We have a great second set for your Labor Day weekend enjoyment! This one is from the Greek Theater on August 19, 1989. This one certainly goes against the old thought that the band didn't really jam it out at the Greek.. We start with a fine 'China>Rider'.. the transition really catches fire! A wonderful opener, which then leads right into 'Playin' In the Band'.. the jamming here into a long, pretty, 'Uncle John's' is quite exploratory. Always a delight, this version of 'Uncle John's' is pretty straight-ahead but nicely paced and sung. The transition into Drums>Space is quite well done. Space is quite exploratory and the accounts which I read say that Candace's lights and effects sync'd quite well to create the spaceship effect :)
The transition into a smoking 'Other One' is on point, including a great Phil bomb. Healy does his effects on Weir's voice but they mostly work here. This is a great Other One! It leads to an explosive finish!
In the ballad slot, Jerry brings out August West.. enough said.. they fly away beautifully.
They close the set with a spirited 'Not Fade Away', then return for a rare 'Foolish Heart' encore. Not a throwaway :)

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Ed Pod for Labor Day Weekend, September 3rd, 2021. |
| 0:04.9 | So glad you could pick us up this week. This week we're going to bring you a great second set |
| 0:09.2 | on the Greek theater at the University of California and Berkeley on August 19th, 1989. |
| 0:15.2 | This is a really fun second set. The band's really jammed it out here. I think you'll enjoy it. |
| 0:19.3 | It starts out with a great China rider. There's some real, some excellent jamming, especially in the |
| 0:23.9 | transitioning here that you'll really like. Playing in the band follows. The highlight of this one |
| 0:30.4 | is the transition into Uncle John's band. It's a nice long Uncle John's band going into drums and |
| 0:35.4 | space. Then a insane other one. So check out the end of space into that other one, which is really |
| 0:42.4 | out there. I think you'll really enjoy it. A nice warfare at follows. Then not fade away to close |
| 0:47.2 | the set. And they do are rare. Foolish heart encore, which Jerry does quite well. I think you'll |
| 0:52.7 | enjoy it. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Be safe, everybody. Thanks for picking us up and for |
| 0:58.1 | your support of the DeadPod. I couldn't do it without you. As always, thanks a lot for picking us |
| 1:04.0 | up. We'll see you back here next week. This is a professor, you're listening to The DeadPod. |
| 8:52.7 | Don't miss me when I'm gone. |
| 9:02.7 | Don't miss me when I'm gone. |
| 9:10.7 | Don't miss your baby. Don't roll it in your own. |
| 9:20.7 | Don't miss me when I'm gone. |
| 9:30.7 | Don't miss my baby. |
| 9:38.7 | My mind was wondering like a high piece in the room. |
| 10:38.7 | My mind was wondering like a high piece in the room. |
| 10:48.7 | My mind was wondering like a high piece in the room. |
