'd play it . Sometimes , you'd just get THAT tuned in to the band....
wish I could see bertha from that show .
was my first show .
I has a friend actually sleep through this entire song, including the loud-as-all-get-out train whistles!!
i was there they played with steve miller for throwin sones n baba orily /tomor never knows i remember bobby jumping up n down like pete towsend during baba n looking over at steve n jerry with everyone smiling........i miss those summer tours on the east coast first show hershey 85 last shows with jerry the last 2 in chicago 50 inbetw never had a bad time at a show jerry n the boys changed my life.........wish everyone could of seen what i seen GOD BLESS THE GRATEFUL DEAD
i being a well versed dead head thought this was an amazing moment.
I can't remember any other shows I attended where everyone in attendance knew a song.
the weekend warriors and tour heads alike.
it was high energy
I was there and remember it the same way. It was my 2nd show.
The First one is always the best one bro.... Even when it isn't!!! Those horns were blowing during space for months prior to the bust out...
this is something I will never forget....After buying a bunk tick... I stood at the gates with heads alike listenin in.....Intermission.......WONNKWONNNK I swear bein outside hearin that Casey, we made way for 'em comin thru....We wer'ent inside but we really were there....That train still haunts me in the best way....
I saw this show
My wife and I had General Admission for this show, and we were at the roll-up gates when they were soundchecking--they did Baba O'reilly/Tomorrow Never Knows (the encore that night) then did Casey Jones. As the gates rolled up my wife did an Indianna Jones roll-under and we tore ass running to make it to the front of the stage. Ah memories....
Thank you
Standing next to Hornsby, poor old Jerry looks like a garden gnome
This was one of the very few highlights of the '90's.That horn sound that billy made came from some type of special fire engine that the band was going to drop off at the smithsonian. The band for some unknown reason liked to play at r.f.k the sound for the most part was horrendous The last time i saw the band was here as well and the cooler thing about that show was garcia coming out to play dylan's encores,which i think were It takes alot to laugh,rainy day women.
10 year rebirth of Casey Jones! Where is the footage leading up to this point. The horns were blaring and it literally sounded like a train was running right through the center of RFK and then BAM its CASEY JONES!!! we all went nuts.. all 80,000 of us ;)
The horns at the beginning were EPIC. The place went nuts.
The train horn was insane.
I was there for this, and I disagree. I was at Deer Freak and Albany and this was the best of the 3.
agree with Jim Lind - for 1992 Boys sound tight, etc.
You're thinking of a DR. John song, bro. This is pretty sweet if you ask me and I was somehow there at the age of 2 years old. #w00kparents
BRUCE...
What a helluva night that was!
I remember it being good. I was there of course.
I believe that was Mickey Hart blowing the train horn. They had been playing with them during drums and space just a few minutes before. They were some contraption worn around their neck like a chest plate. I recall them running around the stage playing them at least one other time, might have been at Giant, Star Lake or Buckeye Lake. Brightman would light up only one light on the stage as if a train were approaching.
@coyote023 Oh, coyote...I don't know anything for *certain*, of course, it was just the change I saw in Jerry's demeanor and the quality of his playing around this time. Just a year before he had been practically dancing on the stage, smiling and playing those amazing licks we all knew and loved. On this tour, *that* Jerry was gone. I remember him practically running off the stage in Star Lake. I think we both know why... No judgements, just happy memories of an amazing man.
@clm802 Brother I had bought a bunk ticket that day as well...I remember preaching about peace and love, and the lack of it,on top of a box,...granted I know theres always a few bad apples in an orchard...Regardless , I do remember the horns blasting off and we all ran to the gates and I swear it was a defining moment in my memories of the Dead. I swear it was as if even on the outside we were inside.I swerar that was a moment I'll always cherish...We love you Jerry and all other Heads
Steve Miller jam w/ the Dead is that available?
@hippycouple2 They first broke out Casey Jones at RFK, I was there. They teased with it for weeks before but it was at RFK.
@rvg4951 your right it was at Gaints @titodead thanks for the grate videos, but you had to there, I don't think your there, I was at Deer creek eight days after this show and RFK was way more fun and was very well recieved
6-20 (Saturday) Yeah I luckily saw this song 5 times and its not as good as some but then agian those aren't on video much less with Bruce too!
Augy San Diego
perfect!
@guidi2005 Yes, I was there too., The tease that you mentioned, was that the train horn which Billy was playing with at Buffalo and Giants? I believe that it was 120th anniversery of the train wreak which inspired the folk song Casey Jones which inspired the cocaine version which Robert Hunter wrote. The lunar eclipse was at Giants, not Casey Jones.
The train horn was WAAAAYYYY louder in person. The audio on this video doesn't do it justice.
I saw them play this in Albany on 3-27-93.
I was there with my cast off my leg one day and dancin. Tommorow never knows/ Baba O reilly!!!
Shorts and the accordion? We have our winner!
Jerry decked out in his white sneakers and long pants even though it was easily 100 degrees on the grass.I think the last casey jones i caught was merriweather post in '84 and i think on that nite it had been a long time since the last one.
I didn't know what was going on when the train horns went off. On the screens above the stage, billy and Mickey had head phones on because it was so loud
@JoshuaTaylor The could be a million reasons but to run off to get high was not one of them .With persian you do not have to run you can walk , it is not like a freebase jones where it is a hurry.
Jerry sings GREAT here
Sorry Nasa says June 15,1992 was the eclipse at Giants Stadium
Right on.. We got in went to the rail.. everyone leaped.. security grabbed a few.. no security left.. Over We went.. had been following all tour.. heard the Train whistle at Spectrum and Buffalo.. heard it here at My Home venue and then they busted out casey jones...Great night... had a whole group of local buddies and My Tour buddies.. everyone indulged..Thought a real train was coming this night.. Whoooo Whoooo
abSALUUUTE!!!!!
I thought it was a good break out point after the '84 Merriweather one.
looks like Jerry is wearing JNCOs
Couldn't disagree with you more, Tito. The boys had been soundchecking Casey Jones throughout the tour killing us with anticipation as to when we were actually gonna get the pay off. RFK was a great scene on a beautiful day in '92 as we, once again, heard the band soundcheck Casey Jones. The performance that night was excellent and the ravenous crowd was rewarded with a perfect bust out in a perfect spot complete with locomotive horn. Quite frankly, the boys nail this version.
I thought it was solid...😎👍
Agreed! We heard them check it in Buffalo to no avail..
god i miss 1992
🚂🚂🚂
This couldn't have been RFK. It was demolished 1989. Can someone please tell me where this is
I don't know, I think you ALL are being WAY TOO FUCKING CRITICAL. I thought it was a VERY WELL DONE performance. I actually liked the accordian. It brings and adds a new dimension. VERY underrated. Regardless, thanks for posting...😎👍
@icenine2 Whaaat? I am astronomically ignorant agreed but this sounds too much like hippie (takes one to know one) hoo-ha give me a link to check that out. I loved Steve Miller on "throwing stones/NFA"
I didn't know wha
Opinions are like buttholes. Everyone has one. In my opinion and apparently the bands opinion this was the perfect place to bust out Casey Jones. And this version rocked!
@MegaHihihi111 .....hey i know it dont mix well but it was a fun night 4 me and thats all that matters....u where in grade scholl when this show went down ...so i highley!!!1dought u know wft u are talking about lil girl
Even though I saw The Dead 84 times between '84 thru '93, this was my only stadium show. Meh. Don't get me wrong, it was QUITE a spectacle, with the lights and lasers and screens and all of that... But, it was clear that Jerry was back on the "H" at this time... He couldn't wait to get off of the stage. (Same with Star Lake two nights later..) Still, it was a good show. The rest of the band was in fine form, the space was a real cluster-F, but without Jerry in good health, it was just OK.
if you could take a thumb nail to jerry
JFK was demolished, not RFK.
A don doesn't wear shorts
i was outside havin have one hell of a trip and smokin crack lol....lol fun times........ rip jerry;)
YESS I .... Dude Man Look I Up An Down As I Show He My Mail order Ticket,All Glittery ;) Ticket Mann Say "GO!" I Run....Thru The Hall An Down The Stadium Steps An Drop Like Dew... Into The Crowd From The Balcony,IFAMILY
😆…Jerry tried….just not the gusto of the 70’s.

Without the space intro this is TERRIBLE!!!!
No, No ,no, No!!!!! You have to include the Space into Oh Shenandoah then this !!!!!
Please delete this video!
Mickey came out with air horns strapped to him
