he
Commemorative Pin ( Pinback / Badge ) representing the
" Last & Final ! " Grateful Dead Shows !! ( Ever ! ) .... in Seattle !!! - May '95 - ' The Wizard Oz Oz !!!! ' ... " The Dead In The Emerald City !!!!!  As this May '95 Dead-Run in " The Emerald City ! " on May 24th, 25th & 26th ( 5/24/95 > 5/25/95 > 5/26/95 ) was Only the " 2nd Return "
of The Grateful Dead !! - to Seattle !!! - ( with the '94 Summer Tour ( 6/13/94 & 6/14/94 ) being the ' Only ' Other-One ! )
... Since '83 !!!
Playyyyin' ... Plaayin' under-the Space~Needle !!... Ha !  Well, almost - not quite - as the Needle itself is just a few blocks down the road.  I always thought it would have been just Righteous ! if you could actually ' See ' the Needle behind the stage from inside - or at least from somewhere ! while the Boys were Rockin' !!  Well, then again - maybe you could see it from somewhere up-high on the benches in the top of the Stadium ? ... but, not for me & my ( usual ) motley-crew - as we opted ( obviously ... ) for the Floor ! ... & Way-Close-Up !! ( pretty-easy too ... on the West ( Left ! ) Coast !! ) - right on Both !! the " Phil-Zone Side !! " & ( naturally-too ... ) the " Jerry-Side !!! " - being that this was a generous ( & maybe-even ( likely ? ) unprecedented ?? ) 3-Show !!! Run ... in the now ( & Finally ! ) " Good Ol' !! ... Emerald City !!! ".
A nothing-short of " Glorious ! " Dead-Stand for all who attended These-Shows ! - and/or have the Tapes !! ( or CD's, ha ! ) ... as the Band just ' Blissfully ! ' delivered what many Dead Fans commonly consider to be their Last " Great !!! " Show too !  The 3rd Night ! of this run, on 5/26/95 ... which indeed was also a ' Benefit Concert ' for the " Rex Foundation ! ".  As Anyone who caught this '95 Seattle G.D. " Last-Stand ! " ... likely had an Amazing-Time ! too, as the Entire-Scene was indeed just ' Excellent ' !  Keeping well-in-mind ( comparatively ) that this Early-Mid '90's Era was most-definitely at the final ' height ' of the Grateful Dead Show " Scene " - and Anybody who caught these Seattle Shows likely had a Totally ! " Peaceful & Fun !! " Dead-Shows Experience ... " Grate ! " Times !! - with even yes - that's right ... some ' Great-Weather ! ' too !! - Ha !  Even some serious Sunshine ! too ( at times, at least ), during this Late-May '95 time that we are talking about here in the beloved Pacific Northwest !!  Well, I was almost ! perfect on these - as I saw the 6/25/95 & 6/26/95 Shows ( as 2 out of 3 ain't bad ), with the unfortunate exception of missing the 5/24/95 Opening-Night ! - which, as I heard later on ... even started prior with a " Tough Mama !! " Soundcheck !!! - by Garcia & Co. !??!  Ooooohhh, as I distinctly remembering ' cringing ' just a bit when I heard that news - since I missed it !  Pretty-Hot ! ... indeed for Garcia to pull the string on That-One !?! - Love-It !  It should most-definitely ( really ! ) be noted here too - that this " Scarlet > Fire !!!!! > Playin' > Uncle John's !!!! " Set II segment on 5/26/95 ( " The Last Dead-Show ' Ever ! ' in Seattle !! ) was ... " Exceptionally-Hot !!! " - Extended ! - Jammed-Out ! in ' Mind-Melting ' Fashion !!  And, especially on the Scarlet > Fire ! " Segue-Transition !! ".  But, I don't want to sit here & ' preach to the choir ' here ... as You ! & Yours ! were probably down there on the Floor ! too - Hearing ( & Seeing ! ) this Live-Dead " Magic !!! " - I mean ... the ' Kind ' where Phil ! is Giddy & Smiling ! to the Crowd down on the Floor !!  What " Grate-Times ! " indeed, and some serious " Grateful Dead in Seattle !! " Rock 'n Roll History ! here too.  And, being " 1995 " & all ... on " Dead-Tour ! " - I could have just ' sworn ' that I saw " The Cowardly Lion " just Boogying-Down ! & also Spinning-Around ! ( & Around !! ) with Dorothy !!! down there on that Floor too ! - Ha !!  As you just sure can't-beat a " Wizard Of Oz ! " Pin - to so-proudly represent the " Last & Final " Dead-Shows ! - in Seattle !! ... " The Dead In The Emerald City ! " - for ' The Last-Time ' ... Enjoy !!!!!
