Forum MVP gr8fulpair Posted December 9, 2009 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Not attending that show, but had to chime in about my sentiments for Hampton. Site of my first Dead shows in March of '85. Used to look forward to 3 shows at Hampton every spring - that while attending App. State in Boone, NC. Spent many nights in that parking lot, had many adventures in that parking lot...... remember it being a bitch to get to, but have much love for it. Left that lot one night after a show to drive back to NC and drove about 1.5hrs north before realizing we were going the wrong way, stupid stoned college students..aaaahhhhhh.

That 3/22/85 Hampton show was Bach's 300 birthday, we were there also and I remember a ballon floating around the audience and someone said "Don't touch it , it has the plague" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember not knowing why everyone was going crazy, but getting chill bumps from the energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then in 1988 we got the To Lay Me Down and Ballad of a Thin Man. 1985 opened with Alabama> Greatest Story..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP gr8fulpair Posted December 15, 2009 Forum MVP Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I caught 85, 86, 87 in Hampton before moving out west for a few years. Feb of 08 DSO played the two 3/87 shows back to back in Asheville, NC and me and my brother (we've seen all our shows together) called the show early into the Rooster. Was a real treat to get the second show the next night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
